（2024·湖南怀化·一模）Due to the fact that the average life expectancy in Ghana is 64 years old, and the most common causes of death are largely treatable conditions, such as malaria, stroke, and respiratory infections. Boateng, growing up in a small village in southern Ghana/struggling to access basic health care, felt an urgent call to help and decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana.
Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation, and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those in need in 2021.
A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in Ghana and provide free routine medical care. On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician’s assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis as
well as prescribe and provide medications. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people,” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another.
Since its launch, Boateng says the Hope Health Van has served more than 4, 000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care. To supplement the mobile clinic, Boateng’s organization has also trained 20 volunteers to serve as local health advocates. They check people’s vitals and provide the medical team with timely data for assessing how to move forward with care and treatment, especially for those whose health is at risk.
In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.
4．What inspired Boateng to set his life goal
A．He wanted to get a scholarship.
B．Many locals died of deadly diseases.
C．The birthplace of him was small and poor.
D．Basic health care was inaccessible for locals.
5．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How Boateng’s team functions. B．Why Boateng’s team was founded.
C．What Boateng’s team has achieved. D．Where Boateng’s team has travelled.
6．What is Boateng’s attitude to his team in the future
A．Ambiguous. B．Ambitious. C．Indifferent. D．Doubtful.
7．What is the best title for the text
A．A van bringing medical care to thousands
B．A country lacking basic health care
C．Efforts to provide people with medications
D．Mobile vans travelling through Ghana
【答案】4．D 5．A 6．B 7．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述Boateng的个人故事，展示了他如何致力于改善加纳偏远地区的基本医疗保健服务，并期望将这种模式复制到其他国家。
4．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Boateng, growing up in a small village in southern Ghana/struggling to access
basic health care, felt an urgent call to help and decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana.( Boateng在加纳南部的一个小村庄长大，很难获得基本的医疗保健，他感到迫切需要帮助，并决定把为加纳偏远社区提供医疗保健作为自己的一生使命。)”可知，Boateng在加纳南部的一个小村庄长大，很难获得基本的医疗保健，因此感到迫切需要帮助，所以Boateng决定把为加纳偏远社区提供医疗保健作为自己的一生使命。故选D。
5．主旨大意题。根据文章第三段内容“A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in Ghana and provide free routine medical care. On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician’s assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis as well as prescribe and provide medications. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people,” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another.(流动诊所和医疗队每周几次长途跋涉前往加纳的偏远社区，提供免费的常规医疗服务。每次旅行，Boateng的团队都由一名护士、一名医师助理、一名医生和一名手术助理组成。在这辆面包车里，他们可以进行血液检查和尿液分析等基本实验室，也可以开处方和提供药物。Boateng说：“这对人们来说就像一站式商店。”他补充说，他们看到的大多数人都有这样或那样的健康问题。)”可知，第三段主要讲述的Boateng团队的运作方式，如行医频率、团队组成和工作细则等。故选A。
6．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.(未来，Boateng希望扩大规模，不仅为生活在加纳偏远地区的人们，也为其他国家的人们提供更加稳定和高质量的医疗服务。“我相信我们的模式可以在撒哈拉以南非洲复制，”他说。)”可知，Boateng希望未来不仅为生活在加纳偏远地区的人们，也为其他国家的人们提供更加稳定和高质量的医疗服务。由此可知，Boateng表达了他对自己团队的期望和愿景，他提到“我们有一个更大的愿景——将这种模式复制到非洲其他国家”。这表明他对团队的未来持有雄心勃勃的态度，希望他们能够在更广泛的范围内取得成功和产生影响。故选B。
7．主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation, and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those in need in 2021.( Boateng在学校努力学习，获得了美国康奈尔大学生物学专业的奖学金，并最终获得了医疗管理硕士学位。后来，他创办了自己的非营利组织OKB希望基金会，并将一辆面包车改装成移动医生办公室，名为“Hope Health Van”，于2021年直接为有需要的人提供医疗服
务。)”以及全文内容可知，文本主要讲述了Boateng通过他的非营利组织以及Hope Health Van来改善加纳偏远社区的医疗保健服务的努力。这辆车直接为有需要的人提供医疗服务，为加纳多个农村社区的超过4000人提供服务。因此，选项A“A van bringing medical care to thousands (一辆为数千人带来医疗服务的车)”准确地概括了文本的主要内容和重点。故选A。
C
（2024·江苏南通·三模）In a recent study of healthy volunteers, National Institutes of Health researchers discovered that our brains may replay memories of learning new skills when we rest.
NIH researchers have mapped out the brain activity that flows when we learn a new skill, such as playing a new song on the piano, and found that during short rest the volunteers’ brains rapidly and repeatedly replayed faster versions of the activity seen while they practiced typing a code. The more a volunteer replayed the activity the better they performed during subsequent practice sessions.
The study was conducted at the NIH Clinical Center. The team of Dr. Cohen, M.D．, senior investigator at the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), used a highly sensitive scanning technique to record the brain waves of 33 healthy, right-handed volunteers as they learned to type a five-digit test code with their left hands. The subjects sat in a chair and under the scanner’s long, cone-shaped cap. An experiment began when a subject was shown the code “41234” on a screen and asked to type it out as many times as possible for 10 seconds and then take a 10 second break. Subjects were asked to repeat this cycle of alternating (交替的) practice and rest sessions a total of 35 times.
During the first few trials, the speed at which subjects correctly typed the code improved dramatically and then leveled off around the 11th cycle. In a previous study, Dr. Cohen’s team showed that most of these gains happened during short rests, and not when the subjects were typing. Moreover, the gains were greater than those made after a night’s sleep and were related with a decrease in the size of brain waves, called beta rhythms. In this new report, the researchers searched for something different in the subjects’ brain waves.
“We wanted to explore the mechanisms (机制) behind memory strengthening seen during wakeful rest. Several forms of memory appear to rely on the replaying of neural (神经的) activity, so we decided to test this idea out for procedural skill learning,” said Ethan R. Buch, Ph.D．, a staff scientist on Dr. Cohen’s team and leader of the study. To do this, Dr. Buch developed a computer program which allowed the team to understand the brain wave activity associated with typing each number in the test code.
Interestingly, they found that the more a volunteer replayed, the better their performance was. “We were a bit
surprised by these last results. Overall, our results support the idea that the replay activity during waking rest may be a powerful tool that researchers can use to help individuals learn new skills faster and possibly facilitate recovery from stroke.” said Dr. Cohen.
8．What have NIH researchers recently found
A．The brain activity slowly flows when we learn a new skill.
B．The value of short practice sessions can’t be overestimated.
C．Short rest makes no difference to the neural replay of the activity.
D．The frequency of brain replay contributes to practice performances.
9．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3
A．The process of the research.
B．The facilities of the research.
C．The application of the research.
D．The preparations of the research.
10．Why did Dr. Buch develop a computer program
A．To distinguish the first 11 cycles from the later ones.
B．To confirm the role of neural replay in skill learning.
C．To explore the potential effects of procedural learning.
D．To find out the reasons for the changes in brain waves.
11．What does Dr. Cohen think of the research findings
A．Acceptable.
B．Promising.
C．Shallow.
D．Dismissive.
【答案】8．D 9．A 10．B 11．A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍一研究中，研究人员发现当人们休息时，大脑可能会重放学习新技能的记忆。
8．细节理解题。根据第二段“NIH researchers have mapped out the brain activity that flows when we learn a new skill, such as playing a new song on the piano, and found that during short rest the volunteers’ brains rapidly and repeatedly replayed faster versions of the activity seen while they practiced typing a code. The more a volunteer
replayed the activity the better they performed during subsequent practice sessions. (美国国立卫生研究院的研究人员绘制出了我们学习一项新技能时的大脑活动，比如在钢琴上弹奏一首新歌。他们发现，在短暂的休息期间，志愿者的大脑会快速地、反复地重播他们练习打字时看到的更快版本的活动。志愿者重复练习的次数越多，他们在随后的练习中表现就越好)”可知，美国国立卫生研究院的研究人员最近发现大脑回放的频率有助于练习表现。故选D。
9．主旨大意题。根据第三段“The study was conducted at the NIH Clinical Center. The team of Dr. Cohen, M.D., senior investigator at the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), used a highly sensitive scanning technique to record the brain waves of 33 healthy, right-handed volunteers as they learned to type a five-digit test code with their left hands.

（23-24高三下·河南焦作·阶段练习）Carl Wieman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist at Standford University, excelled in the lab, where he created the Bose-Einstein condensate (玻色—爱因斯坦凝聚态). However, his mastery in the lab did not extend to the classroom. For years, he wrestled with what seemed to be a straightforward task: making undergraduates comprehend physics as he did. Laying it out for them — explaining, even demonstrating the core concepts of the discipline—was not working. Despite his clear explanations, his students’ capacity to solve the problems he posed to them remained inadequate.
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.
12．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.
13．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.
14．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.
15．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
【答案】12．D 13．A 14．C 15．D
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了诺贝尔奖获得者美国斯坦福大学教授Carl Wieman试图帮助本科生提高解决问题的能力而进行了教学创新，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。
12．细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“Despite his clear explanations, his students’ capacity to solve the problems he posed to them remained inadequate.(尽管他解释得很清楚，但他的学生解决他提出的问题的能力仍然不足)”可知，他的学生（本科生）仍然无法提高解决他提出的问题的能力，即他在提高学生的物理解题能力方面遇到了问题。故选D项。
13．推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“When his PH.D. candidates entered the lab, Wieman noticed, their habits of thought were no less narrow and rigid than the undergraduates.(Wieman注意到，当他的博士候选人，即，研究生们进入实验室时，他们的思维习惯和本科生一样狭隘和僵化)”可知，初入实验室时的他们思维习惯和本科生一样狭隘和僵化。由此推知，选项A“Limited in thinking.(思维有限)”是对刚开始进入实验室的研究生的描述。故选A项。
14．细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“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, designing experiments, and analyzing data was closely related to the students’ engagement with their peers in the lab…(该报告的作者在四年的时间里追踪了数百名科学研究生的智力发展，发现关键技能的发展，如提出假设、设计实验和分析数据，与学生在实验室与同龄人的互动密切相关……)”可知，2019年的研究发现关键技能的发展，比如提出假设、设计实验和分析数据等这些思维方面的关键技能，与学生
在实验室与同龄人的互动密切相关。故选C项。
15．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段的总结“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，Wieman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)”可知，文章主要讲述了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，并找到了解决方案——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，从而将“主动学习”的方法引入课程。由此可知，选项D“Carl Wieman’s Education Innovation(Carl Wieman的教育创新) ”适合作本文标题。故选D项。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
（2024·湖北黄冈·三模）In our modern economy, accelerated learning can be crucial for success. Learning faster means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following bine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths
When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas, and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that play to your strengths. Seek First to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose
18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)Modes
Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time. 19 Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode — a more relaxed state.
Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20
A．You can benefit a lot from staying focused.
B．Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.
C．You should try to choose whatever you like best.
D．Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.
E．Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.
F．Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.
G．You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors.
【答案】16．B 17．G 18．D 19．F 20．E
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些技巧以帮助人们更加有效地进行快速学习。
16．根据空后的“Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following techniques. (任何人都可以向他们学习，并通过以下技巧加速他们的学习过程)”可推测，空处提到了一些会快速学习的人。选项B“Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.(聪明的学习者没有什么特别的秘密。)”中的“Smart learners”与下文的“them”保持一致，内容上也自然引出下文内容。故选B。
17．根据标题“Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths (结合能发挥你优势的学习方式)”以及空前的“When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. (当你的目标是加速你的学习，你选择学习不应该局限于课程或课堂结构)”可知，我们可以选择学习课程或课堂之外的内容；而下文“Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process.(根据你的学习方式选择不同的材料可以加速或减缓你的理解过程)”则指出不同的学习内容选择不同的学习方式。选项G“You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors. (实际上，您可以从许多来源、专家和作者中选择内容。)”与上下文内容一致，指的是选择不同的学习内容，并采用适当的学习方式。故选G。
18．根据下文“So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics.(所以你需要先了解基础知识。换句话说，你必须了解树的根，树干，然后从那里伸出树枝。不要从枝叶入手，要追根溯源，直达主题。因此，无论你选择学习或研究什么主题，都要从基础开始)”可知，我们要了解自己所学内容的结构。选项D“Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.(每个话题或主题都有一个逻辑结构。)”自然引出下文内容，指出每个话题或主题都有一个逻辑结构，所以我们应该了解自己所学内容的逻辑结构。故选D。
19．根据空前内容“Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time.(正常情
况下，人类的大脑不会一次保持几个小时的“专注”模式)”可知，人类大脑不会一直保持专注。选项F“Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.(长时间专注于一项任务会阻碍记忆和回忆。)”与上文内容一致，指的是人类大脑不能一直保持专注，同时引出下文“Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode—a more relaxed state.(因此，当你的大脑长时间处于活跃状态时，你实际上是在阻碍你进入扩散模式——一种更放松的状态)”。故选F。
20．根据上文内容“Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So—just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections.(因此，扩散模式和聚焦模式一样有价值。所以，只要休息一下，让你的思想游离，想想其他事情，给你的大脑足够的时间来建立更好的联系)”可知，上文提出我们应该劳逸结合。选项E“Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.(然后你可以通过给自己一些休息时间来学得更好。)”与上文内容相符，指出休息会让学习效果更好。故选E。

However, Mary, our honored Spanish teacher, who was full of creativity, made her class fun from the beginning. I knew what to expect with a schedule for each week, but there was always some slight 22 .
Before the exam, Mary often asked us to 23 our lessons by ourselves. But I could remember one day she said, “This time, let’s play a game before going over what you’ve learned.” The game was so interesting that we all 24 ourselves. After the exam, Mary gave us opportunities to make up for our 25 . After each error correction, she would check again. She took things so 26 that she wouldn’t overlook any detail. No wonder she was 27 by us.
Mary was 28 and willing to help, within reason, on everything. We could ask her questions at any time. She encouraged everyone to speak Spanish in class. Because of that, I was 29 enough, and then I could communicate with Spanish speakers outside of class. When she knew our problems, she would give advice. When someone was struggling, she would 30 .

（22-23高三上·湖北武汉·期末）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Learning Chinese calligraphy 36 (list) as one of the must-do things when I came to China. Now, I’m in the course of learning this unique art, 37 value is considered very high in China, even across East Asia today. It is not only 38 ancient artistic form of human language, but it also reflects Chinese traditions.
As someone who paints, draws, and loves all 39 (create) things, at first, I assumed I would be rather good at Chinese calligraphy. I was 40 (total ) wrong. Using thick brush tips to produce awkward brush strokes (笔画) 41 (be) very difficult for a beginner. I have no idea about the different types of calligraphy and the meanings 42 ( hide) behind each one. Also, I have to hold the paintbrush 43 a very specific way; unlike a pen or pencil, the paintbrush is held upright in the hand. I need to be extra careful when changing the angle or 44 (direct) of the brush, especially if I press too hard on the paper.
After taking the lesson, I now understand the difficulty of calligraphy and that it will take efforts and commitment 45 (master) this art form. Yet, I am grateful to learn such a special Chinese tradition.
【答案】36．was listed 37．whose 38．an 39．creative 40．totally 41．is 42．hidden 43．in 44．direction 45．to master
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位热爱艺术的外国人学习中国书法的经历。
36．考查动词时态语态。句意：当我来到中国时，学习中国书法被列为必须做的事情之一。根据“when I came
to China”可知，此处应用一般过去时，动词list意为“列举”，和主语构成被动关系，需用被动语态，主语为动名词短语，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填was listed。
37．考查定语从句。句意：现在，我正在学习这门独特的艺术，它的价值在中国甚至在今天的东亚都被认为非常高。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是art，在从句中作value的定语，应用关系代词whose引导。故填whose。
38．考查冠词。句意：它不仅是人类语言的一种古老艺术形式，而且反映了中国的传统。名词form意为“形式”，为可数名词，此处为第一次出现，所以应用不定冠词表示泛指，ancient是以元音音素开头的词，应用an。故填an。
39．考查形容词。句意：作为一个绘画、作图和热爱一切创造性事物的人，一开始，我以为我会相当擅长中国书法。修饰名词things，应用形容词creative，表示“创造性的”，作定语。故填creative。
40．考查副词。句意：我完全错了。修饰形容词wrong，应用副词totally，表示“完全地”作状语。故填totally。
41．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：对于初学者来说，使用粗笔尖来产生难处理的笔触是非常困难的。此处描述客观事实，所以应用一般现在时，动名词短语作主语，谓语应用第三人称单数。故填is。
42．考查非谓语动词。句意：我不知道书法的不同类型以及每一种书法背后隐藏的含义。动词hide意为“隐藏”，和谓语之间没有连词，需填非谓语动词形式，hide和逻辑主语meanings构成被动关系，所以应用过去分词作后置定语。故填hidden。
43．考查介词。句意：此外，我必须以一种非常特殊的方式握住画笔；与钢笔或铅笔不同，画笔笔直地握在手中。in a…way为固定搭配，意为“用一种……的方式”。故填in。
44．考查名词。句意：在改变画笔的角度或方向时，我需要格外小心，尤其是当我用力按压纸张时。此处应用名词direction表示“方向”作动词changing的宾语。故填direction。
45．考查非谓语动词。句意：在上了这堂课之后，我现在明白了书法的难度，需要努力和投入才能掌握这种艺术形式。此处用it作形式主语，to do不定式为真正的主语。故填to master。

（2024·福建福州·模拟预测）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。
I didn’t like Del so much. He always called me the nickname “Germy”, which meant “dirty”, instead of my real name “Jamie”. Besides, he was known as a trouble-maker in school. So when the head teacher Mr. Smith asked Del to come to his office, I naturally thought that Del had done something mean to someone. Through the window, I caught sight of a smaller boy crying. Del seemed unhappy, too.
He did not return to class that day. All of us were discussing what had happened to him. What else could such an annoying boy do “He must have hit the boy and was sent home,” I whispered to my friends. Their eyes widened. It felt good to see them so interested in what I said.
The next morning, the whole school was talking about Del being expelled(开除) for beating up a kid. I was surprised that my assumptions were passed on so quickly. So when Del walked into the classroom, all the kids were shocked. The kids next to him shift ed their desks away. “What’s your problem ” Del asked. “I don’t want you to attack me,” one kid said. Some laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I could tell he was joking, but many kids thought he admitted he did beat up someone.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried to join the kickball game. “Neither team wants you,” one of the players said. “Why ” Del asked, looking confused. “I always play with you guys.” They ignored him and went on playing. Del sat by himself while the rest of the school enjoyed their recess away from him. Del looked lonely and sad,
much different from before. I started to feel sorry for him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brother and he was crying because their mother fell ill and was sent to hospital. I felt even sorrier for what I said before. I started a rumor(谣言).

Now that Del had forgiven me, I decided to do more before the recess was over.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】At recess the next day, I saw Del sitting alone watching the kickball game. Not wanting him to feel left out, I walked over and sat down beside him. “Hey Germy,” he said. “My name is Jamie.” I replied. I wanted to apologize for starting that rumor about him, but I was too ashamed to say it out loudly. “Del, do you want to play kickball with us ” I asked instead. He looked surprised but happy at the same time. After a moment of silence, he nodded his head.
Now that Del had forgiven me, I decided to do more before the recess was over. I stood up and shouted to the other kids, “Guys, come here! Let’s play kickball together! ” Some of them hesitated, but they eventually joined us. Del was smiling again and so were we. As we played, I realized that Del wasn’t as bad as I thought he was. He was just a normal kid who wanted to have fun and be accepted by others. From then on, whenever someone tried to start a rumor about him, I would stand up for him and tell them the truth about Del. We became good friends, and I learned an important lesson about judging people based on rumors.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者不喜欢一个名叫Del的同学，因为那同学总是称呼作者外号，并且是有名的捣蛋鬼。一次校长把Del叫去办公室，作者透过窗户看到另一个小男孩在哭泣，Del也不高兴，作者认为Del打了人，要被学校开除了，就把自己想象的结果传播给同学，同学们信以为真。Del回到学校后，大家都不和他玩，他很孤独。后来作者知道了真相，校长把Del叫去办公室，是因为他妈妈病了，那个哭泣的小孩是Del的弟弟。作者知道自己传播了谣言，感觉对不起Del，作者主动和Del打招呼，带动其他同学和Del一起玩。他们最终成为好朋友的故事。

（2024·湖南怀化·一模）Due to the fact that the average life expectancy in Ghana is 64 years old, and the most common causes of death are largely treatable conditions, such as malaria, stroke, and respiratory infections. Boateng, growing up in a small village in southern Ghana/struggling to access basic health care, felt an urgent call to help and decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana.
Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation, and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those in need in 2021.
A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in Ghana and provide free routine medical care. On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician’s assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis as well as prescribe and provide medications. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people,” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another.
Since its launch, Boateng says the Hope Health Van has served more than 4, 000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care. To supplement the mobile clinic, Boateng’s organization has also trained 20 volunteers to serve as local health advocates. They check people’s vitals and provide the medical team with timely data for assessing how to move forward with care and treatment, especially for those whose health is at risk.
In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.
4．What inspired Boateng to set his life goal
A．He wanted to get a scholarship.
B．Many locals died of deadly diseases.
C．The birthplace of him was small and poor.
D．Basic health care was inaccessible for locals.
5．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How Boateng’s team functions. B．Why Boateng’s team was founded.
C．What Boateng’s team has achieved. D．Where Boateng’s team has travelled.
6．What is Boateng’s attitude to his team in the future
A．Ambiguous. B．Ambitious. C．Indifferent. D．Doubtful.
7．What is the best title for the text
A．A van bringing medical care to thousands
B．A country lacking basic health care
C．Efforts to provide people with medications
D．Mobile vans travelling through Ghana

（2024·江苏南通·三模）In a recent study of healthy volunteers, National Institutes of Health researchers discovered that our brains may replay memories of learning new skills when we rest.
NIH researchers have mapped out the brain activity that flows when we learn a new skill, such as playing a new song on the piano, and found that during short rest the volunteers’ brains rapidly and repeatedly replayed faster versions of the activity seen while they practiced typing a code. The more a volunteer replayed the activity the better they performed during subsequent practice sessions.
The study was conducted at the NIH Clinical Center. The team of Dr. Cohen, M.D．, senior investigator at the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), used a highly sensitive scanning technique to record the brain waves of 33 healthy, right-handed volunteers as they learned to type a five-digit test code with their left hands. The subjects sat in a chair and under the scanner’s long, cone-shaped cap. An experiment began when a subject was shown the code “41234” on a screen and asked to type it out as many times as possible for 10 seconds and then take a 10 second break. Subjects were asked to repeat this cycle of alternating (交替的) practice and rest sessions a total of 35 times.
During the first few trials, the speed at which subjects correctly typed the code improved dramatically and then leveled off around the 11th cycle. In a previous study, Dr. Cohen’s team showed that most of these gains happened during short rests, and not when the subjects were typing. Moreover, the gains were greater than those
made after a night’s sleep and were related with a decrease in the size of brain waves, called beta rhythms. In this new report, the researchers searched for something different in the subjects’ brain waves.
“We wanted to explore the mechanisms (机制) behind memory strengthening seen during wakeful rest. Several forms of memory appear to rely on the replaying of neural (神经的) activity, so we decided to test this idea out for procedural skill learning,” said Ethan R. Buch, Ph.D．, a staff scientist on Dr. Cohen’s team and leader of the study. To do this, Dr. Buch developed a computer program which allowed the team to understand the brain wave activity associated with typing each number in the test code.
Interestingly, they found that the more a volunteer replayed, the better their performance was. “We were a bit surprised by these last results. Overall, our results support the idea that the replay activity during waking rest may be a powerful tool that researchers can use to help individuals learn new skills faster and possibly facilitate recovery from stroke.” said Dr. Cohen.
8．What have NIH researchers recently found
A．The brain activity slowly flows when we learn a new skill.
B．The value of short practice sessions can’t be overestimated.
C．Short rest makes no difference to the neural replay of the activity.
D．The frequency of brain replay contributes to practice performances.
9．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3
A．The process of the research.
B．The facilities of the research.
C．The application of the research.
D．The preparations of the research.
10．Why did Dr. Buch develop a computer program
A．To distinguish the first 11 cycles from the later ones.
B．To confirm the role of neural replay in skill learning.
C．To explore the potential effects of procedural learning.
D．To find out the reasons for the changes in brain waves.

（23-24高三下·河南焦作·阶段练习）Carl Wieman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist at Standford University, excelled in the lab, where he created the Bose-Einstein condensate (玻色—爱因斯坦凝聚态). However, his mastery in the lab did not extend to the classroom. For years, he wrestled with what seemed to be a straightforward task: making undergraduates comprehend physics as he did. Laying it out for them — explaining, even demonstrating the core concepts of the discipline—was not working. Despite his clear explanations, his students’ capacity to solve the problems he posed to them remained inadequate.
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.
12．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.
13．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.
14．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.
15．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

（2024·湖北黄冈·三模）In our modern economy, accelerated learning can be crucial for success. Learning faster means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their learning process with the following bine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths
When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas, and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that play to your strengths. Seek First to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose
18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)Modes
Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time. 19 Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused mode — a more relaxed state.
Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20
A．You can benefit a lot from staying focused.
B．Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.
C．You should try to choose whatever you like best.
D．Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.
E．Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.
F．Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.
G．You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors.

I knew what to expect with a schedule for each week, but there was always some slight 22 .
Before the exam, Mary often asked us to 23 our lessons by ourselves. But I could remember one day she said, “This time, let’s play a game before going over what you’ve learned.” The game was so interesting that we all 24 ourselves. After the exam, Mary gave us opportunities to make up for our 25 . After each error correction, she would check again. She took things so 26 that she wouldn’t overlook any detail. No wonder she was 27 by us.
Mary was 28 and willing to help, within reason, on everything. We could ask her questions at any time. She encouraged everyone to speak Spanish in class. Because of that, I was 29 enough, and then I could communicate with Spanish speakers outside of class. When she knew our problems, she would give advice. When someone was struggling, she would 30 .
Mary’s 31 teaching eventually transformed my 32 into fascination. She infused (灌输) foreign culture into lessons, using music and dance to 33 our language skills. Her personalized attention to each student’s needs fostered a(n) 34 environment. At the end of the term, my Spanish improved, and my confidence soared. Mary left a lasting impact on my 35 for new challenges.

Learning Chinese calligraphy 36 (list) as one of the must-do things when I came to China. Now, I’m in the course of learning this unique art, 37 value is considered very high in China, even across East Asia today. It is not only 38 ancient artistic form of human language, but it also reflects Chinese traditions.
As someone who paints, draws, and loves all 39 (create) things, at first, I assumed I would be rather good at Chinese calligraphy. I was 40 (total ) wrong. Using thick brush tips to produce awkward brush strokes (笔画) 41 (be) very difficult for a beginner. I have no idea about the different types of calligraphy and the meanings 42 ( hide) behind each one. Also, I have to hold the paintbrush 43 a very specific way; unlike a pen or pencil, the paintbrush is held upright in the hand. I need to be extra careful when changing the angle or 44 (direct) of the brush, especially if I press too hard on the paper.
After taking the lesson, I now understand the difficulty of calligraphy and that it will take efforts and commitment 45 (master) this art form. Yet, I am grateful to learn such a special Chinese tradition.

第二节 (满分25分)
（2024·福建福州·模拟预测）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。
I didn’t like Del so much. He always called me the nickname “Germy”, which meant “dirty”, instead of my real name “Jamie”. Besides, he was known as a trouble-maker in school. So when the head teacher Mr. Smith asked Del to come to his office, I naturally thought that Del had done something mean to someone. Through the window, I caught sight of a smaller boy crying. Del seemed unhappy, too.
He did not return to class that day. All of us were discussing what had happened to him. What else could such an annoying boy do “He must have hit the boy and was sent home,” I whispered to my friends. Their eyes widened. It felt good to see them so interested in what I said.
The next morning, the whole school was talking about Del being expelled(开除) for beating up a kid. I was surprised that my assumptions were passed on so quickly. So when Del walked into the classroom, all the kids were shocked. The kids next to him shift ed their desks away. “What’s your problem ” Del asked. “I don’t want you to attack me,” one kid said. Some laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I could tell he was joking, but many kids thought he admitted he did beat up someone.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried to join the kickball game. “Neither team wants you,” one of the players said. “Why ” Del asked, looking confused. “I always play with you guys.” They ignored him and went on playing. Del sat by himself while the rest of the school enjoyed their recess away from him. Del looked lonely and sad, much different from before. I started to feel sorry for him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brother and he was crying because their mother fell ill and was sent to hospital. I felt even sorrier for what I said before. I started a rumor(谣言).
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。
At recess the next day, I saw Del sitting alone watching the kickball game.

Now that Del had forgiven me, I decided to do more before the recess was over.
