Sarah Ramadan had always been a perfectionist to draw more attention from others. “It’s hard to say if I ever did things for myself,” she said. Her drive for perfectionism even influenced her body. “I thought I would be a better person if I lost weight since that meant I cared for my figure,” she said.
Ramadan started to make changes, slowly by cutting food intake (摄入). However, things began to get worse and she developed anorexia (厌食症). “Gradually, I was having greater food fears. I related weight increase with shame,” she said. The extreme weight loss seriously affected her health. She was always freezing, had dry skin and thinning hair, and developed an irregular heartbeat and low blood sugar.
To hide her weight loss, Ramadan wore thick clothes. Then one day her mother walked in her room while she was only in a T-shirt. Her mother began to cry. Only then did others know her poor condition. Realizing the trouble, her parents placed her in a treatment center. Ramadan’s weight increased, and she looked recovered, but mentally she was still fighting with anorexia. After half a year, her weight went to the lowest again and she could no longer walk without her mother’s support. She left university for that.
Ramadan finally realized she had a choice to make: To beat her anorexia or to die. She turned to her brother, Aladdin, a bodybuilder for help, who set up a meal plan to increase her food intake. “I knew I needed to eat to gain weight, but eating is actually physically exhausting when you’re not used to it. I had to learn how to enjoy food again,” said Ramadan. She started to feel a difference and was motivated to continue. In addition, Ramadan also hit the gym to build herself up physically. She said, “Where there is a will, there is a way. I eventually make it. Not only did I get weight, but most importantly, I got life.”
24. Why did Ramadan want to lose weight?
A. To present herself better. B. To get a healthy body.
C. To help recover from diseases. D. To satisfy her parents.
25. How was Ramadan doing after losing weight?
A. She felt ashamed of her weight. B. She failed to get dressed on her own.
C. She was suffering from anorexia. D. She was disappointed with her diet.
26. What plays a key role in Ramadan’s final recovery?
A. Her determination. B. Doctors’ advice.
C. Aladdin’s encouragement. D. Her mother’s attention.
27. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A girl’s advice on how to battle anorexia B. A girl’s fear of suffering from anorexia
C. A girl’s journey to becoming a bodybuilder D. A girl’s choice between life and death

The Sahara is the world’s largest and most magic desert, but knowledge about it is surprisingly limited. Even estimates of when it formed vary widely, from more than five million years ago to mere thousands. Now, however, geographers studying wind-carried Saharan dust on the Canary Islands have come closer to settling this: it is, they report, close to five million years old.
One reason for the uncertainty over the Sahara’s age is that researchers use different methods to estimate it. These include studying desert dust found in sediment (沉积物) under the Atlantic Ocean, analyzing sandstone and modeling the ancient climate. To help settle the uncertainty, Daniel, geographer of the U.S. Geological Survey, and his workmates looked at sediment on Spain’s Canary Islands. They found evidence of Saharan dust. The dust appeared in ancient soil layers, whose age they assessed on the basis of fossils found in the same layers — and that age agreed with the earlier ocean’s sediment studies. The researchers reported their findings in November in Palaeogeography.
“The conclusion of the study is very good,” says Zhongshi Zhang, a climate modeler at the University of Bergen in Norway, who was not involved in the work. “Because the dust found on the islands is distinct from the ocean’s record,” Zhang adds, “it helps to build the case for a five-million-year age.”
The Sahara is the biggest source of wind-carried dust in the world — and that dust’s journey does not end in the Canary Islands, which lie just off the western coast of Africa. It continues onto places such as the Amazon rain forest in South America, Daniel notes. Amazon soils are poor in nutrients, and he says the new results help to show how rich dust from Africa could have been supporting the South American region’s incredible biodiversity for millions of years — adding to the Amazon’s own origin story.
28. How did Daniel settle the formation time of the Sahara?
A. By modeling the ancient climate in Spain’s islands.
B. By studying the desert dust under the Atlantic Ocean.
C. By assessing the age of the dust in ancient soil layers.
D. By analyzing the wind-carried sandstone in the Sahara.
29. What is the underlined words “their findings” in the paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The appearance of the dust. B. The formation of two layers.
C. The age of the Saharan dust. D. The agreement of two layers.
30. What contributes to the biodiversity of the South America?
A. The Saharan dust. B. The Amazon soils.
C. The Amazon rain forest. D. The Coastal waters.
31. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. The Study of the Sahara. B. The Birth of the Sahara.
C. The Source of the Sahara. D. The Effect of the Sahara.
D
Arguably, the biggest science development of the year to date has been the images of the very depths of the universe taken by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Those images beg a comparison between the external and internal universes that science is bent on observing and understanding.
Decades ago, astrophysicist Carl Sagan famously said, “The universe is also within us. We’re made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself. ” He was commenting then on the reality that our internal universe was as complex and as fantastic as the outer space.
There are many similarities between the progress we’ve made in understanding the universe and in piecing together life’s inner workings. Like the technological developments that took us from Galileo’s telescope to the Hubble to the JWST, life science tools have also improved rapidly. From early light microscopes to modern super-resolution ones, these developments have afforded researchers a deep look into biology’s infinitesimal (无限小的) landscape. Learning that living things were composed of cells was, not a terribly long time ago, a revolutionary observation. Since then, scientists have been able to dive ever deeper into the components of life.
Going beyond merely observing the complicated makeup of organisms, life scientists can now discover the workings of molecules (分子). And that is where scanning the universe differs from peering into biology. Understanding the universe, especially from a functional standpoint, is not necessarily an immediate urgency. Understanding biology on that level is. Simply observing the amazing internal structure of cells is not enough. Biologists must also characterize how all those parts interact and change in different environments and when faced with various challenges. Being able to image a virus or bacterium is nice at the level of basic science. But knowing how viruses gain entry into cells and spread, infect, and disable can literally save lives. Through time, biology has risen to this mechanistic challenge. Not only can life science tools produce images of cell components, even more importantly, they can help predict the effects of drugs on receptors, of immune cells on foreign invaders , and of genetic perturbations (基因干扰) on development and aging.
This is not to belittle the work of scientists researching into universe. They should rightly be praised for delivering views of impossibly distant, impossibly massive phenomena. My aim is to celebrate these accomplishments while at the same time recognizing that science’s inward search for detail and insight is equally impressive and, in my view, more urgent. The output of both the outward and inward explorations should stimulate wonder in everyone. After all, it’s all star-stuff.
32. Why does the author quote Carl Sagan’s comment in Paragraph 2?
A. To introduce the background. B. To prove an assumption.
C. To make a comparison. D. To present an idea.
33. Like the study of the universe, life science has been advancing in ________.
A. study approaches B. system management
C. research facilities D. technology integration
34. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that biologists’ work is ________.
A. practical B. risky C. flexible D. popular
35. As for life science, which would the author agree with?
A. It has received universal recognition. B. It should enjoy priority in development.
C. It can be applied in the majority of areas. D. It is more complicated than space science.

The dust appeared in ancient soil layers (层), whose age they assessed on the basis of fossils (化石) found in the same layers — and that age agreed with the earlier ocean’s sediment studies. The researchers reported their findings in November in Palaeogeography. (为了解决这种不确定性，美国地质调查局的地理学家丹尼尔和他的同事们研究了西班牙加那利群岛的沉积物。他们发现了撒哈拉尘埃的证据。灰尘出现在古老的土层中，他们根据在同一土层中发现的化石评估了这些土层的年龄，该年龄与早期的海洋沉积物研究一致。研究人员于11月在《古地理学》上发表了他们的发现)”可知，丹尼尔通过评估古代土层中灰尘的年龄来确定撒哈拉沙漠的形成时间，可得出their findings指代前文提及的“撒哈拉尘埃的年龄（The age of the Saharan dust）”。故选C项。

【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文特别是第一段的“Now, however, geographers studying wind-carried Saharan dust on the Canary Islands have come closer to settling this: it is, they report, close to five million years old. (然而，现在，研究加那利群岛上撒哈拉风带尘埃的地理学家已经更接近于解决这个问题：他们报告说，这已经有近500万年的历史了)”可知，文章讲述了，研究人员通过研究西班牙加那利群岛的沉积物，发现了撒哈拉尘埃的证据，通过评估古代土层中灰尘的年龄来确定撒哈拉沙漠的形成时间，报告说撒哈拉沙漠有近500万年的历史，讲的是与撒哈拉的诞

推理判断题。根据第二段“Decades ago, astrophysicist Carl Sagan famously said, “The universe is also within us. We’re made of star-stuff.

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Like the technological developments that took us from Galileo’s telescope to the Hubble to the JWST, life science tools have also improved rapidly. From early light microscopes to modern super-resolution ones, these developments have afforded researchers a deep look into biology’s infinitesimal (无限小的) landscape. (就像从伽利略望远镜到哈勃望远镜再到JWST的技术发展一样，生命科学工具也在迅速改进。从早期的光学显微镜到现代的超分辨率显微镜，这些发展使研究人员能够深入观察生物学的微小景观。)”可知就像对宇宙的研究一样，生命科学的研究设施也在不断发展，故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Biologists must also characterize how all those parts interact and change in different environments and when faced with various challenges. Being able to image a virus or bacterium is nice at the level of basic science. But knowing how viruses gain entry into cells and spread, infect, and disable can literally save lives. Through time, biology has risen to this mechanistic challenge. Not only can life science tools produce images of cell components, even more importantly, they can help predict the effects of drugs on receptors, of immune cells on foreign invaders (入侵者), and of genetic perturbations (基因干扰) on development and aging. (生物学家还必须描述所有这些部分在不同环境和面临各种挑战时是如何相互作用和变化的。能够对病毒或细菌进行成像在基础科学层面上是很好的。但了解病毒如何进入细胞并传播、感染和致残确实可以挽救生命。随着时间的推移，生物学已经上升到这个机械的挑战。生命科学工具不仅可以生成细胞成分的图像，更重要的是，它们可以帮助预测药物对受体的影响，免疫细胞对外来入侵者的影响，以及基因扰动对发育和衰老的影响。)”可推测生物学家的工作是很实用的，故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“My aim is to celebrate these accomplishments while at the same time recognizing that science’s inward search for detail and insight is equally impressive and, in my view, more urgent. 可知作者认为生命科学要优先发展，故选B。

【40题详解】
由后文的“Have you heard something interesting in the news—a social problem or new technology that interests you?(你在新闻中听到过什么有趣的事情吗？)”可知，本段主要讲的是要听新闻，C选项“Keep an ear open for current events(留意时事)”说明了要听新闻，可概括本段内容，因此符合语境，可作为本段小标题，故选C。

【61题详解】
考查时态。句意：其中一种产品是将传统的中国茶与咖啡混合，这在香港一直是一种受欢迎的茶点选择。根据时间状语for long判断，此句用现在完成时。非限定性定语从句中主语是traditional Chinese tea with coffee，谓语动词用单数形式。故填has been。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：为了跟上市场，包括喜茶、CoCo、茶百道在内的茶连锁店不断推出以中国茶或其他中国文化元素为特色的新产品。在2023年春节假期，这些茶叶连锁店都增加了销售。句中已有谓语动词，所以用非谓语动词。名词products与feature之间为主动关系，所以用现在分词作定语。故填featuring。
【63题详解】
考查时态。句意：在2023年春节假期期间，这些茶叶连锁店的销售额都有所增长。根据时间状语During the 2023 Spring Festival holiday可知，用一般过去时。故填saw。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：对于年轻顾客来说，新的茶叶产品已经成为他们了解和学习传统茶文化的窗口。句中先行词为window，在定语从句中作介词through的宾语，所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【65题详解】
考查介词。句意：他们也可能对传统饮茶产生兴趣，特别是因为年轻人现在更喜欢更健康的生活方式：少糖、低热量。have a preference for喜欢。故填for。
【66题详解】
考查比较级。句意：研究茶文化的研究员沈冬梅表示：“喝咖啡更多是办公室文化，而喝茶则适用于更多场合。”根据“Coffee drinking is more about office culture”和句意可知，喝茶适合更多的场合，所以用形容词比较级形式。故填greater。

改错
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要描述了作者去吉尔巴岛旅行的经历。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意：这是我去过的最吸引人的地方之一。分析句子结构可知，此处要用副词truly作状语，修饰动词。故将true改为truly。
2.考查名词。句意：这是我去过的最吸引人的地方之一。根据“one of the most attractive”可知，后面加名词复数，表示“最……的之一”。故将destination改为destinations。
3.考查时态。句意：我必须承认我以前从未见过如此美丽的海岸线。根据句意可知，“承认”是过去的动作，“看见”这一动作发生在“承认”之前，故用过去完成时。故将have改为had。
4.考查连词。句意：我大部分时间都在海滩上散步，享受着阳光和平静的海浪声。分析句意可知，“walking on the beach”和“enjoying the sun and the peaceful sound of the waves”是并列关系，不是转折关系。故将but改为and。
5.考查数词。句意：在那里的第四天，我参观了一些当地的景点，包括El Ghriba犹太教堂。根据句意可知，“在第四天，参观了一些景点”，用序数词表示。故将four改为fourth。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意：在那里的第四天，我参观了一些当地的景点，包括El Ghriba犹太教堂。句中已有谓语动词“took and visited”，“local attractions”和“include”之间是主动关系，故用现在分词。故将included改为including。
7.考查冠词。句意：那是一次难忘的经历。泛指“一次经历”，要用不定冠词修饰名词，unforgettable以元音音素开头需用不定冠词an。故将unforgettable前面加an。
8.考查介词。句意：总的来说，我觉得很幸运，因为一切都比我想象的好。根据“everything was good than I could ever imagine”可知，because引导了原因状语从句，because of后只能跟名词、短语等作宾语，不能接从句。故将because后删掉of。
9.考查形容词。句意：总的来说，我觉得很幸运，因为一切都比我想象的好。根据“than I could ever imagine”可知，要用形容词比较级。故将good改为better。
10.考查动名词。句意：我期待着下次探索这个美丽的国家。looking forward to doing sth表示“期待做某事”，用动名词作宾语。故将explore改为exploring。

Sarah Ramadan had always been a perfectionist to draw more attention from others. “It’s hard to say if I ever did things for myself,” she said. Her drive for perfectionism even influenced her body. “I thought I would be a better person if I lost weight since that meant I cared for my figure,” she said.
Ramadan started to make changes, slowly by cutting food intake (摄入). However, things began to get worse and she developed anorexia (厌食症). “Gradually, I was having greater food fears. I related weight increase with shame,” she said. The extreme weight loss seriously affected her health. She was always freezing, had dry skin and thinning hair, and developed an irregular heartbeat and low blood sugar.
To hide her weight loss, Ramadan wore thick clothes. Then one day her mother walked in her room while she was only in a T-shirt. Her mother began to cry. Only then did others know her poor condition. Realizing the trouble, her parents placed her in a treatment center. Ramadan’s weight increased, and she looked recovered, but mentally she was still fighting with anorexia. After half a year, her weight went to the lowest again and she could no longer walk without her mother’s support. She left university for that.
Ramadan finally realized she had a choice to make: To beat her anorexia or to die. She turned to her brother, Aladdin, a bodybuilder for help, who set up a meal plan to increase her food intake. “I knew I needed to eat to gain weight, but eating is actually physically exhausting when you’re not used to it. I had to learn how to enjoy food again,” said Ramadan. She started to feel a difference and was motivated to continue. In addition, Ramadan also hit the gym to build herself up physically. She said, “Where there is a will, there is a way. I eventually make it. Not only did I get weight, but most importantly, I got life.”
24. Why did Ramadan want to lose weight?
A. To present herself better. B. To get a healthy body.
C. To help recover from diseases. D. To satisfy her parents.
25. How was Ramadan doing after losing weight?
A. She felt ashamed of her weight. B. She failed to get dressed on her own.
C. She was suffering from anorexia. D. She was disappointed with her diet.
26. What plays a key role in Ramadan’s final recovery?
A. Her determination. B. Doctors’ advice.
C. Aladdin’s encouragement. D. Her mother’s attention.

The Sahara is the world’s largest and most magic desert, but knowledge about it is surprisingly limited. Even estimates of when it formed vary widely, from more than five million years ago to mere thousands. Now, however, geographers studying wind-carried Saharan dust on the Canary Islands have come closer to settling this: it is, they report, close to five million years old.
One reason for the uncertainty over the Sahara’s age is that researchers use different methods to estimate it. These include studying desert dust found in sediment (沉积物) under the Atlantic Ocean, analyzing sandstone and modeling the ancient climate. To help settle the uncertainty, Daniel, geographer of the U.S. Geological Survey, and his workmates looked at sediment on Spain’s Canary Islands. They found evidence of Saharan dust. The dust appeared in ancient soil layers, whose age they assessed on the basis of fossils found in the same layers — and that age agreed with the earlier ocean’s sediment studies. The researchers reported their findings in November in Palaeogeography.
“The conclusion of the study is very good,” says Zhongshi Zhang, a climate modeler at the University of Bergen in Norway, who was not involved in the work. “Because the dust found on the islands is distinct from the ocean’s record,” Zhang adds, “it helps to build the case for a five-million-year age.”
The Sahara is the biggest source of wind-carried dust in the world — and that dust’s journey does not end in the Canary Islands, which lie just off the western coast of Africa. It continues onto places such as the Amazon rain forest in South America, Daniel notes. Amazon soils are poor in nutrients, and he says the new results help to show how rich dust from Africa could have been supporting the South American region’s incredible biodiversity for millions of years — adding to the Amazon’s own origin story.
28. How did Daniel settle the formation time of the Sahara?
A. By modeling the ancient climate in Spain’s islands.
B. By studying the desert dust under the Atlantic Ocean.
C. By assessing the age of the dust in ancient soil layers.
D. By analyzing the wind-carried sandstone in the Sahara.
29. What is the underlined words “their findings” in the paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The appearance of the dust. B. The formation of two layers.
C. The age of the Saharan dust. D. The agreement of two layers.
30. What contributes to the biodiversity of the South America?
A. The Saharan dust. B. The Amazon soils.
C. The Amazon rain forest. D. The Coastal waters.
31. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. The Study of the Sahara. B. The Birth of the Sahara.
C. The Source of the Sahara. D. The Effect of the Sahara.
D
Arguably, the biggest science development of the year to date has been the images of the very depths of the universe taken by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Those images beg a comparison between the external and internal universes that science is bent on observing and understanding.
Decades ago, astrophysicist Carl Sagan famously said, “The universe is also within us. We’re made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself. ” He was commenting then on the reality that our internal universe was as complex and as fantastic as the outer space.
There are many similarities between the progress we’ve made in understanding the universe and in piecing together life’s inner workings. Like the technological developments that took us from Galileo’s telescope to the Hubble to the JWST, life science tools have also improved rapidly. From early light microscopes to modern super-resolution ones, these developments have afforded researchers a deep look into biology’s infinitesimal (无限小的) landscape. Learning that living things were composed of cells was, not a terribly long time ago, a revolutionary observation. Since then, scientists have been able to dive ever deeper into the components of life.
Going beyond merely observing the complicated makeup of organisms, life scientists can now discover the workings of molecules (分子). And that is where scanning the universe differs from peering into biology. Understanding the universe, especially from a functional standpoint, is not necessarily an immediate urgency. Understanding biology on that level is. Simply observing the amazing internal structure of cells is not enough. Biologists must also characterize how all those parts interact and change in different environments and when faced with various challenges. Being able to image a virus or bacterium is nice at the level of basic science. But knowing how viruses gain entry into cells and spread, infect, and disable can literally save lives. Through time, biology has risen to this mechanistic challenge. Not only can life science tools produce images of cell components, even more importantly, they can help predict the effects of drugs on receptors, of immune cells on foreign invaders , and of genetic perturbations (基因干扰) on development and aging.
This is not to belittle the work of scientists researching into universe. They should rightly be praised for delivering views of impossibly distant, impossibly massive phenomena. My aim is to celebrate these accomplishments while at the same time recognizing that science’s inward search for detail and insight is equally impressive and, in my view, more urgent. The output of both the outward and inward explorations should stimulate wonder in everyone. After all, it’s all star-stuff.
32. Why does the author quote Carl Sagan’s comment in Paragraph 2?
A. To introduce the background. B. To prove an assumption.
C. To make a comparison. D. To present an idea.
33. Like the study of the universe, life science has been advancing in ________.
A. study approaches B. system management
C. research facilities D. technology integration
34. We can infer from Paragraph 4 that biologists’ work is ________.
A. practical B. risky C. flexible D. popular
35. As for life science, which would the author agree with?
A. It has received universal recognition. B. It should enjoy priority in development.
C. It can be applied in the majority of areas. D. It is more complicated than space science.

【62题详解】

【63题详解】
考查时态。句意：在2023年春节假期期间，这些茶叶连锁店的销售额都有所增长。根据时间状语During the 2023 Spring Festival holiday可知，用一般过去时。故填saw。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：对于年轻顾客来说，新的茶叶产品已经成为他们了解和学习传统茶文化的窗口。句中先行词为window，在定语从句中作介词through的宾语，所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【65题详解】

改错
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要描述了作者去吉尔巴岛旅行的经历。
【详解】1.考查副词。句意：这是我去过的最吸引人的地方之一。分析句子结构可知，此处要用副词truly作状语，修饰动词。故将true改为truly。
2.考查名词。句意：这是我去过的最吸引人的地方之一。根据“one of the most attractive”可知，后面加名词复数，表示“最……的之一”。故将destination改为destinations。
3.考查时态。句意：我必须承认我以前从未见过如此美丽的海岸线。根据句意可知，“承认”是过去的动作，“看见”这一动作发生在“承认”之前，故用过去完成时。故将have改为had。
4.考查连词。句意：我大部分时间都在海滩上散步，享受着阳光和平静的海浪声。分析句意可知，“walking on the beach”和“enjoying the sun and the peaceful sound of the waves”是并列关系，不是转折关系。故将but改为and。
5.考查数词。句意：在那里的第四天，我参观了一些当地的景点，包括El Ghriba犹太教堂。根据句意可知，“在第四天，参观了一些景点”，用序数词表示。故将four改为fourth。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意：在那里的第四天，我参观了一些当地的景点，包括El Ghriba犹太教堂。句中已有谓语动词“took and visited”，“local attractions”和“include”之间是主动关系，故用现在分词。故将included改为including。
7.考查冠词。句意：那是一次难忘的经历。泛指“一次经历”，要用不定冠词修饰名词，unforgettable以元音音素开头需用不定冠词an。故将unforgettable前面加an。
8.考查介词。句意：总的来说，我觉得很幸运，因为一切都比我想象的好。根据“everything was good than I could ever imagine”可知，because引导了原因状语从句，because of后只能跟名词、短语等作宾语，不能接从句。故将because后删掉of。
9.考查形容词。句意：总的来说，我觉得很幸运，因为一切都比我想象的好。根据“than I could ever imagine”可知，要用形容词比较级。故将good改为better。
10.考查动名词。句意：我期待着下次探索这个美丽的国家。looking forward to doing sth表示“期待做某事”，用动名词作宾语。故将explore改为exploring。
