I had spent the 22 years following my childhood dream—becoming a professor of marine biology. However, in the graduate school I saw how applying for research funding is a constant source of worry for many professors, I decided I did not want to develop a career in research after all.
I began to attend career panels (咨询组), from which I expected to get some solid proposals. I walked into the room with other excited graduate students hopefully, Well-meaning as the panelists were, they fell silent when I brought up my puzzle. I felt totally lost.
I went to my professor for help eventually, After listening to my complaint , my professor told me that instead of focusing on finding a dream job, I should take account of what I am good at and what makes me happy at least 80% of the time. The practical advice surprised me at first, but it ended up being exactly what I needed to hear.
But I discovered that finding overlap (重叠) between what I enjoy and what I’m good at was not easy. I’m good at teaching but I don’t like repeating the same content every year.
To test the waters, I started a blog about the history of scientific discoveries. I found that I loved the freedom to choose what to write about, and I enjoyed the challenge. After 3 years of writing, I was offered a position as a science writer. It’s nothing like my childhood dream. But I am happy—more than 80% of the time.
24. Why did the author (作者) decide not to develop a career in research after all
A. Because it was not his dream.
B. Because he wanted to become a professor of marine biology.
C. Because it’s worrying to apply for research funding.
D. Because he got a clear picture of his future.
25. What can we learn from paragraph 2
A. I attended career panels to get reliable suggestions.
B. The panelists were mean.
C. The graduate students helped me a lot.
D. I was not puzzled at all.
26. Which of the following best describe the author
A. Goal-driven and adaptable. B. Humorous and outgoing,
C. Strict and cold. D. Friendly and curious.
27. What does the author intend to tell us
A. Behind every successful man there’s a lot of unsuccessful years.
B. Find what is suitable for you and enjoy it.
C. Opportunity knocks but once.
D. If you can’t handle failure, then you can’t handle success.
C
Tourism can be both good and bad. Yes, it brings in money for the local economy and creates jobs for locals, but it may also bring some problems.
One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited a destination. Tourists have used paint, rocks, or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt, the Colosseum in Rome, Stonehenge in the UK, memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma, and many, many other places. Thousands of tourist site s are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”. I have three words for people like this: please stop it. If you want to leave a mark on the world, do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love. Pass kindness along to future generations, not destruction.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission. For example Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas, taking pictures of students, and disturbing their studies. Another example is Sanlitun, a neighbourhood in Beijing, China. Some tourists love to party there late into the night, making it difficult for locals to sleep. I have three words for tourists like this please be considerate. Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.
The number of problems from tourists is endless: walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by, crossing roads without thinking of local traffic laws, and many more. The only way to solve the problem of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one! Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible, Remember, whenever you step outside your country’s borders, you are representing your country to the rest of the world.
28. What does the underlined word “destruction” mean in the second paragraph
A. Breaking. B. Creation. C. Construction. D. Writing.
29. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. People travel to different places of the world.
B. Tourists love to party there late into the night.
C. Tourists take pictures of local people without asking for their permission.
D. Tourists disturb the local people and life.
30. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To explain the problem. B. To suggest a proper solution to the problem.
C. To introduce the importance of traveling. D. To call on readers to love their countries.
31. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Tourism Can Be Both Good and Bad. B. Pass Kindness Along to Future Generations.
C. Tourists Are Troublemakers. D. Be a Good Tourist.
D
Does using an eco-friendly paper straw (吸管) give you a good feeling because you’re doing something for the environment “Straws made from plant-based materials, such as paper and bamboo, are often advertised as being more sustainable and eco-friendly than those made from plastic,” says researcher Dr. Thimo Groffen, an environmental scientist at the University of Antwerp. “However, the presence of PFAS in these straws means that could be discredited.”
PFAS chemicals infamous for their longevity and potential harm, can adversely affect humans, wildlife and the environment. They biodegrade (生物降解) very slowly over time and can persist over thousands of years in the environment, a property that has led to them being known as “forever chemicals”. They are linked to various health issues, including thyroid disease, liver damage, kidney cancer and so on. Furthermore, these chemicals are used in everyday items, such as outdoor clothing and non-stick pans, to make them water and heat-resistant.
For a more in-depth analysis, the research team purchased 39 different brands of drinking straws made from five materials — paper, bamboo, glass, stainless steel and plastic, and then conducted two rounds of testing for PFAS. They found that most brands (69%) contained PFAS, with 18 different PFAS detected in total. In paper straws, PFAS was detected in 90% of the brands tested. PFAS was also detected in 80% of brands of bamboo straws, 75% of plastic straw brands and 40% of glass straw brands. They were not detected in any of the five types of steel straws tested.
“The presence of PFAS in paper and bamboo straws shows they are not necessarily biodegradable,” says Dr. Groffen. “We did not detect any PFAS in stainless steel straws, so I would advise consumers to use this type of straw — or just avoid using straws.”
The PFAS concentrations (浓度) were low and, considering that most people only use straws occasionally, pose a limited risk to human health. However, PFAS can remain in the body for many years and concentrations can build up over time. “Small amounts of PFAS, while not harmful in themselves, can add to the chemical load already present in the body,” Dr. Groffen concludes.
32. What does the underlined word “discredited” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Plain. B. Relevant.
C. Doubtful. D. Forceful.
33. Why are PFAS chemicals known as “forever chemicals”
A. They are resistant to water and heat.
B. They take a long time to break down.
C. They exist widely in daily necessities.
D. They may cause various common diseases.
34. What can we know from the test for PFAS
A. PFAS was found in all five types of straws.
B. Paper straws were most likely to contain PFAS.
C. Stainless steel straws are harmless to human health.
D. Glass straws were the most environmentally friendly straws.
35. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. To stress the potential risks of PFAS.
B. To show approaches to using straws safely.
C. To present the advantages of stainless steel straws.
D. To appeal to consumers to avoid using straws in daily life.

When I was 13, my only purpose was to become the star on our football team. That meant beating out Miller King, who was the best player at our school.
Football season started in September and I’ve been working out hard all summer. I carried my football everywhere for practice.
Just before September, Miller was hit by a car and lost his right arm, I went to see him after he came back from hospital. He looked very weak, but he didn’t cry.
That season, I broke all of Miller’s records while he watched the home games from the bench. We went 10-1 and I was named most valuable player, but I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame for Miller’s accident.
One afternoon, I was crossing the field to go home and saw Miller got stuck when he was going over a fence — which wasn’t hard to climb if you had both arms.

【原文】A new report on 3,375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities found that 38 percent of them often use the Internet. While most of them use the Internet to get useful information and help with their studies, some don’t use it in a good way. In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behaviour started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools. The book uses real examples to teach all students about good ways of using the Internet. Some students also make online friends. But if you want to meet someone, make sure your parents know that. Teachers and parents all think the book is of great help. A teacher said the book would be a guide for teens. She believed it would keep students away from bad sites. “Many students are using the Internet without guidance from their parents,” She said. “The book will teach students how to be a good person in the online world.”

I had spent the 22 years following my childhood dream—becoming a professor of marine biology. However, in the graduate school I saw how applying for research funding is a constant source of worry for many professors, I decided I did not want to develop a career in research after all.
I began to attend career panels (咨询组), from which I expected to get some solid proposals. I walked into the room with other excited graduate students hopefully, Well-meaning as the panelists were, they fell silent when I brought up my puzzle. I felt totally lost.
I went to my professor for help eventually, After listening to my complaint , my professor told me that instead of focusing on finding a dream job, I should take account of what I am good at and what makes me happy at least 80% of the time. The practical advice surprised me at first, but it ended up being exactly what I needed to hear.
But I discovered that finding overlap (重叠) between what I enjoy and what I’m good at was not easy. I’m good at teaching but I don’t like repeating the same content every year.
To test the waters, I started a blog about the history of scientific discoveries. I found that I loved the freedom to choose what to write about, and I enjoyed the challenge. After 3 years of writing, I was offered a position as a science writer. It’s nothing like my childhood dream. But I am happy—more than 80% of the time.
24. Why did the author (作者) decide not to develop a career in research after all
A. Because it was not his dream.
B. Because he wanted to become a professor of marine biology.
C. Because it’s worrying to apply for research funding.
D. Because he got a clear picture of his future.
25. What can we learn from paragraph 2
A. I attended career panels to get reliable suggestions.
B. The panelists were mean.
C. The graduate students helped me a lot.
D. I was not puzzled at all.
26. Which of the following best describe the author
A. Goal-driven and adaptable. B. Humorous and outgoing,
C. Strict and cold. D. Friendly and curious.
27. What does the author intend to tell us
A. Behind every successful man there’s a lot of unsuccessful years.

C. Opportunity knocks but once.
D. If you can’t handle failure, then you can’t handle success.

Tourism can be both good and bad. Yes, it brings in money for the local economy and creates jobs for locals, but it may also bring some problems.
One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited a destination. Tourists have used paint, rocks, or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt, the Colosseum in Rome, Stonehenge in the UK, memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma, and many, many other places. Thousands of tourist site s are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”. I have three words for people like this: please stop it. If you want to leave a mark on the world, do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love. Pass kindness along to future generations, not destruction.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission. For example, Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas, taking pictures of students, and disturbing their studies. Another example is Sanlitun, a neighbourhood in Beijing, China. Some tourists love to party there late into the night, making it difficult for locals to sleep. I have three words for tourists like this please be considerate. Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.
The number of problems from tourists is endless: walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by, crossing roads without thinking of local traffic laws, and many more. The only way to solve the problem of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one! Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible, Remember, whenever you step outside your country’s borders, you are representing your country to the rest of the world.
28. What does the underlined word “destruction” mean in the second paragraph
A. Breaking. B. Creation. C. Construction. D. Writing.
29. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. People travel to different places of the world.
B. Tourists love to party there late into the night.
C. Tourists take pictures of local people without asking for their permission.
D. Tourists disturb the local people and life.
30 What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To explain the problem. B. To suggest a proper solution to the problem.
C. To introduce the importance of traveling. D. To call on readers to love their countries.
31. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Tourism Can Be Both Good and Bad. B. Pass Kindness Along to Future Generations.
C. Tourists Are Troublemakers. D. Be a Good Tourist.
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. D
【解析】

词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“If you want to leave a mark on the world, do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love.(如果你想在世界上留下印记，那就用善良和爱去改变别人的生活)”以及“Pass kindness along to future generations, not”可知，作者指出要用善良和爱去改变别人的生活，把善良传给下一代，而不是破坏。故划线词意思是“破坏”。故选A。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission. For example, Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas, taking pictures of students, and disturbing their studies. Another example is Sanlitun, a neighbourhood in Beijing, China. Some tourists love to party there late into the night, making it difficult for locals to sleep. I have three words for tourists like this please be considerate. Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.(一些地方的另一个大问题是游客扰乱了当地人民和生活。一些游客在没有征得当地人同意的情况下四处游荡，给当地人拍照。例如，泰国清迈大学和韩国延世大学有大量游客参观他们的校园，穿过他们的图书馆和其他公共区域，给学生拍照，干扰他们的学习。另一个例子是中国北京的三里屯。一些游客喜欢在那里聚会到深夜，这让当地人难以入睡。对于这样的游客，我想说三个字:请体谅。以一种不打扰他人的方式享受乐趣)”可知，第三段的主要内容是游客扰乱了当地人的生活。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The number of problems from tourists is endless: walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by, crossing roads without thinking of local traffic laws, and many more.

Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible, Remember, whenever you step outside your country’s borders, you are representing your country to the rest of the world.(游客带来的问题数不胜数：一大群人走路时不考虑其他人的需要，过马路时不考虑当地的交通法规，等等。解决这个问题的唯一方法就是确保你不是一个可怕的游客！尽可能做最好、最善良、最有礼貌的游客。记住，无论何时你走出自己国家的边界，你都在向世界其他地方代表你的国家)”可知，最后一段的目的是对问题提出适当的解决方案。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Be the best, kindest, most polite tourist possible, Remember, whenever you step outside your country’s borders, you are representing your country to the rest of the world.(尽可能做最好、最善良、最有礼貌的游客。记住，无论何时你走出自己国家的边界，你都在向世界其他地方代表你的国家)”结合文章指出了游客在景区的一些不文明的行为，并呼吁我们要杜绝这些行为，尽可能成为最好、最善良、最有礼貌的游客。可知，D选项“做一个好游客”最符合文章标题。故选D。

Does using an eco-friendly paper straw (吸管) give you a good feeling because you’re doing something for the environment “Straws made from plant-based materials, such as paper and bamboo, are often advertised as being more sustainable and eco-friendly than those made from plastic,” says researcher Dr. Thimo Groffen, an environmental scientist at the University of Antwerp. “However, the presence of PFAS in these straws means that could be discredited.”
PFAS chemicals, infamous for their longevity and potential harm, can adversely affect humans, wildlife and the environment. They biodegrade (生物降解) very slowly over time and can persist over thousands of years in the environment, a property that has led to them being known as “forever chemicals”. They are linked to various health issues, including thyroid disease, liver damage, kidney cancer and so on. Furthermore, these chemicals are used in everyday items, such as outdoor clothing and non-stick pans, to make them water and heat-resistant.
For a more in-depth analysis, the research team purchased 39 different brands of drinking straws made from five materials — paper, bamboo, glass, stainless steel and plastic, and then conducted two rounds of testing for PFAS. They found that most brands (69%) contained PFAS, with 18 different PFAS detected in total. In paper straws, PFAS was detected in 90% of the brands tested. PFAS was also detected in 80% of brands of bamboo straws, 75% of plastic straw brands and 40% of glass straw brands. They were not detected in any of the five types of steel straws tested.
“The presence of PFAS in paper and bamboo straws shows they are not necessarily biodegradable,” says Dr. Groffen. “We did not detect any PFAS in stainless steel straws, so I would advise consumers to use this type of straw — or just avoid using straws.”
The PFAS concentrations (浓度) were low and, considering that most people only use straws occasionally, pose a limited risk to human health. However, PFAS can remain in the body for many years and concentrations can build up over time. “Small amounts of PFAS, while not harmful in themselves, can add to the chemical load already present in the body,” Dr. Groffen concludes.
32. What does the underlined word “discredited” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Plain. B. Relevant.
C. Doubtful. D. Forceful.
33. Why are PFAS chemicals known as “forever chemicals”
A. They are resistant to water and heat.
B. They take a long time to break down.
C. They exist widely in daily necessities.
D. They may cause various common diseases.
34. What can we know from the test for PFAS
A. PFAS was found in all five types of straws.
B. Paper straws were most likely to contain PFAS.
C. Stainless steel straws are harmless to human health.
D. Glass straws were the most environmentally friendly straws.
35. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. To stress the potential risks of PFAS.
B. To show approaches to using straws safely.
C. To present the advantages of stainless steel straws.
D. To appeal to consumers to avoid using straws in daily life.
【答案】32 C 33. B 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了安特卫普大学的环境科学家、研究员蒂莫·格罗芬博士表示，用纸和竹子等植物材料制成的吸管，通常被宣传为比塑料制成的吸管更可持续、更环保。然而，这些吸管中PFAS的存在意味着这可能是不可信的。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词句中“However, the presence of PFAS in these straws means…”（然而，这些吸管中PFAS的存在意味着……）以及第二段中“PFAS chemicals, infamous for their longevity and potential harm, can adversely affect humans, wildlife and the environment.”（PFAS化学物质因其寿命长和潜在危害而臭名昭著，会对人类、野生动物和环境产生不利影响。）可知，此处应为这些吸管中PFAS的存在意味着这可能是不可信的。故可猜测划线单词discredited为“不可信”的意思，结合选项C项Doubtful“怀疑的”意思一致。故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They biodegrade (生物降解) very slowly over time and can persist over thousands of years in the environment, a property that has led to them being known as “forever chemicals”.”（随着时间的推移，它们的生物降解非常缓慢，可以在环境中存在数千年，这一特性使它们被称为“永远的化学物质”。）可知，PFAS化学物质被称为“永远的化学物质”是因为它们需要很长时间才能降解。故选B项。
34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“They found that most brands (69%) contained PFAS, with 18 different PFAS detected in total. In paper straws, PFAS was detected in 90% of the brands tested. PFAS was also detected in 80% of brands of bamboo straws, 75% of plastic straw brands and 40% of glass straw brands.”（他们发现大多数品牌(69%)含有PFAS，总共检测到18种不同的PFAS。在纸质吸管中，90%的品牌检测到PFAS。在80%的竹吸管、75%的塑料吸管和40%的玻璃吸管中也检测到PFAS。）可知，从PFAS测试中我们能知道纸吸管最可能含有PFAS。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The PFAS concentrations (浓度) were low and, considering that most people only use straws occasionally, pose a limited risk to human health. However, PFAS can remain in the body for many years and concentrations can build up over time. “Small amounts of PFAS, while not harmful in themselves, can add to the chemical load already present in the body,” Dr. Groffen concludes.”（PFAS浓度较低，考虑到大多数人只是偶尔使用吸管，对人体健康构成的风险有限。然而，PFAS可以在体内停留多年，浓度会随着时间的推移而增加。“少量的PFAS虽然本身无害，但会增加体内已经存在的化学负荷，”Groffen博士总结道。）可推知，作者在最后一段想强调PFAS的潜在风险。故选A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。
When I was 13, my only purpose was to become the star on our football team. That meant beating out Miller King, who was the best player at our school.
Football season started in September and I’ve been working out hard all summer. I carried my football everywhere for practice.
Just before September, Miller was hit by a car and lost his right arm, I went to see him after he came back from hospital. He looked very weak, but he didn’t cry.
That season, I broke all of Miller’s records while he watched the home games from the bench. We went 10-1 and I was named most valuable player, but I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame for Miller’s accident.
One afternoon, I was crossing the field to go home and saw Miller got stuck when he was going over a fence — which wasn’t hard to climb if you had both arms.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
I was standing not far from him.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
His words free d me from my bad dreams.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 I was standing not far from him. I’m sure I was the last person in the world he wanted to accept help from. But even that challenge he accepted. I helped him move slowly over the fence. When we were finally safe on the other side, he said to me in a gentle voice, “You know, I didn’t tell you this during the season, but you did well. Thank you for filling in for me. You’re a great football player.”
His words freed me from my bad dreams. I thought to myself, it was people like him who can become an excellent football player. Even without an arm, he was more of a leader. Damaged but not defeated, he was still ahead of me. I was right to have admired him. From that day on, I grew bigger and a little more real. As the months passed, we not only established deep and lasting friendship but also made great progress in our studies.
