第二部分:阅读理解 (共两节,满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分37.5分)

A
These new acquisitions include works by some of the youngest living artists ever collected by the British Museum, presented alongside works by famous artists from Mary Delany and Edouard Manet, to Barbara Hepworth, Andy Warhol and Yinka Shonibare. The show will be touring venues around the UK from the October 2023 to July2024.
In this surprising and thought-provoking selection, emerging artists take the medium of drawing in new directions and use innovative approaches. A wide range of techniques and practices are represented, including drawings using make-up on face wipes by Sin Wai Kin and a drawing made with chalk collected from the White Cliffs of Dover by Josephine Baker.
Artists show how drawing, often considered a quiet or private medium, can be used to challenge social norms(规范), explore identity and protest injustice. Catherine Anyango Grünewald has described the time and labour invested in her monumental drawings as a “direct admiration” for their subjects, often the victims of institutional crimes. The painstaking de tail of Irish artist Miriam de Búrca's drawings of earth forces us to confront an uncomfortable history.
This tour has evolved from an exhibition at the British Museum, and each gallery will offer their unique take on the works.
Supported by the Dorset Foundation in memory of Harry M Weinrebe.
21. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. The tour has a duration of one year and a half.
B. Visitors can enjoy the tour only in the British Museum.

C. They collect surprising drawings. D. They prefer a new but risky direction.
23. Who makes efforts to show respect to the subjects of works
A. Mary Delany. B. Harry M Weinrebe.
C. Barbara Hepworth. D. Catherine Anyango Grünewald.
B
Different people have different ambitions in life such as doctors. For as long as I can remember I always liked teaching people something. From my childhood, I taught whatever I learned in school. It started with helping some trying to tie their shoelaces or making my younger siblings remember alphabets through a sing-song rhythm. This profession will enable me to make my humble contribution to the building of my nation by instilling the spirit of nationalism and patriotism in my students. The sense of accomplishment I used to feel when the other person finally learned whatever it was that I had been teaching them was indescribable.
The main reason I always wanted to teach was that firstly I thought teaching comes naturally to me and secondly, I always had the utmost respect for my teacher, who knew my strengths and weakness more than I did. According to Plato, education is the turning of the inner eye towards the light. By adopting the profession of teaching, I can hope to perform this stupendous task.
I aspire to make a difference in others’ lives through education. I’m studying to be an elementary school teacher because I believe that children can achieve so much more if they learn early of their potential. My parents taught me as a child that schooling was vital to success in life. Truly, that lesson has been the most important in my path to college. I don't think I would have made it this far had I not taken my education seriously.
What started from teaching my siblings in their homework ended in me volunteering to teach underprivileged children and making me realize that in this world there could be never enough educators and there are people in this world who are always in need of learning. I want to teach others about the importance of education so they too can prosper. Everything I'm learning at university is important for my future career and, if I don't study it, I'm failing my future students. In view of the foregoing reasons, I am convinced that my preference to become a teacher is a step in the right direction. I will, therefore, spare no effort to achieve this ambition of my life.
24. The author mentioned the childhood experience to .
A. share the sense of accomplishment B. advocate nationalism and patriotism
C. explain the inborn passion for teaching D. introduce several ways to help others
25. What does the word “stupendous” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Impossible. B. Impressive. C. Indescribable. D. Imaginary.
26. What inspires the author to become an elementary school teacher
A. The significance of education. B. The power of students’ potential.
C. The life of the university. D. The successful career of parents.
27. What has the author learned from the voluntary work
A. Being a teacher is effortless.
B. Poor children fail to be educators.
C. Studying in university is not enough.
D. Education should be accessible to all.

Researchers from the GIGA—Center of Research Cyclotron at the University of Liège have discovered that the sleeping body reacts to the external world while sleeping, which explains how some sensory input might influence sleep quality.
Researchers from ULi ège worked with the University of Fribourg in Switzerland to study if the body genuinely disconnects from the outside world while sleeping. They focused on how the heartbeat changes when we hear different words while sleeping. They discovered that calming words reduced cardiac(心脏的) activity as a reflection of deeper sleep, in contrast to neutral phrases, which did not have the same effect. This result, reported in the Journal of Sleep Research, throws fresh light on brain-heart interactions during sleep.
A previous study analyzing brain data showed that relaxing words increased deep sleep duration and sleep quality, showing that we can positively influence sleep using meaningful words. By that time, the authors reasoned that the brain might still process sensory input in a way that made our bodies feel more relaxed after hearing soothing phrases while sleeping.
In this new study, the authors were able to measure cardiac activity to test this idea and discovered that the heart slows down only after the display of calming phrases. Markers of cardiac and brain activity were then compared to understand how much they contributed to the modulation(演变) of sleep by auditory information. Cardiac activity has been indeed proposed to contribute to the way we perceive the world directly, but such evidence has so far been obtained in wakefulness. With these results, the ULi ège researchers showed that it was also true in sleep, offering a new perspective on the essential role of bodily reactions beyond brain data for our understanding of sleep.
“Most of sleep research focuses on the brain and rarely investigates bodily activity,” says Dr. Schmidt. This study takes a more complete approach to the modulation of sleep functions by sensory information. By investigating cardiac reactions to noises, we may be able to research in the future the involvement of the body in the way sounds influence emotional processing of memories while sleeping.
28. What can we learn about the sleeping body from the first two paragraphs
A. It disconnects from the outside world. B. It reacts positively to calming words.
C. It makes no response to neutral words. D. It suffers the changes of the heartbeat.
29. What did the new study focus on
A. Unpleasant noise. B. The modulation of sleep.
C. Cardiac activity. D. The function of the brain.
30. Why were the markers compared
A. To understand the world directly.
B. To obtain information in wakefulness.
C. To study the impact of sensory input on sleep.
D. To test the accuracy of auditory information.
31. What is the author's attitude toward the new study
A. Unclear. B. Indifferent. C. Doubtful. D. Approving.
D
Ten years ago, Britain's first stretch of all-lane running (ALR)“smart” motorway was introduced, with more to follow. As a way to ease congestion(堵塞) without spending money on widening roads, ALR motorways function without a hard shoulder for drivers in difficulty. As they were rolled out, motorists were assured that the emergency lane would not be missed, as new technologies would be able to respond to breakdowns, and control traffic flow.
The public was understandably doubtful about how smart this idea was, and it turned out the public was right. Smart motorways without a hard shoulder have been found to be three times more dangerous than ones where drivers have that option. Behind the data lie terrible incidents, in which stationary(不动的) vehicles have been ploughed into from behind with serious consequences. Rightly, Rishi Sunak last year stopped plans for more ALR motorways, citing a lack of public confidence. But he should go further. The RAC this week called for a hard shoulder to be restored on all smart motorways. That advice should be listened to in Whitehall and acted upon. A 2021 House of Commons transport committee report made shockingly clear that before rolling the “no emergency lane” policy out, ministers driven by the desire to save money failed to do due diligence on the safety risks attached.
Since then, plans to retrofit(翻新) refuge areas along motorway routes have proceeded at a snail's pace. Of the 150 emergency areas due to be in place by next year, only a tiny proportion have been delivered. Even when all are up and running, the risk of a catastrophic breakdown in onrushing traffic will remain.
At a minimum, the government should move to a system of “dynamic” motorways, where emergency lanes are only opened to traffic at particularly busy periods. But the preferable solution would be to restore a permanent hard shoulder. This could be done while keeping the benefits of investment in technical innovations that allow traffic to be better monitored and flexibly regulated. Mr Sunak did the right thing in bringing a foolish experiment to an end. The next task is to correct the damage already done.
32. Why were ALR motorways introduced
A. To reduce serious traffic accidents. B. To relieve traffic jam at low costs.
C. To save money on road maintenance. D. To improve motorists' driving skills.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 2
A. Roads with a hard shoulder posed little threat.
B. Smart motorways failed to win public favor.
C. Ministers were driven by the greed for money.
D. Rishi Sunak was forced to stop smart motorways.
34. What does the author suggest the government do
A. Build more emergency areas. B. Invest in technical advances.
C. Calculate the potential damage. D. Keep a hard shoulder in place.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Smart Motorways Are Not Clever Without a Hard Shoulder
B. Smart Motorways Witnessed Catastrophic Breakdowns
C. Smart Motorways Benefit From Technological Innovation
D. Smart Motorways Raised the Doubts of the General Public

A quick browse of the FitTok tag reveals our madness with maximum fitness—couples lifting one another overhead, mums sprinting from room to room with pushchairs, which can make the average gymgoer feel hopeless. 36 Try these achievable goals.
Find a diet that works
Trendy diets are often extreme, but that's not going to help you sustain a healthy lifestyle. “As a general standard your diet should consist of 20-30 per cent fat, 40-50 per cent carbs and25-30 per cent protein,” says Farren Morgan, a military fitness coach. 37
Run a 5k
You don't have to run the length of Africa. Training for your local ParkRun—a weekly group 5k—is a great place to start. Fran Bungay says,“ 38 Alternating a minute running with a minute walking is fine to begin with. Once you can run for 20 minutes, try to push for30.”
Remove back pain
“Spending all day at a desk can lead to tight hips, which may then lead to pain in the lower back and shoulders,” Clift says.“ 39 ”You can also try the knee twist. Lie on your back and bring your knees up to your chest, before slowly lowering them to the left and to the right while keeping your back flat on the floor.
Make the gym a habit
Studies have found that activity trackers can help people develop healthy routines over the long term, and that it always takes about 66 days to form a lasting habit. 40
A. Aim for three 20-minute training a week.
B. It doesn't have to be all or nothing, however.
C. Squats help to strengthen your back and core, and will burn calories.
D. Use the True Coach app to track your goals and receive personalized feedback.
E. Get this right, and drink certain amount of water a day, and your body should adapt quickly.
F. Yoga and Pilates can help, as well as taking regular breaks or investing in a standing desk.
G. Use the Class Pass app to book fitness classes without having to commit to a full membership.

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Jennifer worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. The produce from their garden was sold at the farmer's market. This is how they made their living. Jennifer often pretended the plants she tended were beautiful tulips, like Mrs. Talia’s prize flowers. “Foolish girl!” her mother scolded. “Flowers can't be eaten! Tend to the vegetables. That's our living.”
Jennifer knew her mother was right. The only person in the village who made money selling flowers was Mrs. Talia. She grew tulips and sold them to local flower shops. Every year she won first prize at the Tulip Festival. Other contestants whispered that Mrs. Talia used magic to grow her tulips. How else could she win first prize twenty years in a row
Jennifer envied Mrs. Talia. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Talia, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But tulips were expensive to start, and Jennifer could only dream about growing them.
One day, Jennifer visited Mrs. Talia to see her flowers. Mrs. Talia was inspecting her tulips when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up thrilled Jennifer. Mrs. Talia shattered her daydream. “Spying on me again!”Mrs. Talia frowned. Jennifer took a deep breath and explained she came only to see her flowers, hoping to grow such beautiful tulips and win a prize at the festival like her.
“You! Win a prize growing flowers ”Mrs. Talia chuckled and told Jennifer the secret to growing prize tulips had been passed down to her from past generations of her family. Mrs. Talia patted her shoulder and said sticking to vegetables was a better choice for her. Mrs. Talia returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Jennifer’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed. “What's that ” Jennifer asked. Mrs. Talia said it was only a shabby plant and then threw it over the fence into the field beside the garden.
Jennifer smiled and had an idea. She bowed farewell to Mrs. Talia and went out of the garden gate. Jennifer looked down at the discarded plant on the village path and glanced back. Mrs. Talia was busy minding her prize tulips. Jennifer quickly bent over and picked up the plant before rushing home.
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。
Jennifer wondered what she should do with her plant.

参考范文:
Jennifer wondered what she should do with her plant. It suddenly occurred to her there was a quiet spot behind the cottage, a perfect place to grow for her little plant. Delighted at the thought of owning her own secret garden, she transplanted the tired flower carefully, exactly as Mrs. Talia did. Jennifer shared her secret with no one. She weeded and watered the recovering plant, whispering her dream of flower-growing glory to the little plant. Time spent with the little plant made Jennifer’s long days tending vegetables bearable. Finally, her tireless efforts paid off. Each time Jennifer visited her little plant, it looked greener and taller, giving her an increasing hope that she might win a prize at the festival.
Jennifer got up on festival morning. Her heart pounding with anticipation, she went to greet her vibrant, exotic flower. With a mix of pride and nervousness, she carried it to the festival, where it stood out among the rows of tulips. The villagers were captivated by its beauty, and the judges were astounded. As the prizes were announced, Jennifer’s flower won the hearts of all .Mrs. Talia’s mouth dropped open at the result and came to ask what her secret of planting flowers was. She mentioned it was being able to do something she enjoyed and trying her best. It turned out her mother was also at the festival. Shocked and proud, her mother said in a whisper “Proud of you and your dream.” A surge of warmth ran through her, offering her the energy to carry on.

The United States Postal Service, or USPS, has a long history in America. Benjamin Franklin was appointed as the first head of the postal service, in 1775. However, the Postal Service says its income has not kept up with growing costs nowadays. The service says most of its recent losses result from making payments to its health care program for retired people. About a billion dollars of the loss is payments for injured workers. The news from April to June was not all bad. Improvements in the economy added a 9% increase in income from shipping and delivery. Because it is less costly to send letters and packages in the mail than to use private companies. To improve its financial health, the agency has proposed cutting service on Saturdays. It also wants Congress to cancel a requirement that the postal service makes advance payments to the health care program for retired workers. On August 1st, USPS failed to make a required payment of 5.5 billion dollars for health care benefits for future retirees. It is the first time the postal service has ever failed to make such a payment. And, without major changes, it will continue to lose billions of dollars a year.
