At the end of 2019,I learned that Here After AI, whose goal is to let the living communicate with the dead, was looking for applicants of its new AI project. Interested in what it was promising, I applied to experiment the software on my very-much-alive parents.
At first, I thought it would be just a fun project to see what was technologically possible. Then their health condition added some urgency to the experiment. I was frightened that my parents might die since my father had been diagnosed with cancer and my mother was recently developing symptoms of early Alzheimer's disease, and that with the distance between us, I might never have the chance to say goodbye.
The first step was an interview. My parents were asked questions by a techician for hours-about everything from their earliest memories to what they believe will happen after they die. Whether through illness-generated concerns or a willingness to humor their daughter, my parents put up zero resistance. The company then took their responses and started to create the voice assistants. A few months later, my virtual parents arrived via email attachment.
When I communicated with them through the app on my phone, my hands were shaking. I hadn't seen my actual,real parents for six months. They told me personal stories I'd never heard. They gave me life advice and told me things about their childhoods, as well as my own. It was mesmerizing.
Personally,I have mixed feelings about my experiment. I'm glad to have my virtual parents.They've enabled me to learn new things about my parents,and it's comforting to think that those softwares will be there even when myparents aren't. On the other hand, I can't help but find it sad that it took a stranger interviewing my parents for me to properly appreciate the complex people they are. But I feel lucky to have had the chance to grasp that-and to still have the precious opportunity to spend more time with them and learn more about them, face to face, no technology involved.
24. Why did the author initially join the AI project
A.To test out the new technology.
B.To preserve her parents' voice.
C.To learn more about her parents' life.
D.To remove the worry about her parents' health.
25. What can we learn about the author's parents
A. They liked talking a lot.
B. They died from the illnesses.
C. They opposed joining the project at first.
D. They provided data for the project.
26.What does the underlined word “mesmerizing" mean in paragraph 4
A.Alarming. B. Fascinating. C.Inspiring. D.Disgusting.
27.What does the author realize at last
A. AI means never saying goodbye to our parents.
B.The advances in AI technology have pros and cons.
C. The real connection with our parents matters most.
D. AI allows us to learn more about our virtual parents.
C
Peru is prepared to approve new laws that would make it easier to investigate and punish researchers who engage in academic cheating, including paying to have their names added to a paper.
The move comes as Peru's national science agency seeks to crack down on authorship buying and other dishonest practices. It recently removed two scientists accused of dishonest publications from a national registry that is key to receiving government sponsor, job promotions, and salary bonuses. And officials are investigating more than 170 other researchers at a Peruvian media report claimed were involved in academic misconduct, including 72 listed in the national registry who work at 14 universities in Peru.
The new laws will empower universities and government officials to punish such behavior. Dishonest publishing practices “ transcend mere moral misbehavior” because they enable researchers to obtain government and privatefunding without telling the truth,says Edward Málaga Trillo,a member of Congress who is the driving force, behind the bills, which lawmakers are expected to finalize early this year. "These individuals are operating academic cheating.” Peru's academic community has been struggling with a rising tide of false authorship and related problems. One cause, some researchers say, is a 2014 law that aimed to stimulate research by rewarding researchers who boost their publishing output. For example, under a scoring system used by universities,researchers can earn five points for authorship in a high-impact journal, and two points when the journal is lower impact.A massing points can bring bonus payments and career promotion.
Signs of dishonest publishing can be obvious, notes Nahuel onteblanco,president of Cientificos.pe, a Peruvian group that investigates misconduct.Many of the papers cited by Punto Final have numerous co-authors from different nations with few prior publications onthe same subject.“If your colleague consistently publishes 20 articles a year with co-authors from other countries, that's highly suspect.” Monteblanco says.
28. What action did Peru take recently to address academic cheating
A.Disqualifying 2 scientists from a national registry.
B.Fining 72 offenders for academic dishonesty.
C.Punishing 170 researchers for academic misconduct.
D.Withdrawing government fund from 14 universities.
29.What's Edward Málaga Trillo's attitude to the new law
A. Opposed. B. Concerned. C.Approving. D. Neutral.
30.What do we know about the 2014 law in Peru
A. It advocated a fair scoring system.
B. It applied to high-impact journals.
C. It aimed to punish dishonest publishing.
D.It led to an increase in false authorship.
31.The most suspicion might be given to a productive researcher with
A. Career promotion.
B. Consistent research focus.
C. Co-authors from various countries.
D.Few citations by Punto Final.
D
In the U.S., people eat more protein than they need to, which might not be bad for human health, but does posè a problem for the country's waterways.The nation's wastewater is loaded with the leftovers from protein digestion:nitrogen compounds(氮化合物)that can feed harmful algal blooms(藻华)and pollute the air and drinking water.
Maya Almaraz,a biogeochemist at the University of California, Davis, and her team wanted tó see how much of this nitrogen entered into the U.S.wastewater system because of a protein-heavy diet. The researchers found that the majority of nitrogen pollution present in wastewater-some 67 to 100percent-is a by-product of what people consume.
Once it enters the environment, the nitrogen can have a series of ecological impacts. It helps algae grow much faster than they would nomally, which is harmful to humans, other animals and plants. And when the algae eventually die,the problem is not over. Microorganisms(微生物) that feed on dead algae use up oxygen in the water, leading to “dead zones”, where many species simply cannot survive, in rivers, lakes and oceans.
Although it is possible to treat algal blooms, many of the current methods are not always effective at getting rid of all of the harmful growth. Some of these methods can even lead to additional pollution. So te best strategy for dealing with the effects of nitrogen pollution is prevention, says Patricia Glibert,an ocean scientist at the University of Maryland. Almaraz and her team state that controlling nitrogen pollution could be approached more quickly with a change in eating habits that could save billions of dollars in the long term.
32.Which aspect of Americans' diet does Almaraz's research focus on
A.Its effect. B. Its algal blooms.
C.Its amount. D.Its nitrogen compounds.
33.What causes“dead zones” in the water
A. Death of lots of healthy algae.
B. No oxygen for many species.
C.Microorganisms' over-consumption of nutrients.
D.Poisonous chemicals released by harmful algae.
34.What can we learn about the current treatments for algal blooms
A.They are costly but inefficient.
B.They are slow to take effect.
C. They may kill all algae.
D.They may cause secondary pollution.
35. What is the best title for the text
A.Why the Algae Grow So Rapidly
B.Why Eating Too Much Protein Harms the Planet
C. How to Prevent the Air and Water Pollution
D.How to Solve the Problem of Wastewater

How to give effective feedback(反馈)
In the ever-evolving landscape of personal and professional growth,feedback serves as a compass(指南针)guiding our journey towards improvement.____36Constructive feedback should follow several principles.
37 It's not unusual to tell someone about something that upset or pleased you six months later. It's also easy for people to start from the point of view of “everything you do is rubbish”, especially when things are not going well. But don't. Think about exact and precise occasions and behavior that are still fresh in both the giver's and receiver's minds.
Lay stress on behavior, not personality. Your feedback should target how they act,what effects it has on you or how it makes you feel. Remember that you are making no comment on what type of person they are, or what they believe or value. 38
Focus on improvement rather than criticism. It is expressed in a manner that encourages growth and avoids being negative. To take it a step further, it also provides suggestions for change. 39______ It involves putting constructive criticism between positive or encouraging comments. For example,when discussing a project with an employee, start by praising their hard work, then add the areas for improvement, and conclude with encouragement.
Offering effective feedback to others is a win-win act. 40 __Both of you get a slice of personal development. To develop better feedback skills,you need to keep practicing and make it a habit. Anyway, practice makes perfect!
A. Adopt a tolerant attitude.
B. Be timely and specific.
C. So giving feedback is like making sandwiches.
D.But you can get better at it after reading the principles.
E. It's just like sharing a pizza with a friend.
F. This reduces the risk of making the receiver feel attacked.
G. However, it can be difficult to give feedback effectively.

Now we always find time to play tennis. We're both eager for an activity that can 54  tensions between us in daily life. It's nice to have a place where both of us can release our 55 feelings and let them go.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
It was a cold, snowy evening. Tommy was running as fast as he could,focused on nothing but his destination-the shop on the street corner. Two weeks ago he saw figurines(小塑像)of Marvel superheroes on the shelves and felt he had to have one. He's been walking the neighbor's dog ever since then to earn money to fulfil his little dream. He was so excited and barely noticing the world around him. Maybe that's why he tripped over the legs of a homeless woman, who was sitting on the pavement, her back against the wall. He murmured(低语)“sorry”and moved on to his destination.
Once he entered the shop, he went straight to the shelves with figurines.Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Iron Man, and many more--all of his admired heroes.With his heart pounding like crazy he reached for Spiderman.
"You like these,-true believer "
Tommy turned around. An old man was standing behind him with a wide smile on his face.
“Y-yes,...Yes, they're awesome!” answered Tommy.“They're strong and fast and help other people a lot..." the boy looked at figurines in admiration. “Iwish I could be a superhero too."
“Then become one!” said the old man.
“How ” Tommy asked in surprise. “I don't have any superpowers.”
“And why would you need them ” the old man smiled. Seeing the confusion on the boy's face, he squatted(蹲下)and put his hands on Tommy's arms.“Did you know that shopkeeper lady over there has a disabled husband She's been working hard and taking care of him for years. I've never heard a word of complaint from her. And this person-"he pointed at a redhead man,who just entered the shop. “He's a firefighter; he's saved countless lives. He never gives up, no matter how dangerous the situation seems to be.”
The old man looked Tommy in the eyes and smiled. “You don't need a superpower to be a hero for someone else. The path of a superhero starts not in the mind, not in the muscles,but in the heart.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely.
                
The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time.

六、小作文
Dear Adam,
Hope this email finds you well. I’m Li Hua, writing to share some concerns regarding our English drama elective class.
It has come to my attention that the choice of scripts may not be engaging enough for all students,and the timing seems to conflict with other important school activities. To address these problems,it is better to hold a meeting to discuss how we can choose suitable scrips and the appropriate time.
Should it be possible, I truly hope you can take my suggestion into consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Li Hua
七、大作文
Tommy lowered his head and looked at his shoes thinking intensely. Finally he raised his head. “So I am supposed to...” he stopped mid-sentence when he realized that he was alone. He turned his head left and right, but the old man was nowhere to be seen. His eyes lit up—he already had an idea of what he should do. He looked at figurines for the last time and moved towards the counter. “Two sandwiches and a cup of tea please, ”he said, and then returned, food in hand.
The homeless woman was right there, where he saw her last time. Tommy came closer and carefully gave the woman what he had bought. Her eyes opened wide in surprise, then filled with tears. “Thank you,” she whispered. Tommy bowed his head, turned around and went back home. He was moving faster and faster and finally he started to run. Strange energy filling his body made him feel like he could fly. When he finally stopped, he was breathing heavily, but he didn’t feel tired. He smiled happily — it was a wonderful feeling. And nothing could stop it.

W: We’re developing a new technology that can detect forest fires as soon as they start. (14)
M: That sounds amazing. Given how many fires there have been recently, it’s something the world extremely needs.
W: Indeed. In 2020 alone, California had over 8, 000 fires, losing roughly 4% of the state’s trees.
M: That is truly surprising.
W: Yes. The other place where it will be useful is Australia. At the start of the year, there were 50 separate forest fires burning across the country.
M: So how will your new detection system work (14)(15)
W: We’re going to use a new range of satellites which have heat cameras. (15)
M: Don’t other satellites have those
W: Yes, but none is so advanced. They can detect a fire the size of a football field. The new system can sense a fire the size of a car. (16)
M: And will that be enough of a difference to stop the fire from spreading
W: We believe so. Hopefully it will give firefighters enough time to stop it before it gets too big. If they get the plane up in time, they will put out the fire quickly.
M: If it works, I really hope you get recognition for it.
W: I just want to try and stop trees from burning, and more importantly, protect the poor animals that live in them. (17)

W: Today, let’s begin with note-taking techniques. (18) Note-taking is an important skill not only for taking classes, but also for doing your job in the future. I’d like to draw your attention to certain points about taking notes. First, remember that note-taking should be 75% listening and only 25% writing. (19) So don’t try to write down every single word the teacher says. Ignore what is unimportant and write in phrases not complete sentences. Second, leave spaces and lines between main ideas. You may want to add some information later. I find that some of you are good at making use of color, mapping web and symbols such as arrows, circles and boxes. I highly recommend these tools to all of you, because the use of them makes the outline more easily readable and interesting than the blocks of text. It also makes sure that important words stand out. (20) Here are some examples ...
A短文
本文介绍了方便旅行袋几个装备。
根据第一个标题下面的介绍可知,这个带过滤器的水瓶能除去像氯气等污染物,所以对健康有益。
根据第三个标题下面介绍可知,此装置是一个耳机,可听音乐。
文章是对方便旅行的装备的介绍,且都带有价格,所以应该是一个销售广告。
B短文
这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者参与Here After AI项目,通过AI技术与虚拟的父母进行交流的经历和感受。
细节理解题。根据第二段“At first,I thought it would be just a fun project to see what was technologically possible.”(起初,我认为这只是一个有趣的项目,看看技术上的可能性。)可知,作者加入这个项目的主要目的是测试新技术可能是什么样子。
25.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“My parents were asked questions by a technician for hours—about everything from their earliest memories to what they believe will happen after they die. Whether through illness-generated concerns or a willingness to humor their daughter, my parents put up zero resistance. The company then took their responses and started to create the voice assistants.”(一位技术人员问了我父母几个问题——从他们最早的记忆到他们认为死后会发生什么。无论是出于对疾病的担忧,还是出于对女儿的迁就,我的父母都没有任何抵触。然后,该公司收集了他们的反馈,开始开发语音助手。)可知,作者的父母为项目提供了数据。
26 猜词题。根据第四段 “I hadn't seen my actual, real parents for six months. They told me personal stories I'd never heard. They gave me life advice and told me things about their childhoods, as well as my own.”(我已经有六个月没见过我真正的父母了。他们向我讲述了我从未听过的个人故事。他们给我一些人生建议,告诉我他们和我的童年。)可知,作者的父母向他讲述了以前自己从没听过的个人故事,这真是令人着迷。
细节题。根据最后一段 personally, I have mixed feelings about my experiment. I'm glad to have my virtual parents. They’ve enabled me to learn new things about my parents, and it's comforting to think that those bots will be there even when my parentsaren't.On the other hand, I can't help but find it sad that it took a stranger interviewing my parents for me to properly know the complex people they are. But I feel lucky to have had the chance to grasp that and to still have the precious opportunity to spend more time with them and learn more about them, face to face, no technology involved.”(就我个人而言,我对我的实验有一种复杂的感觉。我很高兴有我的虚拟父母。它们让我对我的父母有了新的了解,想到即使我的父母不在,这些机器人也会在那里,这让我感到欣慰。另一方面,我不禁感到难过的是,直到一个陌生人采访了我的父母,我才真正了解到他们是一个复杂的人。但我感到很幸运,有机会抓住这一点,仍然有宝贵的机会花更多的时间和他们在一起,更多地了解他们,面对面,不涉及技术)可知,作者在最后一段意识到了与父母的真正联系是最重要的。
C短文。
本文介绍了秘鲁制定了一条法律,打击学术作弊。
根据第二段内容得知,撤销了两个科学家的资格。
根据第三段得知Edward Málaga Trillo is a member of Congress who is the driving force behind the bills, which lawmakers are expected to finalize early this year. “These individuals are operating academic cheating.”, 所以他对法案持支持态度。
根据第四段“2014 law aimed to stimulate research by rewarding researchers who boost their publishing output. For example, under a scoring system used by
universities, researchers can earn five points for authorship in a high-impact journal,
and two points when the journal is lower impact. A massing points can bring bonus payments and career promotion.” 可知。
根据文章最后一句得知,与其他国家的人共同完成著作剽窃的可能性最大。
D短文
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国人吃过多蛋白质会导致氮污染,并且这种污染会促进有害藻类的生长,最终对环境造成负面影响。作者呼吁改变生活习惯来控制氮污染,从而在长期上节省资金。
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The nation’s wastewater is loaded with the leftovers from protein digestion: nitrogen compounds (氮化合物) that can feed harmful algal blooms (藻华) and pollute the air and drinking water.(这个国家的废水中充满了蛋白质消化的残余物:氮化合物会滋生有害的藻类,污染空气和饮用水)”以及第二段中“Maya Almaraz, a biogeochemist at the University of California, Davis, and her team wanted to see how much of this nitrogen entered into the U.S. wastewater system because of a protein-heavy diet.(加州大学戴维斯分校的生物地球化学家玛雅·阿尔马拉兹和她的团队想知道,由于蛋白质含量高的饮食,有多少氮进入了美国的废水系统)”可知,加州大学戴维斯分校的生物地球化学家玛雅·阿尔玛拉兹和她的团队研究关注的是美国人饮食由于蛋白质含量高,美国的水道中含有蛋白质消化的残余物:氮化合物,该物质对生物、空气和饮用水等造成了影响,故阿尔玛拉兹研究关注的是美国人饮食造成的影响。
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Microorganisms (微生物) that feed on dead algae use up oxygen in the water, leading to “dead zones”, where many species simply cannot survive, in rivers, lakes and oceans.(以死藻为食的微生物耗尽了水中的氧气,导致河流、湖泊和海洋中的“死区”,许多物种根本无法在那里生存)”可知,以死藻为食的微生物耗尽了水中的氧气,许多物种没有了氧气,导致了“死区”的出现。
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Although it is possible to treat algal blooms, many of the current methods are not always effective at getting rid of all of the harmful growth. Some of these methods can even lead to additional pollution.(虽然有可能处理藻华,但目前的许多方法并不总是有效地消除所有有害的生长。其中一些方法甚至会导致额外的污染)”可知,当前对于藻华的一些处理方法容易造成额外污染即二次污染。
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“The nation’s wastewater is loaded with the leftovers from protein digestion: nitrogen compounds (氮化合物) that can feed harmful algal blooms (藻华) and pollute the air and drinking water.(这个国家的废水中充满了蛋白质消化的残余物:氮化合物会滋生有害的藻类,污染空气和饮用水)”以及文章介绍了美国人吃过多蛋白质会导致氮污染,并且这种污染会促进有害藻类的生长,最终对环境造成负面影响。作者呼吁改变生活习惯来控制氮污染,从而在长期上节省资金。B选项“为什么摄入过多的蛋白质会危害地球?”概括文章主要内容,符合题意。
七选五
本文是一篇说明文,介绍了进行有效反馈的三个原则。文章为“总分总”结构。
首段为总起段, 功能为引入话题。36 空前一句话表明了反馈的重要性, 下一句“建设性的反馈应遵循以下几个原则”引出话题,故36空应为过渡句,“然而,要提供有效的反馈很难。”故G项符合上下文逻辑关系,同时effective与constructive相呼应。
本题为段落概括句。根据段落内容可知, 人们经常在事情发生六个月后告诉别人一些让他们泪丧或高兴的事情。人们也很容易在事情进展不顺利时, 笼统地说“你所做的一切都是垃圾”。但这样做不好。应该想想给予者和接受者脑海中仍然新鲜的、详细的场合和行为。所以段落标题应为“反馈要及时、具体”。
38.空前一句话告诉我们“反馈应该针对对方的行为、对你的影响或给你的感觉”而“不要评论他们是什么类型的人, 或者他们相信或重视什么”,38 空就解释这样做的好处——“可以降低让接收者感到受到攻击的风险”。正确选项中的“this”对应前一句中所提的做法。
39. 根据本段的概括句“Focus on improvement rather than criticism”可知, 本段介绍第三个原则“注重改进而不是批评”。先介绍了这一原则, 后通过举例进一步解释具体做法——“它包括在积极或鼓励的评论之间提出建设性的批评。例如, 当与员工讨论一个项目时, 首先赞扬他们的辛勤工作, 然后添加需要改进的地方,最后以鼓励结束。”而这就像做三明治一样,故“给予反馈就像做三明治”是正确选项。
40. 本段为总结段. 40 空前一句说“向他人提供有效的反馈是一种双赢的行为。”后一句说“你们两个都能在个人发展中分一块儿。”“a win-win act”对应 C项中的“sharing a pizza”.“slice”呼应E项中的一块块的“pizza”。因此,向他人提供有效的反馈就像与朋友分享披萨一样,两人都能有收获。
