After cllege I wanted t make a difference in the wrld，s I jined the Peace Crps and became a vlunteer teacher in Namibia，my cuntry f assignment(任务).Hnestly,my first chice wasn't Africa，but I am extremely grateful that I was sent there.
Varius tribes and racial grups live in Namibia and a number f languages are spken.When Namibia gained independence in 1990,English became the fficial language.Teachers were suppsed t teach in English,but many lacked the language skills t d s.My jb was t train the teachers.
Schls were quite bare．Sme classrms cnsisted merely f sticks stuck in the sand and a metal rf.Each student had nly ne threadbare unifrm.The students had exhausting days.They walked miles t get t schl,ften bareft.They als did many daily chres.Even with their muntains f wrk，few pssessins and little pprtunity,these children were jyful.I admired that.
This was my first time living abrad in a different culture.Simply adapting t the living cnditins was a big adjustment.I had n electricity，running water,phne r Internet.Imagine n air cnditining where the temperature was ften abve 38 degrees Celsius! Hwever,I culd end each day with a splendid African sunset.And at night,I culd have an incredible pllutin-free view f the entire Milky Way(银河).
Befre Namibia，I never thught a girl like me wuld adapt t such an envirnment.My experience awakened me t nt nly the limitatins we place n urselves，but als ur amazing ability t adapt.
Step utside f yur cmfrt zne and thrw yurself in anther culture.Yu wn't regret it.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者到非洲做志愿者的工作经历以及感悟。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“Namibia gained independence in 1990”可知，纳米比亚在1990年获得独立，所以在1990年以前纳米比亚是被其他国家统治的，故选C。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“ften bareft”以及“few pssessins”可知，孩子们的生活非常艰苦，而且由画线词前面的“nly ne”可知，他们每人仅有一件校服，所以“threadbare”应表示“破旧的”，故只有D项“shabby”符合语境，故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Simply adapting t the living cnditins was a big adjustment．”(仅仅是适应生活条件就需要很大的调整)可知作者适应了当地的生活环境，体现出其适应能力很强。根据“I had n electricity，running water，phne r Internet．Imagine n air cnditining where the temperature was ften abve 38 degrees Celsius! ”(没有电，没有自来水，没有电话，也没有互联网。想象一下，没有空调，那里的温度往往高于38摄氏度)可知纳米比亚的生活条件很艰苦，可是作者却能“end each day with a splendid African sunset”(在灿烂的非洲日落中结束每一天)以及“have an incredible pllutin-free view f the entire Milky Way”(欣赏瑰丽的银河系)，由此可知，作者是一个非常乐观的人，故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I am extremely grateful that I was sent there”(我很感激被派到那里)以及倒数第二段中的“My experience awakened me t nt nly the limitatins we place n urselves，but als ur amazing ability t adapt.”（我的经历不仅让我意识到我们给自己设置的限制，也让我意识到我们惊人的适应能力）和最后一段内容可知，这段经历让作者意识到走出自己的舒适区并且在另一个环境中挑战自己的极限的重要意义，所以关于这段经历她心存感激。C项中的“challenging her limits”照应了文中的“awakened me t nt nly the limitatins”，故选C。
C
Children with strng family cnnectins are assciated with a high likelihd f flurishing in life, a study fund. “What is different abut this study is that it shws that family cnnectin is assciated with thriving and nt just surviving r aviding harm,” said lead study authr Dr. Rbert Whitaker.
Researchers surveyed ver 37,000 children in 26 cuntries. In the study, family cnnectin was determined by a mean scre f five categries: care, supprt, safety, respect, and participatin. Flurishing was determined by a mean scre f six categries: self-acceptance, purpse in life, psitive relatins with thers, persnal grwth, envirnmental mastery and autnmy. The essence f family cnnectin is children feeling that they are accepted and cared fr at hme, which allws them t learn what their strengths and weaknesses are in a safe envirnment as they are building their identity,Whitaker said.

The highest scres in bth family cnnectin and flurishing came frm children wh said they lived with bth parents, had enugh fd r never had their family wrrying abut finances. Researchers then cntrlled the data fr families’ pverty levels t remve the effect they might have had n the numbers. After cntrlling the data, the strength f family cnnectin still impacted hw much children flurished.
Accrding t Whitaker, adults have a very pwerful influence n the emtinal climate in the hme, s it’s imprtant t create a space where children feel seen and heard. A great pprtunity t strengthen family bnds is arund the dinner table. Adults shuld create an envirnment where children feel cmfrtable speaking freely. While they are talking,grwn-ups shuld shw that they have a genuine interest in what their children are saying. Silence is als anther pwerful frm f cmmunicatin, Whitaker said. Children and parents spending time tgether in silence r even ding chres can create a cnnectin.
28. What is the study mainly abut?
A. The imprtance f family cnnectin t children’s survival.
B. The relatinship between family cnnectin and children’s success.
C. The factrs affecting children’ self-acceptance.
D. The impact f pverty n children’s develpment.

推理判断题。根据第一段的“Children with strng family cnnectins are assciated with a high likelihd f flurishing in life, a study fund. “What is different abut this study is that it shws that family cnnectin is assciated with thriving and nt just surviving r aviding harm, ” said lead study authr Dr. Rbert Whitaker. (一项研究发现，家庭关系紧密的孩子更有可能在生活中取得成功。该研究的主要作者Rbert Whitaker博士说：“这项研究的不同之处在于，它表明家庭关系与孩子的成长有关，而不仅仅是为了孩子的生存或使其避免伤害。”)”可推知，这项研究的主要内容是家庭关系和孩子的成功之间的关系。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The highest scres in bth family cnnectin and flurishing came frm children wh said they lived with bth parents, had enugh fd r never had their family wrrying abut finances. (在家庭关系和成长两方面得分最高的是那些和父母都住在一起的孩子，他们有足够的食物，或者从来没有让家人担心过经济问题)”可知，有完整的家庭和经济保障的孩子们更有可能在家庭关系和个人发展两方面都获得高分。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了很多语言和方言正在濒临灭绝，所以濒危语言文献项目成立于2002年，旨在保护濒临灭绝的语言。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：语言和方言正在以惊人的速度消亡。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：at a rate意为“以……的速度”，空后是alarming，为原因音素开头，所以应该用an。故填an。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意：世界上说得最少的语言往往只被少数小社区的长者说。分析句子结构可知，空前是形容词small，所以空处应填名词，cmmunity意为“社区”，为可数名词，根据空前的a few可知，应该用复数形式。故填cmmunities。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：对于那些试图在全球经济中立足的人来说，学习一门即将消亡的语言很少有吸引力，所以年轻一代通常不会从父母或祖父母那里学习这些语言。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，从句缺少主语，应该用关系代词，先行词为peple，指人，所以应该用wh或者that引导。故填wh或者that。
【59题详解】
考查介词。句意：对于那些试图在全球经济中立足的人来说，学习一门即将消亡的语言很少有吸引力，所以年轻一代通常不会从父母或祖父母那里学习这些语言。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：learn sth. frm sb.意为“向某人学某事”。故填frm。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这些濒临灭绝的语言大多也缺乏书写系统，这使得保存它们成为更大的挑战。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词lack，所以make应该用非谓语动词形式，其中“使得保存它们成为更大的挑战”，表示正在进行的动作，所以此处应该用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。
【61题详解】
考查宾语从句连接词。句意：在这种损失惊人的情况下，机构和项目正试图拯救剩下的东西。分析句子机构可知，空处引导的是宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，所以应该用连接代词引导，根据句意，此处指物，应该用what引导。故填what。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：濒危语言文献项目成立于2002年，旨在保护濒临灭绝的语言。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语动词，所以fund作谓语，主语是The Endangered Languages Dcumentatin Prgramme ，为第三人称单数，同时两者间是被动关系，所以应该用被动语态，再根据时间状语in 2002，可知应该用一般过去时。故填was funded。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它不仅资助学者开发的个别项目，而且在伦敦和世界各地提供培训，帮助准备研究工作所需的方法。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词funds，所以develp应该用非谓语形式，根据空后的by表“被”之意，所以应该用过去分词表被动。故填develped。
64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它不仅资助学者开发的个别项目，而且在伦敦和世界各地提供培训，帮助准备研究工作所需的方法。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词 prvides，所以help应该用非谓语形式，此处应该用不定式，作目的状语。故填t help。
【65题详解】
考查副词。句意：记录语言的目的一定不是简单地把它们像蝴蝶一样钉在墙上。分析句子结构可知，空后是动词be，所以空处应填副词修饰动词，simple的副词形式是simply。

After cllege I wanted t make a difference in the wrld，s I jined the Peace Crps and became a vlunteer teacher in Namibia，my cuntry f assignment(任务).Hnestly,my first chice wasn't Africa，but I am extremely grateful that I was sent there.
Varius tribes and racial grups live in Namibia and a number f languages are spken.When Namibia gained independence in 1990,English became the fficial language.Teachers were suppsed t teach in English,but many lacked the language skills t d s.My jb was t train the teachers.
Schls were quite bare．Sme classrms cnsisted merely f sticks stuck in the sand and a metal rf.Each student had nly ne threadbare unifrm.The students had exhausting days.They walked miles t get t schl,ften bareft.They als did many daily chres.Even with their muntains f wrk，few pssessins and little pprtunity,these children were jyful.I admired that.
This was my first time living abrad in a different culture.Simply adapting t the living cnditins was a big adjustment.I had n electricity，running water,phne r Internet.Imagine n air cnditining where the temperature was ften abve 38 degrees Celsius! Hwever,I culd end each day with a splendid African sunset.And at night,I culd have an incredible pllutin-free view f the entire Milky Way(银河).
Befre Namibia，I never thught a girl like me wuld adapt t such an envirnment.My experience awakened me t nt nly the limitatins we place n urselves，but als ur amazing ability t adapt.
Step utside f yur cmfrt zne and thrw yurself in anther culture.Yu wn't regret it.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者到非洲做志愿者的工作经历以及感悟。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“Namibia gained independence in 1990”可知，纳米比亚在1990年获得独立，所以在1990年以前纳米比亚是被其他国家统治的，故选C。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“ften bareft”以及“few pssessins”可知，孩子们的生活非常艰苦，而且由画线词前面的“nly ne”可知，他们每人仅有一件校服，所以“threadbare”应表示“破旧的”，故只有D项“shabby”符合语境，故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Simply adapting t the living cnditins was a big adjustment．”(仅仅是适应生活条件就需要很大的调整)可知作者适应了当地的生活环境，体现出其适应能力很强。根据“I had n electricity，running water，phne r Internet．Imagine n air cnditining where the temperature was ften abve 38 degrees Celsius! ”(没有电，没有自来水，没有电话，也没有互联网。想象一下，没有空调，那里的温度往往高于38摄氏度)可知纳米比亚的生活条件很艰苦，可是作者却能“end each day with a splendid African sunset”(在灿烂的非洲日落中结束每一天)以及“have an incredible pllutin-free view f the entire Milky Way”(欣赏瑰丽的银河系)，由此可知，作者是一个非常乐观的人，故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I am extremely grateful that I was sent there”(我很感激被派到那里)以及倒数第二段中的“My experience awakened me t nt nly the limitatins we place n urselves，but als ur amazing ability t adapt.”（我的经历不仅让我意识到我们给自己设置的限制，也让我意识到我们惊人的适应能力）和最后一段内容可知，这段经历让作者意识到走出自己的舒适区并且在另一个环境中挑战自己的极限的重要意义，所以关于这段经历她心存感激。C项中的“challenging her limits”照应了文中的“awakened me t nt nly the limitatins”，故选C。

Children with strng family cnnectins are assciated with a high likelihd f flurishing in life, a study fund. “What is different abut this study is that it shws that family cnnectin is assciated with thriving and nt just surviving r aviding harm,” said lead study authr Dr. Rbert Whitaker.
Researchers surveyed ver 37,000 children in 26 cuntries. In the study, family cnnectin was determined by a mean scre f five categries: care, supprt, safety, respect, and participatin. Flurishing was determined by a mean scre f six categries: self-acceptance, purpse in life, psitive relatins with thers, persnal grwth, envirnmental mastery and autnmy. The essence f family cnnectin is children feeling that they are accepted and cared fr at hme, which allws them t learn what their strengths and weaknesses are in a safe envirnment as they are building their identity,Whitaker said.

The highest scres in bth family cnnectin and flurishing came frm children wh said they lived with bth parents, had enugh fd r never had their family wrrying abut finances. Researchers then cntrlled the data fr families’ pverty levels t remve the effect they might have had n the numbers. After cntrlling the data, the strength f family cnnectin still impacted hw much children flurished.
Accrding t Whitaker, adults have a very pwerful influence n the emtinal climate in the hme, s it’s imprtant t create a space where children feel seen and heard. A great pprtunity t strengthen family bnds is arund the dinner table. Adults shuld create an envirnment where children feel cmfrtable speaking freely. While they are talking,grwn-ups shuld shw that they have a genuine interest in what their children are saying. Silence is als anther pwerful frm f cmmunicatin, Whitaker said. Children and parents spending time tgether in silence r even ding chres can create a cnnectin.
28. What is the study mainly abut?
A. The imprtance f family cnnectin t children’s survival.
B. The relatinship between family cnnectin and children’s success.
C. The factrs affecting children’ self-acceptance.

(一项研究发现，家庭关系紧密的孩子更有可能在生活中取得成功。该研究的主要作者Rbert Whitaker博士说：“这项研究的不同之处在于，它表明家庭关系与孩子的成长有关，而不仅仅是为了孩子的生存或使其避免伤害。”)”可推知，这项研究的主要内容是家庭关系和孩子的成功之间的关系。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The highest scres in bth family cnnectin and flurishing came frm children wh said they lived with bth parents, had enugh fd r never had their family wrrying abut finances. (在家庭关系和成长两方面得分最高的是那些和父母都住在一起的孩子，他们有足够的食物，或者从来没有让家人担心过经济问题)”可知，有完整的家庭和经济保障的孩子们更有可能在家庭关系和个人发展两方面都获得高分。故选D项。

With almst all big emplyers in the United States nw using artificial intelligence (AI) and autmatin in their hiring prcesses, the public is cnsidering sme urgent questins: Hw can yu prevent discriminatin in hiring when a machine is keeping the discriminatin? What kind f methds might help?
Sme 83% f emplyers, including 99% f Frtune 500 cmpanies, nw use sme frm f autmated tls as part f their hiring prcess, said the Equal Emplyment Opprtunity Cmmissin’s ( EEOC) chair Charltte Burrws, at a hearing n Tuesday. She said everyne needs t speak up n the debate ver these technlgies. “The risks are simply t high t leave this tpic just t the experts.”
Last year, the EEOC issued sme guidance arund the use f cutting-edge hiring tls, nting many f their shrtcmings. The agency fund that resume( 简历) scanners which priritize keywrds and prgrams which evaluate a candidate’s facial expressins and speech patterns in vide interviews can create discriminatin. Take, fr example, a vide interview that analyses an applicant’s speech patterns t determine their ability t slve prblems. A persn with a speech prblem might scre lw and autmatically be screened ut. The prblem will be fr the EEOC t rt ut discriminatin r stp it frm taking place.
The EEOC is cnsidering the mst apprpriate ways t handle the prblem. It’s agreed that inspectins are necessary t ensure that the sftware used by cmpanies avids intentinal r unintentinal discriminatin. But wh wuld cnduct thse inspectins is a mre challenging questin. Each ptin presents risks, Burrws pinted ut. A third party may turn a blind eye t its clients, while a gvernment-led inspectin culd ptentially stp innvatin.
In previus remarks, Burrws has nted the great ptential that AI decisin making tls have t imprve the lives f Americans, but nly when used prperly. “We must wrk t ensure that these new technlgies d nt becme a high-tech pathway t discriminatin,” she said.
32. What des Burrws suggest peple d?
A. Make their wn vice heard.B. Fllw the experts’ suggestins.
C. Stp using AI in hiring prcesses.D. Watch debates abut technlgies.
33. Hw might prgrams in vide interviews select emplyees?
A. By scanning keywrds.B. By evaluating resumes.
C. By analyzing persnalities.D. By assessing speech patterns.
34. What is a pssible utcme f third-party inspectins?
A. High expense.B. Unfair results.
C. Age discriminatin.D. Innvatin interruptin.
35. What is Burrws’s attitude t AI decisin-making tls?
A. Favurable.B. Disapprving.C. Cautius.D. Dubtful.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是由于美国几乎所有的大雇主都在招聘过程中使用人工智能和自动化，公众正在考虑一些紧迫的问题：当机器保持歧视时，如何防止招聘时的歧视以及什么方法会有所帮助。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“She said everyne needs t speak up n the debate ver these technlgies. “The risks are simply t high t leave this tpic just t the experts.”(她说，每个人都需要就有关这些技术的辩论进行公开发言。“风险实在是太高了，不能把这个问题只留给专家们。”)”可知Burrws建议人们就有关这些技术的辩论进行公开发言，即Burrws建议人们让人听到他们自己的声音。故选A项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The agency fund that resume (简历) scanners that priritize keywrds and prgrams that evaluate a candidate’s facial expressins and speech patterns in vide interviews can create discriminatin. Take, fr example, a vide interview that analyzes an applicant’s speech patterns t determine their ability t slve prblems. (该机构发现，在视频面试中，优先考虑关键词和程序的简历扫描仪可能会造成歧视。例如，一个视频面试，分析申请人的语言模式，以确定他们解决问题的能力。)”可知，视频采访中的程序通过分析评估申请人的语言模式来选择员工。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“It’s agreed that inspectins are necessary t ensure that the sftware used by cmpanies avids intentinal r unintentinal discriminatin. But wh wuld cnduct thse inspectins is a mre challenging questin. Each ptin presents risks, Burrws pinted ut. A third party may turn a blind eye t its clients, while a gvernment-led inspectin culd ptentially stp innvatin.(大家一致认为有必要进行检查，以确保公司使用的软件能够避免故意或无意的歧视。但谁来进行这些检查则是一个更具挑战性的问题。Burrws指出，每一种选择都存在风险。第三方可能会对其客户视而不见，而政府主导的检查也可能会阻止创新。)”可知，第三方会对客户视而不见，所以可以推测第三方的检查结果可能会带来不公平的结果。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In previus remarks, Burrws has nted the great ptential that AI decisin-making tls have t imprve the lives f Americans, but nly when used prperly. “We must wrk t ensure that these new technlgies d nt becme a high-tech pathway t discriminatin,” she said.(在之前的讲话中，Burrws指出，决策工具使用恰当的话具有改善美国人生活的巨大潜力。“我们必须努力确保这些新技术不会成为导致歧视的高科技途径。”她说。)”可知Burrws认为人工智能决策工具如果使用恰当的话具有可以改善美国人生活的潜力，所以我们必须努力确保这些新技术不会成为导致歧视的高科技途径，由此可以推出Burrws对于人工智能决策工具的态度是谨慎的。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了很多语言和方言正在濒临灭绝，所以濒危语言文献项目成立于2002年，旨在保护濒临灭绝的语言。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：语言和方言正在以惊人的速度消亡。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：at a rate意为“以……的速度”，空后是alarming，为原因音素开头，所以应该用an。故填an。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意：世界上说得最少的语言往往只被少数小社区的长者说。分析句子结构可知，空前是形容词small，所以空处应填名词，cmmunity意为“社区”，为可数名词，根据空前的a few可知，应该用复数形式。故填cmmunities。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：对于那些试图在全球经济中立足的人来说，学习一门即将消亡的语言很少有吸引力，所以年轻一代通常不会从父母或祖父母那里学习这些语言。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，从句缺少主语，应该用关系代词，先行词为peple，指人，所以应该用wh或者that引导。故填wh或者that。
【59题详解】
考查介词。句意：对于那些试图在全球经济中立足的人来说，学习一门即将消亡的语言很少有吸引力，所以年轻一代通常不会从父母或祖父母那里学习这些语言。分析句子结构可知，此处考查固定搭配：learn sth. frm sb.意为“向某人学某事”。故填frm。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这些濒临灭绝的语言大多也缺乏书写系统，这使得保存它们成为更大的挑战。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词lack，所以make应该用非谓语动词形式，其中“使得保存它们成为更大的挑战”，表示正在进行的动作，所以此处应该用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。
【61题详解】
考查宾语从句连接词。句意：在这种损失惊人的情况下，机构和项目正试图拯救剩下的东西。分析句子机构可知，空处引导的是宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，所以应该用连接代词引导，根据句意，此处指物，应该用what引导。故填what。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：濒危语言文献项目成立于2002年，旨在保护濒临灭绝的语言。分析句子结构可知，本句缺少谓语动词，所以fund作谓语，主语是The Endangered Languages Dcumentatin Prgramme ，为第三人称单数，同时两者间是被动关系，所以应该用被动语态，再根据时间状语in 2002，可知应该用一般过去时。故填was funded。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它不仅资助学者开发的个别项目，而且在伦敦和世界各地提供培训，帮助准备研究工作所需的方法。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词funds，所以develp应该用非谓语形式，根据空后的by表“被”之意，所以应该用过去分词表被动。故填develped。
64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它不仅资助学者开发的个别项目，而且在伦敦和世界各地提供培训，帮助准备研究工作所需的方法。分析句子结构可知，本句已有谓语动词 prvides，所以help应该用非谓语形式，此处应该用不定式，作目的状语。故填t help。
【65题详解】
考查副词。句意：记录语言的目的一定不是简单地把它们像蝴蝶一样钉在墙上。分析句子结构可知，空后是动词be，所以空处应填副词修饰动词，simple的副词形式是simply。
