Akira Toriyama, a 68-year-old Japan’s leading comics author, whose manga and anime(漫画和动画系列)franchise “Dragon Ball” achieved worldwide success, passed away on March 1,2024.
Mr. Toriyama’s death was confirmed on Friday in a statement by his design production company, Bird Studio, and Capsule Corporation Tokyo, that the cause of it was the acute subdural hematoma(硬脑膜下血肿), a severe condition in which blood gathers and blocks the blood vessel between the skull and brain. But it did not say where Mr. Toriyama died.
Mr. Toriyama’s body of work, which includes “Dr. Slump” and “Sand Land,” gains its recognition far beyond Japan’s borders, having influenced generations of manga artists and cartoonists. The studio said he had several projects in the works at his death. His best-known work, “Dragon Ball,” told us a story happening on a young boy named Son Goku who went on a journey to collect the seven magic al orbs(魔法球)that awoke and brought in a wish-granting dragon. Since it was on in the 1980s, it has been published 42 volumes, sold millions of copies worldwide and become one of the most famous manga, inspiring television, film and video game adaptations.
Throughout his career, Mr. Toriyama said in a 2013 interview with the Japanese newspaper The Asahi Shimbun, believe it or not, he did not care if his work did anything besides entertaining its readers. He was, as he put it, unlike “other manga artists concerned about conveying didactic(说教的)messages.” “The role of my manga,” he said, “is to be a work of entertainment through and through.”
24.What can we learn about Akira Toriyama
A.He was born in 1965 and died in 2024.
B.His work “Dragon Ball” earned him the recognition from the world.
C.He was died of a acute heart attack.
D.He died in Japan, where he became a leading comics author.
25.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.The influence of Akira Toriyama’s work. B.The best-known work of Akira Toriyama.
C.The adaptation of Akira Toriyama’s work. D.The main character in Akira Toriyama’s work.
26.Which of the following is TRUE about the “Dragon Ball”
A.It has been one of the 42 most famous manga.
B.It was a story about a young boy who found magic al orbs with a dragon.
C.It has been adapted into diverse versions since it was on.
D.It was once reported on a Japanese newspaper.
27.What can we conclude from the passage

B.Akira ToriYamaha takes the readers’ needs into consideration.
C.Manga is the only means of entertainment in Japan.
D.Birds Studio is the largest design production company in Japan.

When the PISA worldwide educational comparisons came out late in 2023, most countries fell to wondering how to do better. Spain had lost ground since the last time the tests were done in 2018. But students in Catalonia lost even more. Besides, native Spanish-speakers did worse than Catalan-speakers, which soon led to the blame on language policy.
In the 1980s Catalonia began a transition to teaching all subjects in Catalan, except Spanish. Several years ago the region’s top court ruled that at least 25% of classes must be given in Spanish. The regional government, led by separatists, then passed a law allowing individual school heads to raise or lower the level of teaching in Spanish, according to their need.
A new report for the Association for Bilingual Schools in Catalonia(AEB), which campaigns for more Spanish, said that hardly any schools have changed their published policies. And so they requested the European Parliament to investigate whether pupils’ basic rights had been violated. The week before Christmas a delegation made a fact-finding trip. The Catalan education secretary says they came having already made up their minds that the region’s language policy harms pupils’ performance.
In the Escola San Jaume, a primary school in El Prat de Llobregat, a heavily Spanish-speaking town near Barcelona, all signs are in Catalan. Only about 10% of the pupils are native Catalan-speakers, says the director, Arturo Ramírez. Despite the never-ending discussion across Spain, it is one largely achieved in Catalonia, where over 80% of the population speaks and reads Catalan, and everyone, except some immigrants, speaks Spanish too. Watching the happy students on his playground, Mr Ramírez says “There is no problem here. The problem is outside the building.”
28.What caused the blame on language policy
A.That the native Catalan-speakers did better than Spanish-speakers in PISA.
B.That Spain had lost ground.
C.That most countries was wondering how to do better.
D.That the PISA worldwide educational comparisons came out.
29.Which best describes the transition in the 1980s
A.At least 25% of classes must be given in Spanish.
B.All subjects were taught in Catalan.
C.Raise or lower the level in teaching according to need.
D.The regional government passed a law.
30.Which might be the percentage of the schools that have changed their published policies
A.100%. B.50%. C.75%. D.1%.
31.What might be the attitude of Mr Ramírez to their language teaching
A.Indifferent. B.Neutral. C.Confident. D.Unclear.
D
Save the rice for cooking, says the phone company, which has finally acknowledged the longstanding “trick” could do more damage.
You know the nightmare situation: You dropped your phone in water—be it pool, ocean, or toilet, your worries get the best of you, although iPhone 12’s and onwards are designed to survive 30 minutes of aquatic submersion. In the urgent need of saving your expensive device from potential damage, you remember your friend’s suggestion to throw it in a bag of rice overnight. Supposedly, the grain draws out any remaining water droplets from the smartphone’s tiny crevices, saving its precious circuitry in the process. They swore by it, after all. What is there to lose
Well, as the phone company spotted earlier today, a recently updated document states that this “trick” could actually cause further issues in your phone. “Don’t put your wet phone in a bag of rice,” the company warns in the revised article on its dreaded Liquid Detection Alert, “For doing so could allow small particles of rice to damage your phone,” while the rice starch(淀粉)can block the innards through the device’s small cracks. Besides all that, rice simply isn’t as effective as other materials, such as those silica packets you already should be recycling, anyway.
Among the other rumored solutions to avoid, the company advises phone owners not to use an “external heat source” such as a blow dryer, as well as leave the compressed air can in the utility closet. Similarly, trying to stuff cotton swabs, napkins, paper towels, or any other “foreign object” into charging ports could make things worse.
So, what should you do if your phone takes a plunge The company advises a gentle approach in such situations, such as simply tapping the device against your hand “with the connector facing down” to dislodge liquid, then leaving it in an open, dry space with decent airflow for at least 30 minutes. From there, try connecting it to a cable charger. Yes. They really did pull out the trusty “Have you tried turning it on and off again ” line for this one.
32.Which is closest in meaning to “get the best of” in paragraph 2
A.Make full of. B.Make fun of. C.Take care of. D.Take control of.
33.Why is it NOT suggested to put your wet phone in rice
A.Because the rice will damage the inner parts of the phone.
B.Because the rice is cheaper and more effective than other materials.
C.Because the rice will stick to the phone.
D.Because the rice will be wet.
34.What is the suitable way to dry a wet phone according to the phone company
A.Stuffing cotton swabs to absorb the water.
B.Leaving it in an open, dry place with constant flowing air.
C.Using a blow dryer to heat up the inside.
D.Using napkins to dry up the surface.
35.Which can be the best title of this passage
A.Placing wet phone in rice may hurt. B.Rice is a good choice for drying up wet phone.
C.Phone 12 is designed water-proof. D.Approaches to dry up your wet phone.

Hope is a way of thinking. We know it can be taught; we know it can be nurtured.
Being hopeful doesn’t mean engaging in wishful thinking or blind optimism. 36 . The opposite of hope, therefore, is not pessimism, but indifference, with its loss of motivation. And while wishing is passive, hope is about taking action. Here are some tips that can help cultivate hope-even when it feels unattainable.
Give yourself permission to be hopeful
Remember when you were a kid, and well-intentioned adults cautioned you not to get your hopes up 37 , at some point we are going to be disappointed. The solution is not never allowing ourselves to feel hopeful or giving up on hope altogether.
Set at least one meaningful goal
In order to be hopeful, people must think in a goal-oriented way. Make it a point to always be working toward at least one goal that’s meaningful. In other words, it shouldn’t be something you have to do, but something you want to do. 38 .
39
People who are high in hope, meanwhile, tend to generate lots of pathways-so if one doesn’t work out, they have an alternative at the ready. If you’re struggling to make a plan, or you keep being blocked-by someone else, or an unfair system, or bad luck-sitting down with a pen and paper and giving yourself an hour to brainstorm solutions will be suggested.
Call your support team
40 . Getting a good night’s rest, following a health y diet, and meditating can all promote agency. Sometimes, however, the strongest source of agency is other people. Make a list of your biggest supporters, so when you’re feeling unmotivated, you know exactly who to call for a boost.
A.Struggle to make a plan.
B.Brainstorm solutions.
C.Goals can be anything that’s important to us.
D.Rather, it’s the belief that we have the ability to go after a better future.
E.People who are hopeful tend to have a lot of “agency”.
F.When you can see yourself in the future, that is the very essence of hope.
G.In fact, whether or not we allow ourselves to hope.

Rikki’s mom was preparing baked beans and mixing up potato salad to go with Saturday night barbecue when Rikki stormed in the front door and marched to her room. She glanced out the window and saw their neighbor Lexi walking back to her house across the road. Mother’s intuition told herself this situation might need some direction.
“Rikki, come in here. I need some help with dinner.” Rikki came out with an obstinate look on her face —the kind that kids have when they know they are wrong but have convinced themselves they are right.
“I noticed that Lexi came over but didn’t stay long. She is your age and in your class at school. Why doesn’t she stay longer ” Mom watched Rikki out of the corner of her eye as she continued to prepare food. “I don’t like her,” Rikki whined. “I wish she would stop coming over here all the time. She dresses terrible, and sometimes she doesn’t smell good. Her nose is always runny, and her hair is tangled. None of us like her.” Mom knew that “none of us” meant the popular crowd Rikki ran with.
“That’s not her fault, Rikki. I don’t know what her family is like, but maybe she doesn’t have anyone to help her. Some kids don’t have the extra things that you and your friends have. That doesn’t make them any less worthy than you.” Rikki replied that she knew that, and those things were not the real issue. “I just don’t like to play with her, Momma. She doesn’t like to do the same things that I do.”
Mom told Rikki to go on outside and play. What she didn’t know, however, was that Rikki’s dad had been watching while he was grilling. He didn’t like the fact that Rikki had ignored Lexi, so he decided to intervene. He wanted to know why Lexi was leaving with her head down and looking so sad.

36.D 此空设于段中,与上下文存在转折关系。Rather开头的句子能与上文的doesn’t mean 形成转折的句间关系。译文:充满希望并不意味着一厢情愿或盲目乐观。而是一种我们有能力追求更好未来的信念。符合语境,故选D。
37.G 此空设于段中,与上下文存在解释关系。In fact是对上文问句的回答。译文:还记得小时候,大人们出于好心告诫你不要抱太大希望吗?事实上,无论我们是否允许自己抱有希望,在某些时候我们都会感到失望。符合语境,故选G。
38.C 此空设于段尾,与上文存在顺承关系。本题位置在段末是对本段的总结,与本段小标题Set at least one meaningful goal呼应。译文:目标可是任何对我们重要的事情。符合语境,故选C。
39.B 此空设于标题位置,与下文存在总分关系。从本段中知道主旨大意为头脑风暴出更多的解决办法,而不是制定一个计划。故选B。
40.E 此空设于段首,与下文存在总分关系。结合小标题“向他人寻求帮助”,以及下文不断出现的“agency”,“充满希望的人往往得到更多的帮助”这句话符合语境,故选E。

第四部分 第一节应用文写作
【参考范文】
The most effective way for me to improve my English is singing English song. The reason why I prefer it is the singing contest I used to got involved in.
Last term I had an opportunity to attend a singing contest held in my school. It was the first time that I had tried to sing in English. In the beginning, it was quite difficult to sing the song. However, I devoted most of my leisure hours to practicing it.
Even though English is still quite hard for me, I have had my own way to interest me in it.

She just walks over here.” Hearing what Rikki said, her dad sat down beside her and explained why he had felt so sad for Lexi. He went on to tell her that he didn’t want her to be that child or adult who looked down on others. He told her he wanted her to be kind and helpful. Rikk felt sorry, with tears streaming down her face. “What about inviting Lexi to join our night barbecue ” Rikki’s father suggested. Rikki nodded with relief.
Rikki went with her dad to invite Lexi. Then Rikki came back with a sweet glow in her eyes. She realized that they have something in commom actually. The girls talked a lot, and then they played in the tree swing and played ball, talking and giggling. They were having a great time. Rikki began to think differently from that day on.

Then later I met a really good music teacher at secondary school who introduced me to the guitar, and I knew immediately it was the right instrument for me. So I stopped my piano lessons.

W: Hey, everyone! Welcome to our club’s monthly gathering. We’ve been fortunate to receive valuable advice from famous athletes on improving our skills and developing our physical fitness. Today, we have something unique for you. It gives me great pleasure to introduce our special guest, Adam Thompson. Adam is a famous sports psychologist and consultant from Stanford University. He has worked with professional basketball teams in Los Angeles, international tennis players in Paris, and is now working here in Manchester. Adam believes that being a sports psychologist is quite challenging in today’s world, where athletes are flooded with unsupported claims and misleading information. It’s necessary to tell fact from fiction when it comes to mental well-being and good performance. That’s precisely why we’ve invited Adam here today. He won’t be telling us what we should or shouldn’t do, but he will inspire us to make smarter choices. So, let’s give a warm welcome to Adam Thompson!
