There’s nothing more fascinating than an inspiring, unputdownable read. Whether it’s the latest autobiographical hit or gripping cult novel, finding a book you really connect with is always a cherished win.
As we say goodbye to our summer beach reads, we’ve already begun stockpiling a list of winter page-turners. Top of the pile: Fiona McCallum’s new novel, A Life Of Her Own.
Labelled one of Australia’s master storytellers, Fiona McCallum is known for her heart-warming stories of self-discovery and already boasts 10 bestsellers.
Her latest release is set to be no different, telling the uplifting story of overcoming adversity (逆境) and following your dreams.
The tale centres on Alice Hamilton, a recently-graduated mature-age student who is looking to make her next career move. Struggling to navigate her way through the job market, Alice is faced with the dilemma of finding a financially-secure job that she enjoys — a feat that she soon discovers to be difficult — while maintaining a healthy and committed relationship with her partner David.
Faced with the increasing pressure of unemployment, Alice interviews for a role at a major real estate agency in Melbourne and lands the job. Excited about the prospect of the new role, yet filled with anxiety about having to make new friends, Alice’s circumstances unfortunately take a turn for the worst.
Bullied and exploited (压榨) by her boss Carmel on a daily basis, Alice has to find the courage to face her fears, prioritise her wellbeing and stand up for herself. However, the consequences of her actions lead her into further trouble. As Alice’s life continues to spiral, an unexpected trip back to the country town she once fought to escape provides her with a newfound perspective on her career path and relationship.
Returning to Melbourne with clarity and a fresh outlook, Alice decides to take charge of her life. Faced with making tough decisions in order to do so, Alice has two possible outcomes: crumble under the pressure or find the strength to chase her dreams.

C. Courageous. D. Kind-hearted.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text

C. To encourage to fearlessly chase dreams.
D. To recommend a winter fascinating read.

Warmer oceans can cause coral (珊瑚) bleaching. Bleaching happens when the coral, colonies of tiny animals called polyps, lose colored algae (藻类) living in their bodies and turn completely white. Without the algae, the coral loses its main food source and can die.
In 2021, the United Nations reported a 14 percent loss of corals across the world largely from rising sea temperatures in the previous 13 years. Australia declared mass bleaching events in 2022 across large parts of the Great Barrier Reef, the fourth since 2016.
Reefs in Hawaii, Florida, and the Caribbean were all severely affected, but thankfully some coral areas were not. Scientists looked into the characteristics of these corals and their ecosystems to see how others could be protected. Warm water reefs in the tropics are the worst affected by bleaching, but they also contain corals with better heat resistance.
Research is focused on finding genes for heat tolerance so that they can be passed on to future generations. Biologists mix corals that are more resilient to higher temperatures with those that are not and the resulting hybrid generation has a better chance of survival.
Researchers in Florida’s reefs have been using ocean nurseries to replant coral with batches that contain genes resistant to heat, acidification, and disease. Those areas have recovered within a year.
Other projects like Revive and Restore are using methods like preserving older coral populations’ sperm and eggs (biobanking) and using corals with better adaptability characteristics in breeding. The project also believes that boosting biodiversity by restoring (恢复) seabirds to islands, and ridding them of invasive species like rats, helps coral reefs thrive.
Ultimately, scientists say that without a serious reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, 99 percent of the world’s coral reefs will be gone by the end of the century. There is a limit to how quickly coral can adapt, especially given the rate of climate puter simulations have shown that mild or moderate warming allows coral to adapt, but if temperatures rise rapidly then extinction is certain.
28. What mainly causes coral bleaching
A. Loss of algae. B. Lack of food.
C. Warm oceans. D. Ocean pollution.
29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Coral reefs in tropics are easier to bleach.
B. Some corals are found better to resist heat.
C. Coral reefs in some areas are badly affected.
D. Ecosystems in some coral areas are destroyed.
30. What measure helps coral reefs survive
A. Breeding hybrid generation with heat resistance.
B. Replanting batches of corals containing diseases.
C. Restoring seabirds of islands and invasive animals.
D. Setting no limitation of greenhouse gas emissions.
31. Which section may the text come from
A. Botany. B. Culture. C. Nature. D. Education.
D
I was born in a small Chinese village in the 1990s. My grandmother was a humble, hardworking farmer, but she was never able to earn much money from the land. After my parents’ divorce, I went to live with her and discovered that she had a secret part-time job. After school each day, I would join her in the landfill as a trash (垃圾) picker. She collected recyclable bottles while I hunted for unfinished ballpoint pen refills to reuse. The landfills were my first encounter with the world outside of my small town — some of the trash had come from the West.
Although she had never finished primary school, my grandmother always dreamed that I would go to college. With the money she made selling bottles, she bought food and supported my education. Throughout my upbringing, she raised me to believe that the possibilities were limitless. The confidence she instilled allowed me to move to the United States, earn a PhD in mechanical engineering, and pivot into chemical engineering during my postdoc fellowship.
I now understand that the trash from rich countries redirected to the landfills in China is part of a cycle of environmental injustice. My grandmother considered the plastic bottles she found to be treasures because they could support us financially, but millions of tons of plastic trash are still exported from developed countries every year to be stored or burned in emerging economies, polluting the ground, water, and air.
As I came to see my childhood experiences in a different light, I developed an interest in designing technologies that can address environmental injustice. I decided to work toward transforming carbon emissions into sustainable commodities, with the goal of benefiting marginalized communities. My grandmother inspired these efforts, and I hope my work will improve the lives of those like her.
When I visited my grandmother in 2019, I discovered that the town government had posted a tribute to education in the central square, which includes my story and encourages others to pursue their dreams. The display reminds me how far I have come, but the square also holds the memory of where I began: It was one of the places my grandmother and I frequented to collect trash.
What can be inferred about “me” from Paragraph 1
A. I was born into a poor family.
B. I was abandoned by my parents.
C. I had no money for primary education.
D. I began to know the west from the landfills.
33. How did grandmother influence “me” during “my” growth
A. She offered me hope and confidence. B. She taught me to love my job and life.
C. She satisfied everything that I desired. D. She advised me to design technology.
34. What does the author think of the trash from the west now
A. It is still a resource of living. B. It is a threat to environment.
C. It is a great benefit to China. D. It is a treasure of grandmother.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Trash Can Also Yield Gold
B. Every Coin Has Two Sides
C. Grandmother: A Hard-working Trash Picker
D. One’s Trash: Another’s Treasured Education

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
One day, someone had to pick colors for the traffic lights and they decided on green, yellow and red. Why is that Maybe you have never really thought about this. Or maybe you have wondered this for years. 36 . Find out more below.
To find out why these colors were chosen, it would be helpful to know where traffic lights (and their colors) come from. In 1910, the first traffic signals were installed in the country. Officers were using whistles and lights to maintain the flow of cars by letting drivers know when to stop or go. 37 . At that time, there were no rules about the kind of lights or patterns that had to be used. In 1935, the Federal Highway Administration set up the “Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices” that held standards for all signs and signals. 38 .
So, where did the specific colors come from 39 . In these traffic lights red meant stop, white meant go and green meant “proceed with caution”. But the color white could be easily mistaken for something else by train drivers, they moved from white to green for the sign for “go”. And they made yellow the color for “proceed with caution”.
But then why red The color red is the color with the longest wavelength. 40 . And that is very helpful when it comes to warning signs and traffic lights that want you to stop for safety.
A. This is why traffic lights are green, red and yellow
B. In 1920, William Potts created the first traffic light
C. And that means that you can see it from further away
D. These lights would look different everywhere you went
E. Trains already used light signals before the traffic lights
F. Either way, you will get an answer to this question today
G. That manual required the traffic lights to be red, yellow and green

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher I 41 , mine. Her name was Mrs White.

I’m glad I didn’t wait on them though. Pretty is easier to spell but it doesn’t 58 as much as you mean sometimes.
And thanks to Mrs White I had no 59 about writing what I meant even if I couldn’t quite spell it out. Because Life isn’t 60 . It’s Baeutiful.

答案详解
第一节
A
导读:印度有名的建筑师简介。
21. C 细节理解 根据“Hafeez Contractor”部分,Hafeez Contractor在哥伦比亚大学完成学业,根据“Bijoy Jain”部分,Bijoy Jain曾在洛杉矶和伦敦工作过。
22. B 细节理解 根据“Chitra Vishwanath”部分“...this Bangalore based architecture is a conservationist whose works are based on ecology.”可知,Chitra的建筑作品很注重生态建设。
23. A 推理判断 根据“Nariman Gandhi”部分第一句和第二句可知,Nariman Gandhi的建筑作品是非传统的,他的设计理念是非主流的。
B
导读:冬季读物推介。
24. B 词义猜测 根据第二段可知,告别了夏季沙滩读物,“我们”又为读者准备了一系列的冬季读物,首推书籍当属Fiona McCallum的新小说A Life Of Her Own。
25. C 细节理解 根据第五段可知,该书的主人公Alice Hamilton是一位刚刚毕业的成年学生,她正在寻求下一个职业发展机会。她目前正面临两难选择:既要找一个自己喜欢的有经济保障的工作,还要保持与伴侣David的健康稳定的感情关系。因此毕业之后她首先要做的是找一个有保障的工作。
26. C 推理判断 根据第七段第一句可知,Alice由于在新的工作岗位上每天都受到老板的欺凌和压榨,她为了自己的健康幸福,决定站出来勇敢面对自己的恐惧。同时根据最后一段第一句,Alice回到墨尔本以后,以清晰的思路和新的眼光决定自己主导自己的生活。
27. D 写作意图 根据文章第一、二段可知,作者向读者推介冬季优秀读物,重点介绍了该书的作者和内容。

61. visitors 考查名词的数 到成都的游客数量是模糊的,此处应视为复数,符合常理。
62. surrounding 考查分词做定语 根据句子结构,此空应填动词非谓语形式,该形式作后置定语修饰中心名词four flying birds,中心名词与该空成主谓关系,且表状态,故填现在分词。

M: You are not going to give it up, are you
W: No way! I’ll never find another apartment like it around here. But I don’t like the idea of paying three months for an empty apartment, either. So, I’m looking for some one to take it while I’m away.
M: Um, let me think. Oh, I know just a person. An old colleague of mine, Jim Thomas. He is coming here to do some research this summer, from June to August.
W: Well, that’s exactly when I’ll be away!
M: Tell you what: I’ll be calling Jim late this week anyway, so I’ll mention it to him.
W: Well, thanks, Bill.

W: I hope I’ve given you a clear idea of the schedule for your London weekend. And, before I finish, let me just give you some advice which should make your stay more enjoyable. Firstly, please do remember to put on some comfortable shoes. London is a big place, and whatever you do, you’ll find yourself doing quite a lot of walking. So, comfortable shoes are really necessary. And secondly, let me ask you to please look after your money. Keep it safe at all times, and then you will not have any unpleasant accident, which could ruin your whole weekend. You’ll find a copy of your weekend’s schedule in your room. Take a look at it, and make sure you’re clear about everything. Well, that’s all from me for now. Go and leave your luggage in your rooms. I’ll be seeing you here again in fifteen minutes. Goodbye for now!
