B
One school night this month I quietly approached Alexander, my 15-year-old son, and patted him on the cheek in a manner I hoped would seem casual. Alex knew better, sensing by my touch, which remained just a moment too long, that I was sneaking (偷偷地做) a touch of the beard that had begun to grow near his ears. Suddenly he went stormily to his computer screen. That, and an angry look of his eyes, told me more forcefully than words: Mom, you are seen through!
I realized I committed a silly behavior: not showing respect for my teenager’s personal space. “The average teenager has strong feelings about his privacy,” said two young women experts. Ms. Frankel and Ms. Fox, both 17, are the authors of Breaking the Code, a new book that seeks to bridge the generational divide between parents and adolescents. It is being promoted by its publisher as the first self-help guide by teenagers for their parents, a kind of Kids Are From Mars, Parents Are From Venus that demystifies the language and actions of teenagers.
Personally, I welcomed insights into teenagers from any qualified experts, and that included the authors. The most common missteps in interacting with teenagers, they instructed me, result from the conflict between parents maintaining their right to know what goes on under their roof and teenagers striving to guard their privacy. When a child is younger, they write, every decision centers around the parents. But now, as Ms. Fox told me, “often your teenager is in this circle that doesn’t include you.”
Ms. Fox and Ms. Frankel acknowledge that teenagers can be quick to interpret their parents’ remarks as negative or authoritative and respond with aggressiveness that masks their defenselessness. “What we want above all is your approval,” they write. “Don’t forget, no matter how much we act as if we don’t care what you say, we believe the things you say about us.”
24. In the second paragraph, Kids Are From Mars, Parents Are From Venus is mentioned because ______.
A. it disapproves of opinions in Breaking the Code
B. it shares the same theme with Breaking the Code
C. it employs the same language style as Breaking the Code
D. it ranks right after Breaking the Code among self-help guides
25. With their book, Ms. Frankel and Ms. Fox ______.
A. declare teenagers’ rights B. remind parents of teenagers’ missteps
C. help parents know teenagers better D. arouse much disagreement from the public
26. What often leads to conflicts between parents and teenagers based on the passage?
A. Teenagers’ defense of their privacy.
B. Parents’ striving to instruct teenagers.
C. Teenagers’ refusal to follow experts’ advice.
D. Parents’ dislike in teenagers’ attitudes to life.
27. What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A. Teenagers always rush to judgement on others.
B. Parents often seek to create an authoritative image.
C. Parents’ opinions about teenagers matter much to them.
D. Teenagers feature good comprehension and defenselessness.

C
Peter and Minke van Wingerden have created something wild: a herd of cows floating on the sea. The Dutch husband-and-wife team’s experiment on sustainable agriculture, called Floating Farm, can be found in the port of Rotterdam. The modernist structure houses 40 cows, who collectively produce some 200 gallons of milk a day. In addition to helping nourish (滋养) the local community, the waterborne farm is playing a part in the global conversation about how the climate crisis is pushing farmers to reconsider how—and where—they produce food.
Floods, extreme heating, droughts and even rising night temperatures have sent the food system off balance. The race to outsmart the constant attack of extreme weather has made the world of farming unrecognizable from what it was only decades ago. A team of scientists in Mexico is developing wheat types that can adapt themselves to different climates, while Jack’s Solar Garden in Longmont, Colorado, is a testbed for the emerging method of solar farming.
Rotterdam has already established itself as one of the most climate-adaptive places in the world. Everything from office buildings to entire neighborhoods are built on water in the city, which is 90% below sea level. The Wingerdens’ Floating Farm was a new but necessary attempt. Should a weather crisis arise, a waterborne farm isn’t necessarily stuck in place. A former property developer with a background in engineering, Peter found his inspiration for the Floating Farm in a climate disaster in New York City, where Hurricane Sandy prevented the delivery of fresh food to millions.
The Wingerdens’ model is ripe for reproduction—which is exactly what the Floating Farm’s team of 14 are working on now. Plans are under way for a floating vegetable farm to move into the space next to the current Floating Farm. Permit applications are also out for similar structures in Dubai, Singapore and the Dutch cities of Haarlem and Arnhem.
The new projects will apply lessons learned from Floating Farm. “You need to build a house in order to know how to build a house,” Peter says. The biggest obstacles he sees ahead, however, are not financial or physical, but rather political and administrative. “One of the biggest challenges we come across worldwide is regulations. Cities need to have disruptive thinking, cities need to have disruptive departments, and cities need to have areas where you can say: OK, this is the experimental zone.” Because what Peter and his team are pulling off is of a different order than the typical sustainability measures. “We are not innovative,” he says. “We are disruptive.”
28. Which of the following is TRUE about the Floating Farm?
A. It is the first modern farming attempt to fight climate change.
B. It is a model of new agriculture in the age of climate crisis.
C. It has outsmarted other forms of farming like solar farming.
D. It copies a similar structure in Dubai ready for reproduction.
29. It can be inferred from the passage that ___________.
A. 90% of the population in Rotterdam live below the sea level
B. The New York City is working hard to fight climate change
C. The local community will not be fed without new farming
D. Waterborne facilities are necessary to the future of Rotterdam
30. The phrase “disruptive thinking” in the last paragraph means “thinking __________”.
A. in a daring and unusual way B. in a focused and logical way
C. in a careful and detailed way D. in a rude and unpleasant way
31. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. Is Rotterdam Built on Water?
B. Can Floating Farming Survive?
C. Are Cows at Sea the Future of Farming?
D. Is Extreme Weather Affecting Agriculture?

D
Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have turned spider webs into music——creating an strange soundtrack that could help them better understand how the spiders output their complex creations and even how they communicate.
The MIT team worked with Berlin-based artist Tomas Saraceno to take 2D (two- dimensional) laser scans of a spider web, which were linked together and made into a mathematical model that could recreate the web in 3D in VR (virtual reality). They also worked with MIT’s music department to create the virtual instrument.
“Even though the web looks really random, there actually are a lot of inside structures and you can visualize them and you can look at them, but it’s really hard to grasp for the human imagination or human brain to understand all these structural details,” said MIT engineering professor Markus Buehler, who presented the work on Monday at a virtual meeting of the American Chemical Society.
Listening to the music while moving through the VR spider web lets you see and hear these structural changes and gives a better idea of how spiders see the world, he told CNN. “Spiders use vibrations as a way to locate themselves, to communicate with other spiders and so the idea of thinking really like a spider was something that was very important to us as spider material scientists,” Buehler said.
Spiders are able to build their webs without shelves or supports, so having a better idea of how they work could lead to the development of advanced new 3D printing techniques. “The reason why I did that is I wanted to be able to get information really from the spider world, which is very weird and mysterious,” Buehler explained. In addition to the scientific value, Buehler said the webs are musically interesting and that you can hear the sounds the spider creates during construction. “It’s unusual and eerie and scary, but finally beautiful.” he described.
32. What have MIT scientists done according to the passage?
A. They have translated spider webs into sounds.
B. They have made a mathematical model to produce webs.
C. They have created a soundtrack to catch spiders.
D. They have known how spiders communicate.
33. What can we know about spider webs from paragraph 3?
A. Their structures are beautiful and clear.
B. Professor Markus Buehler knows them well.
C. The American Chemical Society presents the result.
D. They are complex for people to figure it out.
34. In which field will the study be helpful?
A. virtual reality B. printing C painting D. film-making
35. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. It tells us that the music created by spiders is scary.
B. It shows how the researchers carry out the experiment.
C. It presents a new and creative way to study spiders.
D. It explains why scientists did the experiment.

Scientists and researchers have long sought to understand why people cry when experiencing joy or happiness. Crying can be confusing to witness on a joyous occasion, but it happens often. 36 .
You have repressed feelings.
37 . This meant that people who cried when experiencing something joyous had underlying feelings of sadness they hadn’t addressed. Many researchers have countered the theory over the years, but it appears to be one of the earliest attempts to understand why we cry when we are happy.
38 .
Tears contain enzymes(酶), lipids(脂质), electrolytes(电解质), and metabolites(代谢物). But emotional tears might also include other proteins and hormones. It is assumed that release of stress hormones like prolactin(催乳激素) and leu-enkephalin(内啡肽) may help regulate the body’s physical and emotional homeostasis(自我平衡). Stress hormones may help calm you and regulate your mood.
It fosters vulnerability(脆弱性) and social connection.
Crying in any setting could also be our way of showing vulnerability as human beings. When we cry, we signal to others to empathize(共情) with us. 39 . Scientists believe that crying is a way of establishing a social connection with other people.
You feel powerless over your emotions.
40 . When you cry, it feels like you are forcing out some of these emotions. As such, while you might be experiencing a happy or joyous occasion, you might find the emotion too strong to control. Crying helps you release some of this emotion.
A. Crying may regulate your body.
B. Crying may release repressed stress.
C. This happens when we cry because of a happy or sad event.
D. Over the decades, researchers have devised theories to explain why.
E. An early theory suggested that this happened as a result of repressed feelings.
F. Some research suggests crying can help you manage perceived strong feelings.
G. While you might not always allow your tears free fall, you often feel them coming on.

There are times when you are at a 50 crossroads with a student and the road you choose will make all the 51 . Minutes later, I realized at that moment I should apologize, “You’re right, Laura.

On October 12, 2022, 57 Italian astronaut released photos of China from space with sentences from Lantingji Xu, a famous article 58 (write) by Wang Xizhi, a calligrapher from the Eastern Jin Dynasty in China.

In the 19th century, missionary Angelo Zottoli included the article in his Cursus Litteraturae Sinicae and considered it an 60 (essence) piece.
The prophet(先知) Muhammad is known for a saying 61 (wide) circulated in many parts of the Middle East: “Seek knowledge even if you have to go as far as China.” This expresses the desire of the Arab people 62 ( seek) knowledge from China.
British writer Oscar Wilde, in an article, shared his insights about Chuang Tzu(庄子369B.C.－286B.C.), “ He is one of the Darwinians 63 Darwin(达尔文1809－1882): He traces man from the germ, and sees his unity with nature.”
Some Turkish sinologists(汉学家) say that The Art of War contains Chinese wisdom; some Kazakhstan sinologists say they have a special 64 (fond) for Confucian wisdom; some Russian sinologists say they love translating Chinese poetry.

When I Have a Different Opinion







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。
The watch was my grandfather’s. He hung it by his bed. The face was marked with elegant Roman numbers and the case was gold. My grandfather got it after his fifty years of faithful service with his firm. I often gazed at it longingly as I sat with my grandfather after school.
The day I told him of my success in the examinations, he was pleased, “You’ll be going to the new school next, Will. Remember you’ll need plenty of patience. That’s the right way.” I nodded when handing him the watch. He gazed at it for some moments, and wound it.
The next morning my mother told me he had died in his sleep and left me his watch. For safety, my mother was to put it away in trust until she considered me old enough to look after it. I protested (抗议) so strongly that she finally agreed to hang it in the kitchen where I could always see it.
The summer soon ended and it was time for me to enter the new school. I never made friends easily, and for a time I did little more than get on speaking terms with some boys. One of them was a rich fellow whose way of impressing us was to parade his possessions before us. Everything Crawley had was better than ours—until he brought the watch.
“I have a better watch than that,” I announced, attempting to impress them. “Well, show it to us,” Crawley sneered (冷笑) in disbelief. Embarrassed, I promised to bring it to them that afternoon.
Considering there was no way to persuade my mother to let me take the watch, I decided to wait for her to step outside and slip the watch into my pocket. So I did. After lunch, as I was too excited to wait for the return bus, I got my bikeout of the shed.
I rode fast, excitement coursing through me. Then suddenly a puppy ran out into my path. I pulled at my brakes so hard that the bike stopped to a sharp standstill (急停) and I fell over.

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
I picked myself up and put a trembling hand into my pocket.




“That’s not the right way. Patience, Will. Patience,” a voice echoed in my ears after the boys left.

When I Have a Different Opinion
We may have different opinions in organizing class activities. When I have a different opinion, I may choose to give it up and respect the opinion of the majority.
The main reason for my choice is that being brought up in a culture emphasizing collectivism, I tend to sacrifice my own interest for the group benefit. Once we were left to decide whether to have a picnic in a park or go to a museum. I would love to go to a museum, but most of my classmates wanted to go for a picnic. Without hesitation, I decided to follow them and we did have lots of fun that day.
So, according to this experience, I believe sometimes giving up a little can mean getting more.
续写
I picked myself up and put a trembling hand into my pocket. Then I brought out what was left of my grandfather’s proudest possession. There was deep bulge in the watch, the glass shattered, and the Roman numbers looking crazily at one another. Putting it back, I rode slowly on to school, numb with misery. After what seemed forever, I finally turned up before the waiting boys. "My mother wouldn’t let me bring it," I lied. "His mother wouldn’t let him, "Crawley jeered. "What a story!" The others took up his cries and left without a backward glance.
"That’s not the right way. Patience, Will. Patience, "a voice echoed in my ears after the boys left. Though anger, embarrassment and sadness hung heavily in the air, the voice drew me to the awareness of the mistakes I had made when I attempted to impress the boys. I shouldn’t have tried to integrate in such a hasty way, nor should I have stolen the watch behind my mother. It was the first time that I had truly realized the meaning of the gift—patience. I knew for sure that every time I lost patience in the future I would remember my grandfather’s words.

W: Sure, I shop here all the time. It’s become a really good place to shop since the owner decided to move here last year.
M: I see, did you shop at Sunrise Supermarket when it was located on Brighton Avenue?
W: I went there a few times but the store was so small. I didn’t have a wide selection like we have here.

W: Thanks for letting me borrow the tent, Sam.
M: No problem, Tara. I was worried it’d be too small.
W: It was a little tight but we managed. We’ll have to get a big one for next time. Anyway, it was a great camping trip!
M: Are you going again soon?
W: No, we’re practicing our rock climbing for a little while to get into shape.
M: It’s great for building strength! Me and Shelly do it at the climbing center just out of town. It’s fun solving the puzzle of how to get up, and exciting too!
W: Ture that! My gym has a practice wall but we’d like to do it in the wild one day!
M: I have a guide I can recommend. He’ll take you to the best climbing spot and it has all the equipment too!
W: Great! Do you want to practice together?
M: Sure, I’m going with Shelly at 6 pm tonight.
W: Excellent. I’ll meet you at the center then!

W: John, I want to start an online store for homemade items. I want to sell handmade candles, soap, and other household things.
M: Great idea! It sounds like it can be unique.
W: I’ve been researching and I found out that this market area is not overly competitive and there’s huge demand.
M: So, what’s your next step?
W: I want to start by reaching out to local artists and see if they’re interested in partnering with me and I’d offer a platform for them to sell their products.
M: Good idea! It’d be a win-win for both of you. What about deliveries?
W: I’ve been thinking about that. I want to offer free delivery for orders over a certain amount, and for smaller orders, I’ll charge a small fee.
M: And how about packaging?
W: I want to make sure the products are packaged well. I’m investing in packaging materials that are recyclable.
M: That sounds great. I’m sure it will be successful. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help.
W: Thanks, John. I really appreciate it.

M: Well, good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Crowne Plaza business center at Coogee Beach. I’m David Bowers, your host for the next two days, and I just want to give you some practical information.
OK. Coffee, tea, and cold drinks are served all day in the cafe which is just inside the main entrance to the hotel. Lunch is served between 12:00 and 2:30 in the private dining room. This evening you are invited to join the management for drinks by the swimming pool. The General Manager usually makes a short welcome speech.
I’d like to apologize for the temperature. I’m afraid it’s a little warmer than usual in here because the air conditioning in the business center is being repaired. However, the work will be completed before lunchtime.
Right. There are some changes to the conference program. Unfortunately, one of the main speakers has canceled her talk and so a couple of the sessions have been canceled or rescheduled. The updated program is being printed at the moment.
OK now, before we go for breakfast, are there any questions?
