B.Understanding.C.Objective. D.Unfavorable.3.For those who are against gene editing technology,their reasons are as follows EXCEPT . A.gene editing can determine everything inside a person’s bodyB.gene editing may widen the gap between the rich and the poorC.gene editing may enable wealthy parents to design their babiesD.gene editing can cause genetic problems sooner or later in lifeBOne of my first international trips as an adult was traveling around the Caribbean.I checked into my hotel in Jamaica and asked for a recommendation fora local place to eat.The receptionist(接待员) told me that never should I go into the town because it was really dangerous there,but that to my luck—the hotel’s restaurant offered wonderful Caribbean food.I thought about it carefully:Did I really want to spend all my time on the beach without getting to know a single local?I was a very inexperienced traveler and very young,but there was only one answer to my question:Absolutely not.I was not going to be visiting a new place and staying in a hotel chain.So out I went.After only seeing fancy resorts(度假胜地),the reality was hard to swallow.The poverty(贫穷) hit me in the face.A few locals walked to me and were super curious as to what I was doing there in their town,since most tourists didn’t go there.I told them I was interested in meeting them and experiencing their culture.And just like that,I was embraced.I met more local people,had some food,and then we danced the night away.They had so little,yet they wanted to share it with me.They wanted to make me feel welcome.And they absolutely did.The next morning all I could think about was how all the money most tourists spend goes to big businesses.The locals have to be thankful if they get a job that pays very low wage,while foreign businesses earn millions.I have always cared about environmental protection,but this trip made it clear that sustainability(可持续发展) goes well beyond nature and wildlife.From then on I always look for locally-owned hotels,eateries,guides,and souvenirs(纪念品).Sustainability,with everything it includes,became a motto(座右铭) for me and changed the way I travel.4.What did the receptionist recommend to the author?A.Safe resorts.B.Local souvenirs.C.A tour guide.D.The hotel’s restaurant.5.Why were the locals curious when they met the author?A.Because the author traveled alone.B.Because the author was a young traveler.C.Because they seldom saw tourists in their town.D.Because they wondered about the author’s experiences.6.What can we learn about the locals?A.They lived a hard life but were kind.B.They were hardworking but earned little.C.They had a rich culture but were shy to share it.D.They were poorly educated but did business well.7.Why did the author change the way he travels?A.To reduce the cost of travel.B.To protect nature and wildlife.C.To learn more about the natives.D.To help develop the local economy.C(2023湖北武汉部分重点中学期中联考)Back in the early 2000s,lots of people couldn’t have imagined life without alarm clocks,CD players,calendars,cameras,or lots of other devices.But along came the iPhone and other smartphones,and they took over the functions of dozens of things that we used to think were essential.The smartphone story could even be a model for fighting climate change;not because smartphones use a small part of the energy of all the things they replace—although they do—but because they represent a different approach to design in general.And that approach is to focus on function rather than form.That requires focusing on understanding the underlying problem,and then engineering a wide range of potential solutions.This approach could revolutionize how we think about energy efficiency.Traditionally,improvements in energy efficiency have mostly focused on individual devices,which can be quite fruitful.But focusing on individual devices is like if Apple had spent effort inventing a better alarm clock,a better CD player,a better calendar,and a better camera.Now with an iPhone,we don’t need the standalone devices at all,because it can function as all of them.So,when it comes to using energy efficiently,rather than just installing a more efficient heater,some people have focused instead on the desired function:staying warm.They designed and coated their house so well that they could get rid of their heater altogether,letting them heat their house with 99% less energy.In the same way,rather than just making cars more efficient,what if we focus on the desired function—getting where we want and when we want—and create an efficient transportation system where we can drive less or get rid of our personal cars entirely?The most energy-efficient car or heater is no car,or no heater,while still being able to get around and stay warm.In other words,it’s not thinking efficient;it’s thinking different.8.What makes the iPhone a good example of environmental protection?A.Perfecting individual devices.B.Combining possible functions.C.Adopting a simplest design.D.Reducing the energy consumption.9.According to the passage,what is the core of improving energy efficiency?A.Using recyclable materials.B.Revolutionizing technologies.C.Figuring out various solutions.D.Concentrating on the essential needs.10.What does the author think of traditional practices in energy improvements?A.Conventional. B.Out-of-date.C.Adequate. D.Perfect.11.What can we learn from the passage?A.Think out of the box.B.Differences make it unique.C.Be economical with energy.D.Step out of the comfort zone.Ⅴ.七选五The Olympic spirit is about sportsmanship,personal sacrifice,and a strong will to reach your goals. 1 Instead,it’s a source of motivation to keep going and try to improve every day. The importance of the Olympic spirit goes far beyond the sports events.And it’s not just for professional athletes,either. 2 Its goal is to encourage everyone,as people,and as citizens,to incorporate (使并入) these values into their lives. It’s not easy to describe the Olympic spirit in words.Yet everyone who meets it probably knows what it means.One central aspect is having the knowledge that the greatest reward doesn’t lie in getting to a particular goal or victory. 3 Of course,we’re not trying to suggest that victory means nothing to an athlete or that goals aren’t important.When we speak of personal or professional dreams or goals,we’re aware that reaching the objective is always one’s greatest wish.Nevertheless,we shouldn’t forget that victory is the result of a long process.It’s only possible through the effort that leads up to it. 4 Everyone who manages to gain victory has to travel a long way to get there.And it must necessarily include some failures and disappointments,but must never end with the person giving up. Let’s take a track and field race as an example—just to keep going along the line of this sports thread. 5 But all of the competitors are going to give the best of themselves throughout the competition.And you can expect they’ll continue to do so just to improve themselves even after the race. A.Always try to achieve perfection.B.The Olympic spirit speaks to all of us.C.It’s about the promotion of certain values.D.There are no people who are born champions.E.Instead,the process itself is the greatest reward.F.Another person’s success is no reason to give up or envy.G.There can only be one winner at the end of every track or trial.Ⅵ.完形填空My husband and I bought a house when we were in our 50’s.It was 1 but beautiful because there was an old Japanese red pine tree which looked like a large bonsai(盆栽) in its front 2 .For 20 years it had been a 3 to all who passed by.It shaded(遮住光线) my small garden of different flowers that I’d planted for 4 .

It’s not easy to describe the Olympic spirit in words.Yet everyone who meets it probably knows what it means.One central aspect is having the knowledge that the greatest reward doesn’t lie in getting to a particular goal or victory. 3 Of course,we’re not trying to suggest that victory means nothing to an athlete or that goals aren’t important.When we speak of personal or professional dreams or goals,we’re aware that reaching the objective is always one’s greatest wish.Nevertheless,we shouldn’t forget that victory is the result of a long process.It’s only possible through the effort that leads up to it. 4 Everyone who manages to gain victory has to travel a long way to get there.And it must necessarily include some failures and disappointments,but must never end with the person giving up. Let’s take a track and field race as an example—just to keep going along the line of this sports thread. 5 But all of the competitors are going to give the best of themselves throughout the competition.And you can expect they’ll continue to do so just to improve themselves even after the race. A.Always try to achieve perfection.B.The Olympic spirit speaks to all of us.C.It’s about the promotion of certain values.D.There are no people who are born champions.E.Instead,the process itself is the greatest reward.F.Another person’s success is no reason to give up or envy.G.There can only be one winner at the end of every track or trial.Ⅵ.完形填空My husband and I bought a house when we were in our 50’s.It was 1 but beautiful because there was an old Japanese red pine tree which looked like a large bonsai(盆栽) in its front 2 .For 20 years it had been a 3 to all who passed by.It shaded(遮住光线) my small garden of different flowers that I’d planted for 4 .
