As parents, we always hope to develop character traits in our children that will enhance their success in life. When our daughter Meegan, the eldest of five children, lost her front tooth at the age of six, we found the following note wrapped around the tiny tooth.
Der Tooth Fairy，
Pleze leve me yor majik wand(杖). I want to be a tooth fairy, too.
Luv Meegan
Recognizing potential leadership skills, precious opportunity and the teachable moment, the “Tooth Fairy” left the following note for little Meegan:
Dear Meegan,
I have worked hard to be a good Tooth Fairy and I love my job. You are too young for the job just now, so I cannot give you my wand. But there are some things that you can start to do to prepare yourself for the job:
1) Always do your best in every job that you do.
2) Treat all people as you wish to be treated.
3) Be kind and helpful to others.
4) Always listen carefully whenever people speak to you. I will interview you one day when you are older and ready for the job.
Good Luck, Meegan!
The Tooth Fairy

Her character, her strength and her leadership skills grew right along with her. After graduating magna cum laude (以优秀成绩) from college, Meegan accepted a challenging management position. She excelled, and by age 27, she was the top manager of the company.
One day Meegan and I were talking about her success. She told me that the company president had once asked her what influences had motivated her toward success.
“What did you tell him?” I asked.
She replied, “My parents, my teacher and my friends. And, of course, the Tooth Fairy!”

Could the next Ernest Hemingway or Jane Austen be a well-engineered AI software program? It’s a question becoming increasingly pressing as machine language-learning software continues to evolve.
Much of this is just nerves. Today’s AI creative writing programs are not yet at a stage of development where they pose a serious threat to Colleen Hoover or Charles Dickens. But while attention continues to focus on the possibility of a blanket takeover of human literature by AI, far less consideration has been given to the prospect of AI co-working with humans.
Earlier this month, American sci-fi writer Ken Liu, who had been awarded Hugo and Nebula to his name, joined 12 other professional authors for a writing workshop on Google’s Wordcraft. This AI tool, a language generating model, is not yet publicly available but is advertised as an AI-powered writing assistant that can, when given the right instruction from the writer, provide helpful descriptions, create lists of objects or emotional states, and even brainstorm ideas.
The writers at the workshop, however, emerged with mixed reports. “Wordcraft is too sensible. Wow!” Robin Sloan wrote. “But ‘sensible’ is another word for predictable, overused and boring. My intention here is to produce something unexpected.”
I’m unconvinced that writers awarded the Nobel Prize have much to fear from AI. Their work, and that of countless other novelists, short story writers, dramatists and poets, is too particular, too beautifully unique. Even if a model learned what they had done in the past, it would not be able to predict where their creativity might take them in the future. But for authors who write following a pattern, AI might step in, first as assistants before some day to authorship.
Production-line novels are nothing new. In the 1970s, Barbara Cartland, who wrote more than 723 books in her lifetime, many of which are romance bestsellers, would read her novels for her secretary to type up at the remarkable rate of roughly seven chapters a week. But already machine has replaced the secretary’s role. Perhaps creative writing software isn’t that far from replacing the Mrs. Cartlands of today.
8. Which aspect of AI calls for more attention?
A. Its damage to our nerves.
B. Its progress in literary studies.
C. Its cooperation with humans.
D. Its influence on human literature.
9. What can we learn about Wordcraft from the text?
A. It generates novels automatically.
B. It outperforms professional writers.
C. Its works receive praises from the public.
D. Its works bear similarity to existing ones.
10. What can writers do to avoid the threat from AI?
A. Increase writing speed.
B. Use diverse resources.
C. Produce creative works.
D. Follow the latest patterns.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Will AI Replace Human Writers?
B. AI Warns Mrs. Cartlands of Today
C. Is Writing Running into a New Era?
D. Word craft Lies at the Center of Debate
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是本月早些时候，曾获得雨果奖和星云奖的美国科幻作家Ken Liu与其他12位专业作家一起参加了一个谷歌的Wordcraft写作研讨会，这是一款人工智能写作助手，文章主要探讨了人工智能是否会取代人类的作家。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“But while attention continues to focus on the possibility of a blanket takeover of human literature by AI, far less consideration has been given to the prospect of Al co-working with humans.(但是，当我们继续关注人工智能全面接管人类文学的可能性时，人们对人工智能与人类合作的前景的考虑要少得多。)”可知，人工智能与人类的合作更值得关注，故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的““Wordcraft is too sensible. Wow!” Robin Sloan wrote. “But ‘sensible’ is another word for predictable, overused and boring. My intention here is to produce something unexpected.”(Word craft太明智了。哇！但“明智”是可预测、过度使用和无聊的另一个词。我的目的是创造一些意想不到的东西。”)”可知，Wordcraft的作品与现存作品有相似之处。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Their work, and that of countless other novelists, short story writers, dramatists and poets, is too particular, too beautifully unique. Even if a model learned what they had done in the past, it would not be able to predict where their creativity might take them in the future.(他们的作品，以及无数其他小说家、短篇小说作家、剧作家和诗人的作品，都太过独特，太过美好。即使一个模型了解了他们过去的行为，它也无法预测他们的创造力在未来会把他们带到哪里。)”可知，作家们可以通过创作有创意的作品来避免人工智能的威胁，故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Could the next Ernest Hemingway or Jane Austen be a well-engineered AI software program? It’s a question becoming increasingly pressing as machine language-learning software continues to evolve.(下一个Ernest Hemingway或Jane Austen会是一个精心设计的人工智能软件程序吗？随着机器语言学习软件的不断发展，这个问题变得越来越紧迫。)”和第二段的“Much of this is just nerves. Today’s AI creative writing programs are not yet at a stage of development where they pose a serious threat to Colleen Hoover or Charles Dickens.(这在很大程度上只是神经紧张。今天的人工智能创意写作程序还没有发展到对Colleen Hoover或Charles Dickens构成严重威胁的阶段。)”可知，本文主要探讨的是人工智能是否会取代人类的作家，因此最好的题目是A选项“Will AI Replace Human Writers?(人工智能会取代人类作家吗？)”，故选A。
D
Two separate research groups in the UK and Denmark have come up with the same idea for a study that could help save endangered species, and have gotten the same results. It involves sucking environmental DNA from the air that animals leave behind.
“We use a really small pump that pulls the air through, and we hope the DNA gets caught on the filter (过滤器),” said Elizabeth Clare, the lead researcher. “It’s a bit like making coffee. You make coffee by sucking water through a filter and leaving the coffee grounds behind. That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.”
Clare says the concept has been used for years in different ways. Scientists sample pathogens (病原体) from the air, which has been used to help track COVID-19. Environmental DNA can also be collected from water to help ease invasive species.
A big goal for both research teams with the new study is to be able to locate endangered species and help save them. It is important to note that this type of DNA sampling can only be picked up if a species is in the area, so if there were two of the same animal, scientists would not be able to tell which one the DNA came from.
Both research groups also reported certain DNA samples not showing up when they knew an animal had been in the area. They also can’t tell yet how long an animal’s DNA will stick around after it’s been in one area. Clare says she’d like to plan more researches to get these answers.
But one thing is for sure after conducting the study. Clare says she has a whole new perspective on taking a deep breath. “As you know, I’m walking through a jungle or the park or taking my dog for a walk or my kids out to play, and I take a deep breath; I think I just inhaled information about all the things that have been here before, and as a scientist, that’s exciting to think that the information that I’m trying to gather is literally hanging in front of me,” she said.
12. Why does the author mention coffee-making?
A. To show the function of a filter.
B. To illustrate how the idea works.
C. To compare two different methods.
D. To prove how simply DNA-sucking works.
13. What does the underlined phrase “the concept” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Detecting danger in the air.
B Protecting endangered animals.
C. Sucking DNA out of the air.
D. Collecting environmental samples.
14. What do we know about the new method of DNA sampling?
A. It distinguishes different DNAs.
B. It collects certain DNA within range.
C. It locates endangered species exactly.
D. It predicts the duration of animals’ stay.
15. What can we infer from Clare’s words in the last paragraph?
A. She breathes the air of hope for future studies.
B. She agrees with the benefits of deep breathing.
C. She adopts brand-new methods of purifying the air.
D. She finds inner peace by doing simple things in life.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。英国和丹麦的两个独立研究小组提出了从动物留下的空气中吸取环境DNA这一研究想法来帮助拯救濒危物种，并取得了相同的结果。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“You make coffee by sucking water through a filter and leaving the coffee grounds behind. That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.(煮咖啡的方法是用过滤器吸水，然后留下咖啡渣。这基本上就是我们正在做的；我们只是把空气吸进去，希望DNA能留下)”可推知，制作咖啡和过滤DNA有相同之处，所以文章提到制作咖啡是为了详细阐述用过滤器捕捉DNA这一研究想法是如何进行的。故选B。
【13题详解】
短语猜测题。分析文章结构，the concept所指代的内容在上文。根据上文中的“That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.(这基本上就是我们正在做的；我们只是把空气吸进去，希望DNA能留下)”可知，the concept指代从空气来吸取DNA这一研究想法。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It is important to note that this type of DNA sampling can only be picked up if a species is in the area, so if there were two of the same animal, scientists would not be able to tell which one the DNA came from.(需要注意的是，只有当一个物种在该地区时，才能进行这种类型的DNA采样，因此，如果有两种相同的动物，科学家将无法判断DNA来自哪一种)”可知，这种DNA采样的新方法可以收集可及范围内的特定DNA。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中Clare说的话“I think I just inhaled information about all the things that have been here before, and as a scientist, that’s exciting to think that the information that I’m trying to gather is literally hanging in front of me(我想我只是吸入了以前在这里发生过的所有事情的信息，作为一名科学家，想到我试图收集的信息就在我面前，真是令人兴奋)”推知，Clare认为这种研究方法是有希望的，即她呼吸着对未来研究充满希望的空气。故选A。

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。
Mental health matters. Many of us will experience a mental health issue in our lifetime. One of the most common is stress.____16____ However, too much stress over a long period of time can affect our mood, leaving us feeling tired and anxious. Stress can also cause physical symptoms, such as headaches, tension, and aches.
____17____ In fact, sometimes these low moods happen for no reason. If you find that you’re feeling low for a long period of time and don’t feel like you’re enjoying your usual activities, you may be experiencing depression.
Another common mental health problem is anxiety. Like stress, feeling anxious is a normal reaction to certain situations — such as taking a test, going to an interview, worrying about a loved one — but more severe anxiety can have a huge impact on daily life and is a long-term condition. ____18____
If you recognize any of the signs of a mental health issue, you should seek help from a professional. ____19____ There are also some things you can do to help yourself — talking to someone you trust, engaging in some exercise, spending time outside, getting more sleep — but it’s always best to have a chat with a doctor as well.
There are some more serious mental health disorders too, and it is important that these are diagnosed (诊断) properly. ____20____ After seeking the right help and support, you are likely to feel happy and balanced again.
A. Exercise can relieve depression, anxiety and stress.
B. It is a natural reaction to feel under pressure or threat.
C. Thinking positively is the key to lowering anxiety level.
D. We all suffer from a low mood by events in our lives sometimes.
E. There are plenty of options, from talking therapies (疗法) to medication.
F. In these cases, better talk to your medical team about the treatment.
G. Feeling anxious all the time makes it hard for you to relax or enjoy life.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. G 19. E 20. F

【18题详解】
根据前文“Like stress, feeling anxious is a normal reaction to certain situations — such as taking a test, going to an interview, worrying about a loved one — but more severe anxiety can have a huge impact on daily life and is a long-term condition.（像压力一样，感到焦虑是对某些情况的正常反应——比如参加考试、参加面试、担心所爱的人——但更严重的焦虑会对日常生活产生巨大影响，并且是一种长期的状况）”可知，本段讨论焦虑这一问题，说明严重的焦虑有负面影响，空处位于段尾，应该承接前文具体说明其负面影响。G项“Feeling anxious all the time makes it hard for you to relax or enjoy life.（一直感到焦虑会让你很难放松或享受生活）”符合语境。故选G。
【19题详解】
根据前文“If you recognize any of the signs of a mental health issue, you should seek help from a professional.（如果你意识到任何心理健康问题的迹象，你应该寻求专业人士的帮助）”可知，本段讨论如何应对心理健康问题，空处需承接前文，讨论专业人士会提供的解决方法。E项“There are plenty of options, from talking therapies (疗法) to medication.（有很多选择，从对话疗法到药物治疗）”符合语境，其中的“talking therapies (疗法) to medication”和前文的“a professional”语义相关。故选E。
【20题详解】

第二节 读后续写(满分 25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I looked up from my desk to see the teacher writing on the board: “Battle of the Books!” She smiled and said, “This time it’s a teamwork. You’re going to be in teams of two, and set a reading goal. Every team that meets their goal by the end of the month will get a prize!” The lunch bell sounded before she could explain any more rules.
As I gathered my things, Liya passed my desk and said, “Teammates?” Since Liya and I shared the same interest in graphic novel(漫画小说), and we took Hindi language class together, we teamed up automatically. I was both relieved and excited to have my team. Then we got to the cafeteria and quickly threw out a bunch of ideas of what to do at our table.
I looked to our third friend Kash, with whom the three of us always do stuff together, “Kash, do you have ideas for us?” “Why would I give you guys ideas?” he said gloomily(阴沉地). “I’ll save that for my team...whoever that is. Now I see how I rank in the friendship lineup.” Kash replied in an angry tone.
I knew he was mad for a reason. If I were him not only would I think that I ranked last in that group, but I’d also be panicking about what team I could join. But now, I was on the inside and Kash wasn’t. I felt like the only way to fix this would be three people on a team. So, as the teacher walked by our table, I asked for her permission. What surprised me was that she had intended to draw names to assign random groups, but didn’t get a chance to say it before lunch.
Awkward and frustrated, we were stuck in this dilemma. Having first teamed up without Kash didn’t mean we didn’t like him. I knew we—especially I—wouldn’t be able to enjoy any prize if our friend felt bad about being left out. So, I decided to do something to make it up for him and convince Kash he was an equal friend.
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。
That night, I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, I handed my pages of apology to Kash.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】That night, I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked. Thrilled and inspired, I sprang in front of my desk, racked my brains and started drawing a few scenes of three of us giggling, chattering and enjoying each other’s company like we usually did. On the last page, I wrote, “Dear Kash, you are not the one left behind. Liya and I are so sorry about the way we messed things up.” Pierced to the heart with guilt, I gingerly tucked the paintings into an envelope, hoping this would be an icebreaker.
The next day, I handed my pages of apology to Kash. He took it, looking surprised at the first sight. After he read it, an expression of intense joy illuminated his eyes. Blushed, I broke the silence, “I’m sorry, dude. We should have talked to you.” With her eyes fixed on the floor, Liya came over and apologized in a low voice, “You mean a lot to us.” Hearing her words, Kash shook his head and beamed, “I was way too sensitive.” We exchanged a knowing smile, realizing that sincerity, trust and communication were always the key to clearing up the misunderstanding between friends.
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了老师布置了一个两人为一组的团队任务，作者和Liya首先组成了一队，这让他们的好朋友Kash感到失落和生气，他认为自己在三人好友中排名最后。于是作者决定做点什么，让Kash认识到他是一个平等的朋友。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
由第一段首句内容“那天晚上，当我读到一本我们三个人都喜欢的漫画小说时，我突然想到了一个主意。”和第二段首句中的“my pages of apology(我道歉的纸张)”可知，第一段可描写受该想法的启发，作者写了一封道歉信，解释了自己没有认为Kash不重要，并为自己的行为表示歉意。
由第二段首句内容“第二天，我把我的道歉纸张递给了Kash。”可知，第二段可描述Kash看到信之后的反应，Kash也认识到了自己太过敏感，三人重归于好。
2.续写线索：突然想到一个主意——写信解释自己的行为并表示歉意——Kash收到信——作者打破僵局主动谈话——三人重归于好
3.词汇激活：
情绪类
①兴奋：thrilled/excited/stoked/flushed/in excitement
②惊讶：surprised/astonished/shocked
③愧疚：guilt/shame
动作类
①绞尽脑汁：racked my brains/think very hard/task my mind/beat my brains out
②搞砸：mess things up/screw things up
【点睛】【高分句型1】Thrilled and inspired, I sprang in front of my desk, racked my brains and started drawing a few scenes of three of us giggling, chattering and enjoying each other’s company like we usually did.(形容词短语Thrilled and inspired作状语；and连接三个并列的谓语sprang...，racked…和started…；现在分词短语giggling, chattering and enjoying…作后置定语修饰three of us)
【高分句型2】With her eyes fixed on the floor, Liya came over and apologized in a low voice, “You mean a lot to us.”(运用了With复合结构，and连接两个并列的谓语)

2) Treat all people as you wish to be treated.
3) Be kind and helpful to others.
4) Always listen carefully whenever people speak to you. I will interview you one day when you are older and ready for the job.
Good Luck, Meegan!
The Tooth Fairy

Could the next Ernest Hemingway or Jane Austen be a well-engineered AI software program? It’s a question becoming increasingly pressing as machine language-learning software continues to evolve.
Much of this is just nerves. Today’s AI creative writing programs are not yet at a stage of development where they pose a serious threat to Colleen Hoover or Charles Dickens. But while attention continues to focus on the possibility of a blanket takeover of human literature by AI, far less consideration has been given to the prospect of AI co-working with humans.
Earlier this month, American sci-fi writer Ken Liu, who had been awarded Hugo and Nebula to his name, joined 12 other professional authors for a writing workshop on Google’s Wordcraft. This AI tool, a language generating model, is not yet publicly available but is advertised as an AI-powered writing assistant that can, when given the right instruction from the writer, provide helpful descriptions, create lists of objects or emotional states, and even brainstorm ideas.
The writers at the workshop, however, emerged with mixed reports. “Wordcraft is too sensible. Wow!” Robin Sloan wrote. “But ‘sensible’ is another word for predictable, overused and boring. My intention here is to produce something unexpected.”
I’m unconvinced that writers awarded the Nobel Prize have much to fear from AI. Their work, and that of countless other novelists, short story writers, dramatists and poets, is too particular, too beautifully unique. Even if a model learned what they had done in the past, it would not be able to predict where their creativity might take them in the future. But for authors who write following a pattern, AI might step in, first as assistants before some day to authorship.
Production-line novels are nothing new. In the 1970s, Barbara Cartland, who wrote more than 723 books in her lifetime, many of which are romance bestsellers, would read her novels for her secretary to type up at the remarkable rate of roughly seven chapters a week. But already machine has replaced the secretary’s role. Perhaps creative writing software isn’t that far from replacing the Mrs. Cartlands of today.
8. Which aspect of AI calls for more attention?
A. Its damage to our nerves.
B. Its progress in literary studies.
C. Its cooperation with humans.
D. Its influence on human literature.
9. What can we learn about Wordcraft from the text?
A. It generates novels automatically.
B. It outperforms professional writers.
C. Its works receive praises from the public.
D. Its works bear similarity to existing ones.
10. What can writers do to avoid the threat from AI?
A. Increase writing speed.
B. Use diverse resources.
C. Produce creative works.
D. Follow the latest patterns.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Will AI Replace Human Writers?
B. AI Warns Mrs. Cartlands of Today
C. Is Writing Running into a New Era?
D. Word craft Lies at the Center of Debate
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是本月早些时候，曾获得雨果奖和星云奖的美国科幻作家Ken Liu与其他12位专业作家一起参加了一个谷歌的Wordcraft写作研讨会，这是一款人工智能写作助手，文章主要探讨了人工智能是否会取代人类的作家。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“But while attention continues to focus on the possibility of a blanket takeover of human literature by AI, far less consideration has been given to the prospect of Al co-working with humans.(但是，当我们继续关注人工智能全面接管人类文学的可能性时，人们对人工智能与人类合作的前景的考虑要少得多。)”可知，人工智能与人类的合作更值得关注，故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的““Wordcraft is too sensible. Wow!” Robin Sloan wrote. “But ‘sensible’ is another word for predictable, overused and boring. My intention here is to produce something unexpected.”(Word craft太明智了。哇！但“明智”是可预测、过度使用和无聊的另一个词。我的目的是创造一些意想不到的东西。”)”可知，Wordcraft的作品与现存作品有相似之处。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Their work, and that of countless other novelists, short story writers, dramatists and poets, is too particular, too beautifully unique. Even if a model learned what they had done in the past, it would not be able to predict where their creativity might take them in the future.(他们的作品，以及无数其他小说家、短篇小说作家、剧作家和诗人的作品，都太过独特，太过美好。即使一个模型了解了他们过去的行为，它也无法预测他们的创造力在未来会把他们带到哪里。)”可知，作家们可以通过创作有创意的作品来避免人工智能的威胁，故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Could the next Ernest Hemingway or Jane Austen be a well-engineered AI software program? It’s a question becoming increasingly pressing as machine language-learning software continues to evolve.(下一个Ernest Hemingway或Jane Austen会是一个精心设计的人工智能软件程序吗？随着机器语言学习软件的不断发展，这个问题变得越来越紧迫。)”和第二段的“Much of this is just nerves. Today’s AI creative writing programs are not yet at a stage of development where they pose a serious threat to Colleen Hoover or Charles Dickens.(这在很大程度上只是神经紧张。今天的人工智能创意写作程序还没有发展到对Colleen Hoover或Charles Dickens构成严重威胁的阶段。)”可知，本文主要探讨的是人工智能是否会取代人类的作家，因此最好的题目是A选项“Will AI Replace Human Writers?(人工智能会取代人类作家吗？)”，故选A。
D
Two separate research groups in the UK and Denmark have come up with the same idea for a study that could help save endangered species, and have gotten the same results. It involves sucking environmental DNA from the air that animals leave behind.
“We use a really small pump that pulls the air through, and we hope the DNA gets caught on the filter (过滤器),” said Elizabeth Clare, the lead researcher. “It’s a bit like making coffee. You make coffee by sucking water through a filter and leaving the coffee grounds behind. That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.”
Clare says the concept has been used for years in different ways. Scientists sample pathogens (病原体) from the air, which has been used to help track COVID-19. Environmental DNA can also be collected from water to help ease invasive species.
A big goal for both research teams with the new study is to be able to locate endangered species and help save them. It is important to note that this type of DNA sampling can only be picked up if a species is in the area, so if there were two of the same animal, scientists would not be able to tell which one the DNA came from.
Both research groups also reported certain DNA samples not showing up when they knew an animal had been in the area. They also can’t tell yet how long an animal’s DNA will stick around after it’s been in one area. Clare says she’d like to plan more researches to get these answers.
But one thing is for sure after conducting the study. Clare says she has a whole new perspective on taking a deep breath. “As you know, I’m walking through a jungle or the park or taking my dog for a walk or my kids out to play, and I take a deep breath; I think I just inhaled information about all the things that have been here before, and as a scientist, that’s exciting to think that the information that I’m trying to gather is literally hanging in front of me,” she said.
12. Why does the author mention coffee-making?
A. To show the function of a filter.
B. To illustrate how the idea works.
C. To compare two different methods.
D. To prove how simply DNA-sucking works.
13. What does the underlined phrase “the concept” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Detecting danger in the air.
B Protecting endangered animals.
C. Sucking DNA out of the air.
D. Collecting environmental samples.
14. What do we know about the new method of DNA sampling?
A. It distinguishes different DNAs.
B. It collects certain DNA within range.
C. It locates endangered species exactly.
D. It predicts the duration of animals’ stay.
15. What can we infer from Clare’s words in the last paragraph?
A. She breathes the air of hope for future studies.
B. She agrees with the benefits of deep breathing.
C. She adopts brand-new methods of purifying the air.
D. She finds inner peace by doing simple things in life.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。英国和丹麦的两个独立研究小组提出了从动物留下的空气中吸取环境DNA这一研究想法来帮助拯救濒危物种，并取得了相同的结果。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“You make coffee by sucking water through a filter and leaving the coffee grounds behind. That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.(煮咖啡的方法是用过滤器吸水，然后留下咖啡渣。这基本上就是我们正在做的；我们只是把空气吸进去，希望DNA能留下)”可推知，制作咖啡和过滤DNA有相同之处，所以文章提到制作咖啡是为了详细阐述用过滤器捕捉DNA这一研究想法是如何进行的。故选B。
【13题详解】
短语猜测题。分析文章结构，the concept所指代的内容在上文。根据上文中的“That’s basically what we’re doing; we’re just sucking the air through and hoping that the DNA gets left behind.(这基本上就是我们正在做的；我们只是把空气吸进去，希望DNA能留下)”可知，the concept指代从空气来吸取DNA这一研究想法。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It is important to note that this type of DNA sampling can only be picked up if a species is in the area, so if there were two of the same animal, scientists would not be able to tell which one the DNA came from.(需要注意的是，只有当一个物种在该地区时，才能进行这种类型的DNA采样，因此，如果有两种相同的动物，科学家将无法判断DNA来自哪一种)”可知，这种DNA采样的新方法可以收集可及范围内的特定DNA。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中Clare说的话“I think I just inhaled information about all the things that have been here before, and as a scientist, that’s exciting to think that the information that I’m trying to gather is literally hanging in front of me(我想我只是吸入了以前在这里发生过的所有事情的信息，作为一名科学家，想到我试图收集的信息就在我面前，真是令人兴奋)”推知，Clare认为这种研究方法是有希望的，即她呼吸着对未来研究充满希望的空气。故选A。

第二节 读后续写(满分 25分)
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I looked up from my desk to see the teacher writing on the board: “Battle of the Books!” She smiled and said, “This time it’s a teamwork. You’re going to be in teams of two, and set a reading goal. Every team that meets their goal by the end of the month will get a prize!” The lunch bell sounded before she could explain any more rules.
As I gathered my things, Liya passed my desk and said, “Teammates?” Since Liya and I shared the same interest in graphic novel(漫画小说), and we took Hindi language class together, we teamed up automatically. I was both relieved and excited to have my team. Then we got to the cafeteria and quickly threw out a bunch of ideas of what to do at our table.
I looked to our third friend Kash, with whom the three of us always do stuff together, “Kash, do you have ideas for us?” “Why would I give you guys ideas?” he said gloomily(阴沉地). “I’ll save that for my team...whoever that is. Now I see how I rank in the friendship lineup.” Kash replied in an angry tone.
I knew he was mad for a reason. If I were him not only would I think that I ranked last in that group, but I’d also be panicking about what team I could join. But now, I was on the inside and Kash wasn’t. I felt like the only way to fix this would be three people on a team. So, as the teacher walked by our table, I asked for her permission. What surprised me was that she had intended to draw names to assign random groups, but didn’t get a chance to say it before lunch.
Awkward and frustrated, we were stuck in this dilemma. Having first teamed up without Kash didn’t mean we didn’t like him. I knew we—especially I—wouldn’t be able to enjoy any prize if our friend felt bad about being left out. So, I decided to do something to make it up for him and convince Kash he was an equal friend.
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。
That night, I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, I handed my pages of apology to Kash.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】That night, I was struck by an idea as I read a graphic novel that all three of us liked. Thrilled and inspired, I sprang in front of my desk, racked my brains and started drawing a few scenes of three of us giggling, chattering and enjoying each other’s company like we usually did. On the last page, I wrote, “Dear Kash, you are not the one left behind. Liya and I are so sorry about the way we messed things up.” Pierced to the heart with guilt, I gingerly tucked the paintings into an envelope, hoping this would be an icebreaker.
The next day, I handed my pages of apology to Kash. He took it, looking surprised at the first sight. After he read it, an expression of intense joy illuminated his eyes. Blushed, I broke the silence, “I’m sorry, dude. We should have talked to you.” With her eyes fixed on the floor, Liya came over and apologized in a low voice, “You mean a lot to us.” Hearing her words, Kash shook his head and beamed, “I was way too sensitive.” We exchanged a knowing smile, realizing that sincerity, trust and communication were always the key to clearing up the misunderstanding between friends.
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了老师布置了一个两人为一组的团队任务，作者和Liya首先组成了一队，这让他们的好朋友Kash感到失落和生气，他认为自己在三人好友中排名最后。于是作者决定做点什么，让Kash认识到他是一个平等的朋友。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
由第一段首句内容“那天晚上，当我读到一本我们三个人都喜欢的漫画小说时，我突然想到了一个主意。”和第二段首句中的“my pages of apology(我道歉的纸张)”可知，第一段可描写受该想法的启发，作者写了一封道歉信，解释了自己没有认为Kash不重要，并为自己的行为表示歉意。
由第二段首句内容“第二天，我把我的道歉纸张递给了Kash。”可知，第二段可描述Kash看到信之后的反应，Kash也认识到了自己太过敏感，三人重归于好。
2.续写线索：突然想到一个主意——写信解释自己的行为并表示歉意——Kash收到信——作者打破僵局主动谈话——三人重归于好
3.词汇激活：
情绪类
①兴奋：thrilled/excited/stoked/flushed/in excitement
②惊讶：surprised/astonished/shocked
③愧疚：guilt/shame
动作类
①绞尽脑汁：racked my brains/think very hard/task my mind/beat my brains out
②搞砸：mess things up/screw things up
【点睛】【高分句型1】Thrilled and inspired, I sprang in front of my desk, racked my brains and started drawing a few scenes of three of us giggling, chattering and enjoying each other’s company like we usually did.(形容词短语Thrilled and inspired作状语；and连接三个并列的谓语sprang...，racked…和started…；现在分词短语giggling, chattering and enjoying…作后置定语修饰three of us)
【高分句型2】With her eyes fixed on the floor, Liya came over and apologized in a low voice, “You mean a lot to us.”(运用了With复合结构，and连接两个并列的谓语)
