Dede Gardner was born in Chicago in 1967 and studied English at Columbia University. Seventeen years after her graduation, she worked as President of Plan B Entertainment, a production company started by Brad Grey.
At Plan B, Dede finds stories to make into films. Jeremy Kleiner, who is now co-president of Plan B, says Dede was his mentor (导师) before he joined her as a producing partner. “I’ve had the honor to work with her for almost 20 years,” he says. “She’s just a one-of-a-kind person in so many ways. She is very brave and views storytelling as the focus of her films.”
This year, Dede is the only woman to have won two Best Picture Oscars, for Moonlight and 12 Years a Slave. Before, together with Kleiner, she won seven films to Best Picture nominations (提名) including Selma in 2015, The Big Short in 2016 and Minari in 2021.
“Basically, whatever Dede does, it turns to gold,” says Jessie Buckley, one of the stars of Women Talking. “Dede has also changed the culture of making movies. She is always there to make the set feel comfortable when we are obviously coming across difficult things. She’s a great example to follow. She’s very careful with protecting the workers’ voice.”
Dede is actually exploring a much healthier and kinder way to make movies. She’s a producer who consciously thinks about creating a set where there is care. That includes making sure there are therapists (治疗专家) on set for all the workers in case there are emergencies happening.

The Fire Festival is celebrated in northern Ghana. It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It’s unbelievably great.
On the Fire Festival — Bugim Chug u in the local language — drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the light and getting off negative energies.
At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the celebration that they don’t pay as much attention to us as they normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy.
Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.”
Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them — and lets them see a different side of us. The neighbors who sell rice are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key (低调的) volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy dance steps with wild screams.
8. Why did the author go to northern Ghana
A. To find a job. B. To go traveling.
C. To study further. D. To do voluntary work.
9. How do the locals feel when seeing the author and Danielle join in the celebration
A. Annoyed. B. Excited. C. Confused. D. Worried.
10. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A The steps to dance well.
B. How the locals celebrate the Fire Festival.
C. How the author and Danielle help the locals sell rice.
D. The reason why the author and Danielle joined in the festival.
11. What can we learn from the text
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Where there is a will, there is a way.
C. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
D. The grass is always greener on the other side.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述作者作为和平工作团志愿者在加纳北部庆祝火把节的经历。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers.(这是一个我们作为和平队社区志愿者来到这个村庄之前从未听说过的节日)”可知,作者是以和平工作团志愿者的身份来到加纳北部。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy.(当他们发现我们像他们一样参与进来时,他们会跳得更卖力,高兴地尖叫)”可推断,当地人发现志愿者们加入他们的庆祝活动后,他们非常激动。故选B。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them — and lets them see a different side of us.(我们想不出比和我们认识的村民一起庆祝火把节更好的告别方式了。这个节日让我们看到了他们不同的一面,也让他们看到了我们不同的一面)”可知,本段主要讲作者和Danielle加入当地火把节庆祝活动的原因。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。结合第一段“It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers.(这是一个我们作为和平队社区志愿者来到这个村庄之前从未听说过的节日)”和第四段中“That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.(我们参加庆祝活动意义重大,因为这里的外国人通常被视为其他组织的代表,而不是愿意参加火把节仪式的人。但事实上,我们在一起跳舞和庆祝)”可知,作者和Danielle以和平工作团志愿者的身份来到加纳北部,当地人庆祝火把节时,他们入乡随俗,积极参与庆祝活动,这得以让当地人和志愿者们重新认识彼此。故选C。

With artificial intelligence (AI) seemingly working its way into every technology out there, one area where it’s considered particularly promising is in helping doctors. And already, AI is entering some doctors’ offices.
Dr. Michael Mansour of Massachusetts General Hospital is an early user who’s helped by a form of AI that could someday change the way doctors get information. When a patient comes in with unknown infection (感染), Mansour turns to a computer program called UpToDate. It’s a common tool, with more than 2 million users at 44,000 health care organizations in over 190 countries. Basically, it’s Google for doctors — searching a huge database (数据库) of articles written by experts in the field, who are all getting information from the latest research.
Wolters Kluwer Health, the company that makes UpToDate, is trying to incorporate (整合) AI so that doctors can have more of a conversation with the database.
Some doctors hope to use AI to comb through a patient’s medical history before an appointment (预约). In some cases, Dr. June-Ho Kim, who directs a program on primary care at Ariadne Labs, says AI technology may also help primary care doctors look after patients without the help of specialists. “It will free up specialists’ time to focus on more difficult cases that they need to really home in on, rather than the ones that could be answered through a few questions,” he says.
Dr. Marc Succi, who was a co-worker of Kim, says, “AI will finally prove to be a trusted medical tool. AI won’t replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace doctors who do not. It will become very common just like designing a PPT on a computer. It’s that level of leap.”
12. How does UpToDate help a doctor
A. It looks after patients. B. It does a temperature test.
C. It offers useful information. D. It leads patients to doctors.
13. What do the underlined words “home in on” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Concentrate on. B. Adapt to.
C. Waste time on. D. Have interest in.
14. What does Succi want to explain by mentioning PPT in the last paragraph
A. The difficulty of writing. B. The user-friendlines s of AI.
C. The importance of a doctor. D. The advantages of office software.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. AI in the Field of Medicine B. The Challenges of AI
C. Changes That AI Has Brought D. Doctors at Home or in the Office
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,本文主要讲AI在医疗领域的应用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When a patient comes in with unknown infection(感染), Mansour turns to a computer program called UpToDate. It’s a common tool, with more than 2 million users at 44,000 health care organizations in over 190 countries. Basically, it’s Google for doctors—searching a huge database(数据库) of articles written by experts in the field, who are all getting information from the latest research.(当有不明感染的病人进来时,Mansour求助于一个名为UpToDate的电脑程序。它是一种常见的工具,在190多个国家的44,000个医疗机构中拥有超过200万用户。基本上,它是医生的谷歌——搜索一个巨大的数据库,里面有该领域专家写的文章,他们都从最新的研究中获取信息)”可知,医生可借助UpToDate 找到有用的信息。故选C。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前“It will free up specialists’ time to focus on more difficult cases(这将使专家腾出时间,专注于他们真正更困难的病例)”可推断,此处指专注于他们真正需要专注的更困难的病例,画线词与Concentrate on 的意思最为接近。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr. Marc Succi, who was a co-worker of Kim, says, “AI will finally prove to be a trusted medical tool. AI won’t replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace doctors who do not. It will become very common just like designing a PPT on a computer. It’s that level of leap.”(Kim博士的同事Marc Succi博士说:‘人工智能最终将被证明是值得信赖的医疗工具。人工智能不会取代医生,但使用人工智能的医生会取代不使用人工智能的医生。它将变得非常普遍,就像在电脑上设计PPT一样。就是那种程度的飞跃。’)”可推断, Succi提及 PPT 是为了说明AI的用户友好性,即它的普及和易用性。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“With artificial intelligence (AI) seemingly working its way into every technology out there, one area where it’s considered particularly promising is in helping doctors.(随着人工智能似乎正在进入每一项技术,其中一个被认为特别有前途的领域是帮助医生)”可知,本文主要讲AI在医疗领域的应用。故选A。

There was a girl called Cary, who was a new student in Esmarth Vil, a primary school in a small town.
She was the most hardworking girl at her school. Her marks were higher than the others. She was the best, but nobody wanted to be her friend. Her classmates didn’t want to play with her and some even laughed at her. Cary’s teacher Jared didn’t know that.
One day, Jared set an exam and Robert, a boy who was the king of all the students, signed his exam paper using Cary’s name, and changed Cary’s name for Robert’s quickly after Cary handed in her paper. It wasn’t noticed by anybody. When Jared returned all the exam Papers, everybody was shocked. Cary failed the exam, but the others seemed to be happy with that.
The next day, when Cary arrived at school, all the children wanted to be with her and invited her to play with them. Although Cary was surprised, she was happy to play with the other children. During their fun time, Jared suddenly appeared to inform Cary that there had been a mistake, and she hadn’t failed.
Jared explained to the students what had happened and punished Robert. After that, they all stopped playing with Cary again.

【答案】One possible version:
Jared was sorry to know what had happened to Cary. He asked Cary to sit down in the office, handing her some tissues, and then asked Cary to tell all the unpleasant things that had happened at school. After Cary poured out her unhappiness, Jared comforted, “You should never keep silent when unhappy things happen at school, and since your academic performance is excellent, why not choose to help the students who are not good at study I believe you can make good friends with them gradually. ” After that, Jared led Cary into the classroom and told his students a story about his own childhood that was similar to Cary’s.
After hearing Jared’s story, all the children decided to change themselves. They apologized to Cary and followed Cary’s example. After class, Cary offered to help her classmates with their study. All the children began to work hard and their marks got improved. They loved being with Cary, studying, playing and laughing together. They were proud to have a friend who got such good marks and made such a big effort at school.

Dede Gardner was born in Chicago in 1967 and studied English at Columbia University. Seventeen years after her graduation, she worked as President of Plan B Entertainment, a production company started by Brad Grey.
At Plan B, Dede finds stories to make into films. Jeremy Kleiner, who is now co-president of Plan B, says Dede was his mentor (导师) before he joined her as a producing partner. “I’ve had the honor to work with her for almost 20 years,” he says. “She’s just a one-of-a-kind person in so many ways. She is very brave and views storytelling as the focus of her films.”
This year, Dede is the only woman to have won two Best Picture Oscars, for Moonlight and 12 Years a Slave. Before, together with Kleiner, she won seven films to Best Picture nominations (提名) including Selma in 2015, The Big Short in 2016 and Minari in 2021.
“Basically, whatever Dede does, it turns to gold,” says Jessie Buckley, one of the stars of Women Talking. “Dede has also changed the culture of making movies. She is always there to make the set feel comfortable when we are obviously coming across difficult things. She’s a great example to follow. She’s very careful with protecting the workers’ voice.”
Dede is actually exploring a much healthier and kinder way to make movies. She’s a producer who consciously thinks about creating a set where there is care. That includes making sure there are therapists (治疗专家) on set for all the workers in case there are emergencies happening.
4. Who set up the company Plan B Entertainment
A. Brad Grey. B. Dede Gardner.
C. Jessie Buckley. D. Jeremy Kleiner.
5. What does Dede value most in her films

The Fire Festival is celebrated in northern Ghana. It’s a holiday we had never heard of before we came to live in a village here as Peace Corps community volunteers. It’s unbelievably great.
On the Fire Festival — Bugim Chug u in the local language — drums beat a quick and regular rhythm that locals dance to in a circle of bodies, men and women, the old and young, holding torches of burning grass above their heads, which stands for the light and getting off negative energies.
At this moment, this festival is being held at the beginning of the lunar year. The locals are all so involved in the celebration that they don’t pay as much attention to us as they normally will. When they find us getting involved as they are, they dance more vigorously and scream with joy.
Danielle, a friend of mine in the Peace Corps, says, “That we join in the celebration is significant because foreigners here are typically seen as the representatives of other organizations, not as people who are willing to join in the Fire Festival rituals (仪式). But in fact, we are dancing and celebrating as one.”
Our two-year Peace Corps service will finish up in mid-November. We can think of no better way to say goodbye than by celebrating the Fire Festival with the villagers we’ve come to know. The festival lets us see a different side of them — and lets them see a different side of us. The neighbors who sell rice are now the women who urge us to run faster and dance harder at the Fire Festival. And rather than view us as low-key (低调的) volunteers, they see us as the ones who have crazy dance steps with wild screams.
8. Why did the author go to northern Ghana
A. To find a job. B. To go traveling.
C. To study further. D. To do voluntary work.
9. How do the locals feel when seeing the author and Danielle join in the celebration
A. Annoyed. B. Excited. C. Confused. D. Worried.
10. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. The steps to dance well.
B. How the locals celebrate the Fire Festival.
C. How the author and Danielle help the locals sell rice.
D. The reason why the author and Danielle joined in the festival.
11. What can we learn from the text
A. Practice makes perfect.
B. Where there is a will, there is a way.
C. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
D. The grass is always greener on the other side.
D
With artificial intelligence (AI) seemingly working its way into every technology out there, one area where it’s considered particularly promising is in helping doctors. And already, AI is entering some doctors’ offices.
Dr. Michael Mansour of Massachusetts General Hospital is an early user who’s helped by a form of AI that could someday change the way doctors get information. When a patient comes in with unknown infection (感染), Mansour turns to a computer program called UpToDate. It’s a common tool, with more than 2 million users at 44,000 health care organizations in over 190 countries. Basically, it’s Google for doctors — searching a huge database (数据库) of articles written by experts in the field, who are all getting information from the latest research.
Wolters Kluwer Health, the company that makes UpToDate, is trying to incorporate (整合) AI so that doctors can have more of a conversation with the database.
Some doctors hope to use AI to comb through a patient’s medical history before an appointment (预约). In some cases, Dr. June-Ho Kim, who directs a program on primary care at Ariadne Labs, says AI technology may also help primary care doctors look after patients without the help of specialists. “It will free up specialists’ time to focus on more difficult cases that they need to really home in on, rather than the ones that could be answered through a few questions,” he says.
Dr. Marc Succi, who was a co-worker of Kim, says, “AI will finally prove to be a trusted medical tool. AI won’t replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace doctors who do not. It will become very common just like designing a PPT on a computer. It’s that level of leap.”
12. How does UpToDate help a doctor
A. It looks after patients. B. It does a temperature test.
C. It offers useful information. D. It leads patients to doctors.
13. What do the underlined words “home in on” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Concentrate on. B. Adapt to.
C. Waste time on. D. Have interest in.
14. What does Succi want to explain by mentioning PPT in the last paragraph
A. The difficulty of writing. B. The user-friendlines s of AI.
C. The importance of a doctor. D. The advantages of office software.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. AI in the Field of Medicine B. The Challenges of AI
C. Changes That AI Has Brought D. Doctors at Home or in the Office
