Growing up in a small village in southern Ghana, Osci Boateng watched many of his family members and neighbors struggle to access basic health care. In many regions of the country, it can take hours to get to the nearest hospital. Boateng said many people lost their lives due to preventable or treatable diseases. His grandmother and aunt were among them.
Feeling an urgent call to help, Boateng decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana where education and preventative health care were lacking.
Boateng wanted to find a way to remove these barriers to health care access and education. He started his nonprofit organization, OKB Hope Foundation. In 2021, he converted (转变) a van (面包车) into a mobile doctor’s office and started bringing health care directly to those in need. A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities and provide free routine medical care.
On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis (尿液分析) as well as provide medicine. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people, ” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another. Since its launch, the Hope Health Van has served more than 4,000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care, according to Boateng.
Boateng has gone all in on his OKB Hope Foundation, recently quitting his job to dedicate his time to bringing health care to his home country. But for him, the sacrifices (牺牲) are well worth. “Words cannot describe the feeling that you provide care for someone who otherwise wouldn’t be alive if your mobile health van wasn’t there.” He has big plans for the future. He hopes to expand them to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but those in other countries.
4. What is the purpose of mentioning the example in paragraph 1
A. To show the importance of life. B. To describe how hard Boateng’s family lived.
C. To point out what’s wrong with the hospital. D. To stress the seriousness of lacking health care.
5. How does Boateng carry out his mission
A. He operates on patients in the van. B. He rents a doctor’s office wherever he goes.
C. He provides medical care by charging some fees. D. He offers people health care using mobile clinic.
6. What do we know about the Hope Health Van
A. It really works. B. It makes a profit.
C. It serves the whole Ghana. D. It produces some good medicine.
7. Which of the following best describe Boateng
A. Reliable and creative. B. Caring and ambitious.
C. Considerate and humorous. D. Determined and demanding.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. B

Landscape architect Kotchakorn Voraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25 miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess (过度的) energy use, disrupted (扰乱) biodiversity or the heat island effect.
The 236, 806-square-foot structure, which opened in December 2019, includes a flood water management system and Asia’s largest rooftop organic farm. It combines modern landscape architecture with traditional agricultural knowledge, creating a green and friendly environment.
The green roof, containing an H-shaped landscape, looks like a futuristic hill with a brick building beneath it. The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces (之字形梯田) of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds, The excess water is directed into four storage ponds — with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains.
The roof’s terraces are filled with organically grown crops, including a drought tolerant variety of rice, many local vegetables and herbs. The farm can supply the canteens on campus with a large amount of rice, herbs and vegetables a year. The food waste is composted (把……制成堆肥) to fertilize the farm, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system.
The farm serves as an outdoor classroom and a source of local jobs, too. Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability curriculum. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and so on,” says Voraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.”
8. What can we say about Voraakhom’s work
A. It’s short-lived. B. It’s creative.
C. It’s demanding. D. It’s time-consuming.
9. Why is the rooftop designed to be zigzag
A. To store more water.
B. To plant diverse vegetables.
C. To slow the speed of water flow.
D. To make it look more attractive than other buildings.
10. What can be inferred about the farm from paragraph 4
A. It uses food as fertilizer. B. It benefits the environment.
C. It improves students’ lifestyle. D. It produces vegetables and fruits.
11. What does the author want to show by mentioning the outdoor classroom
A. Students can learn hands-on knowledge on the farm.
B. Farmers working on the farm can become professors.
C. The farm prevents government from offering people jobs.
D. The farm harms the relationship between university and community.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了,景观设计师Kotchakorn Voraakhom在泰国曼谷市中心的Thammasat大学Rangsit校区设计了一个新的绿色屋顶,它将现代景观建筑与传统农业知识相结合,创造了一个绿色友好的环境。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中“Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess (过度的) energy use, disrupted (扰乱) biodiversity or the heat island effect. (她的富有想象力的工作挑战了人们的普遍看法,即城市化对地球有负面影响,无论是洪水、过度能源使用、生物多样性破坏还是热岛效应)”可知,Voraakhom的作品富有想象力、很具创意。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中“The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces (之字形梯田) of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds, The excess water is directed into four storage ponds — with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. (小山以之字形梯田种植床为特征,一直通向底部。当雨水到达屋顶时,它沿着Z字形流下,同时被种植床上的土壤吸收。多余的水被引导到四个容量高达300万加仑的蓄水池中。与普通混凝土屋顶相比,这一过程减缓了雨水径流的流速)”可知,屋顶设计成之字形是为了减慢水流的速度。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段中“The food waste is composted (把……制成堆肥) to fertilize the farm, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system. (食物垃圾被堆肥以给农场施肥,储存池中的水被用来给植物浇水,形成了一个完全本地化的循环系统)”可知,食物垃圾可用来堆肥,储存池中的水可用来浇灌植物,无污染无浪费,此农场有益于环境。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段中“Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability curriculum. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and so on,” says Voraakhom. (作为大学可持续发展课程的一部分,农民举办可持续农业和营养讲习班。Voraakhom说:“学生和社区成员被邀请参加季节性播种、收割等活动。”)”可知,通过农民举办的可持续农业和营养讲习班,学生会被邀请参加季节性播种、收割等活动,可得出作者提到户外教室,是为了表明学生可以在农场学习动手知识。故选A项。

Plastic is everywhere in our modern world. Its toughness makes it an extremely useful material from household items to vehicle parts, but that same toughness makes it hard to break down for recycling or disposal (处理). However, Japanese scientists at the University of Tokyo have developed a new plastic material that can be broken down more easily and can self-heal and remember past shapes.
Based on a kind of plastic called an epoxy resin vitrimer, which is brittle (脆性的), the new plastic boasts a huge range of advantages. Once scratched with a knife, it can completely patch itself up after being heated to 150 ℃ for just 60 seconds. When shaped into the shape of a crane, then flattened, it can fold itself back into the crane shape by being heated up. It does all of this much faster than others of its type.
The new plastic can also break down easier. Even if it’s discarded (丢弃) into the environment, it still poses less of a, problem than other kinds of plastic, which the team demonstrated by placing it in seawater for 30 days. It biodegraded by 25% and released molecules (分子) that are essential food for marine life.
The new plastic is more resistant to breaking. It can also repair itself, and can recover its original memorized shape. It even biodegrades safely in a marine environment, according to Shota Ando, a researcher of the study.
The material can be used in a variety of applications, “Infrastructure materials for roads and bridges are often composed of epoxy resins mixed with compounds such as concrete and carbon,” said Ando. “By using the new plastic, these would be easier to maintain as they would be stronger and healable using heat. Unlike conventional epoxy resins, this new material is hard but stretchable, so it could also be expected to strongly bond materials of different hardness and stretch.”
12. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 1
A. To introduce the topic of the text. B. To show the disadvantages of plastic.
C. To highlight the importance of plastic. D. To indicate his views on previous plastic.
13. What do the underlined words “patch itself up” mean in paragraph 2
A. Change itself. B. Shape itself. C. Repair itself. D. Burn itself.
14. What do we know about the new plastic
A. It is safe for animals in the ocean. B. It can provide nutrition for animals.
C. It can change its shape when frozen. D. It is more brittle than previous plastic.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Research Of New Molecules B. An Interesting Scientific Study
C. The Widespread Application Of Plastic D. A New Environmentally Friendly Plastic
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】

Dietary Habits
It’s well-known that we can do nothing without good health. However, what concerns me most is that more and more students tend to eat junk food like instant noodles, especially before going to bed at night. What’s worse, many students have an unbalanced diet. As is often the case, some girls only eat vegetables to keep slim.
Simply eating food like these is not good for their health, thus lacking nutrition and energy, which can’t help them deal with heavy academic burden. Personally, nutrition and health are essential to us all. We should eat a balanced diet.

One morning, as I walked to the market, I saw an old man, with a bandanna(印花大方巾) covering his face, sitting in front of a tea shop. He seemed to be just watching the traffic on the road, not paying attention to anyone. His bandanna was dirty and his clothes were crumpled(褶皱的). His hair stuck out because he wore a cap that didn’t fit well. I quickly assumed he was a beggar asking for money. I decided to give him some change on my way back from the market.
A little further down the road, there was a young man lying on the pavement(人行道) with his arms outstretched(张开的). No one passing by paid any attention to him. It seemed that he had drunk too much. Thus, I thought to myself that he was just a worthless man who had spent all his money on wine.
I finished my shopping at the market and headed back. Before reaching the point where the old man sat, I took out all the change I wanted to give to him. When I approached him and held out the change, he barely looked at me, but still looked ahead. He shook his head as if he was saying he didn’t need it. I insisted and pushed the change into his hand. As I stood there feeling proud of my act of charity, the old man slowly got up and walked to the young man who was lying on the pavement. The old man kept down, woke the young man up and whispered something in his ear. It seemed that they knew each other. The young man seemed to respond and then shook his head. The old man walked back and headed for the tea shop.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
I stood there, watching in amazement, as he walked to the tea shop. He stood at the door and asked for something for which he paid with the money I gave, and collected a bun and a cup of hot tea. He then went back to the young man, helped him to sit, and helped him to eat the bun and drink the tea. He came back to his old place where he was sitting and sat down. I was still standing there watching all this.
The old man noticed that I was still there so he looked up. He explained that the young man had not eaten for two days and had no energy even to sit up. That was why he lay on the pavement. Suddenly, I felt ashamed of judging others by their appearance. I found myself so small and admired the nonjudgemental generosity of the man who had so little compared to me. He was truly generous and I learned the lesson of nonjudgemental generosity from this man who was in a far less privileged state than me.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,以人物为线索。作者去市场买东西时注意到了一个衣着简陋的老人,以为他是乞丐,并决定买完东西后把零钱给他。作者再往前走时发现人行道上有一个年轻人,看着他的样子,作者以为他是一个醉酒的男人。作者买完东西后到老人那里想把零钱给他,但老人并不收,最后在作者的坚持下他才收了。令作者意外的是,老人去茶馆买了吃食给年轻人,并向作者解释了原因。作者从这件事中明白了在慷慨助人时不按个人道德评判的重要性。
【详解】1. 续写线索:
①由续写第一段首句“我站在那里,惊奇地看着他走向茶铺。”可知,第一段可以描写老人去茶铺买了吃食给年轻人。
②由续写第二段首句“老人注意到我还在那里,于是抬起头来。”可知,第二段可以描写老人对作者解释年轻人的情况,以及作者从这件事中明白了在慷慨助人时不按个人道德评判的重要性。
2. 段落续写:作者站在原地看着老人去茶铺——老人用钱买了面包和茶——老人帮助年轻人进食——老人抬头向作者解释原委——作者为自己以貌取人感到愧疚,明白了慷慨助人时不按个人道德评判的重要性

Growing up in a small village in southern Ghana Osci Boateng watched many of his family members and neighbors struggle to access basic health care. In many regions of the country, it can take hours to get to the nearest hospital. Boateng said many people lost their lives due to preventable or treatable diseases. His grandmother and aunt were among them.
Feeling an urgent call to help, Boateng decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana where education and preventative health care were lacking.
Boateng wanted to find a way to remove these barriers to health care access and education. He started his nonprofit organization, OKB Hope Foundation. In 2021, he converted (转变) a van (面包车) into a mobile doctor’s office and started bringing health care directly to those in need. A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities and provide free routine medical care.
On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis (尿液分析) as well as provide medicine. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people, ” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another. Since its launch, the Hope Health Van has served more than 4,000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care, according to Boateng.
Boateng has gone all in on his OKB Hope Foundation, recently quitting his job to dedicate his time to bringing health care to his home country. But for him, the sacrifices (牺牲) are well worth. “Words cannot describe the feeling that you provide care for someone who otherwise wouldn’t be alive if your mobile health van wasn’t there.” He has big plans for the future. He hopes to expand them to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but those in other countries.
4. What is the purpose of mentioning the example in paragraph 1
A. To show the importance of life. B. To describe how hard Boateng’s family lived.
C To point out what’s wrong with the hospital. D. To stress the seriousness of lacking health care.
5. How does Boateng carry out his mission
A. He operates on patients in the van. B. He rents a doctor’s office wherever he goes.
C. He provides medical care by charging some fees. D. He offers people health care using mobile clinic.
6. What do we know about the Hope Health Van
A. It really works. B. It makes a profit.
C. It serves the whole Ghana. D. It produces some good medicine.
7. Which of the following best describe Boateng
A. Reliable and creative. B. Caring and ambitious.
C. Considerate and humorous. D. Determined and demanding.

Landscape architect Kotchakorn Voraakhom has designed a new green roof on the Rangsit Campus of Thammasat University, about 25 miles north of central Bangkok, Thailand. Her imaginative work challenges the common thinking that urbanization has a negative impact on the planet, whether flooding, excess (过度的) energy use, disrupted (扰乱) biodiversity or the heat island effect.
The 236, 806-square-foot structure, which opened in December 2019, includes a flood water management system and Asia’s largest rooftop organic farm. It combines modern landscape architecture with traditional agricultural knowledge, creating a green and friendly environment.
The green roof, containing an H-shaped landscape, looks like a futuristic hill with a brick building beneath it. The hill features a complex pattern of zigzagging terraces (之字形梯田) of planted beds, leading all the way down to the bottom. When rainwater hits the roof, it flows down the zigzags while being absorbed by the soil in the beds, The excess water is directed into four storage ponds — with a capacity of up to 3 million gallons. The process slows down the flow speed of rainwater runoff compared to a normal concrete rooftop. This keeps the area from flooding during heavy rains.
The roof’s terraces are filled with organically grown crops, including a drought tolerant variety of rice, many local vegetables and herbs. The farm can supply the canteens on campus with a large amount of rice, herbs and vegetables a year. The food waste is composted (把……制成堆肥) to fertilize the farm, and water from the storage ponds is used to water plants, creating an entirely localized and circular system.
The farm serves as an outdoor classroom and a source of local jobs, too. Farmers offer workshops on sustainable agriculture and nutrition as part of the university’s sustainability curriculum. “Students and community members are invited to participate in seasonal seeding, harvesting, and so on,” says Voraakhom. “The urban farm is training a new generation of organic farmers with real-world skills. It also promotes a sense of community.”
8. What can we say about Voraakhom’s work
A. It’s short-lived. B. It’s creative.
C. It’s demanding. D. It’s time-consuming.
9. Why is the rooftop designed to be zigzag
A. To store more water.
B. To plant diverse vegetables.
C. To slow the speed of water flow.
D. To make it look more attractive than other buildings.
10. What can be inferred about the farm from paragraph 4
A. It uses food as fertilizer. B. It benefits the environment.
C. It improves students’ lifestyle. D. It produces vegetables and fruits.
11. What does the author want to show by mentioning the outdoor classroom
A. Students can learn hands-on knowledge on the farm.
B. Farmers working on the farm can become professors.
C. The farm prevents government from offering people jobs.
D. The farm harms the relationship between university and community.
D
Plastic is everywhere in our modern world. Its toughness makes it an extremely useful material from household items to vehicle parts, but that same toughness makes it hard to break down for recycling or disposal (处理). However, Japanese scientists at the University of Tokyo have developed a new plastic material that can be broken down more easily and can self-heal and remember past shapes.
Based on a kind of plastic called an epoxy resin vitrimer, which is brittle (脆性的), the new plastic boasts a huge range of advantages. Once scratched with a knife, it can completely patch itself up after being heated to 150 ℃ for just 60 seconds. When shaped into the shape of a crane, then flattened, it can fold itself back into the crane shape by being heated up. It does all of this much faster than others of its type.
The new plastic can also break down easier. Even if it’s discarded (丢弃) into the environment, it still poses less of a, problem than other kinds of plastic, which the team demonstrated by placing it in seawater for 30 days. It biodegraded by 25% and released molecules (分子) that are essential food for marine life.
The new plastic is more resistant to breaking. It can also repair itself, and can recover its original memorized shape. It even biodegrades safely in a marine environment, according to Shota Ando, a researcher of the study.
The material can be used in a variety of applications, “Infrastructure materials for roads and bridges are often composed of epoxy resins mixed with compounds such as concrete and carbon,” said Ando. “By using the new plastic, these would be easier to maintain as they would be stronger and healable using heat. Unlike conventional epoxy resins, this new material is hard but stretchable, so it could also be expected to strongly bond materials of different hardness and stretch.”

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。
One morning, as I walked to the market, I saw an old man, with a bandanna(印花大方巾) covering his face, sitting in front of a tea shop. He seemed to be just watching the traffic on the road, not paying attention to anyone. His bandanna was dirty and his clothes were crumpled(褶皱的). His hair stuck out because he wore a cap that didn’t fit well. I quickly assumed he was a beggar asking for money. I decided to give him some change on my way back from the market.
A little further down the road, there was a young man lying on the pavement(人行道) with his arms outstretched(张开的). No one passing by paid any attention to him. It seemed that he had drunk too much. Thus, I thought to myself that he was just a worthless man who had spent all his money on wine.
I finished my shopping at the market and headed back. Before reaching the point where the old man sat, I took out all the change I wanted to give to him. When I approached him and held out the change, he barely looked at me, but still looked ahead. He shook his head as if he was saying he didn’t need it. I insisted and pushed the change into his hand. As I stood there feeling proud of my act of charity, the old man slowly got up and walked to the young man who was lying on the pavement. The old man kept down, woke the young man up and whispered something in his ear. It seemed that they knew each other. The young man seemed to respond and then shook his head. The old man walked back and headed for the tea shop.
