All I had to do for the two dollars was to clean her house for a few hours after school. It was a beautiful house with things that were common in her neighborhood, absent in mine.
Working for her brought me a sense of pride, not only because I could immerse in little luxuries like movies and candy, but also because I contributed half of my earnings to my mother, ensuring they were used for necessities. I was not like the children in folk tales: burdensome mouths to feed, problems so severe that they were abandoned to the forest. I had a status that doing routine chores in my house did not provide —and it earned me a slow smile, an approving nod from an adult and confirmations that I was adult-like, not childlike.
In those days, children were not just loved or liked; they were needed. They could earn money; they could care for children younger than themselves; they could work the farm, take care of the herd, and much more. I suspect that children aren't needed in that way now. They are loved, protected and spoiled.
Little by little, I got better at cleaning her house —good enough to be given more to do. After struggling to move the piano, my limbs ached terribly. Despite wanting to decline or voice my discomfort, I feared losing my job and the independence and respect it afforded me. She began to offer me her clothes, for a price. Impressed by these worn things, which looked simply elegant to a little girl who had only two dresses to wear to school, I bought a few.
Still, I had trouble summoning up(鼓起)the courage to object to the increasing demands she made. Despite feeling overwhelmed, I hesitated to voice my concerns, knowing my mother would urge me to quit. However, one day while alone in the kitchen with my father, I expressed my disappointment. In any case, he put down his cup of coffee and said, "Get your money. Whatever the work is, do it well —not for the boss but for yourself. You make the job; it doesn't make you. You are not the work you do; you are the person you are.
I have worked for all sorts of people since then, geniuses and fools, quick-witted and dull, big-hearted and narrow. I've had many kinds of jobs, but since that conversation with my father, I have never considered the level of labor to be the measure of myself, and I have never placed the security of a job above my self-worth and family value.
4.What mainly enabled the author to continue bearing the burden of work
A.Abundant exposure to entertainment.
B.Pride in shouldering family obligations.
C.Inborn abilities to handle work stress.
D.Satisfaction from contributing to society.
5.Which of the following can be used to describe the author's character
A.Observant and independent.
B.Responsible but innocent.
C.Family-oriented and humorous.
D.Determined but stubborn.
6.What did the author's father make her understand
A.Don't try to escape difficulties in work.
B.Don't be pessimistic about her identity.
C.Express dissatisfaction with her work freely.
D.Make a distinction between work and life.
7.What does the author mainly want to tell us
A.Success isn't always guaranteed by hard work alone.
B.Family support can alleviate the pain of challenging work.
C.Don't regard work achievement as a criterion for defining oneself.

4.推理判断题。根据 Working for her brought me a sense of pride, not only because I could immerse in little luxuries like movies and candy, but also because I contributed half of my earnings to my mother, ensuring they were used for necessities.为她工作给我带来了一种自豪感,不仅因为我可以沉浸在像电影和糖果这样的小奢侈品中,还因为我把一半的收入捐给了我母亲,确保这些收入用于生活必需品。可知以承担家庭责任为荣让作者能够继续承担工作的重担 ; 故答案为B 。
5.推理判断题。根据In those days, children were not just loved or liked; they were needed. They could earn money; they could care for children younger than themselves; they could work the farm, take care of the herd, and much more. I suspect that children aren't needed in that way now. They are loved, protected and spoiled. 在那些日子里,孩子们不仅仅是被爱或被喜欢;他们被需要。他们可以赚钱;他们可以照顾比自己小的孩子;他们可以在农场干活,照顾牛群,以及做更多的事情。我怀疑孩子现在已经不再那样被需要了。他们被爱,被保护,被溺爱。Despite wanting to decline or voice my discomfort, I feared losing my job and the independence and respect it afforded me. 尽管我想拒绝或表达我的不适,但我害怕失去我的工作,失去它给我的独立和尊重。可知作者是一个观察力强并且很独立的人 ; 故答案为A 。

(2024高三下·台州月考)阅读理解
Falcons(猎鹰)are powerful birds that may be trained to hunt in cooperation with humans. The art of training falcons as "hunting dogs of the skies" is called falconry. It was developed in the ancient Arabian Desert around 4000 B.C. In the past, falconry mainly involved hunting with falcons to supplement one's diet. But now, it has become the favorite sport and spare-time activities in the Arabian Peninsula.
Falconry includes three major processes: acquiring the falcons, training them, and hunting with them. Every year, falconers begin capturing wild falcons in June and July, the migration season. The best birds to catch are the ones with naturally nurtured hunting skills, aged one or two years. Once the falcons are captured, their heads are immediately covered with a leather hood(罩). This is essential because they imprint as their master whomever they see first after the hood is removed. Right after a bird is caught, the training process starts. It begins by depriving the bird of food to make it easier to domesticate. The birds are taught to know their own name and respond to their master when called. Arab falconers live with their birds day and night in order to build a strong relationship with them.
By the end of October or mid-November, the trained falcons are ready to hunt in the desert. They have excellent vision, 2. 6 times greater than that of a human. They are also the fastest divers on the planet. One hunting technique that sets them apart from other animals is that they can be trained to deliver their prey(猎 物), without killing it first. This is vital in Islamic culture because animals used for food must still be alive to ensure that the meat is halal, that is, properly prepared according to Islamic law
Falcons have played such a crucial role in traditional Islamic cultures that a number of countries in the Middle East have made them their national bird. Falconry has grown so popular that specialist hospitals have been established to take care of these magnificent birds. Falcons are even issued their own passports. They are the only animals in the United Arab Emirates that are legally allowed to travel inside planes, enjoying a level of luxury that some humans can only dream of.
8.What is the main reason for Arabic people to hunt with falcons today
A.To improve their diet.
B.To serve as recreation and exercise.
C.To honor their national bird.
D.To replace the practice of hunting with dogs
9.Which of the following can be inferred from the second paragraph
A.Falconers don't offer food to falcons in order to capture them.
B.Falcons are kept from seeing their trainers during the training process.
C.Wild falcons with natural hunting skills are ideal for falconers to catch.
D.The trainers' names are written on the hoods covering the birds' heads.
10.What especially makes falcons a unique species for hunting in Islamic culture
A.Falcons keep their prey alive until it's presented to the falconers.
B.Falcons can be trained relatively easily for targeted hunting purposes.
C.Falcons possess vision well-suited for hunting in desert environments.
D.Falcons are capable of rapidly developing a strong bond with their handlers.
11.According to the article, what privilege do falcons enjoy in the Arab world
A.Air tickets free of charge.
B.Access to specialized medical care
C.Luxuries unique to Arab.
D.Passports honorably issued by the King
【答案】8.B

8.细节理解题。根据 But now, it has become the favorite sport and spare-time activities in the Arabian Peninsula.但现在,它已成为阿拉伯半岛最受欢迎的运动和业余活动。可知现在用猎鹰打猎的主要作为娱乐和运动锻炼; 故答案为B 。
9.细节理解题。根据 The best birds to catch are the ones with naturally nurtured hunting skills, aged one or two years.最适合捕捉的鸟是那些天生具备狩猎技能的,年龄在一两岁左右的鸟。可知具有天然狩猎技能的野生猎鹰是捕鹰人的理想选择 ; 故答案为C 。
10.细节理解题。根据One hunting technique that sets them apart from other animals is that they can be trained to deliver their prey(猎 物), without killing it first. 它们与其他动物不同的一项狩猎技术是,它们可以经过训练,在不先杀死猎物的情况下交付猎物(猎物)。可知猎鹰一直让猎物活着,直到它被呈现给训鹰人; 故答案为A 。
11.细节理解题。根据 Falconry has grown so popular that specialist hospitals have been established to take care of these magnificent birds. Falcons are even issued their own passports. They are the only animals in the United Arab Emirates that are legally allowed to travel inside planes, enjoying a level of luxury that some humans can only dream of.猎鹰术变得如此受欢迎,以至于建立了专门的医院来照顾这些美丽的鸟类。猎鹰甚至有自己的护照。它们是阿拉伯联合酋长国唯一合法允许乘坐飞机的动物,享受着一些人梦寐以求的奢华。可知获得专业医疗服务; 故答案为 B。

Scientists are poor forecasters of the future. But two trends can be confidently predicted. First, the world will get more crowded. There will be more than 9 billion people by 2050. Second, the world will get warmer and some governments won't prioritize the long-term measures needed to deal with climate change, even though science offers us a road-map to a low-carbon future.
That's why we should be promoters of new technology—without it the world can't provide the food and sustainable energy needed for an expanding population. But we should also be cautious, as new technologies, such as AI, may be hard to control. AI will undoubtedly become more aggressive in the future. Records of our movements, health and financial transactions will be stored in the cloud. The data may be used for justifiable reasons, such as protein folding and drug development, or to warn us of initial health risks, but its availability to Internet companies is already shifting the balance of power from governments to global-scale corporations.
Actually, it's beyond Earth that AI has the most enormous potential. Humans may have established bases beyond Earth by the year 2100. But don't ever expect mass emigration(移民)from Earth. It's a false belief that space offers an escape from our problems. Dealing with climate change on Earth is a piece of cake compared to terraforming(地球化)Mars.
Nevertheless, we should cheer on these brave human space adventurers. They'll be ill-adapted to a Martian habitat, so they'll have a super motive to redesign themselves. It's they, not those of us adapted to life on Earth. who will pioneer the post-human era (时代).
If post-humans make the shift from flesh and blood to fully artificial intelligence, they won't need an atmosphere of even gravity, so it's in deep space —not even on Mars that non biological "brains" may develop powers that we can't imagine. They may end up being mentally different from us. AI could jump-start a huge emigration and thus even more complex intelligence spreads through the universe.
But let's refocus from the science fiction of the far future, closer to the here and now. This century is special. It's the first, in Earth's 4.5-billion-year history where one species-ours—holds the planet's future in its hands. Our intelligence could initiate billions of years of post-human evolution(演化), even more amazing than that which led to us. On the other hand, humans could cause biological, environmental or cyber catastrophes that foreclose all this potential. If science is to save us, we need to think globally, sensibly and long-term—empowered by science, but guided by values that science alone can't provide
12.Why does the author mention the two trends in the first paragraph
A.To justify the governments' policies.
B.To criticize scientists' poor prediction ability.
C.To advocate for advancements in tech.
D.To highlight the challenges faced by scientists.
13.According to this passage, AI can
A.put an end to climate change
B.facilitate mass human migration
C.speedup the competition in medical fields
D.bring about potential threats from big companies
14.As for the future, which of the following will the author agree with
A.Post-humans will echo the history of humans.
B.Complex intelligence will dominate the universe.
C.Non-biological brains may invite unknown disasters.
D.Fully artificial intelligence may inhabit outer space.
15.Which would be the best title for the passage
A.Future of Humanity: Could AI Save Us
B.Change or Die: Will Science Lead Further Evolution
C.Towards a Sustainable Future: What Can We Do
D.Unstoppable Trend: Is Complex Intelligence Coming
【答案】12.C
13.D

How Your Brain Deceives You
Your brain possesses some incredible abilities, from recalling conversations with close friends to tackling complex math problems with ease. 16. At times, it may even overlook critical information, resulting in errors that could be bad for your well-being or health. 17. .
One of the biggest shortcomings of your brain is that it can get lazy. When trying to solve a problem or make a decision, your mind often falls back on solutions that have worked in the past. While using shortcuts can be a useful and effective approach, they can also trip you up and cause you to make mistakes. For example, maybe you're terrified of flying because you can think of several tragic, high-profile plane crashes. In reality, traveling by air is much safer than traveling by car. 18.
Moreover, your brain might fail to detect significant changes occurring in your surroundings, a phenomenon referred to as change blindness. 19. —otherwise, it will get overwhelmed. Seemingly not like a huge problem, it can have major consequences according to some research. For example, people who have jobs like air traffic control can make potentially disastrous errors as a result of change blindness.
20. In the process, we twist reality to protect our self-esteem—in other words, we don't want to own up when we mess up. Why do we participate in the blame game Researchers believe it's to safeguard our self-esteem and shield ourselves from the fear of failure. When adopting this mindset, we attribute negative outcomes to factors beyond our control.
A. Your brain has to prioritize what it pays attention to.
B. But it is not that perfect and open to imperfections.
C. This realization can carry you through some unnecessary errors.
D. However, you can avoid some of these errors by acquiring a better understanding of them.
E. It goes without saying that your brain is incapable of processing all information at the same time.
F. When something goes wrong, your brain instinctively seeks someone or something to hold responsible.
G. However, your brain is using a mental shortcut to fool you into believing flying is more dangerous than it is.
【答案】16.B;17.D;18.G;19.A;20.F

All I had to do for the two dollars was to clean her house for a few hours after school. It was a beautiful house with things that were common in her neighborhood, absent in mine.
Working for her brought me a sense of pride, not only because I could immerse in little luxuries like movies and candy, but also because I contributed half of my earnings to my mother, ensuring they were used for necessities. I was not like the children in folk tales: burdensome mouths to feed, problems so severe that they were abandoned to the forest. I had a status that doing routine chores in my house did not provide —and it earned me a slow smile, an approving nod from an adult and confirmations that I was adult-like, not childlike.
In those days, children were not just loved or liked; they were needed. They could earn money; they could care for children younger than themselves; they could work the farm, take care of the herd, and much more. I suspect that children aren't needed in that way now. They are loved, protected and spoiled.
Little by little, I got better at cleaning her house —good enough to be given more to do. After struggling to move the piano, my limbs ached terribly. Despite wanting to decline or voice my discomfort, I feared losing my job and the independence and respect it afforded me. She began to offer me her clothes, for a price. Impressed by these worn things, which looked simply elegant to a little girl who had only two dresses to wear to school, I bought a few.
Still, I had trouble summoning up(鼓起)the courage to object to the increasing demands she made. Despite feeling overwhelmed, I hesitated to voice my concerns, knowing my mother would urge me to quit. However, one day while alone in the kitchen with my father, I expressed my disappointment. In any case, he put down his cup of coffee and said, "Get your money. Whatever the work is, do it well —not for the boss but for yourself. You make the job; it doesn't make you. You are not the work you do; you are the person you are.
I have worked for all sorts of people since then, geniuses and fools, quick-witted and dull, big-hearted and narrow. I've had many kinds of jobs, but since that conversation with my father, I have never considered the level of labor to be the measure of myself, and I have never placed the security of a job above my self-worth and family value.

Falcons(猎鹰)are powerful birds that may be trained to hunt in cooperation with humans. The art of training falcons as "hunting dogs of the skies" is called falconry. It was developed in the ancient Arabian Desert around 4000 B.C. In the past, falconry mainly involved hunting with falcons to supplement one's diet. But now, it has become the favorite sport and spare-time activities in the Arabian Peninsula.
Falconry includes three major processes: acquiring the falcons, training them, and hunting with them. Every year, falconers begin capturing wild falcons in June and July, the migration season. The best birds to catch are the ones with naturally nurtured hunting skills, aged one or two years. Once the falcons are captured, their heads are immediately covered with a leather hood(罩). This is essential because they imprint as their master whomever they see first after the hood is removed. Right after a bird is caught, the training process starts. It begins by depriving the bird of food to make it easier to domesticate. The birds are taught to know their own name and respond to their master when called. Arab falconers live with their birds day and night in order to build a strong relationship with them.
By the end of October or mid-November, the trained falcons are ready to hunt in the desert. They have excellent vision, 2. 6 times greater than that of a human. They are also the fastest divers on the planet. One hunting technique that sets them apart from other animals is that they can be trained to deliver their prey(猎 物), without killing it first. This is vital in Islamic culture because animals used for food must still be alive to ensure that the meat is halal, that is, properly prepared according to Islamic law
Falcons have played such a crucial role in traditional Islamic cultures that a number of countries in the Middle East have made them their national bird. Falconry has grown so popular that specialist hospitals have been established to take care of these magnificent birds. Falcons are even issued their own passports. They are the only animals in the United Arab Emirates that are legally allowed to travel inside planes, enjoying a level of luxury that some humans can only dream of.
8.What is the main reason for Arabic people to hunt with falcons today
A.To improve their diet.
B.To serve as recreation and exercise.
C.To honor their national bird.
D.To replace the practice of hunting with dogs
9.Which of the following can be inferred from the second paragraph
A.Falconers don't offer food to falcons in order to capture them.
B.Falcons are kept from seeing their trainers during the training process.
C.Wild falcons with natural hunting skills are ideal for falconers to catch.
D.The trainers' names are written on the hoods covering the birds' heads.
10.What especially makes falcons a unique species for hunting in Islamic culture
A.Falcons keep their prey alive until it's presented to the falconers.
B.Falcons can be trained relatively easily for targeted hunting purposes.
C.Falcons possess vision well-suited for hunting in desert environments.
D.Falcons are capable of rapidly developing a strong bond with their handlers.
11.According to the article, what privilege do falcons enjoy in the Arab world
A.Air tickets free of charge.
B.Access to specialized medical care
C.Luxuries unique to Arab.
D.Passports honorably issued by the King

Scientists are poor forecasters of the future. But two trends can be confidently predicted. First, the world will get more crowded. There will be more than 9 billion people by 2050. Second, the world will get warmer and some governments won't prioritize the long-term measures needed to deal with climate change, even though science offers us a road-map to a low-carbon future.
That's why we should be promoters of new technology—without it the world can't provide the food and sustainable energy needed for an expanding population. But we should also be cautious, as new technologies, such as AI, may be hard to control. AI will undoubtedly become more aggressive in the future. Records of our movements, health and financial transactions will be stored in the cloud. The data may be used for justifiable reasons, such as protein folding and drug development, or to warn us of initial health risks, but its availability to Internet companies is already shifting the balance of power from governments to global-scale corporations.
Actually, it's beyond Earth that AI has the most enormous potential. Humans may have established bases beyond Earth by the year 2100. But don't ever expect mass emigration(移民)from Earth. It's a false belief that space offers an escape from our problems. Dealing with climate change on Earth is a piece of cake compared to terraforming(地球化)Mars.
Nevertheless, we should cheer on these brave human space adventurers. They'll be ill-adapted to a Martian habitat, so they'll have a super motive to redesign themselves. It's they, not those of us adapted to life on Earth. who will pioneer the post-human era (时代).
If post-humans make the shift from flesh and blood to fully artificial intelligence, they won't need an atmosphere of even gravity, so it's in deep space —not even on Mars that non biological "brains" may develop powers that we can't imagine. They may end up being mentally different from us. AI could jump-start a huge emigration and thus even more complex intelligence spreads through the universe.
But let's refocus from the science fiction of the far future, closer to the here and now. This century is special. It's the first, in Earth's 4.5-billion-year history where one species-ours—holds the planet's future in its hands. Our intelligence could initiate billions of years of post-human evolution(演化), even more amazing than that which led to us. On the other hand, humans could cause biological, environmental or cyber catastrophes that foreclose all this potential. If science is to save us, we need to think globally, sensibly and long-term—empowered by science, but guided by values that science alone can't provide
12.Why does the author mention the two trends in the first paragraph
A.To justify the governments' policies.
B.To criticize scientists' poor prediction ability.
C.To advocate for advancements in tech.
D.To highlight the challenges faced by scientists.
13.According to this passage, AI can
A.put an end to climate change
B.facilitate mass human migration
C.speedup the competition in medical fields
D.bring about potential threats from big companies
14.As for the future, which of the following will the author agree with
A.Post-humans will echo the history of humans.
B.Complex intelligence will dominate the universe.
C.Non-biological brains may invite unknown disasters.
D.Fully artificial intelligence may inhabit outer space.
15.Which would be the best title for the passage
A.Future of Humanity: Could AI Save Us
B.Change or Die: Will Science Lead Further Evolution
C.Towards a Sustainable Future: What Can We Do
D.Unstoppable Trend: Is Complex Intelligence Coming

How Your Brain Deceives You
Your brain possesses some incredible abilities, from recalling conversations with close friends to tackling complex math problems with ease. 16. At times, it may even overlook critical information, resulting in errors that could be bad for your well-being or health. 17. .
One of the biggest shortcomings of your brain is that it can get lazy. When trying to solve a problem or make a decision, your mind often falls back on solutions that have worked in the past. While using shortcuts can be a useful and effective approach, they can also trip you up and cause you to make mistakes. For example, maybe you're terrified of flying because you can think of several tragic, high-profile plane crashes. In reality, traveling by air is much safer than traveling by car. 18.
Moreover, your brain might fail to detect significant changes occurring in your surroundings, a phenomenon referred to as change blindness. 19. —otherwise, it will get overwhelmed. Seemingly not like a huge problem, it can have major consequences according to some research. For example, people who have jobs like air traffic control can make potentially disastrous errors as a result of change blindness.
20. In the process, we twist reality to protect our self-esteem—in other words, we don't want to own up when we mess up. Why do we participate in the blame game Researchers believe it's to safeguard our self-esteem and shield ourselves from the fear of failure. When adopting this mindset, we attribute negative outcomes to factors beyond our control.
A. Your brain has to prioritize what it pays attention to.
B. But it is not that perfect and open to imperfections.
C. This realization can carry you through some unnecessary errors.
D. However, you can avoid some of these errors by acquiring a better understanding of them.
E. It goes without saying that your brain is incapable of processing all information at the same time.
F. When something goes wrong, your brain instinctively seeks someone or something to hold responsible.
G. However, your brain is using a mental shortcut to fool you into believing flying is more dangerous than it is.
