Kathy Johnston is so in love with chocolate; she lies awake at night thinking
about it. But as chief chocolate officer of Dubai-based chocolatier Mirzam, that’s a
healthy focus to have.
Like many other goods, most of Dubai’s chocolate has traditionally been
imported, but Mirzam develops home-grown alternative. Johnston joined Mirzam
in early 2016 after meeting the company’s founders, who persuaded her to work for
them, rather than chasing her original dream of moving to Switzerland, chocolate
capital of the world.
At first, the company’s plan was to mainly export its offerings to the U.S.
while slowly building a market in the United Arab Emirates (阿联酋). But locals
quickly accept the company’s unique chocolates, which are known for their Emirati
flavors and spices (香料) such as cardamom, almonds and pistachios. That Mirzam
works with local artists for its branding and packaging further strengthens its
hometown reputation. Nearly as soon as Mirzam’s team opened their doors for
tastings, the company sold out all its stock. “We didn’t expect such a strong
response locally,” Johnston says. “We had no time to think about export.”
Born in New Zealand, Johnston moved to Dubai when she was 3 years old.

{#{QQABQYKQogCoQAIAAQgCEwUwCAGQkAGAAIoGRBAAsAAAgRNABAA=}#}
Her love of chocolate goes all the way back to her childhood, when she would
build ladders out of kitchen chairs to get her mother’s hidden chocolates. She
recalls telling her grandfather that her dream was to have her own chocolate
factory.
That dream has come true at Mirzam, where Johnston oversees everything
from sourcing to production, packaging, and sales. But her true passion is coming
up with innovative new sweets, with a focus on integrating traditional Emirati
recipes into the company’s offerings.
Recipes like those have helped Mirzam grow at an amazing pace—it had
doubled its production capacity every year since opening and increased its staff
from one to 75 in five years. Now, Mirzam is still working on “producing
amazing-quality chocolate,” Johnston says.
24．Why didn’t Johnston go to Switzerland
A．She has an affection for chocolate.
B．She has a dream to import chocolate.
C．She was convinced by a chocolate company.
D．She was attracted by the chocolate capital.
25．What makes the company’s chocolates so popular
A．Unique flavors to the local taste. B．Free tastings for new products.
C．Imported sources of high quality. D．Strong responses to the local market.
26．What can we learn from the fifth paragraph
A．Johnston takes pleasure in developing new products.
B．Johnston owed her dream to her grandfather.
C．Johnston works on opening overseas markets.
D．Johnston was brought up in New Zealand.
27．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Mirzam: Chocolate Sales Going Local
B．Johnston: “Sweet Dreams” Coming True
C．Cardamom: Emirati Recipes Catching On
D．Dubai: Home-based Businesses Taking Off
C
With almost all big employers in the United States now using artificial
intelligence (AI) and automation in their hiring processes, the public is considering
some urgent questions: How can you prevent discrimination in hiring when a
machine is keeping the discrimination What kind of methods might help
Some 83% of employers, including 99% of Fortune 500 companies, now use
some form of automated tools as part of their hiring process, said the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) chair Charlotte Burrows at a
hearing on Tuesday. She said everyone needs to speak up on the debate over these
第 5 页 共 12 页
{#{QQABQYKQogCoQAIAAQgCEwUwCAGQkAGAAIoGRBAAsAAAgRNABAA=}#}
technologies. “The risks are simply too high to leave this topic just to the experts. ”
Last year, the EEOC issued some guidance around the use of cutting-edge
hiring tools, noting many of their shortcomings. The agency found that resume (简
历 ) scanners that prioritize keywords and programs that evaluate a candidate’s
facial expressions and speech patterns in video interviews can create discrimination.
Take, for example, ‘a video interview that analyzes an applicant’s speech patterns
to determine their ability to solve problems. A person with a speech problem might
score low and automatically be screened out. The problem will be for the EEOC to
root out discrimination or stop it from taking place.
The EEOC is considering the most appropriate ways to handle the problem.
It’s agreed that inspections are necessary to ensure that the software used by
companies avoids intentional or unintentional discrimination. But who would
conduct those inspections is a more challenging question. Each option presents
risks, Burrows pointed out. A third party may turn a blind eye to its clients, while a
government-led inspection could potentially stop innovation.
In previous remarks, Burrows has noted the great potential that AI
decision-making tools have to improve the lives of Americans, but only when used
properly. “We must work to ensure that these new technologies do not become a
high-tech pathway to discrimination,” she said.
28．What does Burrows suggest people do
A．Follow the experts’ suggestions.
B．Make their own voice heard.
C．Stop using AI in hiring processes.
D．Watch debates about technologies.
29．How might programs in video interviews select employees
A．By scanning keywords.
B．By evaluating resumes.
C．By interpreting speech patterns.
D．By analyzing personalities.
30．What is a possible consequence of third-party inspections
A．Unfair results.
B．High expense.
C．Age discrimination.
D．Innovation interruption.
31．What is Burrows’s attitude to AI decision-making tools
A．Favorable. B．Objective. C. Disapproving. D. Doubtful.

The sperm whale is an astonishing creature. It's longer than a semi-truck,
weighs more than 90, 000 pounds and is the largest member of the toothed whale

family. It's known to dive 6, 500 feet in search of food, and to stay down there for
longer than an hour at a time.
Perhaps most fantastically, the sperm whale's brain weighs as much as 20
pounds-the biggest of any species on Earth. But when it comes to brains, is size all
that matters There's a lot we don't know about the sperm whale's intelligence
because it's difficult to carry out neurological （神经的） testing on such a huge
marine mammal. But some clues point to sperm whales being much smarter than
we give them credit for.
A 2021 study published in Biology Letters, for example, looked back to
19th-century historical logbooks from whalers. Researchers found that sperm
whales were at first easy to catch-but almost immediately, the whales learned how
to evade hunters and whaling success dropped by 60 percent. The study suggests
that the whales passed information to one another through sound waves to avoid
being caught.
Animals that have big brains usually have a few things in common. They
usually live long lives; for example, sperm whales can live for 70 years or longer.
Additionally, they're capable of complex behaviors and they tend to be more social.
Whales may work together to hunt or communicate in a language all their own.
What's more, humans, whales and dolphins all have spindle neurons in their
brains. These nerve cells make us capable of deeper thought, such as reasoning
skills, memory, communication and adaptive thinking. And like humans, whales
have emotional intelligence-meaning they’re capable of empathy, grief and sadness.
Still, in proportion to （成比例）our body size, the human brain is bigger than that
of the sperm whale.
Yet there's still so much we don't know about how smart sperm whales really
are. And just like the whalers of a century ago, we have likely been
underestimating marine mammals, whether large or small, for as long as we've
known of their existence.
32. Why do people know little about the sperm whale's intelligence
A. Sperm whales are much smarter than human beings.
B. Sperm whales usually stay deep down in the ocean
C. Whalers didn't keep enough records of their hunting.
D. Sperm whales big size makes research difficult.
33. What does the underlined word "evade" mean in paragraph-3
A. Avoid. B.Track. C. Locate. D. Trick.
34. What conclusion can we draw from paragraph 5
A. The nerve cells distinguish humans from animals.
B. Sperm whales have smaller brains than humans.
C. Emotional intelligence is unique to whales and humans.
第 7 页 共 12 页
{#{QQABQYKQogCoQAIAAQgCEwUwCAGQkAGAAIoGRBAAsAAAgRNABAA=}#}
D. Spindle neurons make higher intelligence possible.
35. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. Unlock the Mystery of Sea Mammals
B. Sperm Whales Have the Biggest Brain
C. Break the Code of Whale Language
D. Sperm Whales Are Astonishingly Smart

中有两项为多余选项。
Dog people like to point out dogs’ long history as humankind’s best friend
while even the most devoted cat owners may wonder at some point whether their
cat really loves them. Actually, cats do love their owners, according to science.
36
Look out for scenting
Cats use scent to identify their own members, by sharing a group scent profile.
They have scent glands(腺)on their head and around their ears, and often rub their
heads against people and objects that are familiar and comforting. Does your cat
rub its head or side against your legs 37
Look for blinks
Your cat might be secretly signaling their affection in the way they look at you.
38 . But they are more likely to slowly blink at people and cats they have a good
relationship with.
Watch how they greet you
39 A tail held in the upright flagpole position or shaped in a upright
question mark shows a friendly intention. Wrapping their tail around your leg is
another gesture that a cat has ultimate trust in you.
40
Cats are very protective of their personal space and don’t like unwelcome
guests to invade it. If a cat allows you to get close to them, that suggests a close
bond, particularly where the contact is frequent or long lasting. Curling up on your
lap for a nap and licking your hand or face are signs of deep trust.
A. Sense their comfort zone
B. Watch their behavior
C. Look out for these behaviors to prove that your furry friend is truly bonded to
you.
D. The secret of whether your cat feels bonded to you lies in their behaviour.
E. One of the most obvious signs that your beloved pet is fond of you, is the way
that your cat approaches you.
F. The soft sensation you feel against your legs is actually your cat identifying you

as a friend.
G. When cats encounter strange humans or other cats they don’t know, they usually
greet them with an unblinking stare.

In 1968, I was a student at the High School in Beirut. When the time came to

heartbreaking 42 , as I loved being in school and 43 wanted to continue
my education.
I went home and spent the day 44 my father at his tire-repair shop.
Three days later, one of my classmates came over and 45 me that my fee was
fully paid. I returned to my classroom, but I kept 46 who had given me this
golden opportunity. Upon my constant 47 , the headmaster told me that the
secret 48 was my English teacher, Olivia Balian. The whole year I sat in Ms.
Balian’s class, thinking about her 49 action but unable to express my thanks. A
year later, I moved to the U.K and eventually 50 two master’s degrees.
I never forgot the 51 and generosity of Ms. Balian. Almost 40 years later,
I returned to Beirut for the first time to 52 $4.5 million to all 28 high schools
in Lebanon, among which was my former high school. While in Lebanon, I visited
Ms. Balian. She was as 53 to see me as I was to see her. Without her 54
assistance, I probably would have spent the rest of my life 55 tires at my
father’s shop in Beirut.

Miraculous (神奇的) Strength
One chilly, December evening, I was preparing dinner. Suddenly, while setting
the table, I heard a tremendous crash from the second floor. It was the kind of rare,
heart-stopping noise that instantly struck fear into a mother’s heart. Even the dishes
in the kitchen cupboard rattled (发出咔嗒声 )!My seven-year-old son began
screaming for help, and I raced up the stairs without even stopping to put down the
dinner fork I held in my hand.
Entering my son’s room, I found my frightened toddler (学步的儿童)trapped
under a five-drawer wooden dresser (衣橱). It had been torn from its wall anchor. I
could hear crying as I ran toward him. As I leaned over, I saw his small, bloody
face and the terror in his eyes.
I pulled the large dresser off him. At that moment, I felt I could move
mountains. I was fearful to look but quickly tried to assess how badly he was hurt.
Begging him to stay still, I dialed 911 and began to pray. I prayed for the mercy
that spared him and the healing he would need, given that I wasn’t sure of the
extent of his injuries. In those minutes before the ambulance arrived, although I
was in a chaotic situation with both my sons in tears, an inner calm kept me
focused and controlled. I felt a strong presence keeping me steady.
After the ambulance workers conducted a brief assessment, it was agreed that
he should have a more extensive examination since this was a possible chest or
head injury. A moment of pause forced me to process what had just happened. I
recalled dashing up the stairs with a sense of fear as to what 1 would find. In only a
few seconds, a lifetime of tender memories replayed in my mind. I had asked
myself, “Is he still breathing ” “Are bones broken ” One moment. I was simply
preparing dinner; the next. I was tearfully praying for my son’s life.

Learning English Beyond the Classroom
There are many things we can do to learn English well. A recent survey
suggests that the majority of students being interviewed, about 59%, tend to
learn English by listening to English songs.
In addition, 23% of the students choose to watch English movies as a way
of learning. Reading English books and visiting English learning sites prove to
be the less popular ways, accounting for 10% and 8% respectively.
Overall, the results are quite interesting, indicating that language learning
can be integrated with personal hobbies and entertainment. In the future, I
think our school could provide some activities such as book clubs or English
corners to further inspire students’ interest in learning English.
第二小节续写范文:
On the way to the emergency room, I tried to keep him calm. His nose was still
bleeding, and he was complaining about the bump on the back of his head. I
continued to pray for his recovery and the miracle that he survived the impact of that
heavy dresser. After testing, it was determined that he could return home. That’s a
load off my mind and I was finally relieved! The doctor said, “Wow, it was a
miracle!”I responded tearfully, “It sure was. ”
Back at the house, I found the miraculous strength that protected my son’s life a
small, hand-carved elephant. Earlier that year, we bought it as a special souvenir
when we went on a family trip to Africa. It seemed that the elephant had undertaken
the main impact of the dresser when it crashed. The carved animal was only inches
wide, but those few precious inches gave my son the space he needed to avoid
terrible injury. I will be grateful all my life for the miraculous strength that sent the

M: Good morning, class. Now I'll tell you something about the history of English.
Old English is very difficult to understand. Only a few experts can read it. Several
written works from the Old English period have remained. Perhaps the most famous
is called Beowulf. The name of the person who wrote it is not known. In 1066,
William took control of England. The language used by the new rulers slowly
changed the way English was spoken 800 years ago. English became what language
experts call Middle English. which was used between about 1150 AD and 1500 AD.
Middle English sounds like Modern English. Many written works from this period
have been passed down. Perhaps the most famous was written by Goffrey Chaucer
who lived in London and died there jin the 1400s. Chaucer's most famous work is
The Canterbury Tales, written more than 600 years ago.The history of the English
language continues as Middle English becomes Modem English. Ill talk about
Modem English after a short break.

当地风味，受到当地人的欢迎。而 Kathy Johnston也十分享受工作中新口味研
发所带来的快乐。
24．细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“Johnston joined Mirzam in early 2016 after

chasing her original dream of moving to Switzerland, chocolate capital of the
world.(约翰斯顿在 2016年初与Mirzam的创始人见面后加入了该公司，他说
服她为他工作，而不是追逐她最初的梦想，搬到世界巧克力之都瑞士。)”可

而放弃了去瑞士的想法。故选 C项。
25．细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“But locals quickly accept the company’s
unique chocolates, which are known for their Emirati flavors and spices such as
cardamom, almonds and pistachios.(但当地人很快就接受了该公司独特的巧克
力，这种巧克力以阿联酋风味和小豆蔻、杏仁和开心果等香料而闻名。)”可

旨。故选 B项。
C
答案：28．B 29．C 30．A 31．B
导语：这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是由于美国几乎所有的大雇主都在招聘
过程中使用人工智能和自动化，公众正在考虑一些紧迫的问题：当机器保持歧
视时，如何防止招聘时的歧视以及什么方法会有所帮助。
28．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“She said everyone needs to speak up on the
debate over these technologies. “The risks are simply too high to leave this topic
just to the experts.”(她说，每个人都需要就有关这些技术的辩论进行公开发
言。“风险实在是太高了，不能把这个问题只留给专家们。”)”可知 Burrows
建议人们就有关这些技术的辩论进行公开发言，即 Burrows建议人们让人听
到他们自己的声音。故选 B项。
29．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The agency found that resume (简历) scanners
that prioritize keywords and programs that evaluate a candidate ’ s facial
expressions and speech patterns in video interviews can create discrimination.
Take, for example, ‘ a video interview that analyzes an applicant’ s speech
patterns to determine their ability to solve problems. (该机构发现，在视频面试
中，优先考虑关键词和程序的简历扫描仪可能会造成歧视。例如，“一个视

30．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“It’s agreed that inspections are necessary to
ensure that the software used by companies avoids intentional or unintentional
discrimination. But who would conduct those inspections is a more challenging
question. Each option presents risks, Burrows pointed out. A third party may turn
a blind eye to its clients, while a government-led inspection could potentially stop
innovation.(大家一致认为有必要进行检查，以确保公司使用的软件能够避免
故意或无意的歧视。但谁来进行这些检查则是一个更具挑战性的问题。
Burrows指出，每一种选择都存在风险。第三方可能会对其客户视而不见，
而政府主导的检查也可能会阻止创新。)”可知第三方会对客户视而不见，所
以可以推测第三方的检查结果可能会带来不公平的结果。故选 A项。
31．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In previous remarks, Burrows has noted the
great potential that AI decision-making tools have to improve the lives of
Americans, but only when used properly. “We must work to ensure that these

said.(在之前的讲话中，Burrows指出，决策工具使用恰当的话具有改善美国
人生活的巨大潜力。她说：“我们必须努力确保这些新技术不会成为导致歧

{#{QQABQYKQogCoQAIAAQgCEwUwCAGQkAGAAIoGRBAAsAAAgRNABAA=}#}
视的高科技途径。”)”可知 Burrows认为人工智能决策工具如果使用恰当的
话具有可以改善美国人生活的潜力，所以 Burrows对于人工智能决策工具的
态度是客观的。故选 B项。
D
答案：32. D 33. A 34. D 35. D
导语：这是一篇说明文，讲述了抹香鲸的智力水平，纺锤体神经元使它们能够
进行深层次的思考。
32. D.细节理解题。根据第二段第三句可知，关于抹香鲸的智力，我们有很多不
知道的地方，因为很难对如此巨大的海洋哺乳动物进行神经测试。故选 D。
33.A。词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句语境可知，研究人员发现，抹香鲸一开
始很容易被捕获。画线词后讲的是捕鲸成功率下降了 60％。故可推知，此
处应该说的是抹香鲸学会了躲避猎人，因此捕鲸成功率下降。avoid 意为“躲
避”，最符合此处语境。故选 A。
34. D。推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知，人类、鲸鱼和海豚的大脑中都有纺
锤体神经元。这些神经细胞使我们能够进行更深层次的思考，如推理技能、
记忆、沟通和适应性思维。和人类一样，鲸鱼也有情商，这意味着它们具有
共情能力，可以感受到悲痛和伤心。由此可推知，纺锤体神经元使更高的智
商成为可能。故选 D。
35.D。主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是第二段最后一句可知，一些线索表明，抹
香鲸比我们认为的要聪明得多。文章接下来介绍了抹香鲸的聪明之处。选项
A意为“抹香鲸出人意料地聪明”，最适合概括全文主旨。故选 D。
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分)
答案： 36-40 DFGEA
导语：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了猫是否觉得和你有关系的秘密在于它们
的行为。
36． 根 据 空 格 前 一 句 “Dog people like to point out dogs’ long history as
humankind’s best friend while even the most devoted cat owners may wonder at
some point whether their cat really loves them(爱狗人士喜欢指出狗是人类历史
上最好的朋友，而即使是最忠实的猫主人也会在某个时候怀疑他们的猫是否
真的爱他们)”可推知，空格处应该讲猫也很爱自己的主人。所以 C项“Actually,
cats do love their owners, according to science(事实上，根据科学，猫确实爱它
们的主人)”承接上文。故选 D。
37．根据空格前一句“Does your cat rub its head or side against your legs(你的猫会
用头或侧面蹭你的腿吗)”可推知，空格处应该讲述猫来蹭腿的原因。所以 E
项“The soft sensation you feel against your legs is actually your cat identifying
you as a friend(你腿上的柔软感觉实际上是你的猫把你当成了朋友)”解释其
第 7 页 共 11 页
{#{QQABQYKQogCoQAIAAQgCEwUwCAGQkAGAAIoGRBAAsAAAgRNABAA=}#}
原因。故选 F。
38．根据空格前一句“Your cat might be secretly signalling their affection in the way
they look at you(你的猫可能会用它们看你的方式偷偷地表达它们的爱意)”以
及后一句“But they are more likely to slowly blink at people and cats they have a
good relationship with (但它们更有可能对与自己关系良好的人和猫慢慢眨眼)”
可推知，空格处应该讲述猫对于陌生人并不会眨眼。所以 G 项“When cats
encounter strange humans or other cats they don’t know, they usually greet them
with an unblinking stare(当猫遇到陌生的人或其他它们不认识的猫时，它们通
常会眨都不眨地盯着他们)”承上启下。故选 G。
39．根据本文小标题“Watch how they greet you(观察他们如何问候你)”可推知，
本段主要介绍了猫是如何对你问候你的。所以 F 项“One of the most obvious
signs that your beloved pet is fond of you, is the way that your cat approaches
you(你心爱的宠物喜欢你的一个最明显的迹象就是你的猫接近你的方式)”引
出下文。故选 E。
40．根据下文 “Cats are very protective of their personal space and don’t like
unwelcome guests to invade it. (猫非常保护自己的私人空间，不喜欢不受欢迎
的客人入侵)”可知，本段主要介绍了猫也有自己的舒适区。所以 B项“Sense
their comfort zone(感受他们的舒适区)”适合作本段小标题。故选 A。

Learning English Beyond the Classroom
There are many things we can do to learn English well. A recent survey
suggests that the majority of students being interviewed, about 65%, tend to
learn English by listening to English songs.
In addition, 50% of the students choose to watch English movies as a way
of learning. Reading English books and visiting English learning sites prove to
be the less popular ways, accounting for 18% and 12% respectively.
Overall, the results are quite interesting, indicating that language learning
can be integrated with personal hobbies and entertainment. In the future, I

corners to further inspire students’ interest in learning English.
第二节（满分 25分）
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。
答案：
On the way to the emergency room, I tried to keep him calm. His nose was still
bleeding， and he was complaining about the bump on the back of his head. I
continued to pray for his recovery and the miracle that he survived the impact of that
heavy dresser. After testing, it was determined that he could return home. That’s a
load off my mind and I was finally relieved! The doctor said，“Wow， it was a
miracle!”I responded tearfully, “It sure was. ”
Back at the house, I found the miraculous strength that protected my son’s life a
small, hand-carved elephant. Earlier that year, we bought it as a special souvenir
when we went on a family trip to Africa. It seemed that the elephant had undertaken
the main impact of the dresser when it crashed. The carved animal was only inches
wide, but those few precious inches gave my son the space he needed to avoid
terrible injury. I will be grateful all my life for the miraculous strength that sent the
elephant to be my son’s life protector.

受伤很重，于是打了 911，后来救护车来了进行了简短的评估，因此作者非常
担心，泪流满面的为儿子祈祷着。
详解：1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“在去急诊室的路上，我试着让他保持冷静。”可知，
第一段可描写作者担心的过程以及确诊完没事的如释重负。
②由第二段首句内容“回到家里，我发现了保护我儿子生命的神奇力量一只
手工雕刻的小象。”可知，第二段可描写作者描述这个小象的背景及感恩。
2.续写线索：我继续祈祷——检查没问题——如释重负——手工雕刻的小
象保护儿子——感悟
