At 98, Dick Van Dyke still sings with his group, The Vantastix, and still makes it all look easy. When asked how important it is that he’s having fun when he’s doing it, Van Dyke replied, “My whole career has relied on that. It’s such a blessing to find a way of making a living that you love. I feel so sorry for people who hate their job. I look forward to going to work every morning!”
And some of his work helped define a generation. Take “The Dick Van Dyke Show”; it ran for five years on CBS, and it was such a hit that they’re bringing it back. This week, CBS aired a two-hour tribute (致敬), “Dick Van Dyke, 98 Years of Magic”, and for the occasion, they recreated the original Dick Van Dyke Show” set, down to that well-known sofa.
Early in his career Van Dyke was quoted as saying he only wanted to make films his children could watch. That got the attention of Walt Disney, who promptly cast him in “Mary Poppins”. And his next few films were equally family-friendly, like “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” which happened to have been co-written by James Bond creator Ian Fleming. From then on, Van Dyke was almost always assigned to play the good guy, though he claims to have missed out on a choice part: “Yeah, I could have been James Bond. When Sean Connery left, the producer said, ‘Would you like to be the next Bond ’ I said, ‘Have you heard my British accent ’ That’s a true story!”
It seems that in show biz the true legends never stop. In an interview from 2017 with his friends, Van Dyke described what it was like hitting 90: “People are more afraid of aging than they are of death these days. And I want to say that remain young in heart and there’s a lot of good living to do.”
24.What can we infer from Dyke’s reply in Paragraph 1
A.He enjoys his job. B.He hates morning work.
C.He sees his job as a burden. D.He prefers leisure to work.
25.What did CBS do for Dyke
A.They created a new set for his show.
B.They bought a famous sofa for him.
C.They made a special program for him.
D.They invited young generation to watch his show.
26.Which statement is true about Dyke’s career
A.His films are rarely family-friendly.
B.His films are only made for his children.
C.Van Dyke was always playing the good guy.
D.Van Dyke had the chance to play James Bond.
27.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Forever Young. B.Work Comes First.
C.Always Have Fun. D.Legends Are Timeless.
C
It was in an unexpected place that he found the key to the problem: not in his classrooms but among the graduate students (研究生) who came to work in his lab. When his PH. D.candidates entered the lab, Wieman noticed, their habits of thought were no less narrow and rigid than the undergraduates. Within a year or two, however, these same graduate students transformed into the flexible thinkers he was trying so earnestly, and unsuccessfully, to cultivate. “Some kind of intellectual process must have been missing from the traditional education,” Wieman recounts.
A major factor in the graduate students’ transformation. Wieman concluded, was their experience of intense social engagement around a body of knowledge — the hours they spent advising, debating with, and recounting anecdotes to one another. In 2019, a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences backed this idea. Tracking the intellectual advancement of several hundred graduate students in the sciences over the course of four years, its authors found that the development of crucial skills such as generating hypotheses (假设), designing experiments, and analyzing data was closely related to the students’ engagement with their peers in the lab, rather than the guidance they received from their faculty mentors (导师).
Wieman is one of a growing number of Stanford professors who are bringing this “active learning” approach to their courses. His aspiration is to move science education away from the lecture format, toward a model that is more active and more engaged.
28.What problem did Carl Wieman have with his undergraduates
A.Making them excel in the lab. B.Demonstrating lab experiments.
C.Facilitating their all-round development. D.Enhancing their physics problem-solving.
29.Which of the following best describes the graduate students who first joined Wieman’s lab
A.Limited in thinking. B.Resistant to new ideas.
C.Flexible and earnest. D.Experienced and cooperative.
30.What is crucial for developing students’ intelligent thought according to the 2019 study
A.Intense lab work. B.Peer pressure and evaluation.
C.Academic interaction with fellows. D.Engagement with external society.
31.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A.Transforming Graduates’ Habits B.Carl Wieman’s Nobel Prize Journey
C.The Nobel-Prize Winner’s Struggles D.Carl Wieman’s Education Innovation
D
The growth mindset is the belief that intellectual abilities can be developed and are not fixed, which have received a great deal of attention in schools and among researchers.
According to a study, a teacher’s growth mindset acts as a “support” that can draw out a student's growth mindset at the very beginning and make it maintainable and actionable in the classroom. These teachers may convey how, in their classes, mistakes are learning opportunities, not signs of low ability, and back up this view with assignments and evaluations that reward continual improvement. This could encourage a student to continue acting on their growth mindset.
The study analyzed data from the National Study of Learning Mindset, which was an intervention experiment conducted with a sample of ninth-grade students’ math grades. The present focus on math grades is motivated by the fact that students tend to find math challenging and anxiety inducing, and therefore, a growth mindset might help students face those challenges productively.
In the study, researchers show that the positive effect of a short growth-mindset intervention on ninth-grade students’ math grades was concentrated among students whose teachers themselves had growth mindset. They also found that baseline students — serve as a benchmark (基准点) for comparing and evaluating the progress of other students — who reported more fixed mindset in classrooms showed a significantly positive effect on math grades.
Successfully teaching a growth mindset to students lifted math grades overall, but this was not enough for all students to reap the benefits of a growth-mindset intervention. Supportive classroom contexts also mattered.Students who were in classrooms with teachers who approved of more of a fixed mindset did not show gains in their math grades over ninth grade, whereas the same kind of students in classrooms with more growth-mind set teachers showed meaningful gains.
In general, they view the testing and understanding of the causal effect of teacher mindset as the next step for mindset science. Such research will be challenging to carry out, however.
32.What is the second paragraph mainly about
A.How a student's growth-mindset is inspired.
B.Why a teacher's growth mindset is important.
C.How mistakes turn into learning opportunities.
D.Why a student continues acting on growth mindset.
33.What can we learn from the study on ninth-grade students
A.Students were unable to overcome maths challenge.
B.The positive effect was concentrated on all students.
C.The sample size of the experiment was insufficient.
D.Students at baseline were influenced considerably.
34.In the growth-mindset intervention, the teachers' mindset_______.
A.has an influence on the effectiveness
B.is determined by supportive classroom
C.always brings meaningful gains to students
D.plays a decisive role in students' significant gains
35.What is a suitable title for the text
A.The Academic Performance: The Influence of Students’ Mindset
B.Students’ Learning Motivation: The Impact of Teachers’ Mindset
C.Encouraging a Growth Mindset: The Role of Teachers
D.Fixed and Growth Mindset: Their Relationship and Impact

In 2050, one in four people will be over 60 in the Asia-Pacific region. Are countries there prepared to fully address the needs of older persons so that they age with dignity
In the past, senior citizens might have been supported by their families and communities. Yet times are changing.
36 Meanwhile, more and more governments are wrestling with increasing healthcare costs and a decreasing workforce.
More than ever, there is an urgent need for policy reform in addressing population aging. This must be driven by a shift in mindset to turn the challenges into a demographic opportunity.
37 More and more people are living longer due to the advancements in health, nutrition, economic and social well-being. 38 This is due to a variety of reasons such as challenges in striking a work-life balance to not being able to afford having more children. However, low fertility and longer life expectancy are not the problem. The real problem is not being ready to face this rapidly changing demographic shift.
It is noteworthy that, in the Asia-Pacific, with more than half of the older population being women, it is crucial to adopt a life-cycle approach to population aging, grounded in gender equality and human rights. Investing in each stage of life determines the path of a woman’s life course. When a girl has access to quality education, it helps her make informed decisions about life-changing matters. 39
While there is no single comprehensive policy that can address population aging, we need to take action now. 40 In so doing, countries in the Asia-Pacific region can hope for, and achieve, a better future for all, where no one is left behind.
A.Couples are having fewer babies.
B.Pensions are increasing, pressuring governments further.
C.We must rethink population aging, celebrating it as the victory of development.
D.Migration and urbanization have shifted traditional support systems for the elderly.
E.The decisions she makes paves the way towards a healthier and wealthier silver age.
F.We must invest in better policies that focus on the needs of people at every age of their life.
G.Life-long gender discrimination leaves women even more disadvantaged in an aging society.

One spring day, the wind was gentle and the sun was shining brightly. The sky was clear and blue, and the temperature was comfortable. It was a perfect day for a walk outside.
Our teacher Mr. White asked us all to go out of the classroom to enjoy the natural sights and sounds of the natural world. But before Ruby and I were ready to go out to play, Cathy signed to both of us to stop. We were the best sisters, playing together each time.
“Come over, ladies! Guess what I discovered in Mr. White’s locker, with a mysterious smile on her face, Cathy rocked a chalk box with pieces of colorful chalk inside.
“Fabulous! How exciting it would be to write on the blackboard with it!” Ruby exclaimed with curiosity and expectation.
“But we can’t do it without our Mr. White’s permission, “I said timidly.
“Nobody will find it out. If you’re a chicken, you can stand by and just watch. Anyway, Cathy and I would have a try, “said Ruby. She picked out a piece of pink chalk and started to draw a dress.
Not to make them believe I was a chicken, I unwillingly involved myself in the creation of art. Soon I lost myself in the picture drawing though I knew we were breaking the class rule: never touch the teachers’ supplies. A moment later we drew a rainbow, a rabbit and a dinosaur respectively. Then we went on drawing many other objects with our imagination. It was real fun.
Suddenly, I noticed the clock above the blackboard. It pointed to 10: 28, only two minutes to the end of the interval. We must erase all on the blackboard before Mr. White came back. If we were caught, we would be punished by doing the cleaning for the class in the next three days.
In a hurry, I picked up an eraser and started destroying our art pieces. As the chalk was so sticky that it left a heavy sign on the blackboard. I had to rub it carefully.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When the work was almost done, the bell announcing the beginning of class rang.
Mr. White never asked about the scratch, even never noticed it.

30.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“A major factor in the graduate students’ transformation. Wieman concluded, was their experience of intense social engagement around a body of knowledge — the hours they spent advising, debating with, and recounting anecdotes to one another. In 2019, a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences backed this idea. (他总结说,研究生转变的一个主要因素是他们围绕知识体系的强烈社会参与体验——他们花费大量时间相互建议、辩论和叙述轶事。2019年,美国国家科学院院刊发表的一项研究支持了这一观点。)”可知,根据2019年的研究,发展学生智力思维的关键是与外部社会的接触。故选D。
31.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Wieman is one of a growing number of Stanford professors who are bringing this “active learning” approach to their courses. His aspiration is to move science education away from the lecture format, toward a model that is more active and more engaged. (越来越多的斯坦福大学教授将这种“主动学习”的方法引入他们的课程,维曼就是其中之一。他的愿望是将科学教育从讲座形式转变为一种更加积极和更加投入的模式。)”结合文章段落大意,文章第一段是讲Carl Wieman在教学中发现学生的思维能力和解决问题的能力较差;第二、三段关于他如何找到的解决方案——在实验室的研究生身上发现思维能力的提升关键是和同伴进行的学术交流。第四段是结果——越来越多的教授们在课程教学中采用积极学习的模式。可知本文主要介绍了诺贝尔奖获得者美国斯坦福大学教授将“主动学习”的方法引入课程,希望将科学教育从讲座形式转变为一种更加积极和更加投入的模式,选项D“Carl Wieman’s Education Innovation(卡尔·维曼的教育创新) ”符合本文题目。故选D。

67.【答案】参考范文
When the work was almost done, the bell announcing the beginning of class rang. With the students’ laughter approaching, I became nervous. If they reported it to the teacher that we were doing something against the class rule, how should we face it Just then, I suddenly spotted a place close to the edge of the blackboard still stained with a yellow mark. Using the side of the eraser, I tried to wipe it off, but the next moment came a shrieking noise. The mark was gone, but the metal part of the eraser left a remarkably noticeable scratch. I was terrified, not knowing what to do.
Mr. White never asked about the scratch, even never noticed it. But with time going by, I felt more and more uneasy. Every day I looked up sitting in the classroom, my eyes would involuntarily fall on the scratched surface, cheeks burning with shame. Three days later, I plucked up my courage and told the truth to Mr. White. Patting me gently on the head, he said, “I’m glad you admit it. In fact, I am waiting for your honest conduct. Don’t worry about the punishment. Actually, you’ve suffered a lot since you tried to cover the truth.”
