Beatrice De Lavalette developed a passion for horse-riding when she turned 3. However, in the spring of 2016, 17-year- old De Lavalette was waiting for a flight when she got hit by a bombing at Brussels airport. Along with serious burns, De Lavalette lost both legs below the knee. Yet she said if it weren’t for the event, she wouldn’t be the person to join in the Paralympic Games(残奥会) in Tokyo.
Getting back in the saddle(马鞍) was no easy work because of her injuries. However, five months after the bombing, thanks to her courage, determination-and further treatment and training---that’s exactly where she was. “I had no muscle, I was just skin and bones, so being back on the saddle with no sense of balance was really uncomfortable. But with time, I was able to build up the muscle and work on my balance,” she said.
Unsurprisingly, De Lavalette was depressed as she tried to come to make peace with her injuries. She got lots of help and encouragement from her family, friends and the doctors, but she still couldn’t pick herself up. She cried a lot in the hospital until an unexpected visitor, her beloved horse, DeeDee, turned things around for her. “DeeDee saved my life,” Beatrice said. Adjusting to her disabled body was, in many ways, like having to learn to ride all over again. And the Paralympics offered a perfect chance to show her hard-earned skills. “I can’t change what happened, but I can still achieve my dream. As I have said many times, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. What else is there to say There are no ‘What ifs’. I have a new life in front of me,” Beatrice said, “What’s important is that I’m alive and I feel that I will do something great with my life. ” We’d say that she already has.
4. What happened to Beatrice when she was 17
A. She learned to ride.
B. She ran into an air crash.
C. She got injured in a bombing.
D. She participated in the Paralympics.
5. What played a key role in helping Beatrice back to riding
A Parents’ love. B. Doctors’ care. C. DeeDee’s company.
D. Friends’ encouragement.
6. What was Beatrice’s difficulty in training
A. Lack of friendship. B. Loss of balance. C. Great physical pains. D. Continuous depression.
7. What can we learn from Beatrice’s words in the last paragraph
A. Time is a good heal.
B. Hard work pays off.
C. Attitude makes a difference.
D. Failure is the mother of success.
C
Elephants on the coast of Thailand are acting strangely. They stamp their feet and signal (示意) towards the hills. The sea draws back from the beaches. Fish flop (扑腾) on the seabed. Suddenly, a huge wave appears. This is no ordinary wave. It is a tsunami!
Tsunami waves are larger and faster than normal surface waves. A tsunami wave can travel as fast as a jet plane and can be as tall as a ten-storey building. Imagine dropping a stone into a pool. The water on the surface ripples (起细浪). A tsunami is like a very powerful ripple. Tsunamis begin when the ocean rises or falls very suddenly. Lots of seawater is displaced. This movement causes huge waves.
If a tsunami happens, there must be some kind of force that causes the ocean water to become displaced. Most tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes. However, volcanoes, landslides, and large icebergs can also cause one of these huge waves.
Tsunamis are extremely powerful. Ordinary waves lose power when they break. Tsunami waves can remain powerful for several days. Because tsunami waves are so strong, they can kill people, damage buildings, and completely ruin an ecosystem in just one hour.
Scientists have no way of telling people in advance when a tsunami will hit. However, if a powerful enough earthquake happens, scientists can send out a warning or a watch. A warning means that a tsunami will very likely hit soon. A watch means that conditions are suitable for a tsunami. When people receive a watch or a warning, they have more time to prepare. It is best not to get caught unaware (没意识到) when a tsunami is on the way!
8. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. Causes of tsunamis. B. Signs of tsunamis.
C. The force of tsunamis. D. The effect of tsunamis.
9. What does the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Moved. B. Polluted. C. Stored. D. Lost.
10. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. A warning is more serious than a watch.
B. A warning is sent out after an earthquake.
C. A watch means a tsunami may not happen.
D. A warning means a tsunami will surely happen.
11. What is the purpose of the text
A. To tell a story. B. To provide facts.
C To give advice. D. To compare opinions.
D
To battle the plagiarism (抄袭), some schools in America have responded to ChatGPT by taking action, according to the New York Times.
New York City public schools, for example, recently prevented ChatGPT access on school computers and networks, saying “concerns about negative influence on students learning, and concerns about the safety of content.” Schools in other cities, including Seattle, have also limited its use.
A US’ online course provider Study. com recently asked 1 000 students over the age of 18 about the use of ChatGPT in the classroom. The responses were surprising. Around 89 percent said they’ve used it on homework. Over 50 percent said they used ChatGPT to write an essay, while 22 percent admitted to having asked ChatGPT for a paper outline.
While the chatbot (聊天机器人) is raising fears of academic cheating on schools, some educators believe introducing the Al-ended tools to the academics could even overturn the traditional education.
“For researchers, finding valuable scientific problems and solving them in creative ways come first, and then writing academic papers. Some AI-enabled writing tools can create words or even write long text based on a few keywords shortly,” said Zhu Wei, a law professor in China. For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.
“Whether to use ChatGPT depends on whether to use it correctly. For those students who just use it to deal with homework or exams,” Zhu said, “this is putting the cart before the horse, which should be limited.” To avoid this problem, Zhu suggested introducing soft wares to help educators. He believes schools should accept ChatGPT as a teaching aid to unlock creativity in students. “The most important part of such tools is not to replace human thinking, but to improve human thinking.” Zhu said.
12. How does the author describe the results of Study. com’s research in Paragraph 3
A. By listing figures. B. By conducting tests.
C. By giving examples. D. By referring to other studies.
13. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us about AI-ended tools
A. AI-ended tools help increase productivity.
B. AI-ended tools help scientists settle problems.
C. AI-ended tools help people in academic.
D. AI-ended tools help writers collect writing materials.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the usage of ChatGPT
A. Disagreeable. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned.
15. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. Showing how software is applied in schools.
B. Giving examples of how students use ChatGPT.
C. Listing advantages of using AI-ended tools properly in schools.
D. Introducing ways to use ChatGPT to improve students’ creativity.

They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do.
The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.
Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess now. Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge. But Jeff’s hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右。

As the twins looked around them in disappointment, their father appeared.

Beatrice De Lavalette developed a passion for horse-riding when she turned 3. However, in the spring of 2016, 17-year- old De Lavalette was waiting for a flight when she got hit by a bombing at Brussels airport. Along with serious burns, De Lavalette lost both legs below the knee. Yet she said if it weren’t for the event, she wouldn’t be the person to join in the Paralympic Games(残奥会) in Tokyo.
Getting back in the saddle(马鞍) was no easy work because of her injuries. However, five months after the bombing, thanks to her courage, determination-and further treatment and training---that’s exactly where she was. “I had no muscle, I was just skin and bones, so being back on the saddle with no sense of balance was really uncomfortable. But with time, I was able to build up the muscle and work on my balance,” she said.
Unsurprisingly, De Lavalette was depressed as she tried to come to make peace with her injuries. She got lots of help and encouragement from her family, friends and the doctors, but she still couldn’t pick herself up. She cried a lot in the hospital until an unexpected visitor, her beloved horse, DeeDee, turned things around for her. “DeeDee saved my life,” Beatrice said. Adjusting to her disabled body was, in many ways, like having to learn to ride all over again. And the Paralympics offered a perfect chance to show her hard-earned skills. “I can’t change what happened, but I can still achieve my dream. As I have said many times, I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. What else is there to say There are no ‘What ifs’. I have a new life in front of me,” Beatrice said, “What’s important is that I’m alive and I feel that I will do something great with my life. ” We’d say that she already has.
4. What happened to Beatrice when she was 17
A. She learned to ride.
B. She ran into an air crash.
C. She got injured in a bombing.
D. She participated in the Paralympics.
5. What played a key role in helping Beatrice back to riding
A. Parents’ love. B. Doctors’ care. C. DeeDee’s company.
D. Friends’ encouragement.
6. What was Beatrice’s difficulty in training
A. Lack of friendship. B. Loss of balance. C. Great physical pains. D. Continuous depression.
7. What can we learn from Beatrice’s words in the last paragraph
A. Time is a good heal.
B. Hard work pays off.
C. Attitude makes a difference.
D. Failure is the mother of success.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. C

【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段Beatrice说的话“I had no muscle, I was just skin and bones, so being back on the saddle with no sense of balance was really uncomfortable.(我没有肌肉,只有皮包骨头,所以在没有平衡感的情况下回到马鞍上真的很不舒服。)”可知,Beatrice在训练中的困难是失去平衡。故选B。
【7题详解】

Elephants on the coast of Thailand are acting strangely. They stamp their feet and signal (示意) towards the hills. The sea draws back from the beaches. Fish flop (扑腾) on the seabed. Suddenly, a huge wave appears. This is no ordinary wave. It is a tsunami!
Tsunami waves are larger and faster than normal surface waves. A tsunami wave can travel as fast as a jet plane and can be as tall as a ten-storey building. Imagine dropping a stone into a pool. The water on the surface ripples (起细浪). A tsunami is like a very powerful ripple. Tsunamis begin when the ocean rises or falls very suddenly. Lots of seawater is displaced. This movement causes huge waves.
If a tsunami happens, there must be some kind of force that causes the ocean water to become displaced. Most tsunamis are caused by underwater earthquakes. However, volcanoes, landslides, and large icebergs can also cause one of these huge waves.
Tsunamis are extremely powerful. Ordinary waves lose power when they break. Tsunami waves can remain powerful for several days. Because tsunami waves are so strong, they can kill people, damage buildings, and completely ruin an ecosystem in just one hour.
Scientists have no way of telling people in advance when a tsunami will hit. However, if a powerful enough earthquake happens, scientists can send out a warning or a watch. A warning means that a tsunami will very likely hit soon. A watch means that conditions are suitable for a tsunami. When people receive a watch or a warning, they have more time to prepare. It is best not to get caught unaware (没意识到) when a tsunami is on the way!
8. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. Causes of tsunamis. B. Signs of tsunamis.
C. The force of tsunamis. D. The effect of tsunamis.
9. What does the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Moved. B. Polluted. C. Stored. D. Lost.
10. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. A warning is more serious than a watch.
B. A warning is sent out after an earthquake.
C. A watch means a tsunami may not happen.
D. A warning means a tsunami will surely happen.
11. What is the purpose of the text
A. To tell a story. B. To provide facts.
C. To give advice. D. To compare opinions.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了海啸产生的原因及带来的危害。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段关键句“Elephants on the coast of Thailand are acting strangely. They stamp their feet and signal (示意) towards the hills. The sea draws back from the beaches. Fish flop (扑腾) on the seabed.”(泰国海岸上的大象行为很奇怪。它们跺着脚,向山上示意。海水从海滩退去。鱼在海床上翻腾。)和“Suddenly, a huge wave appears. This is no ordinary wave. It is a tsunami!”(突然,一个巨浪出现了。这不是普通的波浪。这是一场海啸!)可知,第一段介绍了一些奇怪的迹象,例如大象跺着脚向山上示意,海水从海滩退去,鱼在海床上翻腾,然后,海啸发生了,这些奇怪的迹象都是海啸发生的征兆,由此可知,第一段主要讲的是海啸的征兆。故选B项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线单词上句“Tsunamis begin when the ocean rises or falls very suddenly.”(当海洋突然涨落时,海啸就开始了。)和下句“This movement causes huge waves.”(这一运动引发了巨浪。)可知,当海洋突然涨落时,引发了巨浪,这就是海啸,由此可知,划线部分指的是当海洋突然涨落时,大量海水被移动了,所以才会引发巨浪,“Moved”意为“移动”,能够表达画线单词在句中所要表达的意思。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段关键句“Scientists have no way of telling people in advance when a tsunami will hit. However, if a powerful enough earthquake happens, scientists can send out a warning or a watch.”(科学家们无法提前告诉人们海啸何时发生。然而,如果发生足够强烈的地震,科学家可以发出警告或注意。)可知,科学家们无法提前告诉人们海啸何时发生,但如果发生足够强烈的地震,科学家可以发出关于海啸的警告或注意,由此可知,关于海啸的警报是在地震后发出的。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合第二段关键句“Tsunamis begin when the ocean rises or falls very suddenly.”(当海洋突然涨落时,海啸就开始了。)和第三段关键句“Tsunamis are extremely powerful.”(海啸威力极大。)可知,本文主要介绍了海啸产生的原因及带来的危害,这是对客观事实的介绍,向人们普及知识,由此可知,文章的写作目的是提供事实。故选B项。

To battle the plagiarism (抄袭), some schools in America have responded to ChatGPT by taking action, according to the New York Times.
New York City public schools, for example, recently prevented ChatGPT access on school computers and networks, saying “concerns about negative influence on students learning, and concerns about the safety of content.” Schools in other cities, including Seattle, have also limited its use.
A US’ online course provider Study. com recently asked 1, 000 students over the age of 18 about the use of ChatGPT in the classroom. The responses were surprising. Around 89 percent said they’ve used it on homework. Over 50 percent said they used ChatGPT to write an essay, while 22 percent admitted to having asked ChatGPT for a paper outline.
While the chatbot (聊天机器人) is raising fears of academic cheating on schools, some educators believe introducing the Al-ended tools to the academics could even overturn the traditional education.
“For researchers, finding valuable scientific problems and solving them in creative ways come first, and then writing academic papers. Some AI-enabled writing tools can create words or even write long text based on a few keywords shortly,” said Zhu Wei, a law professor in China. For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.
“Whether to use ChatGPT depends on whether to use it correctly. For those students who just use it to deal with homework or exams,” Zhu said, “this is putting the cart before the horse, which should be limited.” To avoid this problem, Zhu suggested introducing soft wares to help educators. He believes schools should accept ChatGPT as a teaching aid to unlock creativity in students. “The most important part of such tools is not to replace human thinking, but to improve human thinking.” Zhu said.
12. How does the author describe the results of Study. com’s research in Paragraph 3

A. AI-ended tools help increase productivity.
B. AI-ended tools help scientists settle problems.
C. AI-ended tools help people in academic.
D. AI-ended tools help writers collect writing materials.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards the usage of ChatGPT
A. Disagreeable. B. Favorable. C. Objective. D. Unconcerned.
15. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. Showing how software is applied in schools.
B. Giving examples of how students use ChatGPT.
C. Listing advantages of using AI-ended tools properly in schools.
D. Introducing ways to use ChatGPT to improve students’ creativity.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。据《纽约时报》报道,为了打击抄袭行为,美国的一些学校对ChatGPT进行了严厉打击。文章介绍了对ChatGPT的几种不同观点。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“A US’ online course provider Study. com recently asked 1,000 students over the age of 18 about the use of ChatGPT in the classroom. (美国在线课程提供商Study.com最近询问了1000名年龄在18岁以上的学生关于在课堂上使用ChatGPT的情况)”以及“Around 89 percent said they’ve used it on homework. Over 50 percent said they used ChatGPT to write an essay, while 22 percent admitted to having asked ChatGPT for a paper outline.(大约89%的学生表示他们在做作业时使用过ChatGPT。超过50%的学生表示他们使用ChatGPT来写作文,而22%的学生承认曾向ChatGPT寻求论文提纲)”可推知,本段主要通过列举数字的方式来阐述调研结果。故选A。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段中“Some AI-enabled writing tools can create words or even write long text based on a few keywords shortly,(一些支持人工智能的写作工具可以根据几个关键词创建单词,甚至写出长文本)”以及“For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.(例如,ChatGPT可以帮助作者收集论文的写作材料,这不仅提高了工作效率,而且可以让研究人员将更多的精力投入到更有创造性的工作中)”可知,该段提到AI-enabled写作工具可以帮助作家收集写作材料,提高工作效率,使研究人员能够将更多精力投入到更有创造力的工作中。这表明AI-ended工具能够帮助人们提高工作效率。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“For example, ChatGPT helps writers gather writing materials for their papers, which not only increases the efficiency of the work, but also allows researchers to devote more energy to more creative work.(例如,ChatGPT可以帮助作者收集论文的写作材料,这不仅提高了工作效率,而且可以让研究人员将更多的精力投入到更有创造性的工作中)”以及最后一段中“To avoid this problem, Zhu suggested introducing soft wares to help educators. (为了避免这个问题,朱建议引入软件来帮助教育工作者)”可知,对于ChatGPT的使用作者描述了朱教授的观点,即该软件能提高工作效率,同时也需要引用其他软件来避免使用该软件作弊等相关的问题。由此推知,作者对ChatGPT的态度是客观的。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He believes schools should accept ChatGPT as a teaching aid to unlock creativity in students. “The most important part of such tools is not to replace human thinking, but to improve human thinking.” Zhu said.(他认为,学校应该接受ChatGPT作为一种教学辅助工具,以释放学生的创造力。“这些工具最重要的部分不是取代人类的思维,而是改善人类的思维。”朱说)”可知,最后一段朱教授提出建议校应该接受ChatGPT作为一种教学辅助工具,以释放学生的创造力。由此推知,文章之后的内容应该承接该话题,即如何使用ChatGPT作为一种激发学生们创造力的工具。故选D。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。大自然启发我们找到解决我们面临的问题的方法,学生应被鼓励研究植物或动物的特征,以促进他们设计出什么发明或想法。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:通过研究野生动物的工作原理,我们想出了一些非常聪明的发明。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作宾语,使用非谓语动词,根据空白处前面的介词可知空白处应填动名词,故填studying。

【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:它们通过发出可以在表面反射的声音来实现这一点,这个过程被称为回声定位。分析句子结构,这是一个包含定语从句的复合句,先行词为sounds,因先行词在定语从句中做主语指物,可使用which或that引导定语从句,故填which/that。

【42题详解】
考查并列连词。句意:但与钢不同的是,蜘蛛丝既柔韧又轻便。分析句子结构,根据上文“flexible(柔韧)”以及下文“lightweight(轻便)”可知两者之间为并列关系,而且both…and为固定短语,含义为“既……又……”,符合句意,故填and。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:一位名叫乔治·德·梅斯特拉尔的电气工程师注意到,码头工厂的毛刺牢牢地粘在他那只不幸的猎犬身上。分析句子结构,空白处后面的名词engineer做主语,根据名词的用法,名词前需使用不定冠词a表示“一个;一位”含义,因空白处后面紧跟的形容词electrical的第一个发音音素为元音,使用不定冠词an,故填An。

A MOTHER’S DAY SURPRISE
The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother’s Day. How pleased and proud Mother would be when they brought her breakfast in bed. They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do.
The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.
Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess now. Jenna told Jeff to clean it up so they could continue to cook the rest of the porridge. But Jeff’s hand touched the hot burner and he gave a cry of pain. Jenna made him put his hand in cold water. Then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.
