Of course, my brother Michael and I were excited when she put forward the idea. Michael, 23, was finishing up an engineering degree. And I had already borrowed a lot of money for my college education. We weren’t going to be able to have a trip like this on our own for quite some time. Obviously, we thought this was the best idea our mother had ever had.
But we received phone calls and emails from my mother every day as the date of travelling was near. “Don’t forget to make copies of your passports.” “Make sure to call the bank.” “And seriously, Cara, pack sweaters.You’re going to be cold.” It had been seven years after I left home.

In February, Dr. Robert Lefkowitz published a memoir (回忆录) called A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Stockholm: The Adrenaline-Fueled Adventures of an Accidental Scientist. As a physician and biochemist, Lefkowitz is a professor of biochemistry and chemistry at the Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina.
In a recent conversation via video, Lefkowitz said that he wanted his memoir to be “funny, interesting, and easy to understand”. In the book, Lefkowitz humorously describes his Journey from a cardiologist (or a heart doctor) to a biochemist.
Lefkowitz’s dream of becoming a doctor began when he was eight years old and growing up in the Bronx of New York City. After his father died of a heart attack, Lefkowitz made up his mind to be a cardiologist. He earned his medical degree at Columbia University.
Lefkowitz is no stranger to conducting experiments and making discoveries. He was awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize for Chemistry with Brian Kobilka. The two scientists were honored for their discoveries that could help unlock the secrets of many diseases.
When asked what played the most important role in his success, Lefkowitz mentioned about himself and he described himself as “reasonably intelligent and creative, hardworking, and not easily disturbed”. He added that being funny could also be very good for you and the people around you.
Before winning the Nobel Prize, Lefkowitz did countless experiments, and only 1 out of 50 turned out OK. “With difficult decisions I’ve had to make, I tend to make them with my heart rather than my head.” Lefkowitz said. “However, I don’t mean that deciding with your heart is always right.”
At age 78, the scientist has no plans for slowing down. “My body and mind are still working,” he said. “I want to continue running my lab at Duke University and writing and publishing research papers.”
24. What directly motivated Lefkowitz to be a doctor
A. His conversation with a cardiologist.
B. His father’s death from a heart attack.
C. His enthusiasm for a doctor’s memoir.
D. His poor physical health in childhood.
25. What is the key to Lefkowitz’s success in his own opinion
A. His good teamwork. B. His family’s support.
C. His positive qualities. D. His interest in research.
26. Which of the following can best describe Lefkowitz according to the last paragraph
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Bad luck brings good luck.
C. You are never too old to work. D. Experience is the best teacher.
27. Where is the passage probably taken from
A. A travel journal B. A play review
C. A short story D. A science magazine
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C 27. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了内科医生兼生物学家莱夫科维茨的一些人生事迹和贡献。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“After his father died of a heart attack, Lefkowitz made up his mind to be a cardiologist. He earned his medical degree at Columbia University. (父亲死于心脏病后，莱夫科维茨决心成为一名心脏病学家)”可知，父亲死于心脏病直接促使他成为一名医生。故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“When asked what played the most important role in his success, Lefkowitz mentioned about himself and he described himself as ‘reasonably intelligent and creative, hardworking, and not easily disturbed’. (当被问及什么在他的成功中起到了最重要的作用时，莱夫科维茨提到了自己，他形容自己‘相当聪明、有创造力、勤奋、不容易被打扰’)”可知，“自己聪明，有创造力，勤奋，不容易被打扰”这些都是积极的品质。因此，在他自己看来，莱夫科维茨成功的关键是他的优点。故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“At age 78, the scientist has no plans for slowing down. (这位78岁的科学家没有放慢脚步的计划)”可知，即使年纪很大了，莱夫科维茨依旧不停止工作。因此，从文章最后一段中可以推断出最能描述莱夫科维茨的是C项“活到老，工作到老”。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了内科医生兼生物学家莱夫科维茨的一些人生事迹和贡献。结合第一段“As a physician and biochemist, Lefkowitz is a professor of biochemistry and chemistry at the Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina. (作为一名医生和生物化学家，莱夫科维茨是北卡罗来纳州达勒姆杜克大学医学中心的生物化学和化学教授)”推知，这篇文章可能出自一本科学杂志。故选D。

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room is equipped with a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. There’s no shower or washbasin.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan, Yicai Global reports. The idea of the shared fitness experience is not entirely nascent. Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident investors are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
28. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
29. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Let down curtains for privacy. B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone. D. Have a shower before exercise.
30. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
31. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了新兴产业：共享健身房，以及共享健身房的一些特点和使用方法，以及这个项目的创立过程等。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.(与普通健身房不同的是，新建的共享健身房是供个人使用的小型独立房间，通常设置在生活社区附)”可知，共享健身房和普通健身房的不同之处在于，共享健身房每次只容纳一个人。故选A。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit(保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.(与共享单车类似，用户可以通过智能手机应用程序定位共享健身房，提前预订房间，然后需要扫描二维码才能使用。用户需缴纳99元可退还的押金，每分钟收费1元)”可知，需要智能手机才能使用APP扫码，故想要使用共享健身房的用户需要一部智能手机。故选C。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.(去年12月，总部位于上海的科技公司VRUN在办公楼和公寓楼里设置了共享跑步机)”|可知，这个共享健身体验的观点不是新的。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题．根据第一段“After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.(在自行车和雨伞在中国被共享之后，一些公司开始关注健身市场，因此共享健身房开始在北京的街道上出现)”可知，文章由第一段的话题引出共享健身房的一些特点和使用方法，以及这个项目的创立过程z。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍共享健身房。故选B。
D
With the invention of the Internet, humanity is now experiencing an adventure toward technological advancement. Nowadays, technology assists us with everyday tasks such as driving, grocery shopping and even dating. Technology is so closely connected to our lives that it’s easy to overlook one important question: When technology really starts to control the world around us, what comes next
Many experts and workers are scared that automation will take jobs from people who need them and give those jobs to robots. I understand their concern. However, if robots are outperforming us at our jobs, then what do humans have left to offer We have the emotions and imagination that make us human. A machine might work faster than a person, but that’s because humans built the machines that way. That, itself, is an amazing accomplishment of the human imagination. We are talented, passionate creatures, who do not deserve to be trapped in miserable jobs anymore!
By now, I hope you’re curious to hear which occupations we should focus on in the future. The obvious answer is jobs in technology and robotics. Tech-related jobs will continue to be in big demand, and people who work in these fields will continue to become more important. We should be grateful to them for doing work to take us higher as a society. Besides, we should also focus on jobs in the arts and entertainment. It may sound crazy, but what could better reflect the creativity of the human mind than the arts I believe technology has opened up our world, allowing us to share our imaginations with everyone!
So, we must ensure that future generations know that we mean it when we say, “follow your dreams.” Welcome to the 21st century: what a time to be alive! There has never been a better time to be yourself, and I can only see it getting even better from here.
32. Why does the author end paragraph 1 with a question
A. To present a fact. B. To illustrate a problem.
C. To ask for approval. D. To arouse thinking.
33. What’s the author’s attitude towards technological advancement
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
34. Why are art-related jobs also important
A. They have opened up our world. B. They help people realize their dreams.
C. They will be in great demand in the future. D. They can show the innovation of human.
35. What is the tone of the passage
A. Narrative and serious. B. Persuasive and positive.
C. Descriptive and critical. D. Informative and objective.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讲述的是科技的进步使得机器工作代替了人类的工作，让人们对未来的工作担忧。然而，人类有情感和想象力，是机器无法替代的。因此，未来应该重视科技和机器人领域的工作，同时也应该注重艺术和娱乐领域的工作。我们应该鼓励未来的一代追求自己的梦想。现在是21世纪，是一个美好的时代，而且未来将会更加美好。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“With the invention of the Internet, humanity is now experiencing an adventure toward technological advancement. Nowadays, technology assists us with everyday tasks such as driving, grocery shopping and even dating. Technology is so closely connected to our lives that it’s easy to overlook one important question: When technology really starts to control the world around us, what comes next (随着互联网的发明，人类正在经历一场技术进步的冒险。如今，科技帮助我们完成日常任务，比如开车、购物甚至约会。科技与我们的生活联系如此紧密，以至于我们很容易忽视一个重要的问题：当科技真正开始控制我们周围的世界时，接下来会发生什么？)”可知，文章第一段看门见山，引出话题：科技对人类的影响。作者在第一段结尾提出一个问题，是为了引起读者的思考和注意本文要讨论的问题：当科技发展到开始控制我们周围的世界时，人类的生活会受到什么影响。通过提问，作者希望读者能够思考和思索技术对我们生活的影响，并引发对未来的思考和讨论。故选D项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“A machine might work faster than a person, but that’s because humans built the machines that way. That, itself, is an amazing accomplishment of the human imagination. We are talented, passionate creatures, who do not deserve to be trapped in miserable jobs anymore!(机器可能比人工作得更快，但那是因为人类就是这样建造机器的。这本身就是人类想象力的惊人成就。我们是才华横溢、充满激情的生物，我们不应该再被困在痛苦的工作中了！)”可知，作者认为人类创造了机器，人类可以控制机器，我们应该为自己创造出来的机器而感到自豪，由此可推知，作者对技术进步的态度是赞成的。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Besides, we should also focus on jobs in the arts and entertainment. It may sound crazy, but what could better reflect the creativity of the human mind than the arts I believe technology has opened up our world, allowing us to share our imaginations with everyone! (此外，我们还应该关注艺术和娱乐方面的工作。这听起来可能很疯狂，但有什么能比艺术更能反映人类思维的创造力呢？我相信科技打开了我们的世界，让我们与大家分享我们的想象力！)”可知，与艺术相关的工作之所以重要，是因为这些工作通过科技，打开了我们的世界，展现了人类的创造力、想象力。故选A项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Nowadays, technology assists us with everyday tasks such as driving, grocery shopping and even dating. (如今，科技帮助我们完成日常任务，比如开车、购物甚至约会。)”，作者描述了技术的现状及其对日常生活的影响，强调了它与人类生活的密切联系，这种描述的语气有助于为随后对技术控制世界的潜在后果进行批判性分析奠定基础。第二段以批判的视角反映了作者对技术对人类就业的负面影响的担忧，并提出了关于人类在机器控制的世界中的价值和目的的问题。同时，作者强调了人类情感和想象力的重要性，并将它们与机器的效率进行了对比。这一批判性分析表明，人类具有独特的品质，不能被技术复制，应该在未来的职业中得到重视和利用。最后，作者建议关注科技和机器人领域的工作，以及艺术和娱乐领域的工作。这一批判性观点挑战了传统的工作角色观念，鼓励人们转向需要创造力和创新的领域，强调了人类想象力在技术时代蓬勃发展的潜力。故文章的基调为“Descriptive and critical(描述性和批判性)”。故选C项。

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
During breakfast, Alan suggested going to the Lego Land to have fun and his mom agreed.
“We’ll stop by the supermarket and buy some snacks and fruits. Now hurry and eat and then we’ll go. It’s going to be a lovely day. Grandma is coming with us. She’ll be here any minute.”
Alan ate his breakfast and then ran into his room to get his shoes. The problem was that he could only find one of them. He looked under his bed, but all he could see were dirty pants. He moved some of his toys out of the way, but still couldn’t find his shoe. After he had checked everywhere in his room, he ran into the kitchen. “Mom, I can’t find my shoe. Will you wait while I look for it ” he asked.
His mom thought about how many times she’d told Alan to clean his room up. She said something to Alan’s grandma in a low voice. Then, she said to Alan,“You will have to stay home. Your dad and I will take your brother Alex to the Lego Land. Grandma will stay at home with you.”
“No! Please wait for me. I want to go to the Lego Land,” Alan cried. “I’m sorry, Alan. I’ve told you a dozen times to clean your room and you did not do it. You can’t find your shoe now. It’s your own fault for not cleaning your room.You will stay home.”
Alan ran into his bedroom, crying. His mom came to the door and said, “Alan, clean that room of yours before I get home. I’ve told Grandma not to give you any sweets until you make your room clean and tidy.” She went out with Alex and the brothers’ dad. After a minute, they drove away.

Alan sat on his bed and cried for a long time. And then he wiped his tears and started to clean his room. It took him two hours to clean up his room. “I did it!” he said proudly. He even found his missing shoe. He ran to the living room. “Grandma, come and see. I cleaned my room and found my shoe.” Grandma looked at Alan's room and smiled. “If you had kept it this way, you wouldn't have lost your shoe and your mom wouldn't have punished you,” she said.
Alan and his grandma were sitting at the table, eating when his mom,dad and Alex came home. “Well, look at Alan's room! It's clean,” his dad said. “How was the Lego Land Did you have fun I wish I could have gone there with you,” Alan said. “If you keep your room clean, we may go to the Lego Land again next month,” his mom said. From then on, Alan tried to keep his room clean.

In February, Dr. Robert Lefkowitz published a memoir (回忆录) called A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Stockholm: The Adrenaline-Fueled Adventures of an Accidental Scientist. As a physician and biochemist, Lefkowitz is a professor of biochemistry and chemistry at the Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina.
In a recent conversation via video, Lefkowitz said that he wanted his memoir to be “funny, interesting, and easy to understand”. In the book, Lefkowitz humorously describes his Journey from a cardiologist (or a heart doctor) to a biochemist.
Lefkowitz’s dream of becoming a doctor began when he was eight years old and growing up in the Bronx of New York City. After his father died of a heart attack, Lefkowitz made up his mind to be a cardiologist. He earned his medical degree at Columbia University.
Lefkowitz is no stranger to conducting experiments and making discoveries. He was awarded the 2012 Nobel Prize for Chemistry with Brian Kobilka. The two scientists were honored for their discoveries that could help unlock the secrets of many diseases.
When asked what played the most important role in his success, Lefkowitz mentioned about himself and he described himself as “reasonably intelligent and creative, hardworking, and not easily disturbed”. He added that being funny could also be very good for you and the people around you.
Before winning the Nobel Prize, Lefkowitz did countless experiments, and only 1 out of 50 turned out OK. “With difficult decisions I’ve had to make, I tend to make them with my heart rather than my head.” Lefkowitz said. “However, I don’t mean that deciding with your heart is always right.”
At age 78, the scientist has no plans for slowing down. “My body and mind are still working,” he said. “I want to continue running my lab at Duke University and writing and publishing research papers.”
24. What directly motivated Lefkowitz to be a doctor
A. His conversation with a cardiologist.
B. His father’s death from a heart attack.
C His enthusiasm for a doctor’s memoir.
D. His poor physical health in childhood.
25. What is the key to Lefkowitz’s success in his own opinion
A. His good teamwork. B. His family’s support.
C. His positive qualities. D. His interest in research.
26. Which of the following can best describe Lefkowitz according to the last paragraph
A. Practice makes perfect. B. Bad luck brings good luck.
C. You are never too old to work. D. Experience is the best teacher.
27. Where is the passage probably taken from
A. A travel journal B. A play review
C. A short story D. A science magazine

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, stand-alone rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-meter room is equipped with a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. There’s no shower or washbasin.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by smartphone application, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code for use. A refundable deposit (保证金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan, Yicai Global reports. The idea of the shared fitness experience is not entirely nascent. Last December, the Shanghai-based technology company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident investors are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Center published a report which predicts that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
28. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one
A. Holding one person at a time. B. Standing in the living zone.
C. Offering open spaces. D. Having some advanced equipment.
29. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room
A. Let down curtains for privacy. B. Pay 100 yuan first.
C. Use a smartphone. D. Have a shower before exercise.
30. What does the underlined word “nascent” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Simple. B. Popular. C. Satisfying. D. New.
31. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To advertise a technology company. B. To introduce shared gym rooms.
C. To support the shared gym rooms. D. To predict the future of shared gym rooms.
D
With the invention of the Internet, humanity is now experiencing an adventure toward technological advancement. Nowadays, technology assists us with everyday tasks such as driving, grocery shopping and even dating. Technology is so closely connected to our lives that it’s easy to overlook one important question: When technology really starts to control the world around us, what comes next
Many experts and workers are scared that automation will take jobs from people who need them and give those jobs to robots. I understand their concern. However, if robots are outperforming us at our jobs, then what do humans have left to offer We have the emotions and imagination that make us human. A machine might work faster than a person, but that’s because humans built the machines that way. That, itself, is an amazing accomplishment of the human imagination. We are talented, passionate creatures, who do not deserve to be trapped in miserable jobs anymore!
By now, I hope you’re curious to hear which occupations we should focus on in the future. The obvious answer is jobs in technology and robotics. Tech-related jobs will continue to be in big demand, and people who work in these fields will continue to become more important. We should be grateful to them for doing work to take us higher as a society. Besides, we should also focus on jobs in the arts and entertainment. It may sound crazy, but what could better reflect the creativity of the human mind than the arts I believe technology has opened up our world, allowing us to share our imaginations with everyone!
So, we must ensure that future generations know that we mean it when we say, “follow your dreams.” Welcome to the 21st century: what a time to be alive! There has never been a better time to be yourself, and I can only see it getting even better from here.
32. Why does the author end paragraph 1 with a question
A. To present a fact. B. To illustrate a problem.
C. To ask for approval. D. To arouse thinking.
33. What’s the author’s attitude towards technological advancement
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
34. Why are art-related jobs also important
A. They have opened up our world. B. They help people realize their dreams.
C. They will be in great demand in the future. D. They can show the innovation of human.
35. What is the tone of the passage
A. Narrative and serious. B. Persuasive and positive.
C. Descriptive and critical. D. Informative and objective.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
During breakfast, Alan suggested going to the Lego Land to have fun and his mom agreed.
“We’ll stop by the supermarket and buy some snacks and fruits. Now hurry and eat and then we’ll go. It’s going to be a lovely day. Grandma is coming with us. She’ll be here any minute.”
Alan ate his breakfast and then ran into his room to get his shoes. The problem was that he could only find one of them. He looked under his bed, but all he could see were dirty pants. He moved some of his toys out of the way, but still couldn’t find his shoe. After he had checked everywhere in his room, he ran into the kitchen. “Mom, I can’t find my shoe. Will you wait while I look for it ” he asked.
His mom thought about how many times she’d told Alan to clean his room up. She said something to Alan’s grandma in a low voice. Then, she said to Alan,“You will have to stay home. Your dad and I will take your brother Alex to the Lego Land. Grandma will stay at home with you.”
“No! Please wait for me. I want to go to the Lego Land,” Alan cried. “I’m sorry, Alan. I’ve told you a dozen times to clean your room and you did not do it. You can’t find your shoe now. It’s your own fault for not cleaning your room.You will stay home.”
Alan ran into his bedroom, crying. His mom came to the door and said, “Alan, clean that room of yours before I get home. I’ve told Grandma not to give you any sweets until you make your room clean and tidy.” She went out with Alex and the brothers’ dad. After a minute, they drove away.
