At 60, mther-f-five Liz Earle is energised, clear-headed, and understands that the way she lives her life will give her the best chance f lngevity.
Earle, wh sld her beauty cmpany in 2010, isn’t ne fr standing still. She went n t fund the Liz Earle Wellbeing magazine, cntinues with TV appearances, launched the charity LiveTwice, hsts a weekly pdcast, and has written 36 bks, including her latest, A Better Secnd Half, a manifest (宣言) fr midlife wmen.
She was in denial abut ageing fr a while. She says: “I turned 60 last year and I didn’t want t acknwledge it. In my mther’s generatin, 60 was grey hair, twinset and pearls, and slippers. I feel s far remved frm that steretype (刻板印象).”
Earle, thugh, has defied the numbers. When she was in her mid-50s, she had her bilgical markers f age tested, which shwed her bilgical age t be 39. It’s nw 45, but in the next few years she intends n getting that marker dwn.
In her late 50s, Earle experienced a lt f upheavals in her persnal life, divrcing her secnd husband and failing in investment.“Starting again in my mid-50s was challenging but als energising, because it was an pprtunity fr a fresh start,”she reflects. “I felt like I was being given a secnd chance.

And, actually, that shuldn’t be the case. We’re the clever, wise nes wh have lived thrugh it,” she explains.“ Ageing is a gift,”Earle cntinues,“Even when I was running the beauty cmpany, we never used the term anti-ageing well — keeping cgnitive functin, keeping mbility, having a purpse.”
Nw, Earle is embracing all the gd things that age has brught her, recently welcming her first grandchild int the wrld, and she says she is lking frward t the next decade.
4. Which f the fllwing statements is TRUE abut Earle?
A. She used t wrk as an emplyee in a beauty cmpany.
B. She steps ut f the cmfrt zne and embraces changes.
C. She believes she fits the steretype f the 60- year- lds.
D. She ffered wellness advice withut any scientific prf.

Inflatin (通货膨胀) is the wrd n everyne’s lips, as ur cffers (金库) take a hit and prices seem t rise cnstantly.
Meanwhile, inflatin remains stubbrnly high in many develped ecnmies despite the interest rate rises designed t bring prices dwn. The latest figures fr the U. K. came in abve expectatins at 8.7% n an annual basis, while the U. S. Cnsumer Price Index (指数) (CPI) fr May rse by 4% frm the previus year. Sme ecnmists have fund themselves cnsidering a surprising ptential cntributr: music cncerts. But what d cncerts and the ecnmy have t d with ne anther?
Frm tp singers t famus bands, Klaus Baader, glbal chief ecnmist at Sciete Generale, has tickets t see varius artists this year. “One f the things that struck me as dd is that acquiring tickets fr these cncerts nwadays means peple have t tighten their belt fr a while,” he said.
“And a cncert trip desn’t end with a single ticket. It’s als related t Cca- Cla r ht dgs, the prices f which are always hiked up when shws take place, let alne the accmmdatin,” he explained.
Take the Renaissance Wrld Tur by a famus American singer- sngwriter whse first stp was in Stckhlm in May as an example. “In the Swedish May inflatin numbers, htel prices rse mre than what is usual fr May,” said Filip Anderssn, frm Danske Bank. “Htels in the Stckhlm regin were reprtedly fully bked the weeks arund the event and prices thus skyrcketed. Due t a third f Sweden’s htel rms being in the natin’s capital, prices rse dramatically n a natinal scale.”
Ecnmists have nicknamed the phenmenn: “turflatin”, which has stimulated analysts t give a lt f thught t the upswing. “The cncert market is bming. Understandably, this relates t supply and demand frces— cnsumers are mst interested in making up fr their time lst during the COVID-19 lckdwns,” Baader explained. He als pinted t changes in hw musicians make a prfit. “Artists’ mdels have changed frm making mney by selling CDs twards earning revenues mstly frm cncerts,” Baader added.
The impact f cncerts n inflatin might be shrt- lived. In Sweden's case, Anderssn believes the nrmalizatin f inflatin levels will ccur later after the cncert.
8. What can be cncluded abut inflatin frm paragraph 2?
A. It is a hard-t-tackle and lasting cncern.B. It is psitively crrelated with interest rates.
C. It is much wrse in rich develped cuntries.D. It is an utcme f ineffective financial adjustments.
9. What was Klaus Baader astnished by?
A. The limited fd chices in cncerts.B. The lack f availability f cncert tickets.
C. The ppularity f tp singers and famus bands.D. The verall high expenses fr attending cncerts.
10. What des the example f the tur in Stckhlm shw?
A. Cncerts can bst the acceptability f a city.B. Cncerts prmte the grwth f lcal entertainment.
C. Cncerts d mre harm than gd t the hst city.D. Cncerts can have brader impacts n the ecnmy.
11. What des Klaus Baader aim t explain in the sixth paragraph?
A. The reasn fr artists’ shifting their incme mdels.
B. The supply and demand cnflict in the music industry.
C. The underlying factrs behind the turflatin phenmenn.
D. The impact f COVID-19 lckdwns n the cncert market.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了演唱会对通货膨胀的潜在影响。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Meanwhile, inflatin remains stubbrnly high in many develped ecnmies despite the interest rate rises designed t bring prices dwn. The latest figures fr the U. K. came in abve expectatins at 8.7% n an annual basis, while the U. S. Cnsumer Price Index (指数) (CPI) fr May rse by 4% frm the previus year. (与此同时,在许多发达经济体,尽管加息旨在降低物价,但通胀仍居高不下。英国的最新数据高于预期,同比增长8.7%,而美国5月份的消费者价格指数(CPI)比去年同期上涨了4%。)”可知,通过金融措施如利率上涨也难以解决通货膨胀问题,因此可推知,通货膨胀是一个难以解决且持续存在的问题。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的““One f the things that struck me as dd is that acquiring tickets fr these cncerts nwadays means peple have t tighten their belt fr a while,” he said. (“让我感到奇怪的一件事是,现在买这些音乐会的票意味着人们不得不在一段时间内勒紧裤腰带,”他说。)”和第四段中的““And a cncert trip desn’t end with a single ticket. It’s als related t Cca- Cla r ht dgs, the prices f which are always hiked up when shws take place, let alne the accmmdatin,” he explained. (音乐会之旅不会以一张票结束。这也与可口可乐或热狗有关,演出一开始,这些东西的价格就会上涨,更不用说住宿了。”)”可知,巴德尔对看演唱会的整体高费用感到惊讶。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的““In the Swedish May inflatin numbers, htel prices rse mre than what is usual fr May,” said Filip Anderssn, frm Danske Bank. “Htels in the Stckhlm regin were reprtedly fully bked the weeks arund the event and prices thus skyrcketed. Due t a third f Sweden’s htel rms being in the natin’s capital, prices rse dramatically n a natinal scale.”(“瑞典丹斯克银行的菲利普·安德森表示:“在瑞典5月份的通胀数据中,酒店价格涨幅超过了5月份的正常水平。”据报道,斯德哥尔摩地区的酒店在活动前后几周被订满,因此价格飙升。由于瑞典三分之一的酒店客房位于首都,因此房价在全国范围内大幅上涨。”)”可知,拿去斯德哥尔摩看演唱会举例是为了说明在某个城市举办演唱会,会对其经济造成影响甚至会波及全国,故音乐会对经济有更广泛的影响。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Ecnmists have nicknamed the phenmenn: “turflatin”, which has stimulated analysts t give a lt f thught t the upswing. “The cncert market is bming. Understandably, this relates t supply and demand frces— cnsumers are mst interested in making up fr their time lst during the COVID-19 lckdwns,” Baader explained. He als pinted t changes in hw musicians make a prfit. “Artists’ mdels have changed frm making mney by selling CDs twards earning revenues mstly frm cncerts,” Baader added.(经济学家给这种现象起了个绰号:“通货膨胀”,这促使分析人士对经济的回升进行了大量思考。“演唱会市场正在蓬勃发展。可以理解,这与供需力量有关——消费者最感兴趣的是弥补他们在COVID-19封锁期间损失的时间,”巴德尔解释说。他还指出了音乐家盈利方式的变化。巴德尔补充说:“艺术家们的模式已经从靠卖CD赚钱转变为主要靠演唱会赚钱。)”可知,巴德尔阐述了巡演通货膨胀这一现象背后的影响因素,包括后疫情时代音乐会市场火热发展和艺人收入模式的改变两方面。故选C。
D
These students wandering thrugh the wds n the utskirts (郊区) f Prtland, Oregn, aren’t n a schl field trip — this muddy field is their schl. Frm the mment they’re drpped ff in the mrning, they spend their entire day utside in ne f Oregn’s public parks. “Rain r shine, we’re ut here,” said teacher Christine Fleener.
On this surprisingly nice day, Fleener’s class f fifth graders headed t the grassland fr a bilgy lessn. Further dwn the trail, a grup f furth graders is learning n lgs. It’s schl, just nt the type f schl yu might be used t. “Frest schl is where the classrm des nt have walls,” said Tny Deis, ne f the funders f Trackers Earth Frest Schl. “It’s hw kids riginally learned; they didn’t learn sitting at desks, facing frward, and lking at a teacher. They learned frm a multi-sensry envirnment.”
Over the past decade, utdr frest schls have gained ppularity in the United States. The idea is that the challenges that cme with being utside all day — dealing with weather, building yur wn shelter, and unearthing the unexpected are all part f the learning prcess.
It’s cmplicated, f curse. Outdr schling invlves a puzzle f weather and regulatins and budget issues. A well-funded private schl in Prtland, Oregn is ne thing, but what abut a public schl in Prtland, Maine? Surprisingly, cld Maine, f all places, has been quick t adpt utdr learning.
The district isn’t all ut side all the time, but certain classes, like art, have mved utdrs. Supplies came frm federal (联邦的) funds and lcal dnatins. And while Maine has plenty f pen space, Brke Teller, the utdr learning crdinatr (协调人) fr Prtland Public Schls, believes schls in majr cities culd have green classrms hiding underneath their pavement (路面). She said, “We have a few hundred landscape architects all acrss the cuntry wh have vlunteered t be a thught partner with schls that want t figure ut where n their grunds wuld be best fr utdr learning.”
12. What des the authr describe at the beginning f the text?

【16题详解】
根据前面提到的“Nw, sme peple say there shuld be a pause in AI wrk t make sure it desn’t becme dangerus.(现在,有人说应该暂停人工智能的工作,以确保它不会变得危险。)”以及倒数第二段中的“Nt all AI experts agree with the letter.(并非所有人工智能专家都同意这封信。 )”可知,一些人建议人工智能工具应该暂停,以确保它不会变得危险,下文应接着说明人们对该建议的反应。所以B项Hwever, nt everyne agrees.(然而,这种说法并不是人人都同意)符合语境,有承上启下作用。故选B项。
【17题详解】
结合前面的“But scientists have been wrking t imprve AI mdels, mainly by training the mdels n larger and larger cllectins f infrmatin. (但科学家们一直在努力改进人工智能模型,主要是通过在越来越大的信息集合上训练模型。)”以及后面的“Extremely large mdels have surprised even their creatrs with what they can d.(超大型模型的性能甚至让它们的创造者都感到惊讶。)”可知,这里主要讲科学家们努力改进人工智能模型并取得成绩,所以C项Thse effrts are paying ff.(这些努力得到了回报)符合语境,其中Thse effrts代指上文 scientists have been wrking t imprve AI mdels。其中paying ff与下文的成就对应,所以本句有承上启下作用。故选C项。

根据后面的“But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing— based n its training infrmatin whse wrd is mst likely t cme next, ver and ver again.(但实际上,ChatGPT只是猜测——根据它的训练信息,谁的单词最有可能一次又一次地出现。)”可知,ChatGPT并不是很聪明,其实只不过是靠猜测。所以E项ChatGPT appears t be extremely intelligent.(ChatGPT似乎非常聪明。)符合语境,与后文形成对比。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据前面的“The letter claimed AI cmpanies were in a race t create‘ pwerful digital minds’ that n ne can‘ understand, predict, r cntrl’.(这封信声称,人工智能公司正在竞相创造没有人能够‘理解、预测或控制’的‘强大的数字思维’。)”可知,他们认为人工智能公司正在竞相创造无人能“理解、预测或控制”的“强大的数字思维”。因此他们呼吁应该制定法律,以确保人工智能工具是安全的。所以F项They expect laws t make sure AI tls are safe.(他们希望法律能够确保人工智能工具的安全。)符合语境,有承上作用。故选F项。
【20题详解】
结合后面的“Therefre, many cmpanies are mre likely t keep develping pwerful AI tls.(因此,许多公司更有可能继续开发强大的人工智能工具。)”可知,许多公司仍看好人工智能,而D项ChatGPT has caused s much excitement.(ChatGPT引起了如此多的兴奋。)符合语境,对下文有总括作用。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了孙武所著的《孙子兵法》及其在如今现实中的应用及意义。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:《孙子兵法》是世界上最著名、最有影响力的军事著作之一,由中国战略家孙子所著。此空应填形容词作定语,修饰后面名词,influence的形容词为influential“adj.有影响力的,有势力的”。故填influential。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:《孙子兵法》是世界上最著名、最有影响力的军事著作之一,由中国战略家孙子所著。这里考查非谓语,The Art Of War 与 write之间为被动关系,再由句意可知,这里应用过去分词作后置定语。故填written。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:据研究人员称,这些文字据说是孙子在战国时期(公元前475-221年)写的。修饰动词 wrte,此空应用副词 suppsedly(adv.据说,据传)。故填suppsedly。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:知可以战与不可以战者胜。这里考查定语从句,先行词He,为人,在从句中作主语,所以应用关系代词wh。故填wh。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:避实而击虚。因敌而制胜要求在战争中避开敌人的坚实之处,攻击其虚弱之处。这里考查the+ adj.表某一类人或一类抽象的事物,the weak意为“弱处”。故填the。
【41题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:一部著名的军事著作现已成为各种冲突的指南,这是所有著名商业专家甚至体育教练的推荐。这里考查turn int“转变成,变成”或者turn ut“结果是”,均为固定搭配,符合句意。故填int或者ut。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:一部著名的军事著作现已成为各种冲突的指南,这是所有著名商业专家甚至体育教练的推荐。冠词a后面应填可数名词单数,recmmendatin(n.正式建议,提议;推荐,介绍),符合句意。故填recmmendatin。
【43题详解】
考查连词。句意:《孙子兵法》不仅是一部军事著作,也是我们日常生活的指南。这里考查nt just … but (als)…表“不仅……而且……”,为固定搭配。故填but。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:对于在个人和职业生涯中寻求成功的人来说,这使其成为一种宝贵的资源。这里考查非谓语,individuals 与seek之间为主动关系,再由句意可知,这里应用现在分词seeking 作后置定语限定individuals。故填seeing。
【45题详解】
考查代词。句意:对于在个人和职业生涯中寻求成功的人来说,这使其成为一种宝贵的资源。分析句子可知,此空应填it,指代上文出现的The Art Of War。故填it。
