When she worked in banking, Irini Tzortzoglou’s idea of cooking was to pick up a ready meal from Marks &Spencer on her way home, and put it in the oven (烤箱). But now, since winning the BBC cooking competition Master Chef at the age of 60, with menus inspired by her Greek heritage (遗产), food has become her life and new career.
She had not been overly interested in cooking, though as a child, food was an important part of her life. Tzortzoglou, 64, was born in Greece, where her grandparents’ house was always open, and her grandmother would often be cooking for dozens of people. Tzortzoglou would help out: “I loved the smells. I loved the processes.”
Tzortzoglou felt very bored after retiring. Then one day her husband said, “Why don’t you try Master Chef because you always love watching it.”
She was a reasonably good cook, who loved entertaining and could put together a decent dinner party menu but competing on the show demanded a whole new skill level. “I didn’t want to embarrass myself by leaving in round one, so I trained myself for a year,” she said.
She put in time, effort and money. She went to Athens to see what was happening with Greek food today. She ate at Michelin-star restaurants to see what Greek Master Chef and the young chefs were doing. And then she started practicing. She also started physical training because she could see how tough it was to run around the kitchen while filming, or stand for hours.
Since her win, Tzortzoglou has become immersed in (沉浸于) Greek food, and has written a cookery book, Under the Olive Tree. “I don’t have free time, but I love it,” she said. “I feel like a child let loose in a sweet shop.”
24.What was Tzortzoglou like as a child
A.She liked watching BBC programs. B.She studied hard to become a banker.
C.She showed some interest in cooking. D.She had to cook for the whole family.
25.Why did Tzortzoglou take part in Master Chef
A.To pursue a new career. B.To experience a decent party.
C.To have a full life. D.To preserve the heritage of her homeland.
26.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A.Tzortzoglou’s love for Greek food.
B.Tzortzoglou’s effort to win the competition.
C.Tzortzoglou’s desire to go back to Athens.
D.Tzortzoglou’s performance at the competition.
27.Which of the following best describes Tzortzoglou
A.Confident and outgoing. B.Literary and childlike.
C.Generous and creative. D.Active and inspiring.
C
More than half the world’s population are city residents, and, by 2050, the United Nations predicts that seven in ten people will be. Architects are having to consider how architecture influences our emotional well-being in urban settings.
According to Colin Ellard, a research psychologist at Waterloo University, Canada, there is a lot of evidence which shows “the profound impact that the design of buildings has on how we feel, how we treat one another, and our overall psychological well-being”. A study from the University of Heidelberg concluded that people raised in the countryside are less likely to have mental disorders than those raised in the city. The city of Vancouver in Canada, which is surrounded by mountains and ocean, recognises the need to connect with nature. It has included protecting ocean and mountain views in its urban planning guidelines. For example, tall buildings are set up in strategic locations that don’t block scenic views for downtown residents.
The British designer Thomas Heatherwick wants to make architecture less soulless and boring. He told The Guardian, “We need to fearlessly demand interestingness and make buildings that enrich our senses.” He has listed seven characteristics of a boring building. These include being too flat and straight. He says lack of depth means light and shadow cannot play on surfaces, while straight lines are at odds with nature and make buildings dull.
However, making buildings interesting is not always easy, as architect Rafael Vinoly found out in 2013 when he created the 37-store y skyscraper in London. The building was admired for its curved exterior walls covered in reflective glass. However, it acted like a magnifying glass and reflected light which melted nearby cars and almost set fire to a carpet. A screen had to be added to prevent the building causing further damage.
So, for your own well-being, surround yourself with buildings that bring you joy, and ideally a view of nature.
28.Why are tall buildings located in certain places in Vancouver
A.To protect people’s mental health. B.To follow the tradition of the city.
C.To caution people against disorder. D.To reveal the prosperity of the area.
29.Which kind of building is Thomas’ preference
A.One with straight lines. B.One having flat surfaces.
C.One having a security system. D.One with innovative patterns.
30.What did Rafael Vinoly fail to consider in his design
A.Boldness. B.Creativity. C.Practicality. D.Flexibility.
31.What is the purpose of the passage
A.To call on people to live in big cities.
B.To compare buildings in different cities.
C.To stress the importance of healthy emotion.
D.To convince people of emotional impact by buildings.
D
While some allergies (过敏症) disappear over time or with treatment, others last a lifetime. For decades, scientists have been searching for the source of these lifetime allergies.
Recently, researchers found that memory B cells may be involved. These cells produce a different class of antibodies known as IgG, which ward off viral infections. But no one had identified exactly which of those cells were recalling allergens or how they switched to making the IgE antibodies responsible for allergies. To uncover the mysterious cells, two research teams took a deep dive into the immune (免疫的) cells of people with allergies and some without.
Immunologist Joshua Koenig and colleagues examined more than 90, 000 memory B cells from six people with birch allergies, four people allergic to dust mites and five people with no allergies. Using a technique called RNA sequencing, the team identified specific memory B cells, which they named MBC2s that make antibodies and proteins associated with the immune response that causes allergies.
In another experiment, Koenig and colleagues used a peanut protein to go fishing for memory B cells from people with peanut allergies. The team pulled out the same type of cells found in people with birch and dust mite allergies. In people with peanut allergies, those cells increased in number and produced IgE antibodies as the people started treatment to desensitize them to peanut allergens.
Another group led by Maria Curotto de Lafaille, an immunologist at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, also found that similar cells were more plentiful in 58 children allergic to peanuts than in 13 kids without allergies. The team found that the cells are ready to switch from making protective IgG antibodies to allergy-causing IgE antibodies. Even before the switch, the cells were making RNA for IgE but didn’t produce the protein. Making that RNA enables the cells to switch the type of antibodies they make when they encounter allergens. The signal to switch partially depends on a protein called JAK, the group discovered. “Stopping JAK from sending the signal could help prevent the memory cells from switching to IgE production,” Lafaille says. She also predicts that allergists may be able to examine aspects of these memory cells to forecast whether a patient's allergy is likely to last or disappear with time or treatment.
“Knowing which population of cells store allergies in long-term memory may eventually help scientists identify other ways to kill the allergy cells,” says Cecilia Berin, an immunologist at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “You could potentially get rid of not only your peanut allergy but also all of your allergies.”
32.Why did scientists investigate the immune cells of individuals with and without allergies
A.To explore the distinctions between IgG and IgE.
B.To uncover new antibodies known as IgG and IgE.
C.To identify cells responsible for defending against allergies.
D.To reveal cells associated with the development of allergies.
33.What does the word “desensitize” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A.Make. . . less destructive. B.Make. . . less responsive.
C.Make. . . less protective. D.Make. . . less effective.
34.What can we learn from the two research teams’ work
A.MBC2s make antibodies and proteins that prevent allergies.
B.Memory B cells generate both RNA for IgE and the corresponding protein.
C.JAK plays a role in controlling antibody production when exposed to allergens.
D.Allergists are capable of predicting whether an allergy will last or disappear.
35.Which could be the best title for the passage
A.RNA Sequencing Is Applied in Immunology Research
B.Specific Cells Related to Peanut Allergies Are Identified
C.Unmasking Cells’ Identities Helps Diagnose and Treat Allergies
D.Newfound Immune Cells Are Responsible for Long-lasting Allergies

When I suggested my 13-year-old try tennis, she quickly shot me down. “I’m not 41 , so stop trying to get me to do sports,” Julianna said.

I started by hitting a ball over the net, and Julianna took a big swing and 49 . We repeated this several more times. I resisted the 50 to tell her she was 51 the racket too close to the neck or to step more into her forehand. We just repeated the 52 of me hitting the ball and her missing it a few times before she finally got it back over the net. “This is fun,” she said with a mixture of surprise and joy and then she smiled 53 .
Now we always find time to play tennis. We’re both eager for an activity that can 54 tensions between us in daily life. It’s nice to have a place where both of us can release our 55 feelings and let them go.

My legs and arms were shaking. Sweat was tripping down my face. Every step felt like thousands of needles were sinking into my legs. I couldn’t take it. By that time I had got three blisters (水泡) on each foot. It felt like I was in Sahara!
It was discovery week. Grade eight was visiting Altai for a week. We lived in camps near the river. Now we were going up the mountain called The Devil’s Finger. But the mountain was only getting steeper (陡的). Most of the people were already on the top, screaming, laughing and taking selfies. Then I realized I had left my hat on the bus and I felt even worse. I touched my head. It was warm, but I couldn’t do anything about it.
Most of my friends were up the hill cheering me on. “Pointless!” I told them. “I can’t go any faster!” They looked at me and laughed. “They have got to be kidding me! Are they doing it on purpose ”
I was making my way slowly up the mountain. My feet stepped on something. I thought it was a rock, but whatever. The rock slipped from under my boot and went tumbling down the mountain. I lost my balance and fell on the ground. “Are you OK ” I heard a voice behind me. “Just tired. I’m taking a break.” I didn’t want to say that I fell.
There were only eight people behind me by that time. I decided to speed up because I didn’t want to be the last one up. I looked up. Yana was already on the top, waving to me. “It’s like she isn’t tired at all,” I thought to myself. The sun was behind her so I could barely see her face. Actually, no. I could see a huge smile on her face. She was shouting something, but I couldn’t hear it. I decided that the rest of the way up I would not stop to take any breaks.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
However, my body wasn’t listening and I sunk to the ground again.

W: Wow, I’ve never known you to be this organized. You’re very serious about losing weight, aren’t you
M: I am. And I’m happy to say it’s working.
W: Oh, really
M: Yes, I’ve lost six kilos since I started at the beginning of the year. I weighed 95 kilos when I started in January.
W: That’s amazing. And in only 4 months, have you been exercising too
M: Yes, I used to take the bus to work, and now I ride a bike instead.
W: That’s really great. Maybe I should try to learn from you.
M: You don’t need to lose any weight.
W: I may be slim. I eat way too much junk food. I drive everywhere even when it would be easy to walk.
M: Well, I can lend you the book that inspired me.
W: That would be great. Thanks.

【原文】
Hi, everyone! This is the monthly meeting of our club. We’ve been fortunate to have got good advice from some famous athletes on how to improve our skills and build up our body. Today, we’ll hear something different. We’re honored to have Emma Wilson here. Emma is a health expert and lecturer from UBC, the University of British Columbia. Emma worked for a football team in Manchester, then for a very successful rugby team in Dublin, and finally ended up working here in Vancouver. Emma says it’s challenging to be a health expert, because people can be easily influenced by advertisements that lack scientific support. Also, people aren’t willing to change their views about food and nutrition, as there is so much confusing information online. It’s really important to hear what experts say, and that’s why we’ve invited Emma here. She isn’t going to tell us about everything we should eat, but she will teach us to make better choices. Let’s welcome Emma Wilson.

When she worked in banking, Irini Tzortzoglou’s idea of cooking was to pick up a ready meal from Marks &Spencer on her way home, and put it in the oven (烤箱). But now, since winning the BBC cooking competition Master Chef at the age of 60, with menus inspired by her Greek heritage (遗产), food has become her life and new career.
She had not been overly interested in cooking, though as a child, food was an important part of her life. Tzortzoglou, 64, was born in Greece, where her grandparents’ house was always open, and her grandmother would often be cooking for dozens of people. Tzortzoglou would help out: “I loved the smells. I loved the processes.”
Tzortzoglou felt very bored after retiring. Then one day her husband said, “Why don’t you try Master Chef because you always love watching it.”
She was a reasonably good cook, who loved entertaining and could put together a decent dinner party menu but competing on the show demanded a whole new skill level. “I didn’t want to embarrass myself by leaving in round one, so I trained myself for a year,” she said.
She put in time, effort and money. She went to Athens to see what was happening with Greek food today. She ate at Michelin-star restaurants to see what Greek Master Chef and the young chefs were doing. And then she started practicing. She also started physical training because she could see how tough it was to run around the kitchen while filming, or stand for hours.
Since her win, Tzortzoglou has become immersed in (沉浸于) Greek food, and has written a cookery book, Under the Olive Tree. “I don’t have free time, but I love it,” she said. “I feel like a child let loose in a sweet shop.”
24.What was Tzortzoglou like as a child
A.She liked watching BBC programs. B.She studied hard to become a banker.
C.She showed some interest in cooking. D.She had to cook for the whole family.
25.Why did Tzortzoglou take part in Master Chef
A.To pursue a new career. B.To experience a decent party.
C.To have a full life. D.To preserve the heritage of her homeland.
26.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A.Tzortzoglou’s love for Greek food. B.Tzortzoglou’s effort to win the competition.
C.Tzortzoglou’s desire to go back to Athens. D.Tzortzoglou’s performance at the competition.
27.Which of the following best describes Tzortzoglou
A.Confident and outgoing. B.Literary and childlike.
C.Generous and creative. D.Active and inspiring.
【答案】24.C 25.C 26.B 27.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了Tzortzoglou从银行退休后参加烹饪比赛并获奖,现在美食已经成为她的生活和新职业。
24.细节理解题。根据第二自然段“Tzortzoglou, 64, was born in Greece, where her grandparents’ house was always open, and her grandmother would often be cooking for dozens of people. Tzortzoglou would help out: “I loved the smells. I loved the processes.” (64岁的Tzortzoglou出生在希腊,她祖父母的房子总是开放的,她的祖母经常为几十个人做饭。Tzortzoglou会帮忙:“我喜欢这些气味。我喜欢这些过程。”)”可知,Tzortzoglou小时候对烹饪表现出了一定的兴趣。故选C。
25.细节理解题。根据第三自然段“Tzortzoglou felt very bored after retiring. Then one day her husband said, “Why don’t you try Master Chef because you always love watching it.”(Tzortzoglou退休后感到非常无聊。然后有一天,她的丈夫说:“你为什么不试试《主厨大师》,因为你总是喜欢看。”)”可知,因为无聊的退休生活,Tzortzoglou参加《主厨大师》比赛。所以,她参加比赛是为了充实生活。故选C。
26.主旨大意题。根据第五自然段“She put in time, effort and money. She went to Athens to see what was happening with Greek food today. She ate at Michelin-star restaurants to see what Greek Master Chef and the young chefs were doing. And then she started practicing. She also started physical training because she could see how tough it was to run around the kitchen while filming, or stand for hours. (她投入了时间、精力和金钱。她去了雅典,想看看今天希腊食物的情况。她在米其林星级餐厅用餐,看看希腊主厨和年轻的厨师们在做什么。然后她开始练习。她还开始了体能训练,因为她可以看到在拍摄时在厨房里跑来跑去,或者站上几个小时是多么困难。)”可知,第5段的主要介绍了Tzortzoglou为赢得比赛所做的努力。故选B。
27.推理判断题。根据前文所描述的Tzortzoglou参加烹饪比赛以及最后一段“Since her win, Tzortzoglou has become immersed in (沉浸于) Greek food, and has written a cookery book, Under the Olive Tree. “I don’t have free time, but I love it,” she said. “I feel like a child let loose in a sweet shop.”(自从获胜后,特佐格鲁就沉浸在希腊美食中,并写了一本烹饪书《橄榄树下》。“我没有空闲时间,但我喜欢,”她说。“我感觉自己就像一个在糖果店里被放任自流的孩子。”)”可以看出,64岁的Tzortzoglou积极而又鼓舞人心。故选D。
C
More than half the world’s population are city residents, and, by 2050, the United Nations predicts that seven in ten people will be. Architects are having to consider how architecture influences our emotional well-being in urban settings.
According to Colin Ellard, a research psychologist at Waterloo University, Canada, there is a lot of evidence which shows “the profound impact that the design of buildings has on how we feel, how we treat one another, and our overall psychological well-being”. A study from the University of Heidelberg concluded that people raised in the countryside are less likely to have mental disorders than those raised in the city. The city of Vancouver in Canada, which is surrounded by mountains and ocean, recognises the need to connect with nature. It has included protecting ocean and mountain views in its urban planning guidelines. For example, tall buildings are set up in strategic locations that don’t block scenic views for downtown residents.
The British designer Thomas Heatherwick wants to make architecture less soulless and boring. He told The Guardian, “We need to fearlessly demand interestingness and make buildings that enrich our senses.” He has listed seven characteristics of a boring building. These include being too flat and straight. He says lack of depth means light and shadow cannot play on surfaces, while straight lines are at odds with nature and make buildings dull.
However, making buildings interesting is not always easy, as architect Rafael Vinoly found out in 2013 when he created the 37-store y skyscraper in London. The building was admired for its curved exterior walls covered in reflective glass. However, it acted like a magnifying glass and reflected light which melted nearby cars and almost set fire to a carpet. A screen had to be added to prevent the building causing further damage.
So, for your own well-being, surround yourself with buildings that bring you joy, and ideally a view of nature.
28.Why are tall buildings located in certain places in Vancouver
A.To protect people’s mental health. B.To follow the tradition of the city.
C.To caution people against disorder. D.To reveal the prosperity of the area.
29.Which kind of building is Thomas’ preference
A.One with straight lines. B.One having flat surfaces.
C.One having a security system. D.One with innovative patterns.
30.What did Rafael Vinoly fail to consider in his design
A.Boldness. B.Creativity. C.Practicality. D.Flexibility.
31.What is the purpose of the passage
A.To call on people to live in big cities.
B.To compare buildings in different cities.
C.To stress the importance of healthy emotion.
D.To convince people of emotional impact by buildings.
【答案】28.A 29.D 30.C 31.D
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要围绕建筑物对人们情感健康的影响进行阐述,通过引用研究结果和具体案例来支持观点,并提出了一些建筑设计的原则和建议。
28.细节理解题。根据第二段“According to Colin Ellard, a research psychologist at Waterloo University, Canada, there is a lot of evidence which shows “the profound impact that the design of buildings has on how we feel, how we treat one another, and our overall psychological well-being”.

The city of Vancouver in Canada, which is surrounded by mountains and ocean, recognises the need to connect with nature. It has included protecting ocean and mountain views in its urban planning guidelines. For example, tall buildings are set up in strategic locations that don’t block scenic views for downtown residents.(加拿大滑铁卢大学的研究心理学家科林·埃拉德(Colin Ellard)表示,有大量证据表明,“建筑的设计对我们的感受、对待他人的方式以及我们的整体心理健康都有深远的影响”。海德堡大学的一项研究得出结论,在农村长大的人比在城市长大的人患精神障碍的可能性要小。加拿大的温哥华市四面环山和海洋,认识到与自然联系的必要性。它已将保护海洋和山景纳入其城市规划指南。例如,高层建筑建在不妨碍市中心居民欣赏风景的战略位置)”可知,温哥华的高楼大厦位于确定的位置是为了保护人们的心理健康。故选A项。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段“The British designer Thomas Heatherwick wants to make architecture less soulless and boring. He told The Guardian, “We need to fearlessly demand interestingness and make buildings that enrich our senses.” He has listed seven characteristics of a boring building. These include being too flat and straight. He says lack of depth means light and shadow cannot play on surfaces, while straight lines are at odds with nature and make buildings dull.(英国设计师Thomas Heatherwick想让建筑不那么没有灵魂和无聊。他在接受《卫报》采访时表示:“我们需要无畏地要求趣味性,让建筑丰富我们的感官。”他列出了无趣建筑的七个特征。包括太平太直。他说,缺乏深度意味着光线和阴影无法在表面上发挥作用,而直线与自然格格不入,使建筑物变得沉闷)”可知,托马斯喜欢有趣和有灵魂的建筑,也就是有创新的。故选D项。
30.推理判断题。根据第四段“However, making buildings interesting is not always easy, as architect Rafael Vinoly found out in 2013 when he created the 37-store y skyscraper in London. The building was admired for its curved exterior walls covered in reflective glass. However, it acted like a magnifying glass and reflected light which melted nearby cars and almost set fire to a carpet. A screen had to be added to prevent the building causing further damage.(然而,让建筑变得有趣并不总是那么容易,正如建筑师拉斐尔·维诺里(Rafael Vinoly)在2013年在伦敦设计了这座拥有37家商店的摩天大楼时发现的那样。这座建筑因其覆盖着反光玻璃的弯曲外墙而受到赞赏。然而,它的作用就像一个放大镜,反射的光融化了附近的汽车,几乎点燃了地毯。为了防止建筑物造成进一步的破坏,必须加一块屏风)”可知,建筑师Rafael Vinoly在设计37层高的摩天大楼时没有考虑到实用性,导致建筑物反射光线像放大镜一样,融化了附近的汽车并差点引起火灾。故选C项。
31.推理判断题。根据第一段“More than half the world’s population are city residents, and, by 2050, the United Nations predicts that seven in ten people will be. Architects are having to consider how architecture influences our emotional well-being in urban settings.(世界上一半以上的人口是城市居民,联合国预测,到2050年,每十个人中将有七个人是城市居民。建筑师们不得不考虑建筑如何在城市环境中影响我们的情感健康)”以及最后一段“So, for your own well-being, surround yourself with buildings that bring you joy, and ideally a view of nature.(所以,为了你自己的幸福,让你周围的建筑能给你带来快乐,最好是能看到大自然)”可知,文章第一段明确指出,建筑师们需要考虑建筑在城市环境中对我们的情感健康产生的影响,而文章最后一段也强调要让自己生活在能带来快乐的建筑物中。因此,本文的目的是要说服人们认识到建筑物对我们的情感健康产生的影响。故选D项。
D
While some allergies (过敏症) disappear over time or with treatment, others last a lifetime. For decades, scientists have been searching for the source of these lifetime allergies.
Recently, researchers found that memory B cells may be involved. These cells produce a different class of antibodies known as IgG, which ward off viral infections. But no one had identified exactly which of those cells were recalling allergens or how they switched to making the IgE antibodies responsible for allergies. To uncover the mysterious cells, two research teams took a deep dive into the immune (免疫的) cells of people with allergies and some without.
Immunologist Joshua Koenig and colleagues examined more than 90, 000 memory B cells from six people with birch allergies, four people allergic to dust mites and five people with no allergies. Using a technique called RNA sequencing, the team identified specific memory B cells, which they named MBC2s that make antibodies and proteins associated with the immune response that causes allergies.
In another experiment, Koenig and colleagues used a peanut protein to go fishing for memory B cells from people with peanut allergies. The team pulled out the same type of cells found in people with birch and dust mite allergies. In people with peanut allergies, those cells increased in number and produced IgE antibodies as the people started treatment to desensitize them to peanut allergens.
Another group led by Maria Curotto de Lafaille, an immunologist at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, also found that similar cells were more plentiful in 58 children allergic to peanuts than in 13 kids without allergies. The team found that the cells are ready to switch from making protective IgG antibodies to allergy-causing IgE antibodies. Even before the switch, the cells were making RNA for IgE but didn’t produce the protein. Making that RNA enables the cells to switch the type of antibodies they make when they encounter allergens. The signal to switch partially depends on a protein called JAK, the group discovered. “Stopping JAK from sending the signal could help prevent the memory cells from switching to IgE production,” Lafaille says. She also predicts that allergists may be able to examine aspects of these memory cells to forecast whether a patient's allergy is likely to last or disappear with time or treatment.
“Knowing which population of cells store allergies in long-term memory may eventually help scientists identify other ways to kill the allergy cells,” says Cecilia Berin, an immunologist at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. “You could potentially get rid of not only your peanut allergy but also all of your allergies.”
32.Why did scientists investigate the immune cells of individuals with and without allergies
A.To explore the distinctions between IgG and IgE.
B.To uncover new antibodies known as IgG and IgE.
C.To identify cells responsible for defending against allergies.
D.To reveal cells associated with the development of allergies.
33.What does the word “desensitize” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A.Make. . . less destructive. B.Make. . . less responsive.
C.Make. . . less protective. D.Make. . . less effective.
34.What can we learn from the two research teams’ work
A.MBC2s make antibodies and proteins that prevent allergies.
B.Memory B cells generate both RNA for IgE and the corresponding protein.
C.JAK plays a role in controlling antibody production when exposed to allergens.
D.Allergists are capable of predicting whether an allergy will last or disappear.
35.Which could be the best title for the passage
A.RNA Sequencing Is Applied in Immunology Research
B.Specific Cells Related to Peanut Allergies Are Identified
C.Unmasking Cells’ Identities Helps Diagnose and Treat Allergies
D.Newfound Immune Cells Are Responsible for Long-lasting Allergies
【答案】32.D 33.B 34.C 35.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文,本文主要讲述两个研究小组为了揭示与发生过敏有关的细胞进行研究,最终确定了特定的记忆B细胞。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段中“But no one had identified exactly which of those cells were recalling allergens or how they switched to making the IgE antibodies responsible for allergies. To uncover the mysterious cells, two research teams took a deep dive into the immune (免疫的) cells of people with allergies and some without.(但是没有人确切地确定哪些细胞会召回过敏原,或者它们是如何转变为产生导致过敏的IgE抗体的。为了揭开这些神秘的细胞,两个研究小组深入研究了过敏人群和非过敏人群的免疫细胞)”可知,科学家研究过敏和没有过敏的个体的免疫细胞是为了揭示与发生过敏有关的细胞,故选D。
33.词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Using a technique called RNA sequencing, the team identified specific memory B cells, which they named MBC2s that make antibodies and proteins associated with the immune response that causes allergies.(利用一种名为RNA测序的技术,研究小组确定了特定的记忆B细胞,他们将其命名为MBC2s,这些细胞产生与导致过敏的免疫反应相关的抗体和蛋白质)”可知,记忆B细胞会产生与导致过敏的免疫反应相关的抗体和蛋白质,结合划线词前“those cells increased in number and produced IgE antibodies(这些细胞的数量增加并产生IgE抗体)”可知,记忆B细胞数量增加并产生抗体,说明不再过敏,desensitize意为“使……不再过敏”符合题意,故选B。
34.推理判断题。根据第五段中“The team found that the cells are ready to switch from making protective IgG antibodies to allergy-causing IgE antibodies. Even before the switch, the cells were making RNA for IgE but didn’t produce the protein. Making that RNA enables the cells to switch the type of antibodies they make when they encounter allergens. The signal to switch partially depends on a protein called JAK, the group discovered.(研究小组发现,这些细胞已经准备好从产生保护性的IgG抗体转变为引起过敏的IgE抗体。即使在转换之前,细胞也在为IgE制造RNA,但不产生蛋白质。小组发现,制造这种RNA可以使细胞在遇到过敏原时转换抗体的类型。转换信号部分取决于一种叫做JAK的蛋白质)”可知,当暴露于过敏原时,JAK在控制抗体产生中起作用,故选C。
35.主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第一段中“For decades, scientists have been searching for the source of these lifetime allergies.(几十年来,科学家们一直在寻找这些终生过敏的来源)”以及第二段中“Recently, researchers found that memory B cells may be involved.(最近,研究人员发现记忆B细胞可能参与其中)”可知,本文主要讲述两个研究小组为了揭示与发生过敏有关的细胞进行研究,最终确定了特定的记忆B细胞,D项“新发现的免疫细胞是造成长期过敏的原因”为最佳标题,故选D。

The holidays can be a difficult time to stay on track with your fitness goals. 36 . Even the most disciplined people can find it difficult to stick to their fitness routines during the holiday season. Here are some expert-recommended tips that can help you stay on track.
37 .
Planning is the best way to make sure you don’t lose track of your goals. Plan your workouts for the week and mark them in your schedule to assure they are a part of your day.
Exercise early.
38 . Make sure workouts are in the morning and you’ll set yourself up for a productive day. Then you can enjoy holiday activities and time with family without worrying about when you’ll have time to exercise.
Keep moving.
Research shows that getting up for just five minutes every 30 to 60 minutes and performing light activities reduces the risk of heart disease risk factors. Small efforts to get moving can help your overall health during the holidays. In addition to staying active, try to avoid sitting for long periods of time, such as when watching football games or eating. 39 .
Think out of the box.
The holidays are busy, but do your best to avoid the “all or nothing” mentality when it comes to physical activity. 40 — like taking a family walk around the neighborhood before opening Christmas presents.
A.Plan ahead
B.Plan independently
C.Exercising in the morning is one of the biggest tips
D.Remember: too much sitting is harmful to your health
E.Your schedule will be filled with family gatherings and celebrations
F.Get creative with exercise and make physical activity a family affair
G.Rather than skipping the gym altogether, make time for a quick workout
【答案】36.E 37.A 38.C 39.D 40.F
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了就算在假期很难坚持自己健身计划时,也能帮助自己保持状态的四个方法。
36.前文提到“The holidays can be a difficult time to stay on track with your fitness goals.”(假期可能是一段很难坚持健身目标的时间。)以及后文提到“Even the most disciplined people can find it difficult to stick to their fitness routines during the holiday season. ”(即使是最自律的人也很难在假期坚持自己的健身计划。)由此判断,该段提到在假期期间坚持健身计划很难,E项“Your schedule will be filled with family gatherings and celebrations”(你的日程表将被家庭聚会和庆祝活动填满。)该项提到了假期会因为一些活动而影响自己的健身计划。该项符合文意,起到承上启下的作用。故选E。
37.该空处需选择段落小标题。该段提到“Planning is the best way to make sure you don’t lose track of your goals.”(计划是确保你不会迷失目标的最好方法。)该段提到如果做好计划的话就可以保证假期内能够正常进行健身锻炼。A项“Plan ahead”(提前计划)该项提到了提前做好计划,引出后文中提前做好计划的好处。该项符合文意,起到承上启下的作用。故选A。
38.该段小标题提到“Exercise early”(早点锻炼)以及后文提到“Make sure workouts are in the morning and you’ll set yourself up for a productive day.”(确保在早上锻炼,这样你就会为高效的一天做好准备。)由此判断,该段提到了在早上锻炼的好处,因此该段段首句应该提到早上锻炼是非常重要的。C项“Exercising in the morning is one of the biggest tips”(早上锻炼是最重要的建议之一。)该项提到了早上锻炼是这几项建议中最重要的。该项符合文意,起到承上启下的作用。故选C。
39.前文提到“In addition to staying active, try to avoid sitting for long periods of time, such as when watching football games or eating.”(除了保持活跃,尽量避免长时间坐着,比如在看足球比赛或吃饭的时候。)该段提到了如果要保持健身计划的话就要避免长期坐着。D项提到“Remember: too much sitting is harmful to your health”(记住:久坐对你的健康有害。)该项提到了长时间坐着对于健康的伤害。该项符合文意,起到总结上文的作用。故选D。

第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题:每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
When I suggested my 13-year-old try tennis, she quickly shot me down. “I’m not 41 , so stop trying to get me to do sports,” Julianna said. I suggested it because some of my recent happiest memories were of playing ping-pong with her. Tennis seemed like a natural progression from ping-pong and a great way to 42 some of her growing teen worries on a larger playing field. But my suggestion was always met with 43 .
Still, I was undiscouraged. I was convinced that 44 some physical energy would help Julianna. I’ve seen how sports help deal with stress. It 45 for me when I was a teenage girl.
Midway through summer, we stayed at home one afternoon, really bored. “Do you want to play tennis ” I asked. “Sure,” she said.

【A possible version】
Dear Mr. Smith,
I am writing to you representing the English Club. We are thrilled to have you as part of our school community. To help you settle in quickly, I'd like to share some key points about living in China.
Firstly, In China, certain topics like politics are considered taboo. So, it's important to respect these boundaries to maintain a harmonious environment. Secondly, physical contact is generally less common here than in some Western cultures. Hugging, especially with someone of the opposite sex, can be seen as inappropriate unless you have a close relationship with the person.
A great tip for you. Try to attend festivals, visit museums, and try to engage with the community, which can help you learn more about Chinese traditions and make lasting connections. We wish you a wonderful and enriching stay in China.
Warm regards,
Li Hua
(English Club Director)

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。
My legs and arms were shaking. Sweat was tripping down my face. Every step felt like thousands of needles were sinking into my legs. I couldn’t take it. By that time I had got three blisters (水泡) on each foot. It felt like I was in Sahara!
It was discovery week. Grade eight was visiting Altai for a week. We lived in camps near the river. Now we were going up the mountain called The Devil’s Finger. But the mountain was only getting steeper (陡的). Most of the people were already on the top, screaming, laughing and taking selfies. Then I realized I had left my hat on the bus and I felt even worse. I touched my head. It was warm, but I couldn’t do anything about it.
Most of my friends were up the hill cheering me on. “Pointless!” I told them. “I can’t go any faster!” They looked at me and laughed. “They have got to be kidding me! Are they doing it on purpose ”
I was making my way slowly up the mountain. My feet stepped on something. I thought it was a rock, but whatever. The rock slipped from under my boot and went tumbling down the mountain. I lost my balance and fell on the ground. “Are you OK ” I heard a voice behind me. “Just tired. I’m taking a break.” I didn’t want to say that I fell.
There were only eight people behind me by that time. I decided to speed up because I didn’t want to be the last one up. I looked up. Yana was already on the top, waving to me. “It’s like she isn’t tired at all,” I thought to myself. The sun was behind her so I could barely see her face. Actually, no. I could see a huge smile on her face. She was shouting something, but I couldn’t hear it. I decided that the rest of the way up I would not stop to take any breaks.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;

【答案】范文
However, my body wasn’t listening and I sunk to the ground again. It was too hot and my lips were dried. I reached for my water bottle. My blisters were killing me and the pain was unbearable. My lungs felt like they were about to explode. However, I pushed myself to get up. The Devil’s Finger laughed at me with its steep incline, but I refused to give in. My friends’ cheers echoed in my ears, reminding me that I wasn’t alone. With each step, I felt like I was conquering not just the mountain, but my own fears and limitations. For a moment I felt a cool breeze.
Finally, I reached the top of the mountain. The view was breathtaking. I could see everything from this height. Giant clouds were rushing past me like ships on the ocean. At the same time, the sense of accomplishment was indescribable. Yana ran to hug me, her smile wider than ever. “You made it!” she shouted. I looked around at my friends, all celebrating our victory together. The exhaustion was worth it. I had proven to myself that with perseverance and determination, I could overcome any obstacle. The Devil’s Finger no longer seemed so terrible, and I felt a newfound strength in myself.
