Bailey Martin's running route starts on the gray gravel (砂砾) of her family's driveway. She'll run around the seven large bins and a garage on their farm. One full lap around is perfect for a runner like Martin. It's exactly 400 meters.
"If you can balance running at full speed on gravel, you can do that on the track too. I've definitely fallen a few,timcs taking these corners a bit too sharp," Martin said. It's a small price to pay for Martin, who enjoys the familiarity of the route. Every little thing helps when you' re blind.
At age 12, Martin was discovered to have acute macular neuroretinopathy, a rare disease without a known cure. About six months later, it cost Martin her vision. She was blind.
Martin didn't want to give up sports - she didn't want to lose the most important part of her life. Her mother said, "She hit lots of trees. She hit every ditch (沟渠). It didn't stop her. If she wants to do it, she'll figure it out."
Martin's story reached officials at OrCam, a technology company. The company developed a product called MyEye, which was created to help the visually impaired (受损的). The product sits on a user's glasses and with a camera, takes pictures of text, faces or other things. It then reads back what it sees to the user through a small microphone near the ear.
An OrCam official wanted to try it out on some users. The company was looking for visually impaired people with athletic backgrounds. Martin was suggested. OrCam told her to make a tape telling her story. The tape inspired company officials.
Martin is driven to keep going and keep competing. The fact that she's overcome as much as she has even surprises and inspires herself.
"I look at my past self as more of an inspiration," Martin said. "Sometimes, I look back and appreciate how I got through and became the person that I am."

On 21 October, 2021, fans celebrated the 80th anniversary (周年纪念) of Wonder Woman's first appearance in a comic book. Wonder Woman' s publisher, DC Comics, said, "She is far more than just a warrior (战士). She's an ambassador for peace who champions love and compassion (同情心)"
Wonder Woman first appeared in All Star Comics Issue 8 in 1941. The character was created by William Moulton Marston and drawn by Harry G. Peter. Wonder Woman's powers include superhuman strength, reactions and speed. She can fly, has super senses and does not age.
In 1975, Wonder Woman got her own TV series starring Lynda Carter, which was hugely popular. In 2017, the first Wonder Woman film was released. It was the first superhero film to be directed by a woman, Patty Jenkins, and in 2020 Jenkins went on to make the sequel (续集), Wonder Woman 1984. When accepting an award, Jenkins said, "Lynda Carter is the woman who, when I was a child, came to life and showed me a woman who is everything. So incredible and strong but also sweet and thoughtful. That's what inspired me to make my movie."
Wonder Woman's story has changed many times over the years. One version says that her real name is Diana and she is a princess from an island. One day a pilot crashed his plane on her island and a competition was held to see who would take him back to the "Man's World". Diana won and took the pilot back to the US, where she took on the identity of Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman was not the very first female superhero but she is one of the most famous. She has been a constant in comics for 80 years. To appreciate what she has taught us, DC Comics has decided to highlight 23 inspiring women who are trying to make the world a better place in a new book. DC Comics says, Wonder Woman reminds us that there are no restrictions on what we're capable of - no limits to what we can achieve and no compromise (妥协) on justice and equality for all.
8.What do Jenkins' words in paragraph 3 want to tell us
A.Actors should learn from Carter.
B.Carter's movie was a real success.
C.She had a long-term friendship with Carter.
D.Carter's performance greatly influenced her.

Isaac Asimov's Foundation arrives on Apple TV+ nearly 80 years after the story's first publication. It's the first big adaptation of the famous science fiction novels - but it is going beyond just the events of that original 1951 novel to integrate elements from across Asimov's vast universe, including the subject that he's most famous for: robots.
Over the course of his career, Asimov is probably best known for both Foundation, and his robot stories and novels. In his introduction to his 1990 collection of robot stories, Robot Visions, Asimov explained that he wanted to flip the script on the types of robots that he'd grown up reading about in magazines. "I determined to write a robot story about a robot that was wisely used, that was not dangerous, and that did the job it was supposed to do." His first story was Robbie, published in 1940.
Asimov collected the various short stories that made up the Foundation and Robot worlds into two novels. I. Robot brought together nine of those original robot stories and came out in 1950, while the Foundation stories were released in three volumes called Foundation, Foundation and Empire, and Second Foundation. But he kept the two series separate, noting in his memoir (回忆录), "If I got tired of one of them (or if the readers did), I could continue with the other with a minimum of troubling overlap (重叠)."
Midway through the 1960s, Asimov ended up taking a bit of a break from writing science fiction novels, but was eventually enticed (怂恿) back in the early 1980s by his publisher, Doubleday. "Isaac, we want you to write a novel for us," editor Betty Prashker told him. A follow-up call from Doubleday clarified: "When Betty said 'a novel' , we meant `a science fiction novel'; and when we say `a science fiction novel' , we mean 'a Foundation novel.' " Dutifully, Asimov began to think up a continuation of the story, which would eventually become Foundation's Edge, the fourth volume of the series. When it hit bookstore shelves in 1982, it was an immediate bestseller.
12.What will Apple TV+ do according to the text
A.Use robots to rewrite the Foundation series.
B.Broadcast the adaptation of Foundation.
C.Sell the Foundation series through live-stream.
D.Analyze elements in Foundation for the audience.
13.What does the underlined part "flip the script" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Assess the evidence. B.Consider the impact.
C.Write something clearly. D.Change something dramatically.
14.What can we learn about 1. Robot and the Foundation series
A.Their stories seldom overlap.
B.They both have three volumes.
C.They are short story collections.
D.Their stories are hard to continue.
15.What made Isaac return to the Foundation series
A.The request of his publisher.
B.His urge to write science fiction.
C.His boredom with an aimless life.
D.The success of the previous volumes.

Music has always been an essential part of my family. As a little girl, I often watched my mom singing with others. As I grew older, she and I would sing while we did the dishes or hung clothes. My brother Dean was also a musical soul. In good time or in bad, there was always music in our house. It shaped us, comforted us, and gave us a way to express feelings that might otherwise have gone unspoken.
After Dean became a father, we learned that his oldest son was on the autism spectrum. My nephew Carl did not handle social situations well, and sometimes even to speak aloud outside the family for him was a struggle. He worked very hard to overcome his fears, so much so that the year he was eight, he decided he wanted to be part of a music program with the other children in his Sunday school class. The part he had been offered was one that required him to sing a verse all on his own—a solo.
My brother carefully explained to him that this would mean singing in front of the audience. There would be no one singing with him. Carl considered this very carefully.After a couple of days, he decided that he would accept the part. He explained to us that he believed he could do it because it was a very special occasion. He said he knew his daddy would help him to be the best singer.
For over a month, he and his father practiced together. Every evening would find them locked away in the music room. My brother played the guitar, and my nephew's small voice came from somewhere deep down inside his little body. He gained confidence, and when the day of the concert arrived, he was certain all would go well. My brother waited backstage, giving Carl double thumbs-up, and he came out to sit with the rest of the family to watch and take photos.
Paragraph 1: When it was finally time for Carl to sing, the music played on, and he froze.
Paragraph 2: Everyone turned to see who was singing, while I knew it was my brother.

46.【答案】Many people fail to achieve ideal results even though they have strong interest in what they learn. The fact is that it can be quite demanding to have a better outcome without better learning habits.
Let's take the class for example. As is known to all, it's of vital importance to remain focused in class whether it is interesting or not. Some students, however, are always daydreaming, yawning or attracted by something else, thus contributing to the later time-consuming homework.
Forming better learning habit requires time, energy, determination and self-discipline. As for me, making a plan for your study is beneficial, and the plan should be updated according to the progress of your study from time to time. Secondly, you are expected to make full use of the time in the class and don't do anything irrelevant to the class.
Maybe it's easier said than done, but please never give up and keep practicing. Only in this way can better results be brought about.

47.【答案】When it was finally time for Dj to sing, the music played on, and he froze. Facing such a large group of audience was a first in his whole life. Lowering his head, he stood in the middle of the stage, not knowing what to do. The pianist started the music again but still nothing came out. The entire audience stared at the little boy and whispered, hoping he would cheer up and act out his part, which made the situation worse. Then the pianist started over again. Then came a beautiful melody from the dead silence, low but clear and powerful.
Everyone turned to see who was singing, while I knew it was my brother. Surprised at the unexpected melody, Dj lifted his head slowly and when he encountered his father's eyes, his eyes began to sparkle as well. After a while, he opened his mouth and began to sing along. With time going by, the little voice from somewhere deep down inside this little boy grew stronger and stronger, echoing and lingering in the hall. All people were immersed in the beautiful melody. When the show was over, thunderous applause exploded. Everyone cheered for this little boy's brilliant performance and his efforts to overcome his fears.

Bailey Martin's running route starts on the gray gravel (砂砾) of her family's driveway. She'll run around the seven large bins and a garage on their farm. One full lap around is perfect for a runner like Martin. It's exactly 400 meters.
"If you can balance running at full speed on gravel, you can do that on the track too. I've definitely fallen a few,timcs taking these corners a bit too sharp," Martin said. It's a small price to pay for Martin, who enjoys the familiarity of the route. Every little thing helps when you' re blind.
At age 12, Martin was discovered to have acute macular neuroretinopathy, a rare disease without a known cure. About six months later, it cost Martin her vision. She was blind.
Martin didn't want to give up sports - she didn't want to lose the most important part of her life. Her mother said, "She hit lots of trees. She hit every ditch (沟渠). It didn't stop her. If she wants to do it, she'll figure it out."
Martin's story reached officials at OrCam, a technology company. The company developed a product called MyEye, which was created to help the visually impaired (受损的). The product sits on a user's glasses and with a camera, takes pictures of text, faces or other things. It then reads back what it sees to the user through a small microphone near the ear.
An OrCam official wanted to try it out on some users. The company was looking for visually impaired people with athletic backgrounds. Martin was suggested. OrCam told her to make a tape telling her story. The tape inspired company officials.
Martin is driven to keep going and keep competing. The fact that she's overcome as much as she has even surprises and inspires herself.
"I look at my past self as more of an inspiration," Martin said. "Sometimes, I look back and appreciate how I got through and became the person that I am."

On 21 October, 2021, fans celebrated the 80th anniversary (周年纪念) of Wonder Woman's first appearance in a comic book. Wonder Woman' s publisher, DC Comics, said, "She is far more than just a warrior (战士). She's an ambassador for peace who champions love and compassion (同情心)"
Wonder Woman first appeared in All Star Comics Issue 8 in 1941. The character was created by William Moulton Marston and drawn by Harry G. Peter. Wonder Woman's powers include superhuman strength, reactions and speed. She can fly, has super senses and does not age.
In 1975, Wonder Woman got her own TV series starring Lynda Carter, which was hugely popular. In 2017, the first Wonder Woman film was released. It was the first superhero film to be directed by a woman, Patty Jenkins, and in 2020 Jenkins went on to make the sequel (续集), Wonder Woman 1984. When accepting an award, Jenkins said, "Lynda Carter is the woman who, when I was a child, came to life and showed me a woman who is everything. So incredible and strong but also sweet and thoughtful. That's what inspired me to make my movie."
Wonder Woman's story has changed many times over the years. One version says that her real name is Diana and she is a princess from an island. One day a pilot crashed his plane on her island and a competition was held to see who would take him back to the "Man's World". Diana won and took the pilot back to the US, where she took on the identity of Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman was not the very first female superhero but she is one of the most famous. She has been a constant in comics for 80 years. To appreciate what she has taught us, DC Comics has decided to highlight 23 inspiring women who are trying to make the world a better place in a new book. DC Comics says, Wonder Woman reminds us that there are no restrictions on what we're capable of - no limits to what we can achieve and no compromise (妥协) on justice and equality for all.
8.What do Jenkins' words in paragraph 3 want to tell us
A.Actors should learn from Carter.
B.Carter's movie was a real success.
C.She had a long-term friendship with Carter.
D.Carter's performance greatly influenced her.
9.What is the main idea of the last but one paragraph

10.Why has DC Comics decided to produce a new book about women

D.To introduce other female superheroes in Wonder Woman comics.

8.考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“When accepting an award, Jenkins said, ‘Lynda Carter is the woman who, when I was a child, came to life and showed me a woman who is everything. So incredible and strong but also sweet and thoughtful. That's what inspired me to make my movie.’”Jenkins 在领奖时说:“Lynda Carter是一个在我小时候就活过来的女人,她向我展示了一个无所不能的女人。她是如此不可思议、坚强,但又甜美体贴。这就是我拍摄电影的灵感所在。”可知在Jenkins小时候,Lynda Carter饰演的神奇女侠生动表现出女性的坚强、温柔和体贴,这也正是Jenkins拍摄神奇女侠续集的灵感来源。因此Lynda Carter的表演对Jenkins影响很大,故选D。
9.考查段落大意,根据倒数第二段“Wonder Woman's story has changed many times over the years. One version says that her real name is Diana and she is a princess from an island. One day a pilot crashed his plane on her island and a competition was held to see who would take him back to the‘Man's World’ Diana won and took the pilot back to the US, where she took on the identity of Wonder Woman.”多年来,神奇女侠的故事发生了多次变化。一个版本说她的真名是戴安娜,她是一位来自岛屿的公主。一天,一名飞行员在她的岛上坠毁了他的飞机,举行了一场比赛,看谁会把他带回“男人的世界”。戴安娜赢得了比赛,并将飞行员带回了美国,在那里她扮演了神奇女侠的身份。可知该段介绍了神奇女侠原名叫 Diana ,她在一场比赛中赢得了将坠机在岛上的飞行员送回人类世界的机会并成功做到了,从此以神奇女侠的身份示人。因此本段介绍的是神奇女侠的身世来源,故选A。
10.考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“To appreciate what she has taught us, DC Comics has decided to highlight 23 inspiring women who are trying to make the world a better place in a new book. ”为了感谢她教会我们的东西,DC漫画公司决定在新书中突出23位鼓舞人心的女性,她们正努力让世界变得更美好。可知DC Comics 为了感谢神奇女侠带来的正面影响决定出一本新书,故选C。
11.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“ Wonder Woman reminds us that there are no restrictions on what we're capable of - no limits to what we can achieve and no compromise (妥协) on justice and equality for all. ”神奇女侠提醒我们,我们的能力没有限制——我们能取得的成就没有限制,在所有人的正义和平等问题上也没有妥协。可知DC Comics认为神奇女侠的故事提醒我们,不要给自己的能力设限,一切皆有可能,故选B。
阅读理解
Isaac Asimov's Foundation arrives on Apple TV+ nearly 80 years after the story's first publication. It's the first big adaptation of the famous science fiction novels - but it is going beyond just the events of that original 1951 novel to integrate elements from across Asimov's vast universe, including the subject that he's most famous for: robots.
Over the course of his career, Asimov is probably best known for both Foundation, and his robot stories and novels. In his introduction to his 1990 collection of robot stories, Robot Visions, Asimov explained that he wanted to flip the script on the types of robots that he'd grown up reading about in magazines. "I determined to write a robot story about a robot that was wisely used, that was not dangerous, and that did the job it was supposed to do." His first story was Robbie, published in 1940.
Asimov collected the various short stories that made up the Foundation and Robot worlds into two novels. I. Robot brought together nine of those original robot stories and came out in 1950, while the Foundation stories were released in three volumes called Foundation, Foundation and Empire, and Second Foundation. But he kept the two series separate, noting in his memoir (回忆录), "If I got tired of one of them (or if the readers did), I could continue with the other with a minimum of troubling overlap (重叠)."
Midway through the 1960s, Asimov ended up taking a bit of a break from writing science fiction novels, but was eventually enticed (怂恿) back in the early 1980s by his publisher, Doubleday. "Isaac, we want you to write a novel for us," editor Betty Prashker told him. A follow-up call from Doubleday clarified: "When Betty said 'a novel' , we meant `a science fiction novel'; and when we say `a science fiction novel' , we mean 'a Foundation novel.' " Dutifully, Asimov began to think up a continuation of the story, which would eventually become Foundation's Edge, the fourth volume of the series. When it hit bookstore shelves in 1982, it was an immediate bestseller.
12.What will Apple TV+ do according to the text
A.Use robots to rewrite the Foundation series.
B.Broadcast the adaptation of Foundation.
C.Sell the Foundation series through live-stream.
D.Analyze elements in Foundation for the audience.
13.What does the underlined part "flip the script" in paragraph 2 mean
A.Assess the evidence. B.Consider the impact.
C.Write something clearly. D.Change something dramatically.
14.What can we learn about 1. Robot and the Foundation series
A.Their stories seldom overlap.
B.They both have three volumes.
C.They are short story collections.
D.Their stories are hard to continue.
15.What made Isaac return to the Foundation series
A.The request of his publisher.
B.His urge to write science fiction.
C.His boredom with an aimless life.
D.The success of the previous volumes.
【答案】12.B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了艾萨克 阿西莫夫的科幻小说《基地》被改编成电视剧。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇文学类阅读,首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,再读短文,从中找出相关信息,就可以确定正确答案。
12.考查细节理解。根据第一段“Isaac Asimov's Foundation arrives on Apple TV+ nearly 80 years after the story's first publication.It's the first big adaptation of the famous science fiction novels - but it is going beyond just the events of that original 1951 novel to integrate elements from across Asimov's vast universe,including the subject that he's most famous for:robots.”艾萨克 阿西莫夫基金会在故事首次出版近80年后登陆Apple TV+。这是对著名科幻小说的第一次大规模改编,但它超越了1951年那部原创小说的事件,融合了阿西莫夫广阔宇宙中的元素,包括他最著名的主题:机器人。可知,改编版的《基地》将在Apple TV+播出,故选B。
13.考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的“In his introduction to his 1990 collection of robot stories,Robot Visions,Asimov explained that he wanted to flip the script on the types of robots that he'd grown up reading about in magazines. ‘I determined to write a robot story about a robot that was wisely used,that was not dangerous,and that did the job it was supposed to do.’ His first story was Robbie,published in 1940.”阿西莫夫在介绍他1990年的机器人故事集《机器人愿景》时解释说,他想把剧本___他从小在杂志上读到的机器人类型。"我决心写一个机器人故事,讲述一个被明智地使用、不危险、完成了它应该做的工作的机器人。"他的第一个故事是1940年出版的《罗比》。可知,Asimov想要转变他自小从杂志上读到的机器人的类型,即划线部分 flip the script 意为"戏剧性地改变一些事情"。故选D。
14.考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“But he kept the two series separate,noting in his memoir (回忆录),‘If I got tired of one of them (or if the readers did),I could continue with the other with a minimum of troubling overlap (重叠)’.”但他在回忆录中指出,这两个系列是分开的, "如果我厌倦了其中一个(或者读者厌倦了),我可以继续阅读另一个,尽量减少令人不安的重叠。"可知,Asimov的这两个作品系列是相互独立的,二者的故事线少有重叠,故选A。
15.考查理解理解。根据最后一段中的“Dutifully,Asimov began to think up a continuation of the story,which would eventually become Foundation's Edge,the fourth volume of the series.When it hit bookstore shelves in 1982,it was an immediate bestseller.”阿西莫夫开始认真思考这个故事的延续,最终成为该系列的第四卷《基金会的边缘》。当它在1982年上架时,它立即成为畅销书。可知,Asimov在中断科幻小说写作十几年之后,在出版商的要求下又重新开始续写《基地》,故选A。

46.请你以"Better learning habits lead to better results."为题,用英语写篇短文投稿,内容包括:谈谈两者之间的关系; 举例说明; 提出建议。
【答案】Many people fail to achieve ideal results even though they have strong interest in what they learn. The fact is that it can be quite demanding to have a better outcome without better learning habits.
Let's take the class for example. As is known to all, it's of vital importance to remain focused in class whether it is interesting or not. Some students, however, are always daydreaming, yawning or attracted by something else, thus contributing to the later time-consuming homework.
Forming better learning habit requires time, energy, determination and self-discipline. As for me, making a plan for your study is beneficial, and the plan should be updated according to the progress of your study from time to time. Secondly, you are expected to make full use of the time in the class and don't do anything irrelevant to the class.
Maybe it's easier said than done, but please never give up and keep practicing. Only in this way can better results be brought about.

47.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。
Music has always been an essential part of my family. As a little girl, I often watched my mom singing with others. As I grew older, she and I would sing while we did the dishes or hung clothes. My brother Dean was also a musical soul. In good time or in bad, there was always music in our house. It shaped us, comforted us, and gave us a way to express feelings that might otherwise have gone unspoken.
After Dean became a father, we learned that his oldest son was on the autism spectrum. My nephew Carl did not handle social situations well, and sometimes even to speak aloud outside the family for him was a struggle. He worked very hard to overcome his fears, so much so that the year he was eight, he decided he wanted to be part of a music program with the other children in his Sunday school class. The part he had been offered was one that required him to sing a verse all on his own—a solo.
My brother carefully explained to him that this would mean singing in front of the audience. There would be no one singing with him. Carl considered this very carefully.After a couple of days, he decided that he would accept the part. He explained to us that he believed he could do it because it was a very special occasion. He said he knew his daddy would help him to be the best singer.
For over a month, he and his father practiced together. Every evening would find them locked away in the music room. My brother played the guitar, and my nephew's small voice came from somewhere deep down inside his little body. He gained confidence, and when the day of the concert arrived, he was certain all would go well. My brother waited backstage, giving Carl double thumbs-up, and he came out to sit with the rest of the family to watch and take photos.
Paragraph 1: When it was finally time for Carl to sing, the music played on, and he froze.
Paragraph 2: Everyone turned to see who was singing, while I knew it was my brother.
【答案】When it was finally time for Dj to sing, the music played on, and he froze. Facing such a large group of audience was a first in his whole life. Lowering his head, he stood in the middle of the stage, not knowing what to do. The pianist started the music again but still nothing came out. The entire audience stared at the little boy and whispered, hoping he would cheer up and act out his part, which made the situation worse. Then the pianist started over again. Then came a beautiful melody from the dead silence, low but clear and powerful.
Everyone turned to see who was singing, while I knew it was my brother. Surprised at the unexpected melody, Dj lifted his head slowly and when he encountered his father's eyes, his eyes began to sparkle as well. After a while, he opened his mouth and began to sing along. With time going by, the little voice from somewhere deep down inside this little boy grew stronger and stronger, echoing and lingering in the hall. All people were immersed in the beautiful melody. When the show was over, thunderous applause exploded. Everyone cheered for this little boy's brilliant performance and his efforts to overcome his fears.
【知识点】文字式记叙文;开放性作文;读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知,讲述了作者的侄子 Carl 患有自闭症,不善于处理社交场合,有时甚至对他来说,在家庭之外大声说话都是一件困难的事情。但他努力地克服自己的恐惧,以至于在他八岁那年,他决定要和 Sunday 学校的其他孩子一起参加圣诞音乐项目。给他的角色要求他独唱一段。演出当天, Carl 因为紧张无法发声,最后在作者哥哥的带动下,顺利完成了演出。段落续写:①由第一段首句内容“当 Carl 终于该唱歌的时候,音乐响起,他愣住了。”可知,第一段可描写 Carl 因为紧张在舞台上无法发声,这时一个低沉的声音唱着这首歌。②由第二段首句内容“每个人都转过身来看看是谁在唱歌,而我知道那是我的哥哥。”可知,第二段可描写 Carl 在作者哥哥的带动下完成演出。写作时注意准确运用时态,上下文意思连贯,符合逻辑关系,尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式,同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
