Four Inventions That Changed the World
The course of human evolution has been filled with inventions. The following inventions changed the world in one way or another.
Match
Many of us wonder what life was like before matches. We can thank a British pharmacist and his dirty mixing stick. In 1820s, John Walker noticed a dried lump on the end of a stick while he was stirring a mix of chemicals. When he tried to scrape (刮掉) it off, flames appeared. The initial matches were made of cardboard but soon the matches came in a box equipped with a piece of sandpaper for striking.
Penicillin
Penicillin was discovered in 1928 when a young bacteriologist, Alexander Fleming, was tidying up his lab. After having been on vacation, he returned to work to find that a dish of Staphylococcus bacteria had been left uncovered, and he noticed that mould (霉菌) on the culture had killed many of the bacteria. His further research found that it could kill other bacteria.
Microwave Oven
Of all the sci-fi kitchen appliances, the microwave oven really relieves the load on housewives. It was discovered in the 1940s. When Percy Spencer, an engineer, was working on a magnetron (磁控管), he noticed that a chocolate bar in his pocket had started to melt due to the microwaves. Spencer found that indeed, when food was placed in the box with the microwave energy, it cooked quickly.
Plastic
The first plastic was invented in 1907 by Leo Hendrik Baekeland. His initial quest was to invent a ready replacement for shellac (虫胶), an expensive product got from lac beetles. Baekeland combined formaldehyde (甲醛) with a waste product of coal, and heated the mixture. Rather than a shellac-like material, he created a substance that didn’t melt under heat and stress.
1. Who invented matches
A. John Walker. B. Alexander Fleming.
C. Percy Spencer. D. Leo Hendrik Baekeland.
2. What had Leo Hendrik Baekeland originally intended to invent
A. A shellac-like material. B. A product from lac beetles.
C. A replacement for shellac. D. A waste product of coal.
3. What do the four inventions have in common
A. They were the results of joint efforts. B. They were the accidental discoveries.
C. They were the fruits of years of research. D. They were unaccepted when coming out.
B
Opening the pages of Liuba Draws Beijing takes you on a fascinating visual journey through the heart of China’s busy capital city. Within its lively watercolors, traditional hutong, the grand Summer Palace, and the contemporary charm of Beijing’s Sanlitun and 798Art District all come alive through the artistic lens of Liuba Vladimirova, more famously known as Liuba Draws.
Vladimirova’s journey from the icy Siberian city of Irkutsk to the vital Beijing started during her college years, when she commenced with an academic exchange program connecting her Russian university with Liaoning University in Shenyang, in Northeast China’s Liaoning Province. It was during this transformative period that she first set foot in Beijing. Since then, her affection for the city has been undeniable.
Vladimirova’s path as an artist was far from linear (直线的). Since childhood Vladimirova has developed a love for drawing and painting. However, she pursued a different academic and professional route, studying Chinese and international trade in college and later working in trade relations between Russia and China, none of which was directly connected to the world of art. Yet, Vladimirova’s inner artist remained alive.
In 2015, Vladimirova began crafting a series of illustrations centered around Beijing, properly named “The Beijing Calendar”. What attracts Vladimirova most is Beijing’s historic hutong. These narrow alleyways, rich in history and culture, serve as a wellspring (源泉) of inspiration for her artistry.
Vladimirova’s ability to catch these hidden small differences likely comes from her unique perspective as an “outsider”—someone who didn’t grow up in Beijing. This fresh perspective allowed her to arrive in the city with fresh eyes and an eager heart, ready to embrace a new culture.
4. What do the underlined words “commenced with” mean in paragraph 2
A. Improved. B. Began. C. Resisted. D. Assessed.
5. What do we know about Vladimirova from paragraph 3
A. She gave up her dream. B. She won many art prizes several years ago.
C. She was hardworking over her childhood. D. She delayed her artistic career.
6. Why does the author mention hutong
A. To praise Beijing’s architecture. B. To show the inspiration of Vladimirova’s art making.
C. To state the main contents of an art book. D. To advise tourists to visit Beijing.
7. Which statement best summarizes Vladimirova’s success
A. Curiosity works wonders. B. Hard work pays off in time.
C. The world is diverse and lively. D. Painting has no national boundaries.
C
Nasugraq Rainey Hopson is an author and illustrator (插图画家). She has written short stories and made art inspired by her I upiaq culture. The I upiaq people are native to Alaska, the US. Hopson’s first and only novel to date, Eagle Drums, is set in I upiaq tales about a great festival. The great festival is still celebrated locally today.
In the book, the hero Pina struggles with the suffering from losing his brothers, who have traveled to a nearby mountain and never returned. Pina decides to go to the same mountain, trying to uncover the facts, where he happens to meet Savik, who gives Pina a choice: To follow him or to meet the same fortune as his brothers. Pina’s decision takes himself on a journey that exposes himself to the dances and songs that are part of I upiaq culture. Eagle Drums describes aspects of I upiaq life as a world that doesn’t exist much in the current world, such as walking in the tundra (苔原) and imagining mythological beings and talking animals everywhere. It will definitely inspire the teen magical thinking in its beauty.
Hopson wants to write more I upiaq stories. “We have a lot of oral history and stories in our culture,” she says. Hopson explains that I upiaq people use their voices, facial expressions and movements to express emotions as they tell a story. “But you can’t do that when you’re writing,” she says. “It’s very uncomfortable, in a way, to have to write down something that is a performance.” But she’s up for the challenge.
Eagle Drums is for anyone who is looking for a vivid adventure. Hopson says that when I upiaq kids read her work, they get excited about seeing something from their own area and their own culture. Other kids who read her work tell Hopson they’re excited about experiencing a story they’ve never experienced before in a new place. “You know, that’s the best part, hearing feedbacks,” she says.
8. What do we know about Eagle Drums
A. It is based on the author’s culture. B. It is about a world-famous festival.
C. It is one of the author’s best novels. D. It is rich in illustrations on each page.
9. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Eagle Drums
A. Its intention. B. Its background.
C. Its content. D. Its comment.
10. Why does Hopson think it uncomfortable to write I upiaq stories
A. The I upiaq people are poor performers
B. The I upiaq culture is too rich for words.
C. The I upiaq language is difficult to catch on.
D. The I upiaq stories are little known by people.
11. What is the text
A. A news report. B. A childhood story.
C. A diary entry. D. A book review.
D
Language function and the psychosocial well-being of patients and their families can be promoted with singing-based rehabilitation (康复) Group intervention provides opportunities for peer support while being simultaneously cost-effective.
Approximately 40% of stroke (中风) survivors experience aphasia (失语症). a difficulty to understand or produce spoken or written language caused by a cerebrovascular (脑血管的) accident. In half of these cases, the language damage still continues one-year post-stroke. Aphasia has wide-ranging effects on the ability to function and quality of life of stroke survivors and easily leads to social loneliness.
According to a recent study conducted at the University of Helsinki, singing-based group rehabilitation can support communication and speech production of patients and increase social activity even at the long-lasting stage of stroke. The hard work experienced among the family caregivers participating in the study also decreased remarkably. “Our study is the first where caregivers participated in rehabilitation and their psychological well-being was evaluated.” says Postdoctoral Researcher Sini-Tuuli Siponkoski.
Previous research has established that the ability to sing can be left even in severe aphasia. “Our study used a wide variety of singing elements, such as singing by a group of singers, melodic intonation treatment and tablet-assisted singing training.” clarifies Doctoral Researcher Anni Pitkǎniemi.
In melodic intonation therapy, speech production is practised gradually by using melody and rhythm to progress from singing towards speech production. In addition to speech treatment, melodic intonation treatment has been used to some extent in aphasia rehabilitation.
According to the researchers, singing-based group rehabilitation should be used in health-care as part of aphasia rehabilitation. “In addition to training in speech production group based rehabilitation provides an excellent opportunity for peer support both for the patients and their families,” says Sini-Tuuli Siponkoski.
12. Which aspect of aphasia caused by stroke is mainly talked about in paragraph 2
A. Its classification. B. Its structure. C. Its impact. D. Its process.
13. What is the finding of the study conducted at the University of Helsinki
A. Speech treatment is more effective for aphasia.
B. Sound can help improve language function in stroke survivors.
C. Social activity has no impact on the recovery of stroke survivors.
D. Singing-based group rehabilitation can reduce caregivers’ stress.
14. What does the author say about using music in aphasia rehabilitation
A. Singing is an ineffective method. B. Music treatment has been widely used.
C. Singing elements can support recovery. D. Singing alone is the only form of treatment.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Singing-based Rehabilitation B. The Benefits of Group Interventions
C. Promoting Social Activity and Well-being D. The Role of Peer Support in Language Recovery

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。
An old and fragile woman approached a very busy road intersection. She stepped slowly forwards. She paused at the sidewalk’s edge, grasping a heavy bucket filled with fresh red apples. She aimed to cross the street.
The way to the intersection before her seemed like a tough journey. The traffic lights changed regularly, and the flow of cars seemed to be non-stop for the old woman. She knew she had to cross the street to reach her destination, a small grocery store on the other side, where she sold her apples to make ends meet.
As she slowly made her way to the crosswalk, she held the handle of the bucket. A kind-hearted driver in the first car, recognizing her struggle, stopped well before the sidewalk, allowing her to cross safely. Grateful for this act of kindness, the old woman nodded and offered the driver a slight smile as she inched forward.
A second car, in the next road, also came to a stop. Its driver also witnessed the old woman’s slow progress. The kindness of strangers warmed her heart, and with their help, she moved another step closer to her destination.
However, the third road was a different story. As the old woman moved carefully further into the road, a speeding car approached, its engine making loud sound like a beast. Panic flowed through the old lady as she realized the approaching danger. The driver of the third car had not noticed her until the very last moment.
With a jolt (颠簸) of terror, the old woman’s holding on the bucket weakened, and the bucket slipped from her weak grasp. The bucket fell to the ground, releasing its goods of apples, which scattered (散开) in all directions. The sound of the crashing bucket and rolling apples echoed through the busy city traffic.
In the emergent time, the driver of the speeding car stepped on the brake to a stop just inches from the old woman. The drivers’ heart pounded in their chest as they realized how close it had come to a tragedy.
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。
Shaken but unharmed, the old woman stood frozen, her eyes wide open with fear.

Eventually, with all the apples collected, the three drivers helped the old lady cross the road.

细节理解题。根据第二段“In 1820s, John Walker noticed a dried lump on the end of a stick while he was stirring a mix of chemicals. When he tried to scrape (刮掉) it off, flames appeared. The initial matches were made of cardboard but soon the matches came in a box equipped with a piece of sandpaper for striking.(19世纪20年代，John Walker在搅拌一种化学混合物时，注意到一根棍子的末端有一个干燥的肿块。当他想把它刮下来时，火焰冒了出来。最初的火柴是用硬纸板做的，但很快火柴就装在一个装有砂纸的盒子里，用来划火柴)”可知，是John Walker发明了火柴。故选A。

Opening the pages of Liuba Draws Beijing takes you on a fascinating visual journey through the heart of China’s busy capital city. Within its lively watercolors, traditional hutong, the grand Summer Palace, and the contemporary charm of Beijing’s Sanlitun and 798Art District all come alive through the artistic lens of Liuba Vladimirova, more famously known as Liuba Draws.
Vladimirova’s journey from the icy Siberian city of Irkutsk to the vital Beijing started during her college years, when she commenced with an academic exchange program connecting her Russian university with Liaoning University in Shenyang, in Northeast China’s Liaoning Province. It was during this transformative period that she first set foot in Beijing. Since then, her affection for the city has been undeniable.
Vladimirova’s path as an artist was far from linear (直线的). Since childhood Vladimirova has developed a love for drawing and painting. However, she pursued a different academic and professional route, studying Chinese and international trade in college and later working in trade relations between Russia and China, none of which was directly connected to the world of art. Yet, Vladimirova’s inner artist remained alive.
In 2015, Vladimirova began crafting a series of illustrations centered around Beijing, properly named “The Beijing Calendar”. What attracts Vladimirova most is Beijing’s historic hutong. These narrow alleyways, rich in history and culture, serve as a wellspring (源泉) of inspiration for her artistry.
Vladimirova’s ability to catch these hidden small differences likely comes from her unique perspective as an “outsider”—someone who didn’t grow up in Beijing. This fresh perspective allowed her to arrive in the city with fresh eyes and an eager heart, ready to embrace a new culture.
4. What do the underlined words “commenced with” mean in paragraph 2
A. Improved. B. Began. C. Resisted. D. Assessed.
5. What do we know about Vladimirova from paragraph 3
A. She gave up her dream. B. She won many art prizes several years ago.
C. She was hardworking over her childhood. D. She delayed her artistic career.
6. Why does the author mention hutong
A. To praise Beijing’s architecture. B. To show the inspiration of Vladimirova’s art making.
C. To state the main contents of an art book. D. To advise tourists to visit Beijing.
7. Which statement best summarizes Vladimirova’s success
A. Curiosity works wonders. B. Hard work pays off in time.
C. The world is diverse and lively. D. Painting has no national boundaries.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章介绍了胡同里的外国艺术家俄罗斯插画师Liuba Vladimirova以及她用水彩为北京手绘的“纪念册”——《Liuba画北京》。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中划线部分所在句中的“Vladimirova’s journey from the icy Siberian city of Irkutsk to the vital Beijing started during her college years(弗拉基米罗娃从冰冷的西伯利亚城市伊尔库茨克到充满活力的北京的旅程始于她的大学时代)”可知，Vladimirova在上大学时来到北京；由划线部分所在从句“when she commenced with an academic exchange program connecting her Russian university with Liaoning University in Shenyang, in Northeast China’s Liaoning Province(当时她commenced with一个学术交流项目，将她所在的俄罗斯大学与中国东北辽宁省沈阳的辽宁大学联系起来。)”以及下文“It was during this transformative period that she first set foot in Beijing.(正是在这一变革时期，她第一次踏上了北京的土地。)”可知，她由于在大学期间来到辽宁大学开始学术交流项目而有机会去北京；“she commenced with an academic exchange program connecting her Russian university with Liaoning University in Shenyang”表达的意思为“她开始了她的俄罗斯大学与沈阳辽宁大学的学术交流项目”，“commenced with”意为“开始”，与B选项began表达意思一致。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Vladimirova’s path as an artist was far from linear (直线的). Since childhood Vladimirova has developed a love for drawing and painting. However, she pursued a different academic and professional route, studying Chinese and international trade in college and later working in trade relations between Russia and China, none of which was directly connected to the world of art. Yet, Vladimirova’s inner artist remained alive.( Vladimirova作为艺术家的道路远非直线的。Vladimirova从小就对绘画和绘画产生了热爱。然而，她追求不同的学术和专业路线，在大学学习中国和国际贸易，后来从事中俄贸易关系方面的工作，这些都与艺术界没有直接联系。然而，Vladimirova内心的艺术家仍然活着。)”可知，尽管Vladimirova从小就对绘画和绘画产生了热爱，但是她在大学学习中国和国际贸易，并从事中俄贸易关系方面的工作；由此可知，她一开始从事的是与艺术没有联系的工作，后来才从事艺术行业，她推迟了她的艺术生涯。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In 2015, Vladimirova began crafting a series of illustrations centered around Beijing, properly named “The Beijing Calendar”. What attracts Vladimirova most is Beijing’s historic hutong. These narrow alleyways, rich in history and culture, serve as a wellspring (源泉) of inspiration for her artistry.(2015年，Vladimirova开始创作一系列以北京为中心的插图，并将其命名为“北京日历”。最吸引Vladimirova的是北京历史悠久的胡同。这些历史文化丰富的窄巷是她艺术创作灵感的源泉。)”可知，最吸引Vladimirova的是北京历史悠久的胡同，历史文化丰富的窄巷是她艺术创作灵感的源泉；由此可知，作者提到胡同是为了展示Vladimirova艺术创作的灵感。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据最后一段“Vladimirova’s ability to catch these hidden small differences likely comes from her unique perspective as an “outsider”—someone who didn’t grow up in Beijing. This fresh perspective allowed her to arrive in the city with fresh eyes and an eager heart, ready to embrace a new culture. (Vladimirova能够捕捉到这些隐藏细微差异，可能是因为她作为一个‘局外人’——一个不在北京长大的人——的独特视角。这种全新的视角让她带着全新的眼光和渴望的心来到这座城市，准备接受一种新的文化。)”可知，Vladimirova的展示北京的绘画之所以如此成功是她对这座城市充满好奇心，以一个“局外人”的身份带着全新的眼光和渴望的心来到北京，以全新的视角去接受一种新的文化；A选项“Curiosity works wonders.(好奇心能创造奇迹。)”能够最好地概括Vladimirova的成功。故选A。
C
Nasugraq Rainey Hopson is an author and illustrator (插图画家). She has written short stories and made art inspired by her I upiaq culture. The I upiaq people are native to Alaska, the US. Hopson’s first and only novel to date, Eagle Drums, is set in I upiaq tales about a great festival. The great festival is still celebrated locally today.
In the book, the hero Pina struggles with the suffering from losing his brothers, who have traveled to a nearby mountain and never returned. Pina decides to go to the same mountain, trying to uncover the facts, where he happens to meet Savik, who gives Pina a choice: To follow him or to meet the same fortune as his brothers. Pina’s decision takes himself on a journey that exposes himself to the dances and songs that are part of I upiaq culture. Eagle Drums describes aspects of I upiaq life as a world that doesn’t exist much in the current world, such as walking in the tundra (苔原) and imagining mythological beings and talking animals everywhere. It will definitely inspire the teen magical thinking in its beauty.
Hopson wants to write more I upiaq stories. “We have a lot of oral history and stories in our culture,” she says. Hopson explains that I upiaq people use their voices, facial expressions and movements to express emotions as they tell a story. “But you can’t do that when you’re writing,” she says. “It’s very uncomfortable, in a way, to have to write down something that is a performance.” But she’s up for the challenge.
Eagle Drums is for anyone who is looking for a vivid adventure. Hopson says that when I upiaq kids read her work, they get excited about seeing something from their own area and their own culture. Other kids who read her work tell Hopson they’re excited about experiencing a story they’ve never experienced before in a new place. “You know, that’s the best part, hearing feedbacks,” she says.
8. What do we know about Eagle Drums
A. It is based on the author’s culture. B. It is about a world-famous festival.
C. It is one of the author’s best novels. D. It is rich in illustrations on each page.
9. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Eagle Drums
A. Its intention. B. Its background.
C. Its content. D. Its comment.
10. Why does Hopson think it uncomfortable to write I upiaq stories
A. The I upiaq people are poor performers
B. The I upiaq culture is too rich for words.
C. The I upiaq language is difficult to catch on.
D. The I upiaq stories are little known by people.
11. What is the text
A. A news report. B. A childhood story.
C. A diary entry. D. A book review.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Hopson创作的小说《鹰鼓》，包括其创作基础、大致内容、作者创作的感受，以及读者的评价。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“She has written short stories and made art inspired by her I upiaq culture. (她写短篇小说，并受到伊诺皮亚克文化的启发进行艺术创作)”和“Hopson’s first and only novel to date, Eagle Drums, is set in I upiaq tales about a great festival. (Hopson迄今为止的第一部也是唯一一部小说《鹰鼓》以伊诺皮亚克一个盛大节日的传说为背景)”可知，《鹰鼓》这部小说是以作者的文化为基础创作的。故选A项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“In the book, the hero Pina struggles with the suffering from losing his brothers, who have traveled to a nearby mountain and never returned. Pina decides to go to the same mountain, trying to uncover the facts, where he happens to meet Savik, who gives Pina a choice: To follow him or to meet the same fortune as his brothers. Pina’s decision takes himself on a journey that exposes himself to the dances and songs that are part of I upiaq culture. (在书中，主人公Pina与失去兄弟们的痛苦作斗争，他们去了附近的一座山，再也没有回来。Pina决定去同一座山，试图揭开真相，在那里他碰巧遇到了Savik，他给了Pina一个选择：跟随他或遭遇和他的兄弟一样的命运。Pina的决定让自己踏上了一段旅程，让自己接触到伊诺皮亚克文化的舞蹈和歌曲)”可知，此处介绍了小说的主要情节。再结合“Eagle Drums describes aspects of I upiaq life as a world that doesn’t exist much in the current world, such as walking in the tundra (苔原) and imagining mythological beings and talking animals everywhere. (《鹰鼓》将伊诺皮亚克的生活描述为一个在当今世界不太存在的世界，比如在苔原上行走，想象神话中的生物，到处都是会说话的动物)”可知，此处介绍了小说呈现的独特世界。因此，本段主要介绍的是小说的内容。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hopson explains that I upiaq people use their voices, facial expressions and movements to express emotions as they tell a story. “But you can’t do that when you’re writing,” she says. “It’s very uncomfortable, in a way, to have to write down something that is a performance.” (Hopson解释说，伊诺皮亚克的人在讲故事时，会用他们的声音、面部表情和动作来表达情感。“但是当你写作的时候，你不能这样做，”她说。“从某种程度上说，不得不把一场表演写下来，这是非常不舒服的。”)”可知，伊诺皮亚克的故事往往是通过生动的声音和肢体语言来呈现的，但是写作的时候，语言很难把这样丰富的文化表现出来，所以Hopson会觉得不舒服。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，文章围绕Hopson创作的小说《鹰鼓》展开，主要从其创作基础、大致内容、作者创作的感受以及读者的评价四个方面介绍了这部小说。因此，文章应该是一篇书评。故选D项。
D
Language function and the psychosocial well-being of patients and their families can be promoted with singing-based rehabilitation (康复). Group intervention provides opportunities for peer support while being simultaneously cost-effective.
Approximately 40% of stroke (中风) survivors experience aphasia (失语症). a difficulty to understand or produce spoken or written language caused by a cerebrovascular (脑血管的) accident. In half of these cases, the language damage still continues one-year post-stroke. Aphasia has wide-ranging effects on the ability to function and quality of life of stroke survivors and easily leads to social loneliness.
According to a recent study conducted at the University of Helsinki, singing-based group rehabilitation can support communication and speech production of patients and increase social activity even at the long-lasting stage of stroke. The hard work experienced among the family caregivers participating in the study also decreased remarkably. “Our study is the first where caregivers participated in rehabilitation and their psychological well-being was evaluated.” says Postdoctoral Researcher Sini-Tuuli Siponkoski.
Previous research has established that the ability to sing can be left even in severe aphasia. “Our study used a wide variety of singing elements, such as singing by a group of singers, melodic intonation treatment and tablet-assisted singing training.” clarifies Doctoral Researcher Anni Pitkǎniemi.
In melodic intonation therapy, speech production is practised gradually by using melody and rhythm to progress from singing towards speech production. In addition to speech treatment, melodic intonation treatment has been used to some extent in aphasia rehabilitation.
According to the researchers, singing-based group rehabilitation should be used in health-care as part of aphasia rehabilitation. “In addition to training in speech production group based rehabilitation provides an excellent opportunity for peer support both for the patients and their families,” says Sini-Tuuli Siponkoski.
12. Which aspect of aphasia caused by stroke is mainly talked about in paragraph 2
A. Its classification. B. Its structure. C. Its impact. D. Its process.
13. What is the finding of the study conducted at the University of Helsinki
A. Speech treatment is more effective for aphasia.
B. Sound can help improve language function in stroke survivors.
C. Social activity has no impact on the recovery of stroke survivors.
D. Singing-based group rehabilitation can reduce caregivers’ stress.
14. What does the author say about using music in aphasia rehabilitation
A. Singing is an ineffective method. B. Music treatment has been widely used.
C. Singing elements can support recovery. D. Singing alone is the only form of treatment.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. Singing-based Rehabilitation B. The Benefits of Group Interventions
C. Promoting Social Activity and Well-being D. The Role of Peer Support in Language Recovery
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】

Aphasia has wide-ranging effects on the ability to function and quality of life of stroke survivors and easily leads to social loneliness.(大约40%的中风幸存者会出现失语症。由于脑血管事故而造成的理解或产生口语或书面语的困难。在其中一半的病例中，语言损伤在中风后一年仍在继续。失语症对中风幸存者的功能和生活质量有广泛的影响，并容易导致社交孤独)”可知，第2段主要讨论了中风引起的失语的影响。故选C。

【答案】Dear Novak
I’m writing to invite you to go sightseeing this Sunday. Our tourist destination this time is a forest park not far from our school, which is full of natural and cultural landscapes. Deep into it, the natural beauty unfolds before visitors’ eyes. There is a peaceful clearing bathed in sunlight. Towering trees surround the clearing, with their canopies forming a natural roof over the area. In the center, a crystal-clear stream winds its way through moss-covered rocks, creating a peaceful atmosphere. From a wooden observation deck, you can admire the panoramic view of the forest and the ancient buildings, like temples and churches as well.
I’m sure that the visit will help us relax and get rid of tiredness. Looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
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。
An old and fragile woman approached a very busy road intersection. She stepped slowly forwards. She paused at the sidewalk’s edge, grasping a heavy bucket filled with fresh red apples. She aimed to cross the street.
The way to the intersection before her seemed like a tough journey. The traffic lights changed regularly, and the flow of cars seemed to be non-stop for the old woman. She knew she had to cross the street to reach her destination, a small grocery store on the other side, where she sold her apples to make ends meet.
As she slowly made her way to the crosswalk, she held the handle of the bucket. A kind-hearted driver in the first car, recognizing her struggle, stopped well before the sidewalk, allowing her to cross safely. Grateful for this act of kindness, the old woman nodded and offered the driver a slight smile as she inched forward.
A second car, in the next road, also came to a stop. Its driver also witnessed the old woman’s slow progress. The kindness of strangers warmed her heart, and with their help, she moved another step closer to her destination.
However, the third road was a different story. As the old woman moved carefully further into the road, a speeding car approached, its engine making loud sound like a beast. Panic flowed through the old lady as she realized the approaching danger. The driver of the third car had not noticed her until the very last moment.
With a jolt (颠簸) of terror, the old woman’s holding on the bucket weakened, and the bucket slipped from her weak grasp. The bucket fell to the ground, releasing its goods of apples, which scattered (散开) in all directions. The sound of the crashing bucket and rolling apples echoed through the busy city traffic.
In the emergent time, the driver of the speeding car stepped on the brake to a stop just inches from the old woman. The drivers’ heart pounded in their chest as they realized how close it had come to a tragedy.
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。
Shaken but unharmed, the old woman stood frozen, her eyes wide open with fear.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Eventually, with all the apples collected, the three drivers helped the old lady cross the road.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Shaken but unharmed, the old woman stood frozen, her eyes wide open with fear. The first two drivers, having witnessed the near miss, rushed out of their cars to help her. And the third driver joined them as well. In the honking horns and the growing traffic jam, the three drivers knelt beside the old woman, their concern evident on their faces. They began to gather the scattered apples, their hands moving swiftly to get back each one.
Eventually, with all the apples collected, the three drivers helped the old lady cross the road. With a supportive arm on either side, the old woman made her way to the safety of the sidewalk. Tear s welled up in her grateful eyes as she looked at the strangers who had come to her aid. With a trembling hand, she extended the apples towards the three drivers. They accepted the gift with genuine gratitude, recognizing that her gesture was her way of expressing her thanks. After ensuring that the old woman was safely across the street, the three drivers returned to their cars, and the traffic was back to track.
