In 1959, Handler changed hw ty dlls were made when she intrduced “Barbie” t the wrld.
With her mature figure, Barbie was ne f the first “grwn-up” dlls t hit the retail market.
Handler wanted t create a ty that was different frm the baby dlls that ccupied little girls’
ty bxes. She wanted a dll that girls culd shw their future dreams upn and allwed fr limitless
utfit (全套服装) and career chices. Inspired by paper dlls f the time, Handler, t much
disagreement, made sure Barbie had the bdy f a grwn wman.
“My wn idea f Barbie,” Handler wrte in her autbigraphy, “was that thrugh the dll, the
little girl culd be anything she wanted t be. Barbie always represented the fact that a wman had
chices.”
There’s even a Barbie fr cancer patients — Brave Barbie — a partnership between Mattel and
CureSearch that sends a bald (光头的) Barbie t families affected by cancer. “Gifting my daughter a
Barbie wh suffered frm cancer was wnderful,” Michelle, a cancer survivr said, “We wuld play
with that Barbie tgether and I’d heartbreakingly watch her pretend t take the dll t the hspital fr
chem (化疗), r place its lng wig (假发) n tp f its head and tell the dll that it’s time t be
beautiful again.”
Bald Barbie was super brave and went n awesme adventures after chem. Smetimes she felt
sick and needed t sleep, but wuld feel much better after a rest. Bald Barbie always beat the cancer
and went n t live a lng and happy life with her family. That Barbie became s much mre than a
plastic dll — she was a means f cmmunicatin and a cping mechanism (应对机制) during an
extremely unhappy time fr little families.
24. Why did Handler create Barbie?
A. T make a hit in the wmen’s retail market.
B. T appeal t bys with her varius clthing.
C. T inspire girls t make chices as they wish.
D. T d a research n wmen’s career chices.

C. Delighted and ashamed. D. Heartbrken and regretful.
26. What des Brave Barbie mean t Michelle’s family?

In the rich cuntries f the West, the electric vehicle revlutin is well ccurring. Climate-
cnscius cnsumers drive Teslas r Plestars fr reasns f mrality (道德) and fashin. Prer
cuntries are als experiencing a wave f electrified trend. In Bangladesh, electric three-wheeler taxis,
knwn as tuk-tuks, are rapidly replacing gas-pwered nes n the streets. Such electric vehicles are
climate friendly, cst effective, and help reduce air pllutin.
Yet a glance under the hd (引擎盖) f these vehicles shws a pisnus secret: each tuk-tuk
runs n five massive lead-acid batteries (铅酸电池), cntaining almst 300 punds f lead (铅) in
ttal. Every year and a half r s, when thse batteries need t be replaced and recycled, abut 60
punds f lead leaks int the envirnment. Battery recycling, ften at small-scale unregulated
factries, is a highly prfitable (高利润的) but deadly business.
Lead is dangerus, and any expsure t it is harmful t human health. Lead that has entered the
envirnment hurts peple n an unexpected scale. The numerus ways lead enters air, water, sil, and
hmes acrss the develping wrld and the enrmus damage it des t human health, wealth, and
welfare cause ne f the biggest envirnmental prblems in the wrld yet receives little attentin.
The Wrld Bank estimates that lead kills 5.5 millin peple per year, making it a bigger glbal
killer than AIDS, malaria, diabetes, and rad traffic deaths cmbined. On tp f the shcking deaths,
the scial burden f lead pisning is heavy, as is its cntributin t glbal inequality — ur research
n the cgnitive (认知的) effects f lead pisning suggests that it may explain abut ne-fifth f the
educatinal achievement gap between rich and pr cuntries.
But unlike many challenges faced by develping cuntries, lead pisning is a prblem that can
be reslved thrugh financial investment (财政投入). Better mnitring, research, and rules can help
prtect children all ver the wrld frm the unpleasant effects f lead pisning and reduce the
massive glbal csts it brings.
28. Hw des the authr describe the lead prblem in paragraph 2?
A. By listing sme numbers.
B. By analyzing hidden causes.
C. By making an interesting cmparisn.
D. By explaining its wrking principle.
29. What can we learn abut lead’s harm frm the text?
A. Lead enters pr cuntries in ne way.
B. Lead leaking has been avided in all the cuntries.
C. Lead will definitely nt harm anymre.
D. Lead pisning may make pr scieties prer.
30. What can be dne t slve lead pisning in develping cuntries?
第 5 页 共 10 页
A. Fixing these used batteries.
B. Reducing the cst f recycling lead.
C. Ignring the illegal use f lead.
D. Putting certain effrt and mney.
31. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. The Impacts f Lead Pisning n Man.
B. The Glbal Lead Pisning Prblem.
C. The Ways t Slve Lead Prblem.
D. The Benefits f Using Electric Vehicles.

Digital reading (数字阅读) appears t be destrying habits f “deep reading”. Astnishing
numbers f peple with years f schling are in fact illiterate (文盲). This mnth's Ljubljana
Manifest (宣言) explains: “The digital field may prmte mre reading than ever in histry, but it
als ffers many attractins t read in a casual and scattered (零散的) manner— r even nt t read
at all. This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.”
That's frightening, because “higher-level reading” has been necessary t civilizatin. It made the
understanding and an internatinal increase in empathy (共鸣). Withut it, we wuld suffer a lt. As
the Ljubljana Manifest ntes, “as much as ne-third f Eurpeans struggle even with lwer-level
reading skills.” Mre than ne-fifth f adults in the US “fall int the illiterate/functinally illiterate
categry”. Separately, pst-pandemic (后疫情时期) reading scres fr American13-year-lds are the
lwest in decades. And the Washingtn-based Center fr Glbal Develpment recently estimated that
literacy (读写能力) in Suth Asia and sub-Saharan Africa amng thse with five years f schling
has decreased by 10% this past half century.
Experts in the Ljubljana Manifest recrd the demerits f digital reading: “Recent studies f
varius kinds indicate a decline f thughtful reading, slw reading and lng-frm reading.” When
yu read a bk n paper, yu can be entirely inside the experience, absrb hundreds f pages f
details thrughly and begin t catch the wrld's cmplexity. Online, says Maryanne Wlf f UCLA,
we are “skimming, scanning and scrlling”. The medium is the message: ding deep reading n yur
phne is as hard as playing tennis with yur phne. Recently, a bright 11-year-ld by tld me I was
wasting time n bks: he absrbed mre infrmatin faster frm websites. He had a pint. But
digital readers als absrb mre misinfrmatin and seldm absrb fine pinins.
In shrt, as prfessrs frm Nrthwestern University predicted in 2005, we are returning t the
days when nly an elite (精英) “reading class” reads lng texts, which is wrrying.
32. What can we learn abut digital reading frm paragraph 1?
A. Digital reading has weakened the practice f deep reading.
B. Digital reading has slved the prblem f illiteracy.
C. Digital reading has made deep reading accessible t wider readers.
D. Digital reading has caused a greater appreciatin fr deep reading.
33. What’s the secnd paragraph mainly abut?
第 6 页 共 10 页
A. Digital reading’s great ppularity.
B. The imprtance f deep reading.
C. American students’ reading skills.
D. The lwering f the level f literacy.
34.What des the underlined wrd “demerits” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Functins. B. Depths. C. Shrtcmings. D. Features.
35.What might be talked abut in the fllwing paragraph?
A. Advantages f digital reading. B. Measures t practice deep reading.
C. Ways t encurage digital reading. D. Benefits f lwer-level reading.

It has becme easy fr students t find and cpy published material. But cpying anther
persn’s writing withut giving them credit can get students and ther schlars int big truble. 36
American law prtects riginal wrks f authrship including bks, mvies, music,
images and artwrks. 37 The wner can sell a r permit thers t use it because
prperty and prperty wnership are prtected by law in the U. S.
The idea is that helps sciety. If peple can gain frm their wn creatins, which are
called their intellectual prperty (知识产权), then mre peple will want t create riginal wrks.
But the law permits the unlicensed (未经许可的) use f ed (版权的) wrks under what is
called fair use. Fair use can include criticism, cmment, news reprting, educatin and research. 38
In educatin, students can include small parts f ed wrk in their writing and research.
Hwever, they must prvide credit t the riginal creatrs thrugh a citatin (引用) which gives
details abut the surce.
Just as it is easy t cpy, it is als easy fr prfessrs t knw if a student has plagiarized. First,
there are cmputer prgrams and artificial intelligence, tls that cmpare students’ papers t large
databases f published writing. 39 Secnd, if English is nt a student’s first language, a prfessr
might recgnize a change in wrding and writing style. This culd bring mre attentin t the
student’s paper.
40 Prfessrs culd simply warn a student nt t d it again, lwer their grade, r they might
fail the student in that class. In mre extreme cases, a student may be temprarily banned r expelled
(开除) frm schl.
A. Hwever, there are sme limitatins.

C. Plagiarism is punished in different ways.
D. Students must fllw university plicies n academic behavir.
E. They can identify whether students have cpied published writing.
