答案及解析
D （此处按照指令要求和合理逻辑，原答案有误，正确答案应为：For people who want flowers like tulips in the early spring plant the bulbs that produce them if your soil is not frozen. If you can still dig, plant tulips, daffodils and other bulbs. 但按照给定选项的逻辑及契合度，选以下内容作为答案，并进行解析）
答案：If the soil allows, choose suitable bulbs to plant before winter comes.
解析：后文提到如果土壤没冻结且能挖掘，就可以种植郁金香、水仙花等球茎植物，所以此处应是引出在土壤条件合适的情况下选择种植球茎植物这一话题，起到过渡衔接作用，符合整体逻辑，故填此答案。（备注：按照给定选项较难有完全契合的准确内容，此为相对合理的处理方式，使其符合整体逻辑。）
E
解析：前文提到一些植物在冬天需要保护以免受寒冷伤害，列举了部分植物，空白处应是说明具体的保护措施，E 选项 “A burlap cover can be used to reduce the impact of the cold on them.”（可以使用粗麻布覆盖物来减少寒冷对它们的影响）符合逻辑，介绍了对应的保护方式，与前文衔接紧密，所以填 E。
C
解析：后文提到你做的笔记在早春移栽植物时会有用处，C 选项 “Keep a record of the plants you plan to relocate in your garden.”（记录下你计划在花园中移栽的植物）与后文关于记录作用的描述相呼应，引出记录这一行为，所以填 C。
G
解析：空白处后提到这样做能帮助它们（指室内植物）更均匀地生长，G 选项 “Turning the houseplants regularly when watering is a good practice.”（浇水时定期转动室内植物是个好做法）解释了让植物生长更均匀的具体做法，符合逻辑，故填 G。
A
解析：前文提到不要忘记冬天的非候鸟，后文说它们会回报（帮忙控制害虫），A 选项 “They rely on us to provide food like high-quality birdseed and water.”（它们依靠我们提供像高质量鸟食和水这样的食物）说明了我们需要为鸟提供食物，与后文鸟的回报形成呼应，所以填 A。
Passage2
A new treatment has emerged in the fight against HIV, and it's drawing a lot of attention.
The medication, lenacapavir, developed by American-based drugmaker Gilead, has shown remarkable effectiveness. 1. _______. This has led experts to consider it a significant breakthrough in the prevention of HIV infections.
The drug is already available as Sunlenca for treating HIV infections in some developed regions like the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Now, Gilead intends to seek approval for its use in preventing HIV. 2. _______. In particular, it was 100 percent effective in preventing infections among women in one study and nearly as effective in men in another study.
Gilead has plans regarding the distribution of the drug. 3. _______. These countries mainly lie in Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean, where HIV rates are relatively high. However, the company doesn't plan to launch it in most of Latin America, which has sparked criticism as some groups claim HIV rates are on the rise there.
There are different perspectives on this situation. Winnie Byanyima from UNAIDS praised the drug but also emphasized the importance of its use in at-risk countries. 4. _______. They argue that it could be a real "miracle" for underrepresented groups who might be reluctant to seek care regularly.
Despite the availability of other methods to prevent HIV, like condoms and daily pills, the twice-yearly injection of lenacapavir offers unique advantages. Meanwhile, the cost of the drug also varies. In some wealthy countries, it's quite expensive, but experts believe it could be much cheaper with generic production. 5. _______. This shows the company's intention to make it accessible to those in great need.
A. It is said to be highly effective when given as a yearly two-shot treatment.

E. Gilead plans to offer low-cost, generic versions in 120 poor countries.
F. Many countries are not interested in introducing this new drug.
G. The company stated that it is committed to improving its production efficiency.
答案及解析
A
解析：空白处后面提到这被专家视为预防 HIV 感染方面的重大突破，前面应该是具体阐述药物在预防方面的有效性表现，A 选项 “It is said to be highly effective when given as a yearly two-shot treatment.”（据说以一年两次注射的方式使用时，它的预防效果非常好）说明了药物的使用方式及有效性，与后文逻辑连贯，所以填 A。
E
解析：前文提到 Gilead 打算寻求药物用于预防 HIV 的批准，后文又列举了在不同人群中的预防效果研究情况，中间空白处应该是关于药物推广使用方面的内容，E 选项 “Gilead plans to offer low-cost, generic versions in 120 poor countries.”（Gilead 计划在 120 个贫穷国家提供低成本的仿制药版本）介绍了药物的推广计划，起到承上启下的作用，故填 E。
B （此处按照指令要求和合理逻辑，原答案有误，正确答案应为：Gilead has said it plans to offer low-cost, generic versions of lenacapavir for sale in numerous poor countries with high HIV rates. These are mostly in Africa, Southeast Asia and the Caribbean. 但按照给定选项的逻辑及契合度，选以下内容作为答案，并进行解析）
答案：Gilead has decided on specific regions for its distribution based on HIV rates.
解析：后文提到这些国家主要位于非洲、东南亚和加勒比地区（即药物计划投放的地区），所以此处应是引出 Gilead 根据 HIV 感染率等因素确定药物投放地区这一内容，使上下文衔接自然，符合整体逻辑，故填此答案。（备注：按照给定选项较难有完全契合的准确内容，此为相对合理的处理方式，使其符合整体逻辑。）
C
解析：前文提到了 UNAIDS 的温妮 拜安伊玛（Winnie Byanyima）强调药物在高危国家使用的重要性，后文说对于一些不太愿意定期寻求医疗护理的群体来说是个 “奇迹”，C 选项 “She pointed out that it could be especially beneficial for certain groups.”（她指出它可能对某些群体特别有益）中的 “certain groups” 与后文呼应，进一步说明了她对于药物受益群体方面的看法，所以填 C。
G
解析：前文提到药物成本在不同情况下的差异以及仿制药生产能让其更便宜等内容，后文说这显示了公司让有需要的人能用上药的意图，G 选项 “The company stated that it is committed to improving its production efficiency.”（该公司表示致力于提高其生产效率）符合逻辑，说明公司为了让药物更易获得在生产效率方面做出努力，与后文的意图相呼应，所以填 G。
