When I was a little by grwing up, my Mm, Dad, brthers and I lived in my Nana’s ld huse. It was surrunded by fur huge vegetable gardens. And arund the huse s many flwers were planted. It was s beautiful there in the spring and summer. That wasn’t all, thugh. On the back prch(门廊) Nana had dzens f ptted plants hanging n hks. She watered them, talked t them and grew them. And in the winter she wuld carry them all inside and set them n shelves near the windws f ur enclsed frnt prch. There with a little water and a lt f lve she kept them alive, green, and grwing even during the cldest, darkest mnths.
As a by I was puzzled by all the effrt she put int them. I understd the vegetable gardens. They helped t feed the family all winter lng. I even understd the flwers arund the huse. They were pretty and smelled s sweet in the summer mnths. The reasn she put s much effrt int caring fr thse ptted plants, hwever, eluded me. They didn’t give us any fd and they rarely had any flwers n them. They remained a mystery t my child’s mind.
Nw as I’ve grwn lder I am beginning t understand why my Nana had thse ptted plants. It is the same reasn I have s many pictures f sunrises and frests hanging in my hme. They remind me during the dark, cld, winter mnths full f bare trees and yellw grass that light, lve, and grwth still exist. They remind me that Spring will cme again. They remind me that Gd lves us and is still with us even when the earth desn’t shw it.
Tday I see Nana’s ptted plants in a new light. They are wrth every bit f the lve and care she put int them. But what tells me mst abut light and lve is Nana herself. She is light t my sul even in my darkest times. And her lve lives n in my heart even if she is in Heaven. May we all learn t lve as she lved, shine as she shined, and live as she lived.

Extremely authentic-lking prsthetic (假体的) eyes can nw be 3D-printed in a fractin f the time it wuld nrmally take t prduce the eyes by hand, scientists demnstrate in a new study.
The new technlgy can create a prsthetic eye in just 90 minutes, cmpared with the eight hurs it wuld nrmally take a skilled technician, r cularist, t prduce ne by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labr t make than traditinal methds, the scientists behind the technlgy wrte in a new paper published in the jurnal Nature Cmmunicatins.
The 3D-printed eyes als lk mre natural than traditinal prstheses; this culd help imprve a patient’s self-cnfidence in using the devices. “Patients are very cnscius abut wearing a prsthesis, and they dn't want thers t ntice,” Jhann Reinhard, lead study authr and a researcher at the Fraunhfer
Institute fr Cmputer Graphics Research in Germany, tld us. “With these mre realistic eves, it might help them t participate mre in sciety,” he said.
The new printing apprach invlves taking a specialized image f a patient’s empty eye scket and f their healthy eye. These images are then prcessed and used t draft blueprints that can be sent t be 3D-printed in the lab. These 3D-printed eyes clsely replicate the clr, size and structure f the patient's healthy eye and are particularly gd at capturing the clred part f the eye, knwn as the iris, and the white part f the eye, called the sclera. Once finished, the eyes take 15 t 30 minutes t be installed by an cularist, Reinhard said.
“Abut 80% f adults in need f prsthetic eyes culd theretically have ne made this way, either due t a birth defect that causes an eye t be small r missing r because they’ve lst an eye,” the team said. “Hwever, this wuldn’t be pssible fr all patients, such as thse wh have a very cmplex eye scket, as the sftware wuldn’t be able t find a matching shape fr the prsthetic eye,” Reinhard said.
“Mre data are needed t see if this technique culd als be used t make prsthetic eyes fr children,which wuld require mre regulatin,” Reinhard said.
8. Which f the fllwing wrds can be best used t describe the 3D-printed eyes?
A. Ec-friendly.B. Time-cnsuming.C. Fit-f-all.D. Realistic-lking.
9. Hw des the authr develp his idea mainly in Paragraph 2?
A. By justifying an idea.B. By giving examples.
C. By prviding evidence.D. By making a cmparisn.
10. Which statement is true abut a 3D-printed eye?
A. The patients prefer t shw ff their prsthetic eyes.
B. Every adult in need f a prsthetic eye can’t pssibly have ne.
C. It nrmally takes a skilled technician, r cularist, t prduce ne.
D. The installment f ne is 5 times faster than a traditinal prsthetic eye.
11. Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the text?
A. 3D-printed Eyes——a Better Alternative
B. 3D Printing—a Prmising Technlgy
C. 3D-printed Eyes—a Surce f Cnfidence
D. Prsthetic Eyes—the Hpe fr all Blind Peple
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. A

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了通过 3D打印技术制作假眼比传统手工制作更节省成本而且自然逼真，对于有需要的人来说是更好的选择。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Extremely authentic-lking prsthetic eyes can nw be 3D-printed in a fractin f the time it wuld nrmally take t prduce the eyes by hand, scientists demnstrate in a new study.(科学家在一项新研究中证明，现在可以用3D打印技术制作出非常逼真的假眼，而其所用时间仅为手工制作假眼所需的时间的一小部分。)”可知，3D打印技术制作出的假眼是很逼真的。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“The new technlgy can create a prsthetic eye in just 90 minutes, cmpared with the eight hurs it wuld nrmally take a skilled technician, r cularist, t prduce ne by hand. The 3D-printed eyes require five times less labr t make than traditinal methds, the scientists behind the technlgy wrte in a new paper published in the jurnal Nature Cmmunicatins.(这项新技术可以在90分钟内制造出一只假眼，而通常情况下，熟练的技术人员或眼科医生手工制作一只假眼需要8个小时。该技术背后的科学家在《自然通讯》杂志上发表的一篇新论文中写道，与传统方法相比，3D打印眼睛所需的劳动力减少了五倍。) ”可知，作者通过比较的手段来阐述利用3D打印眼睛的技术会比传统手工制作更快更便捷。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的““Abut 80% f adults in need f prsthetic eyes culd theretically have ne made this way, either due t a birth defect that causes an eye t be small r missing r because they've lst an eye,” the team said. “Hwever, this wuldn't be pssible fr all patients, such as thse wh have a very cmplex eye scket, as the sftware wuldn't be able t find a matching shape fr the prsthetic eye,” Reinhard said.(研究小组说：“理论上，大约80%需要假眼的成年人可以这样做，要么是因为出生缺陷导致眼睛小或缺失，要么是因为他们失去了一只眼睛。”“然而，这并不适用于所有患者，比如那些眼窝非常复杂的患者，因为软件无法找到与假眼匹配的形状，”Reinhard说。)”可知，由于有些人眼窝结构复杂，因此不是每个需要假眼的成年人都能拥有一只。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段的“Extremely authentic-lking prsthetic eyes can nw be 3D-printed in a fractin f the time it wuld nrmally take t prduce the eyes by hand, scientists demnstrate in a new study.(科学家在一项新研究中证明，现在可以用3D打印技术制作出非常逼真的假眼，而其所用时间仅为手工制作假眼所需的时间的一小部分。)”和第二段的“The new technlgy can create a prsthetic eye in just 90 minutes, cmpared with the eight hurs it wuld nrmally take a skilled technician, r cularist, t prduce ne by hand.

Recent experiments by psychlgists at the University f Pittsburgh shed new light n hw we learn and hw we remember ur real-wrld experiences. The research, described in the March 12, 2024 nline editin f prceedings f the Natinal Academy f Science, suggests that varying what we study and spacing ut ur learning ver time can bth be helpful fr memry.
“Lts f prir research has shwn that learning and memry benefit frm spacing study sessins ut,” said Benjamin, a directr f the Causal Learning and Decisin-Making Lab at Pitt. “Fr example, if yu cram the night befre a test, yu might remember the infrmatin the next day fr the test, but yu will prbably frget it fairly sn,” he added. “In cntrast, if yu study the material n different days leading up t the test, yu will be mre likely t recall it fr a lnger perid f time.”
But “spacing effect” has been based n the idea that what yu are trying t learn repeats identically each time. Yet that is rarely the case in real life, when sme features f ur experience s may stay the same,but thers are likely t change. Fr example, imagine repeat trips t yur lcal cffee shp. While many features may stay the same n each visit, a new barista (咖啡师) may be serving yu. Hw des the spacing effect wrk in light f such variatin acrss experiences?
In tw experiments, researchers asked participants t repeatedly study pairs f items and scenes that were either identical n each repetitin r in which the item stayed the same but the scene changed each time. Researchers fund that spaced learning benefited item memry. But they als fund that memry was better fr the items that had been paired with different scenes cmpared with thse shwn with the same scene each time.
“It is hard t prvide clear advice fr things like studying fr a test because the srt f material can be s different,” Benjamin said. “But in thery ur findings shuld be bradly relevant t different srts f tasks, like remembering smene’s name and things abut them and learning new vcabulary in a freign language.”
12. In what way is “spacing effect” challenged in reality?
A. The lack f sufficient learning time.
B. The misuse f the memry technique.
C. The repetitin f the learning prcess.
D. The variability f real-life experiences.
13. Which behavir is least likely t cntribute t lng-term memry?
A. Integrating spaced repetitin int learning.
B. Studying intensively the night befre a test.
C. Linking new infrmatin with different tasks.
D. Learning materials against varius backgrunds.
14. What will Benjamin suggest readers d t remember a new persn's name?
A. Use the name in cnversatins shrtly after meeting them.
B. Repeat the name by assciating it with different infrmatin.
C. Practice item memry t create a mental image with the persn.
D. Engage in active listening when they are intrducing themselves.
15. What is the text mainly abut?
A. The impact f cnstant spaced study.
B. The study f varius and self-paced learning.
C. The rle f varied learning and spaced study.
D. The significance f repeated learning sessins.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了多样化学习和间隔学习的作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“But “spacing effect” has been based n the idea that what yu are trying t learn repeats identically each time. Yet that is rarely the case in real life, when sme features f ur experience s may stay the same, but thers are likely t change.”（但“间隔效应”是基于这样一种观点，即你每次都试图学习相同的内容。然而，在现实生活中很少会出现这种情况，我们经历的某些特征可能保持不变，但其他特征可能会发生变化）可知，“间距效应”在现实中因现实生活经验的可变性而受到挑战。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Fr example, if yu cram the night befre a test, yu might remember the infrmatin the next day fr the test, but yu will prbably frget it fairly sn”（例如，如果你在考试前一天晚上临时抱佛脚，你可能会在第二天记住考试的信息，但很快就会忘记）可知，.考试前一天晚上集中学习对长期记忆的贡献最小。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But in thery ur findings shuld be bradly relevant t different srts f tasks, like remembering smene’s name and things abut them and learning new vcabulary in a freign language”（但从理论上讲，我们的发现应该与不同类型的任务广泛相关，比如记住某人的名字和他们的事情，以及学习外语的新词汇）可知，本杰明建议读者通过将名称与不同信息关联来重复该名字。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The research, described in the March 12,2024 nline editin f prceedings f the Natinal Academy f Science, suggests that varying what we study and spacing ut ur learning ver time can bth be helpful fr memry.”（这项研究发表在2024年3月12日的《美国国家科学院院刊》网络版上，研究表明，随着时间的推移，改变我们学习的内容和间隔学习时间都对记忆力有帮助。）以及下文的叙述可知，短文介绍了多样化学习和间隔学习的作用。故选C项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文倡导在快节奏的世界中要有勇气慢下来，尤其是在制定教学策略等重要任务时，强调慢速、持久和不断调整改进的重要性。文章同时给出如何在快节奏的世界中放慢速度。
【16题详解】
上文“It may sund abnrmal, but instead f rushing t implement (实施), we need t slw dwn. This is particularly relevant when we start the jurney f develping instructinal strategies.(这听起来可能不正常，但我们需要放慢速度，而不是急于实施。当我们开始制定教学策略的旅程时，这一点尤其重要)”说明在快节奏的世界，我们在做事情时需要放慢速度。空处呈上启下，G项中的“hw d we g slw and develp and sustain a new habit”和上文中的“we need t slw dwn”相呼应，并引出下文中的方法。所以G项“那么问题来了，我们如何慢慢来，养成并保持一个新习惯呢”符合语境。故选G。

本段的主旨句“Start, add and abandn habits.(开始、增加和放弃习惯)”以及上文“Set systems that fcus yu and yur team and rganizatin n the implementatin and impact n a few key practices.(设置使您和您的团队以及组织关注一些关键实践的实施和影响的系统)”说明习惯的养成需要时间和不断的调整，在这个过程中，需要关注一些关键习惯的实施和影响，放弃那些不关键的习惯。空处总结前文，E项中的“Prtect these few practices”上文中的“a few key practices”相呼应，“giving up ther unsuitable nes”和主旨句中的“abandn habits”相呼应，说明通过放弃其他不合适的做法来保护这些少数做法。故选E。
【18题详解】
上文“Fcus n maintaining cnsistent effrt rather than pushing fr rapid, unsustainable changes.(专注于保持一致的努力，而不是推动快速、不可持续的改变)”说明我们需要保持一致的努力，不能关注快速的，不可持续的改变。空处顺接上文，说明需要保持一致的努力的原因，并且同时引出下文。C项中“正是缓慢而稳定的进步导致了持久的习惯。”符合语境，该项中的lasting habits在下文中得到了复现。故选C。
【19题详解】
下文“Celebrate each little victry alng the way. These mments f success, n matter hw minr, are the building blcks f lasting change.(庆祝一路上的每一个小小胜利。这些成功的时刻，无论多么微小，都是持久变革的基石)”说明我们需要庆祝一路上的每一个小小的胜利。B项“为每一个小小的胜利鼓掌”适合作本段的主旨句，统领全段。故选B。
【20题详解】
上文“Admittedly, it takes curage t welcme the wisdm f ging slw in this cmpetitive wrld.(诚然，在这个竞争激烈的世界里，欢迎放慢脚步的智慧需要勇气)”说明在竞争激烈的世界，我们需要放慢脚步的智慧和勇气。空处呈上启下，D项中的“As we slw dwn”和上文中的“ging slw in this cmpetitive wrld”相呼应，“patience becmes ur greatest cmpanin”和下文中的“Taking it slw with patience”相呼应，说明当我们放慢脚步时，耐心是我们最伟大的陪伴。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是孙子在《孙子兵法》里讲的一些理念。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：《孙子兵法》是人类历史上最具影响力的军事书籍之一，流传了2000多年。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词短语military bks，fame的形容词是famus，意为“著名的”。故填famus。
【37题详解】
考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：《孙子兵法》是人类历史上最具影响力的军事书籍之一，流传了2000多年。由fr mre than 2,000 years可知，空格处时态是现在完成时，《孙子兵法》这本书是被读，因此空格处是现在完成时的被动语态，主语Sun Zi Bingfa, r The Art f War是单数，因此空格处是has been read，故填has been read。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：孙子于公元前532年移居吴国，后来完成了由13篇文章组成的伟大军事著作，在那部著作里他充分展示了他对战争的洞察力。句中谓语是 later cmpleted，空格处用非谓语动词，wrk和cmpse之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，故填cmpsed。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：孙子于公元前532年移居吴国，后来完成了由13篇文章组成的伟大军事著作，在那部著作里他充分展示了他对战争的洞察力。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词wrk是抽象地点，因此空格处用关系副词where，故填where。
【40题详解】
考查动名词。句意：他建议在制定战争计划之前先分析一下双方之间的情况。suggest ding sth.意为“建议做某事”，因此空格处用动名词analyzing作宾语，故填analyzing。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：他强调得胜的将军必须像熟悉自己一样熟悉敌人。根据语境可知，句子表示“他强调得胜的将军必须像熟悉自己一样熟悉敌人”，空格处是“be familiar with”，为了避免重复，省去be familiar，保留介词with，故填with。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：他还解释了两种决定性因素：一种是客观的、稳定的因素，比如军队的能力；另一种是主观的、多变的，如士兵的精神。作介词的宾语，应用名词capability。故填capability。
【43题详解】
考查定冠词。句意：他认为国家之间的经济竞争是战争的本质。空格处用定冠词the特指战争的本质。故填the。
【44题详解】
考查不定式。句意：与此同时，战争的最高艺术和目的是用战略打败敌人，而不仅仅是武力。由空前的the supreme art and gal可知，空格处用不定式作表语，故填t defeat。
45题详解】
考查副词。句意：他精神和智慧独特地提醒我们，和平是我们应该追求的共同目标。空格处用副词uniquely修饰动词remind，uniquely意为“独特地”。故填uniquely。
