Hody Childress , a farmer from Geraldine, Alabama, lived the last 10 years of his life with a little secret.
In the small town where he lived his entire life, Childress wanted to help his community. He knew there were families in his hometown that were struggling financially. So one day he pulled his local pharmacist (药剂师), Brooke Walker, to the side and asked, “Do you ever meet anybody who can’t pay for their medicine ” “Well, yeah, unfortunately , that happens a good bit,” Walker said. So Childress donated $100 to the local pharmacy for anyone who couldn’t afford to pay for medicine and said to Walker, “Next time that happens, you can use this. Don’t tell them where it came from, and don’t tell me who needed it.”
This act of generosity continued for nearly 10 years, up until his death in January 2023. And his story only came to light at his funeral, when his daughter, Tania Nix, wanted to show what kind of man her father was.
In fact, the 80-year-old only revealed his generosity to his daughter when he was unable to get to the pharmacy himself. He asked his daughter to take a $100 bill to the drugstore on the first day of the month. Nix continued to drop off the money to the pharmacy and didn’t tell anybody about what her dad was doing.
With her brother Doug, Nix shared, “It’s really hard for us to decide whether to allow this story out to the public, but I feel like a small deed (行为) can turn into a big deed—or it can turn into something that gives people hope. If it can encourage anyone to be a better person and want to help others, it’s worth it.”
According to the BBC, since the story was first published by the Washington Post, the pharmacy has received donations from all over the country.
24．What can be inferred from Walker’s words
A．Childress often fell ill and needed to take medicine.
B．Childress donated money to the local drugstore.
C．All people in Geraldine lived a good life.
D．Many people couldn’t pay for their medicine.
25．Which of the following can best describe Childress
A．Honest and brave. B．Generous and noble.
C．Humorous and open-minded. D．Independent and easy-going.
26．What can we know about Nix from the text
A．She wanted to make his father famous.
B．She held a different opinion about her father’s donation.
C．She followed her father’s example and also donated money.
D．She hesitated about the decision to spread her father’s secret.
27．What lesson can we conclude from the last two paragraphs
A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C．What goes around comes around. D．One good deed may lead to another.

Billions of people deal with a nail-biting habit at some point in their lives. Many will go to great lengths to try to stop. And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit we’d like to kick. So what’s the best way to break one
Research shows that intentions alone often fail to lead to long-term behavior change. This isn't to say you can’t break a habit. Rather, by understanding the basis of habits, you can create better plans for changing them. For example, we know habits are often affected by environments and routines. Lying in bed may cause you to endlessly scroll through your phone, or watching TV on the couch may lead you to grab a sugary snack.
One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day. Then try to modify them by changing your routine or creating obstacles that make it more difficult to perform the habit in that space. Moving, switching jobs, or even starting a new schedule, are particularly great times to break a habit or build a new one.
One 2005 study tracked university students’ exercising, reading, and TV-watching habits before and after they transferred schools. When students were no longer around old environments and routines, their habits, even the strong ones, significantly changed.
For behaviors like nail-biting, a practice called habit reversal training can be helpful. Developed by psychologists in the 1970s, the aim is to change a habit by replacing it with another one that’s less detrimental. The training requires you to analyze and understand your habit cues, so you can effectively step in at the right times. For example, if you tend to bite your nails at work, keep a fidget toy at your desk in advance. Then, if a stressful email comes in, use the toy when you feel the urge to bite your nails.
Breaking a habit takes time, so remember to give yourself grace and have patience through the process.
28．Why does the author mention “a nail-biting habit” in Para.1
A．To make a comparison. B．To make a conclusion.
C．To introduce the topic. D．To attract readers' attention.
29．What is the best way to help us control our action
A．Having intentions alone. B．Understanding the basis of habits.
C．Making practical plans. D．Adapting the environments or times.
30．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Para.5 probably mean
A．Harmful. B．Helpful. C．Annoying. D．Time-consuming.
31．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Difficulties in dealing with nail-biting. B．Significance of habit reversal training.
C．Useful tips on getting rid of a habit. D．Necessity of having grace and patience.
D
Finland’s system for returning drink containers started in the 1950s, and today almost every bottle and can is recycled. Convenience is the cornerstone of the system’s success.
Nowadays there are almost 5,000 container-return machines across Finland. Most of them are located in the same shops that sell drinks, making returning them a convenient part of people’s routine. Hotels, restaurants, offices, schools and event organizers return containers through their drink providers.
The return machines are easy to use. You place a bottle or can on a set of mini conveyor belts at the front of the machine. They carry it past a scanner and out of sight. The machine sorts the bottles and crushes the cans. When you’re done, you press a button and the machine gives you a receipt. Plastic bottles are worth 20 to 40 cents, depending on their size, while glass bottles are worth 10 to 40 cents and aluminium (铝) cans are 15 cents. The returned containers are recycled or the materials are reused. Across Finland, on average, every Finn returns 373 items in a year: 251 aluminium cans, 98 plastic bottles and 24 glass bottles.
The government has entrusted this function to the private agency. “Palpa is completely nonprofit and receives no government funding,” says Tommi Vihavainen, Palpa’s director of producer services, ICT and communication.
Russia, the UK and other countries have shown interest in the Finnish system. “Most visitors want to see how the return system works in Finland,” says Vihavainen. “We don’t act as consultants, but we’re proud to present our system.”
32．What do we know about Finland’s system for returning drink containers
A．It still has a long way to develop. B．It gains popularity for its convenience.
C．It used to be fashionable but now out-dated. D．It’s supported financially by the government.
33．Why does the writer use the figures in paragraph 3
A．To show Finns consume various drinks. B．To help make the story more interesting.
C．To make the impact of the system convincing. D．To guarantee the proper logic of the passage.
34．What’s Vihavainen’s attitude towards the return system
A．Indifferent. B．Positive. C．Pessimistic. D．Dismissive.
35．What is the passage mainly about
A．Finland’s recycling programme keeps bottles off streets.
B．The return machines in the world are popular and easy.
C．Palpa—a complete nonprofit to recycle the bottles.
D．Finland—a country free of waste such as bottles.

Digital art is becoming increasingly popular among many artists. 36 Then, after learning the basics of digital art and getting plenty of practice, you’ll be well on your way to excelling at digital drawing.
37 Don’t add too much detail such as fur or clothing texture. Place your drawing face down on the scanner (扫描仪). Close the scanner and then start the scan. Name the file once it’s finished scanning and save it as a PNG or JPEG for the highest quality.
Then make layers (图层). 38 So first, create a background layer by hitting the new layer button, and using the fill-in tool to fill the transparent layer in white. Then drag that layer to the bottom, so that it’s the first layer of the drawing. Multiple layers allow for more detail and flexibility without the risk of messing up the entire piece.
On each layer you’ve created, start outlining the sketch (草图) with the brush tool. 39 In this step you can also fix any mistakes that you made while sketching. After you’ve outlined your drawing, you’ll need to sketch out the colors of your drawing. Use brushes of varying sizes, depending on how big of an area you’re filling in, and color in all the different sections of your drawing. Just use a single color for each area, like the face, hair, and each article of clothing. 40 When finished, be sure to merge (合并) all the layers. Save a copy of the file so that you can go back and work on it later if you choose.
A．Draw your idea on paper.
B．Right now your draft is the only layer in the file.
C．The outline will make things easier to color later on.
D．Think about what you want to create before you work on it.
E．The more layers you add, the better the drawing will look.
F．Besides, you can add more layers and have more detail polished.
G．To make digital art, you first need a computer and a program for digital drawing.

Standing on the shore of a lake, I can’t help but feel surprised at the thousands of small rocks that surround my boots. They were all created from hard surfaces, their edges softening over time. I wonder, “Can we learn from a pile of 41 ”
Even the tallest mountains have 42 ; none are as tall as they were 1,000 years ago. And much like a rock, I’ve found my 43 has softened and my desire to better understand others has expanded with each trip around the sun.
44 , I was also a sharp rock covered in pointy edges. Today, after decades of the waters of life coursing over me, my edges are softer and and I’m more 45 . I’m less likely to judge and more interested in learning how we can 46 together.
But I’m not a rock. I’m a 47 filled with all the drama built into my DNA．
Two years ago, while traveling in the Pacific Northwest, I watched a restaurant owner ask several young men to 48 for not wearing masks. Not 49 and not rude. On the door read a sign, “Please wear a mask before entering our restaurant. We don’t like it either, but let’s all do what we can to 50 this together.”
The group of young men wanted to 51 about the note. I sat at the restaurant watching, understanding both sides. I’ve been one of them before, using my youthful edges to chip away at the world. What I lost, 52 , was the ability to grow from 53 by looking through the eyes of others. In learning to be more 54 , I’ve also found more happiness and success.
You can fit more rounded rocks in a jar than those with sharp edges. The former look for ways to 55 and make room for others, while the latter never give an 56 to accommodate others.
57 , like the waters rolling against once sharp stones, changes us by washing away our resistance to 58 the world from someone else’s point of view.
I placed a 59 stone into my jacket pocket. Mother Nature is holding a 60 again.

【原文】
Good morning everyone. As you make a list of New Year’s resolutions, you will want to set yourself up for success. If healthy eating is one of your New Year’s resolutions, maybe you should try the Mediterranean diet. The Mediterranean diet was rated as the best overall diet of 2021. This is the fourth year in a row the diet has been ranked top. The Mediterranean diet is based on the eating habits in areas of southern Italy and parts of Greece, Spain and Morocco. It features plant-based foods like fruits and vegetables, whole grains and seeds, and has a heavy emphasis on good quality olive oil. That means the diet is rich in flavor but low in fat. In addition to helping people keep weight off, experts believe that the diet can reduce the risks of heart disease and high blood pressure. “Eating together” is part of the cultural identity of communities throughout the Mediterranean. In Mediterranean areas, it is a custom to eat at big tables, surrounded by family and friends. A meal can often last several hours. ”It’s more than a diet, it’s a healthy lifestyle,” said Rahaf Al Bochi, who teaches the Mediterranean diet to her clients.

Hody Childress , a farmer from Geraldine, Alabama, lived the last 10 years of his life with a little secret.
In the small town where he lived his entire life, Childress wanted to help his community. He knew there were families in his hometown that were struggling financially. So one day he pulled his local pharmacist (药剂师), Brooke Walker, to the side and asked, “Do you ever meet anybody who can’t pay for their medicine ” “Well, yeah, unfortunately , that happens a good bit,” Walker said. So Childress donated $100 to the local pharmacy for anyone who couldn’t afford to pay for medicine and said to Walker, “Next time that happens, you can use this. Don’t tell them where it came from, and don’t tell me who needed it.”
This act of generosity continued for nearly 10 years, up until his death in January 2023. And his story only came to light at his funeral, when his daughter, Tania Nix, wanted to show what kind of man her father was.
In fact, the 80-year-old only revealed his generosity to his daughter when he was unable to get to the pharmacy himself. He asked his daughter to take a $100 bill to the drugstore on the first day of the month. Nix continued to drop off the money to the pharmacy and didn’t tell anybody about what her dad was doing.
With her brother Doug, Nix shared, “It’s really hard for us to decide whether to allow this story out to the public, but I feel like a small deed (行为) can turn into a big deed—or it can turn into something that gives people hope. If it can encourage anyone to be a better person and want to help others, it’s worth it.”
According to the BBC, since the story was first published by the Washington Post, the pharmacy has received donations from all over the country.
24．What can be inferred from Walker’s words
A．Childress often fell ill and needed to take medicine.
B．Childress donated money to the local drugstore.
C．All people in Geraldine lived a good life.
D．Many people couldn’t pay for their medicine.
25．Which of the following can best describe Childress

26．What can we know about Nix from the text
A．She wanted to make his father famous.
B．She held a different opinion about her father’s donation.
C．She followed her father’s example and also donated money.
D．She hesitated about the decision to spread her father’s secret.
27．What lesson can we conclude from the last two paragraphs
A．Actions speak louder than words. B．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C．What goes around comes around. D．One good deed may lead to another.
【答案】24．D 25．B 26．D 27．D
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位心地善良且不图名利的老人默默地捐钱，为有需要的人支付医药费的故事。
24．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Do you ever meet anybody who can’t pay for their medicine (你见过付不起医药费的人吗？)”和“Well, yeah, unfortunately , that happens a good bit (是啊，不幸的是，这种事经常发生)”可知，有很多人付不起医药费。故选D。
25．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“So Childress donated $100 to the local pharmacy for anyone who couldn’t afford to pay for medicine and said to Walker, “Next time that happens, you can use this. Don’t tell them where it came from, and don’t tell me who needed it.” (因此，柴尔德里斯向当地的药房捐赠了100美元，帮助那些买不起药的人，并对沃克说：“下次遇到这种情况，你可以用这个。”不要告诉他们钱是从哪里来的，也不要告诉我是谁需要它。”)”可知，Childress捐钱为生活困难的人付医药费，他是一个慷慨大方的人，而他做好事不留名的做法也表明他是一个高尚的人。故选B。
26．推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“It’s really hard for us to decide whether to allow this story out to the public (我们真的很难决定是否让这个故事公布于众)”可推知，对于是否将父亲的善行义举公之于众，Nix曾经犹豫不决。故选D。
27．推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“I feel like a small deed (行为) can turn into a big deed (我觉得一件小事可以变成一件大事)”和最后一段的“since the story was first published by the Washington Post, the pharmacy has received donations from all over the country. (自从《华盛顿邮报》首次发表这篇报道以来，这家药店收到了来自全国各地的捐款。)”可推知，一件好事会带来另一件好事。故选D。

Billions of people deal with a nail-biting habit at some point in their lives. Many will go to great lengths to try to stop. And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit we’d like to kick. So what’s the best way to break one
Research shows that intentions alone often fail to lead to long-term behavior change. This isn't to say you can’t break a habit. Rather, by understanding the basis of habits, you can create better plans for changing them. For example, we know habits are often affected by environments and routines. Lying in bed may cause you to endlessly scroll through your phone, or watching TV on the couch may lead you to grab a sugary snack.
One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day. Then try to modify them by changing your routine or creating obstacles that make it more difficult to perform the habit in that space. Moving, switching jobs, or even starting a new schedule, are particularly great times to break a habit or build a new one.
One 2005 study tracked university students’ exercising, reading, and TV-watching habits before and after they transferred schools. When students were no longer around old environments and routines, their habits, even the strong ones, significantly changed.
For behaviors like nail-biting, a practice called habit reversal training can be helpful. Developed by psychologists in the 1970s, the aim is to change a habit by replacing it with another one that’s less detrimental. The training requires you to analyze and understand your habit cues, so you can effectively step in at the right times. For example, if you tend to bite your nails at work, keep a fidget toy at your desk in advance. Then, if a stressful email comes in, use the toy when you feel the urge to bite your nails.
Breaking a habit takes time, so remember to give yourself grace and have patience through the process.
28．Why does the author mention “a nail-biting habit” in Para.1
A．To make a comparison. B．To make a conclusion.
C．To introduce the topic. D．To attract readers' attention.
29．What is the best way to help us control our action
A．Having intentions alone. B．Understanding the basis of habits.
C．Making practical plans. D．Adapting the environments or times.
30．What does the underlined word “detrimental” in Para.5 probably mean
A．Harmful. B．Helpful. C．Annoying. D．Time-consuming.
31．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Difficulties in dealing with nail-biting. B．Significance of habit reversal training.
C．Useful tips on getting rid of a habit. D．Necessity of having grace and patience.
【答案】28．C 29．D 30．A 31．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些改变习惯的方法。
28．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Billions of people deal with a nail-biting habit at some point in their lives. Many will go to great lengths to try to stop. And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit we’d like to kick. So what’s the best way to break one (数十亿人在人生的某个阶段都有咬指甲的习惯。许多人会竭尽全力试图阻止。虽然不是所有人都是咬指甲的人，但我们大多数人都有一个想要改掉的习惯。那么打破它的最好方法是什么呢？)”可知，第一段以“咬指甲”这个坏习惯为例，引出文章主题即如何改掉习惯。故选C。
29．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One of the most effective ways to manage behavior is to identify these locations or times of day.(管理行为最有效的方法之一就是确定这些地点或时间。)”可知，管理行为最好的方法之一是确定时间或地点，即适应环境或时间。故选D。
30．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Developed by psychologists in the 1970s, the aim is to change a habit by replacing it with another one that’s less…(心理学家在20世纪70年代提出了这种方法，目的是通过另一种不那么……的习惯来改变这一习惯)”以及后文的例子“For example, if you tend to bite your nails at work, keep a fidget toy at your desk in advance. Then, if a stressful email comes in, use the toy when you feel the urge to bite your nails.(例如，如果你经常在工作时咬指甲，那就提前在桌子上放一个烦躁玩具。然后，如果收到一封压力很大的邮件，在你想咬指甲的时候使用这个玩具。)”可知，如果收到一封压力大的电子邮件时，当你感到想要咬指甲时，就使用这个玩具，这种危害性较小的行为来代替咬指甲这种习惯，即通过一种危害性较小的习惯来取代或者改变原有的习惯。由此可知，detrimental意为“有害的”。故选A。
31．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“And while not all of us are nail-biters, most of us do have a habit we’d like to kick. So what’s the best way to break one (虽然不是所有人都是咬指甲的人，但我们大多数人都有一个想要改掉的习惯。那么打破它的最好方法是什么呢？)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了如何改变习惯，包括了环境和常规的影响，以及一些有效的方法。C选项：Useful tips on getting rid of a habit.(关于摆脱习惯的有用建议。)是最好的标题。故选C。

Finland’s system for returning drink containers started in the 1950s, and today almost every bottle and can is recycled. Convenience is the cornerstone of the system’s success.
Nowadays there are almost 5,000 container-return machines across Finland. Most of them are located in the same shops that sell drinks, making returning them a convenient part of people’s routine. Hotels, restaurants, offices, schools and event organizers return containers through their drink providers.
The return machines are easy to use. You place a bottle or can on a set of mini conveyor belts at the front of the machine. They carry it past a scanner and out of sight. The machine sorts the bottles and crushes the cans. When you’re done, you press a button and the machine gives you a receipt. Plastic bottles are worth 20 to 40 cents, depending on their size, while glass bottles are worth 10 to 40 cents and aluminium (铝) cans are 15 cents. The returned containers are recycled or the materials are reused. Across Finland, on average, every Finn returns 373 items in a year: 251 aluminium cans, 98 plastic bottles and 24 glass bottles.
The government has entrusted this function to the private agency. “Palpa is completely nonprofit and receives no government funding,” says Tommi Vihavainen, Palpa’s director of producer services, ICT and communication.
Russia, the UK and other countries have shown interest in the Finnish system. “Most visitors want to see how the return system works in Finland,” says Vihavainen. “We don’t act as consultants, but we’re proud to present our system.”
32．What do we know about Finland’s system for returning drink containers
A．It still has a long way to develop. B．It gains popularity for its convenience.
C．It used to be fashionable but now out-dated. D．It’s supported financially by the government.
33．Why does the writer use the figures in paragraph 3
A．To show Finns consume various drinks. B．To help make the story more interesting.
C．To make the impact of the system convincing. D．To guarantee the proper logic of the passage.
34．What’s Vihavainen’s attitude towards the return system
A．Indifferent. B．Positive. C．Pessimistic. D．Dismissive.
35．What is the passage mainly about
A．Finland’s recycling programme keeps bottles off streets.
B．The return machines in the world are popular and easy.
C．Palpa—a complete nonprofit to recycle the bottles.
D．Finland—a country free of waste such as bottles.
【答案】32．B 33．C 34．B 35．A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芬兰的饮料容器回收系统因为其方便而受到欢迎，介绍了其工作原理以及人们对此的看法。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段“Convenience is the cornerstone of the system’s success.(便利是该系统成功的基石)”可知，芬兰的饮料容器回收系统因其方便而受到欢迎。故选B。
33．推理判断题。根据第三段“The returned containers are recycled or the materials are reused. Across Finland, on average, every Finn returns 373 items in a year: 251 aluminium cans, 98 plastic bottles and 24 glass bottles.(回收的容器被回收或材料被再利用。在芬兰，平均每个芬兰人每年要退回373件物品：251个铝罐、98个塑料瓶和24个玻璃瓶)”推知，作者在第三段使用这些数字是为了使该系统的影响具有说服力。故选C。
34．推理判断题。根据最后一段“We don’t act as consultants, but we’re proud to present our system. (我们不充当顾问，但我们很自豪地展示我们的系统)”可知，Vihavainen对回收制度的态度是积极的。故选B。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据第一段“Finland’s system for returning drink containers started in the 1950s, and today almost every bottle and can is recycled. Convenience is the cornerstone of the system’s success.(芬兰的饮料容器回收系统始于20世纪50年代，如今几乎所有的瓶子和罐头都被回收利用。便利是该系统成功的基石)”可知，这篇文章主要讲的是芬兰的回收项目让瓶子远离街道。故选A。

Digital art is becoming increasingly popular among many artists. 36 Then, after learning the basics of digital art and getting plenty of practice, you’ll be well on your way to excelling at digital drawing.
37 Don’t add too much detail such as fur or clothing texture. Place your drawing face down on the scanner (扫描仪). Close the scanner and then start the scan. Name the file once it’s finished scanning and save it as a PNG or JPEG for the highest quality.
Then make layers (图层). 38 So first, create a background layer by hitting the new layer button, and using the fill-in tool to fill the transparent layer in white. Then drag that layer to the bottom, so that it’s the first layer of the drawing. Multiple layers allow for more detail and flexibility without the risk of messing up the entire piece.
On each layer you’ve created, start outlining the sketch (草图) with the brush tool. 39 In this step you can also fix any mistakes that you made while sketching. After you’ve outlined your drawing, you’ll need to sketch out the colors of your drawing. Use brushes of varying sizes, depending on how big of an area you’re filling in, and color in all the different sections of your drawing. Just use a single color for each area, like the face, hair, and each article of clothing. 40 When finished, be sure to merge (合并) all the layers. Save a copy of the file so that you can go back and work on it later if you choose.
A．Draw your idea on paper.
B．Right now your draft is the only layer in the file.
C．The outline will make things easier to color later on.
D．Think about what you want to create before you work on it.
E．The more layers you add, the better the drawing will look.
F．Besides, you can add more layers and have more detail polished.
G．To make digital art, you first need a computer and a program for digital drawing.

Standing on the shore of a lake, I can’t help but feel surprised at the thousands of small rocks that surround my boots. They were all created from hard surfaces, their edges softening over time. I wonder, “Can we learn from a pile of 41 ”
Even the tallest mountains have 42 ; none are as tall as they were 1,000 years ago. And much like a rock, I’ve found my 43 has softened and my desire to better understand others has expanded with each trip around the sun.
44 , I was also a sharp rock covered in pointy edges. Today, after decades of the waters of life coursing over me, my edges are softer and and I’m more 45 . I’m less likely to judge and more interested in learning how we can 46 together.
But I’m not a rock. I’m a 47 filled with all the drama built into my DNA．
Two years ago, while traveling in the Pacific Northwest, I watched a restaurant owner ask several young men to 48 for not wearing masks. Not 49 and not rude. On the door read a sign, “Please wear a mask before entering our restaurant. We don’t like it either, but let’s all do what we can to 50 this together.”
The group of young men wanted to 51 about the note. I sat at the restaurant watching, understanding both sides. I’ve been one of them before, using my youthful edges to chip away at the world. What I lost, 52 , was the ability to grow from 53 by looking through the eyes of others. In learning to be more 54 , I’ve also found more happiness and success.
You can fit more rounded rocks in a jar than those with sharp edges. The former look for ways to 55 and make room for others, while the latter never give an 56 to accommodate others.
57 , like the waters rolling against once sharp stones, changes us by washing away our resistance to 58 the world from someone else’s point of view.
I placed a 59 stone into my jacket pocket. Mother Nature is holding a 60 again.

As is know to us, the 21st century is attached to knowledge economy and a learning-type society. However, a lecture named “lifelong education” was held at my school last Thursday.
In the lecture, a university professor introduced that lifelong learning meant and was explained what benefits it would bring us. For example, educational input will have a profound influence on their competitiveness, especially when we need to cope with technologically development.
I was inspired by speech. For me, the most important thing is that we can feel a sense to achievement by finish some challenging tasks when we are learning continuously. Lifelong learning will be one of the most rewarding pursuit if we stick to it.
【答案】1. know→known
2.However→Therefore/Thus/Hence
3.that→what
4.删除and后的was
5.their→our
6.technologically→technological
7.by后加the
8.to→of
9.finish→finishing
10.pursuit→pursuits
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述的是作者参加了学校上周四举行的一场“终身教育”的讲座，受到了很大的启发。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意：众所周知，21世纪是知识经济和学习型社会的。分析句子可知，定语从句谓语动词know与定语从句主语as之间为被动关系，as is known to us意为“众所周知”。故将know改为known。
2.考查副词。句意：因此，上周四在我的学校举行了一场名为“终身教育”的讲座。根据句子之间的逻辑关系可知，该句“a lecture named “lifelong education” was held at my school last Thursday. ”与其前的句子为因果关系，且位于句首，首字母要大写。故将However改为Therefore/Thus/Hence。
3.考查宾语从句连接词。句意：在讲座中，一位大学教授介绍了终身学习的意义，并解释了它将给我们带来什么好处。分析句子可知，introduced后面为宾语从句，从句中缺少meant的宾语，结合句意可知，此连接词指代的是事情，所以使用连接代词what。故将that改为what。
4.考查谓语动词。句意：在讲座中，一位大学教授介绍了终身学习的意义，并解释了它将给我们带来什么好处。分析句子可知，explain与句子主语a university professor之间为主动关系，不能在explained前加was。故删除and后的was。
5.考查代词。句意：例如，教育投入将对我们的竞争力产生深远的影响，特别是当我们需要应对技术发展时。结合句意可知，此处指的是“教育输入”对我们的影响，且全文都是第一人称，不能使用第三人称。故将their改为our。
6.考查形容词。句意：例如，教育投入将对我们的竞争力产生深远的影响，特别是当我们需要应对技术发展时。该句中development是名词，其前使用形容词作定语而不是副词。故将technologically改为technological。
7.考查冠词。句意：我受到演讲的启发。可数名词单数前必须要有限定词，结合语境可知，此处的speech指的是上文中提到的“终身教育”演讲，所以是特指，使用定冠词。故在by后加the。
8.考查介词。句意：对我来说，最重要的是，当我们不断学习时，通过完成一些具有挑战性的任务，我们可以感受到成就感。表示“一种成就感”应该是a sense of achievement，此处表示“……的”应该使用介词of。故将to改为of。
9.考查非谓语动词。句意：对我来说，最重要的是，当我们不断学习时，通过完成一些具有挑战性的任务，我们可以感受到成就感。介词by后面应该为动名词doing作宾语，不能跟动词原形。故将finish改为finishing。
10.考查名词。句意：如果我们坚持下去，终身学习将是最有价值的追求之一。分析句子可知，one of +名词复数，表示的是“……之一”，所以此处pursuit应使用名词复数。故将pursuit改为pursuits。

【答案】Dear Jim,
I’m glad to hear that you’ll visit China. I know it isn’t easy to remember everything that you have to know in China. But I think the following rules are important for you to know about them. First, you are supposed to shake hands when you meet people for the first time. Then, at the dinner table, you are supposed to use chopsticks to eat almost everything instead of knife and fork. And it’s rude to stick your chopsticks into your food. Also you should pick up you bowl of rice while eating rice. They are quite different from the manners in the US. But don’t worry! You’ll get used to them quickly. And you’ll have a good time here.
Yours,
Li hua
【导语】本篇书面属于应用文，要求考生给要来中国的美国朋友Jim写一封邮件，向他讲述一些中国的礼仪，让他不至于太紧张。
【详解】1.词汇积累
重要的：important→essential

参观：visit→pay a visit to
应该做某事：be supposed to do…→should do …
