阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Famous People Who Begin With Difficulties
Oprah Winfrey
Probably having one of the most famous success stories, Oprah was born into a poor family in Mississippi, raised by a single mother living on welfare. She was physically, and mentally abused during her childhood. Despite her initial struggles as a young girl, she turned herself into one of the most successful talk show hosts of our time.
Jim Carrey
Jim Carrey has been the star of some of the most successful movies of all time. But Carrey grew up extremely poor in Canada. When he was a teenager, his family took security jobs in a factory to help pay the bills. And during his first stand-up comedy performance, he was booed off (喝倒彩) the stage. Not shortly after, he made it big on In Living Color and then went on to star in Dumb &Dumber, The Mask, and Ace Ventura in the same year!
James Dyson
If you thought Thomas Edison’s failures were bad, let me introduce you to James Dyson, the famous inventor of the Dyson vacuums (真空吸尘器) you see all over the television. Dyson developed over 5,000 failed prototypes (原型) before finding the bagless vacuum brand. Not only that, he put his entire savings account into his prototypes over fifteen years! Luckily, the bagless vacuum worked.
Stephen King
Before Stephen King became known as a great living writer—having written over 60novels, many of which have been adapted for film and television—King was rejected over and over again. In his memoir, On Writing, King describes how he used to post his rejection letters on the wall for inspiration. His first novel, Carrie, was rejected 30 times.
21. What do Oprah and Jim have in common
A. They were abused by parents. B. They grew up in poor families.
C. They were hired as comedians. D. They found jobs in a factory.
22. What did James Dyson do
A. He repaired the failed prototypes. B. He developed over 5,000 brands.
C. He put all efforts into marketing. D. He invented the bagless vacuum.
23. Who is a novelist
A. Stephen King. B. Oprah Winfrey. C. James Dyson. D. Jim Carrey.
B
Many visual artists have a signature style, as unique and identifiable as a fingerprint. For Amoako Boafo, who often paints with his fingers, this seems doubly true. His distinctive paint strokes(笔画) combine the complex skin tones of his chosen subjects, many of whom are, like himself, Africans with global life experiences.
Boafo, whose first solo museum exhibition runs at the Seattle Art Museum, was born and raised in Accra, Ghana, and moved to Vienna, Austria, in 2014, where he ran into difficulties, with gallerists unwilling to show his works due to his focus on Black figures. He continued making an effort to create self-portraits (自画像) and people he knew or admired—African people and Black people who have African ancestry, painting a community of sorts during a time of hardship. He also developed his standout approach to figurative painting, which combines areas of bright and noticeable color with his soft and deep finger painting.
He began posting his art online and caught the attention of artists like Kehinde Wiley, the celebrated American artist. The word started to spread.
Boafo is now a global art star, with numerous shows at galleries and art fairs, working with fashion house Dior, and several paintings selling for over a million dollars. In 2021, with three of his paintings being launched into space by Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos’ Kent-based spaceflight company, you might even say Boafo has rocketed to success.
And yet a recent phone conversation with the artist from his studio in Accra, which is once again his home base, revealed a well-mannered person who appreciated his success while pointing out all of the luck and preparation that led to it. Seeing so many of his paintings—created from 2016 to 2022—gathered together in an exhibition has helped him remember that “I did not ‘just happen.’ I did not expect this success but I was hopeful and ready for it.”
24. What makes Boafo’s paintings different from other artists’ works
A. His finger strokes. B. His home country.
C. His life experiences. D. His traditional style.
25. How did Boafo deal with the difficult situation in Austria
A. By turning to celebrated artists for help. B. By developing a unique painting style.
C. By running his art exhibition at home. D. By working with local art galleries.
26. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the spaceflight company
A. To indicate the price of space travel. B. To show the value of Boafo’s works.
C. To introduce an international brand. D. To tell us the advances in technology.
27. What can we learn about Boafo
A. He is talkative. B. He is patient. C. He is determined. D. He is humorous.
C
Seafloor cables (光缆) carry over 95% of all digital data traffic worldwide, including financial trading information and social media communications. However, how the Earth’s changing climate could impact this vast undersea network has been relatively understudied until now.
In a new study published in Earth-Science Reviews, an international team of researchers led by the UK’s National Oceanography Centre(NOC) worked to illuminate this problem by assessing how and where future climate change is likely to impact subsea cables.
By analyzing published databasets, the researchers identified regional climate change “hotspots” where threats to subsea cables may become more intense. These include areas in the western Pacific where changes to tropical cyclone (热带气旋) intensity and frequency have already increased cable damage.
“In our paper, we conducted the first comprehensive assessment of a range of climate-related threats to seafloor cables across the globe and their landing stations,” says study co-author Thomas Wahl. “Our analysis clearly stresses the need to carefully plan cable routes and landing station locations factoring in a range of local threats and how those are affected by climate change.”
When we look at Florida, there are at least 21 subsea telecommunications cables that connect to the Florida coastline, North and South America and the Caribbean, meaning that there will be a breakdown in communications worldwide if a cable is damaged, the researchers say.
However, the study identifies the importance of assessing changing conditions, particularly where multiple cable systems share a landing point, as they may be affected by combinations of threats that affect the low-lying Florida coastline, such as sea level rise, and changes in storm activity. “Our reliance on cables that are no wider than a garden hose (软管) is a surprise to many, who regard satellites as the main means of communication,” says lead author Mike Clare, a researcher with NOC. “But satellites simply don’t have the bandwidth to support modern digital systems. The ‘cloud’ is not in the sky—it is under the sea.”
28. What does the underlined word “illuminate” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Find. B. Miss. C. Explain. D. Connect.
29. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. The threat of sea level rise. B. The finding of the study.
C. The cause of climate change. D. The method of the research.
30. Which of the following best describes Florida in the global network
A. Effective. B. Complex. C. Stable. D. Critical.
31. What can we infer from Mike Clare’s words
A. Subse a cables are more important for global communications.
B. Satellites have the ability to support modern digital systems.
C. Natural disasters will happen frequently due to climate change.
D. There is no need to assess potential threats to seafloor cables.
D
For Kurt Gray, a social psychologist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, conducting experiments comes with certain problems. Before starting any study, his lab must get ethical (伦理的) approval from an institutional review board, which can take weeks or months. Then his team has to hire online participants—easier than bringing people into the lab, but Gray says the online subjects are often lazy. Then the researchers spend hours cleaning the data. But earlier this year, Gray accidentally saw an alternative way to do things.
He was working with computer scientists at the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence to see whether they could develop an AI system that made moral judgments like humans. But first they figured they’d see if a system from the startup OpenAI could already do the job. The team asked GPT-3.5, which produces human-like text, to judge the ethics of 464 scenarios (情境), previously evaluated by human subjects. It turned out that the system’s answers were nearly the same as human responses.
“This is crazy,” Gray says. “If you can just ask GPT to make these judgments, why don’t you just ask GPT instead of asking people ” The results were published this month in Trends in Cognitive Science.
Now, researchers are considering AI’s ability to act as human subjects in fields such as psychology, political science, economics, and market research. No one is yet suggesting that chatbots can completely replace humans in behavioral studies. But they may act as convenient stand-ins (替代者) in pilot studies and for designing experiments, saving time and money. Language models might also help with experiments that would be too impractical, or even dangerous to run with people. “It’s a really interesting time,” says Ayelet Israeli, a marketing professor at Harvard Business School who believes the models’ impact on behavioral research could amount to a “revolution”. “Some of these results are just astonishing.”
32. What is a problem facing Kurt Gray at the start of a study
A. Online participants demand higher pay.
B. Volunteers dislike the online experiment.
C. Preparations take lots of time and effort.
D. Researchers lack skills to function in teams.
33. How does Kurt Gray find GPT
A. Demanding. B. Worrying. C. Amusing. D. Satisfying.
34. What is an advantage of language models according to the text
A. They can be applied to cases difficult to study.
B. They may replace human subjects completely.
C. They will improve people’s well-being.
D. They might promote economic growth.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. What Has AI Brought About B. What Do We Expect of GPT
C. Should We Get Rid of Chatbots D. Can AI Help Behavioral Research

While there’s nothing quite like watching a movie at the theater, watching a movie at home is often more convenient, more comfortable, and less expensive. 36 Either way, you’ll need to pick a great movie, make your space movie-ready, and prepare some delicious foods.
37 Maybe you want to enjoy your movie alone, or maybe you want to round up some friends or family members to watch with you. It’s your call. Watching a movie with others can be exciting, but it also means that you might need to deal with a movie selection.
Pick a movie type. If you are watching alone, simply pick the type that you’re in the mood to watch. If you’re stressed, a comedy could help you relax. If you want some excitement, go for a horror film. On the other hand, deciding on a type as a group can be hard, particularly for groups. 38
Look through available movies within the type. Browse (浏览) movies within your own collection and use a Blu-ray player to watch them. 39 For each movie you consider, check out online review s to get a better idea of movie content and quality.
Check movie ratings if you are watching with children. If you are watching a movie with kids, be certain to check movie ratings as you go through to help you find age-appropriate content. 40 You should do research on your own as well.
A. Decide if you want company.
B. Choose a space for your “home theater”.
C. Your room could also serve as a nice cinema.
D. When in doubt, pick a popular type, like adventure or comedy.
E. Or take a look at the selections on streaming services like Hulu.
F. You may want to watch a movie alone or along with your friends.

Positive Action Fuels Hope
“I’m not going back to group therapy (治疗). I refuse to be treated like that.” The voice was so loud that I had to hold the phone away from my ear.
Alicia Gonzalez suffered from depression. This was her second month at the homeless shelter, where I work as a case manager.
Alicia had been a nurse for 10 years. Her work was intense and demanding, and she loved it. To her, the trauma (精神创伤) she’d suffered was that her son lost his life in a car crash. With her brain overloaded by the trauma, she couldn’t focus on her work. Finally, she had to quit her job. With no income, she couldn’t pay her rent. For almost three years, Alicia lived in her truck. Alicia told me all this at our first meeting.
“I want to help you,” I said. “There are lots of resources here. All I ask is that you tell me what’s going on with you. That way I can make sure you’re getting the services you need.”
“I’ll try,” she said. “It’s just hard. I used to feel as though what I did mattered. Now...” Her voice became quiet. Before I could say something, she stood and walked out of the room.
Two months later, I still felt as if I hadn’t gotten through to Alicia. Sometimes the things sending her into a violent anger were so minor—a piece of rubbish someone had dropped on the floor—it was hard for me to think of coping skills that didn’t sound like I was criticizing her.
Maybe this latest talk in group therapy was the last straw (稻草). “Finding something small you can feel good about can help you cope with anger,” I suggested. “It doesn’t need to be some huge thing.” Even as I said it, I wondered, “Was that really the best advice I could come up with ” Alicia took a long deep breath. “I know,” she said.

第一节
One possible version:
Dear Mike,
Knowing that you are interested in Chinese culture, I’m writing to recommend an online course, Festival s inChina. Scheduled to take place every Saturday afternoon this term, the course covers various topics of traditional Chinese festivals, ranging from their origins to distinct features. I’m sure that you will find the course more than entertaining. To attend it, you have to register at our school’s website. The teachers will get in touch with you in 24 hours.
Wish you good luck!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
A few weeks later, I saw her in the hallway with a rubbish bag. She was picking up a candy wrapper on the floor. Her mouth wasn’t pressed into an angry line. Actually, she was smiling. What was going on She must have seen the question in my eyes. “Someone did it,” she said in a silky tone. We didn’t have a cleaning service at the shelter, but soon Alicia had the place shining. She cleaned the hallways and emptied the dustbins. She still called me a lot, but more and more it was to tell me how great a therapy session went.
In March, Alicia was offered a job doing housekeeping at the shelter. It’s a part of work therapy. She has found that housekeeping gives her the calm to learn coping skills. And she’s studying for the courses she’ll need to renew her nursing license. Her life again focuses on helping others. “I think I can make a difference,” she told me the other day. She’s right about that, but Alicia deserves a lot of the credit, too. I think of her when I’m struggling at work, and I remember that every journey starts with a single small step.
