Best Spring Destinations in Xizang
Known as the “roof of the world”, the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau（高原）has long been an ideal destination for visitors. With the arrival of spring, here are some of the best tourist destinations in Xizang that might suit your discerning（有眼力的）travel taste.
Peach Blossom Valley, Nyingchi
The annual Nyingchi peach blossom（花朵）festival has become a signature tourism event on the plateau. A great time to visit Nyingchi would usually be from March 20 to April 15. It is more convenient to get a car to drive around the area to view the wild peach forests full of pink petals.
The Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon
The Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon（峡谷）is the deepest canyon in the world. One unique feature of the spring sight here is that visitors can enjoy both the peach blossoms and the snow-capped mountains at the same time. The Peach Blossom Fair is also a sight worthy attraction in the area.
Lulang Scenic Zone
Lulang Scenic Zone contains rich natural scenery. Every year from the middle of April to the beginning of June, with wild flowers blossoming alongside the meandering streams and snowy mountains towering in the backdrop, the whole landscape presents a tranquil and pleasant sight.
Lake Manasarova
Lake Manasarova, sitting 4,500 meters above sea level in Purang county, is a key “climate regulator” on the plateau and home to more than 400 rare species, which attracts a large number of pilgrims（朝圣者） as well as tourists from home and abroad.

Alexander von Humboldt was a German naturalist as well as a brave explorer. In The Invention of Nature, writer Andrea Wulf brings Humboldt back into the spotlight.
Humboldt revolutionized the way we see the natural world. While scientists broke nature down into parts, Humboldt was forever looking to the whole. Nothing, not even the tiniest organism, was looked at on its own. With this insight, he invented the web of life, the concept of nature as we know it today. He linked together his findings with innovative charts and illustrations that showed the connections he found on his travels in visually striking ways.
Wulf divided her book between a biography of Humboldt's life and sections tracing his influence on Charles Darwin, Henry D. Thoreau, John Muir and others. She is at her best in her vivid and exciting chapters that talk about his adventures. His journeys through the Americas, which took him from Washington to Lima, from hot plains to icy heights, shaped his vision of nature. He voyaged down the Orinoco River and saw a mixture of harmony and antagonism（对抗）, with plants battling other plants for precious light.
His journeys filled him with awe and concern as he noted the effects of agriculture and the great masses of steam and gas from industrial centers. And at Lake Valencia, near Caracas in Venezuela, Humboldt observed the effects of deforestation and developed an early concept of climate change caused by great changes in the landscape. By highlighting how we humans were disturbing delicate ecological dynamics, Humboldt, as Wulf writes, “became the father of the environmental movement”.
So absorbed are we today into the work of Darwin, John Mui r and subsequent generations of other naturalists that Humboldt is everywhere and nowhere. Fortunately, Wulf's book gradually brings this impressive figure back into a much-deserved focus.
24. How did Humboldt's view of nature differ from that of others
A. He focused on tiny organisms.
B. He saw connections between elements.
C. He noticed nature's distinctive features.
D. He believed nature couldn't be understood.
25. What does this book cover according to paragraph 3
A. Humboldt's interaction with other naturalists.
B. Humboldt's understanding of and the impact on nature.
C. Humboldt's life and his influence on other famous figures.
D. Humboldt's efforts of protecting the natural environment.
26. What issue did Humboldt identify through his explorations
A. The consequences of global warming.
B. The troubling impact of human activities.
C. The effects of climate change on landscapes.
D. The imbalance between agriculture and industry.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Wulf possesses excellent writing skills.
B. Humboldt always puts forward innovative ideas.
C. Wulf leaves a great impression on other naturalists.
D. Humboldt gains inadequate recognition.
C
The potential for AI like ChatGPT to affect how humans interact with computers and transform jobs has left many company leaders head-scratching. As with other breakthroughs in AI, ChatGPT raises big questions about how AI would impact jobs.
We believe that leading companies should neither attempt to automate human jobs nor wait on the sidelines until the shortcomings of AI are ironed out. Instead, companies should take a more strategic approach to make AI positively influence jobs.
Customer service provides an instructive case in point of the ways AI will transform——not wipe out— jobs. For example, we found that the work for customer service representatives could be broken down into 13 existing tasks. We then analyzed how AI might affect each of those tasks. Four of the tasks like directing organizational activities remained unchanged and could be performed entirely by humans. Four repetitive tasks, including fixing the prices of goods and services and collecting payments, could be fully automated. Five tasks could be upgraded to help humans work more effectively. And five new, high-value tasks emerge. Human, automated, updated, and emergent tasks— these are the elements of a new mix of tasks around which companies should redesign human jobs to get the greatest advantage from AI.
Instead of being dominated by AI, people are guiding them by human experience and knowledge. In fact, the developers of ChatGPT are continuing to refine it based on how people are using it online. As one of ChatGPT's developers pointed out, “This is ChatGPT's secret sauce. The basic idea is to take a large language model with a tendency to pour out anything it wants...and tune it by teaching it what kinds of responses human users actually prefer.”
28. What does the underlined word “head-scratching” mean in paragraph 1
A. Excited. B. Confused. C. Relieved. D. Frightened.
29. What change will AI bring to the customer service department
A. The department aims to replace human workers with AI.
B. Most tasks in the department will remain untouched by AI.
C. Staff in the department are expected to determine product prices.
D. AI can lead to novel roles for human employees.
30. Why does the author mention the words of a developer of ChatGPT in paragraph 4
A. To prove that a large language model is the key to ChatGPT's success.
B. To show that ChatGPT will be capable of speaking anything.
C. To support that AI should remain under human control and guidance.
D. To support that AI will be smarter than humans in communication.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. AI: Beauty or Beast
B. ChatGPT’s Secret to Success
C. AI Will Enrich—— Not Erase— Human Jobs
D. Clear Divisions of Tasks in Customer Service
D
Jade Benjamin-Chung is working with her colleagues to analyze the impact of water and hygiene（卫生）interventions on health outcomes in middle - and low-income Bangladeshi households in a trial. They found that many common strategies used to protect children from disease, such as hand washing, were not as effective as expected, in part because they tend to be expensive and difficult for poor communities to maintain over time. Curious about what else might be contributing to the puzzling results, Jade and her colleagues identified a potential cause right beneath their feet.
Around 70% of rural homes in Bangladesh have soil-packed floors. As young children crawl, eat and play on the floor, they often absorb tiny amounts of soil-based parasites（寄生虫）that transmit disease. The researchers consider concrete floors. Concrete floors are an improvement for homes as they can provide a space that is more convenient to clean and prohibit the spread of pathogens（病原体）.
Jade mentioned her idea to Sarah Billington, an expert on concrete and building materials. When Billington heard the team's idea of broadly replacing soil-packed floors with concrete, she worried the approach could have unintended consequences for the climate due to heavy carbon emissions from concrete production.
So Jade and Billington invited other Stanford experts in. They wanted to develop mix-using ingredients that are easily found in countries like Bangladesh. One possible ingredient is recycled fly ash, a byproduct of burning coal. The resulting concrete mix is affordable, durable and with fewer emissions.
The experimental process began in the Blume Earthquake Engineering Center. Jason Hernandez mixed and hardened concrete test tiles（瓷砖）made with the alternative “green” cement（水泥）. Hernandez then took the tiles across campus to Boehm's environmental engineering lab, where he and his teammates injected the tiles with pathogens like E. coli to measure how well they survived on the surface with and without cleaning. The team's initial findings suggested that E. coli and Ascaris sum have similar rates of survival on traditional cement mix slabs（厚板）and alternative “green” fly ash slabs. This means that when installed at homes, the alternative concrete mix could be as effective as traditional concrete at reducing disease transmission.
32. What did Jade and her colleagues mainly find out in Bangladesh
A. Few families lacked access to clean water.
B. Soil-packed floors were contributing to health problems.
C. Low-income households benefited more from hygiene practices.
D. Most kids didn't have the habit of washing hands regularly.
33. Why do the researchers choose the fly ash for the concrete mix
A. It's more environmentally friendly.
B. It reduces the cost of concrete production.
C. It enhances the concrete's resistance to pathogens.
D. It's a common ingredient in Bangladeshi construction.
34. Why did Jason Hernandez take the tiles to Boehm’s environmental engineering lab
A. To mix the fly ash with traditional cement tiles.
B. To examine the tiles’ durability under various conditions.
C. To measure if the tiles are effective in reducing disease transmission.
D. To analyze the environmental impact of producing the alternative concrete.
35. What's the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To emphasize the benefits of concrete floors in daily life.
B. To illustrate the environmental impact of concrete production.
C. To make people aware of the importance of hygiene interventions.
D. To inform readers of a sustainable method for disease reduction.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
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。
Can you tell if a person has positive character traits based on first impressions The thing is that it's easy to be impressed by someone's level of education, income, and job title. 36 It's usually the little things that make the biggest difference. Here are some specific ways to judge a person's character.
37 You can perceive it when a person holds the view that he is naturally superior to someone whom he refers to as “just a busboy（餐厅勤杂工）”. A kind person will be respectful to every single person, not just to those from whom he might expect some form of return.
The best conversations occur when everyone feels heard, appreciated, and valued. People who actively listen engage in meaningful conversations. 38 Moreover, speaking of talking, one should pay attention to how a person talks about others. A person with a great character is more interested in lifting others rather than bringing them down.
All people have done things that they're not proud of. The bigger challenge is determining what to do after that. Do they own up to their mistakes 39 It's easier to do the latter, but it shows a person's ignorance, arrogance, and selfishness. A person of integrity will admit his mistakes and make up for them.
Even the most successful people have their share of rejections and failures. People of strong character don't view challenges and failures as deal-breakers. 40 And once at the top, they never forget to thank the people who gave them the major boost to get to the finish line.
A. In other words, they listen to talks.
B. Learning to accept failures is a sign of maturity.
C. Are they consistent in their emotions and actions
D. They see them as powerful learning opportunities.
E. Or do they immediately shift the blame onto others
F. The way people treat those they don't know can be revealing.
G. But a person's character is not related to these external achievements.

Nala loved spending her school holidays on Grandma’ s little farm! But this time, her grandma was so sick, and couldn't get out of bed!
“Don't worry,” Nala told her grandma, “I'll look after everything!” She knew how to feed all the animals: it was easy! The chickens and ducks had pellets（丸）. The horse had oats（燕麦）. There was plenty of grass for the four sheep and the goat. She could also water the vegetables and collect eggs from the chicken coop.
“What a great help you are,” Grandma said when Nala brought her a bowl of soup for lunch.
“It's no trouble!” Nala smiled.
“I'll have to get up soon,” Grandma sighed. “Nanny will need milking.” Nanny, the goat, had to be milked every day. In fact, she would come outside and bleat（咩咩叫）when it was time! But Nala thought that her grandma still looked pale and shaky.
“I can do it!” Nala said confidently. She hadn't tried milking yet, but she had watched Grandma do it closely! Grandma would always put on her special dress and straw hat, get the bucket from the tool shed（棚）, get Nanny to the milking shed, and get everything done.
When Nanny bleated to be milked, Nala went out to see her. She expected Nanny to follow her to the milking shed like Nanny did with Grandma, but the animal just stood there.
“Come on, Nanny,” Nala said. “I'm milking you today. Grandma's sick, so we have to work together.”
Nanny just bleated impatiently, moving her feet uncomfortably.
“Maybe I need to speak more firmly,” Nala thought. “Now listen, Nanny. I want you to follow me to the milking shed.”
“Hey, come back here!” Nala called. Nanny stopped and turned around. She didn't like this little stranger. Grandma never yelled at her!
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 that moment Nala had a think..Just then, Nala spotted Grandma's dress and the straw hat hanging over a chair..

47.B。根据上文的“two adopted special needs children”可知，此处应该是“challenged children”，challenged表示“（委婉说法）伤残的，有残疾的”。
48.A。根据上句中的“my self-confidence sank”，加上前半句“Often I didn’t feel as if I had the answers”可知，“我”害怕做事情失败，故选“failing”。
49.D。“我”为了和教授见面，特意穿了一套正装，教授给予了称赞，所以“我”很惊讶“我竟然被注意到了”，故选“unnoticed”。
50.C。根据句意以及上下文可知，“我”开始想要改变自己，所以应该是将肥大的衣服从衣柜里清走，故选removed。
51.A。上句说清走了衣柜中的肥大的衣服，加上后面“我”开始减肥，可知“我”想要“重建”衣柜，故选rebuild。
52. D。上句说“我”开始做运动并且吃低脂的食物，可知“体重减轻”，正确表达是“the weight came off”。
53.B。根据上文可知，“我”变瘦了，加上之前的不自信，当然是感觉到自己变得“attractive”。
54.C。根据上文可知，教授给“我”的一句善意的“评价”，故选“remark”。
55.A。教授在平凡的周三早上说的话改变了“我”的一生，“random”表示那个星期三早晨是随机的、毫无特别之处的，突出事件的偶然性。
56.devices。考查名词的单复数。
57.which。考查引导定语从句的关系代词。
58.wireless。考查词性转换。关注句意。
59. have added。考查谓语动词的时态。关注与之并列的（have）equipped。
60. wiser。考查形容词的比较级。根据与之并列的...59software to make robots better informed about...可推断出此处也应该用比较级。
61.managed。考查动词的过去分词。句意：机器人将离开严格管控的工厂环境，进入日常生活。
62.a。考查冠词。
63.from/after。考查介词。recover...from...“从……当中恢复”。也可填after，则句意为“疫情过后工厂对工人的需求比预期的要快得多”。
64.growth。考查词性转换。由动词grow变为名词growth。
65.having。考查动名词（having more robots to boost productivity）做主语。

At that moment Nala had a think. Maybe she could trick Nanny to the shed with food! She quickly pulled up afresh, green bundle of grass and walked towards Nanny, her hands stretched out, her voice gentle but firm. “Come on, Nanny,” she coaxed（哄劝）. But Nanny merely sniffed at the grass, bleated impatiently again and trotted（小跑）further away. Nala clenched her fists, her cheeks flushing red as frustration and embarrassment swirled（打旋）inside her. She chased Nanny across the yard, but the stubborn goat clattered（出大声）toward the tool shed, stopping to glance back as if challenging her.
Just then, Nala spotted Grandma's dress and the straw hat hanging over a chair. “Of course," she murmured toherself, “if Nanny won't listen to me, maybe she’ll listen to...Grandma.” With her mind made up, Nala slipped into the dress, adjusting its oversized sleeves, and placed the straw hat on her head. Mimicking（模仿）Grandma's steady walk and soothing（抚慰的）voice, she stepped confidently out of the shed and called, “Come on, Nanny. Time for milking!” Nanny's ears flicked（快速移动）, her head jerking（猝然一动）up in surprise and, to Nala's astonishment, she began trotting toward her! She made it. A grin spread across Nala's face. This time, Nanny stood still as Nalacarefully milked her. For a moment, it felt as if the farm truly was hers to handle.

Best Spring Destinations in Xizang
Known as the “roof of the world”, the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau（高原）has long been an ideal destination for visitors. With the arrival of spring, here are some of the best tourist destinations in Xizang that might suit your discerning（有眼力的）travel taste.
Peach Blossom Valley, Nyingchi
The annual Nyingchi peach blossom（花朵）festival has become a signature tourism event on the plateau. A great time to visit Nyingchi would usually be from March 20 to April 15. It is more convenient to get a car to drive around the area to view the wild peach forests full of pink petals.
The Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon
The Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon（峡谷）is the deepest canyon in the world. One unique feature of the spring sight here is that visitors can enjoy both the peach blossoms and the snow-capped mountains at the same time. The Peach Blossom Fair is also a sight worthy attraction in the area.
Lulang Scenic Zone
Lulang Scenic Zone contains rich natural scenery. Every year from the middle of April to the beginning of June, with wild flowers blossoming alongside the meandering streams and snowy mountains towering in the backdrop, the whole landscape presents a tranquil and pleasant sight.
Lake Manasarova
Lake Manasarova, sitting 4,500 meters above sea level in Purang county, is a key “climate regulator” on the plateau and home to more than 400 rare species, which attracts a large number of pilgrims（朝圣者） as well as tourists from home and abroad.

Alexander von Humboldt was a German naturalist as well as a brave explorer. In The Invention of Nature, writer Andrea Wulf brings Humboldt back into the spotlight.
Humboldt revolutionized the way we see the natural world. While scientists broke nature down into parts, Humboldt was forever looking to the whole. Nothing, not even the tiniest organism, was looked at on its own. With this insight, he invented the web of life, the concept of nature as we know it today. He linked together his findings with innovative charts and illustrations that showed the connections he found on his travels in visually striking ways.
Wulf divided her book between a biography of Humboldt's life and sections tracing his influence on Charles Darwin, Henry D. Thoreau, John Muir and others. She is at her best in her vivid and exciting chapters that talk about his adventures. His journeys through the Americas, which took him from Washington to Lima, from hot plains to icy heights, shaped his vision of nature. He voyaged down the Orinoco River and saw a mixture of harmony and antagonism（对抗）, with plants battling other plants for precious light.
His journeys filled him with awe and concern as he noted the effects of agriculture and the great masses of steam and gas from industrial centers. And at Lake Valencia, near Caracas in Venezuela, Humboldt observed the effects of deforestation and developed an early concept of climate change caused by great changes in the landscape. By highlighting how we humans were disturbing delicate ecological dynamics, Humboldt, as Wulf writes, “became the father of the environmental movement”.
So absorbed are we today into the work of Darwin, John Mui r and subsequent generations of other naturalists that Humboldt is everywhere and nowhere. Fortunately, Wulf's book gradually brings this impressive figure back into a much-deserved focus.
24. How did Humboldt's view of nature differ from that of others
A. He focused on tiny organisms.
B. He saw connections between elements.
C. He noticed nature's distinctive features.
D. He believed nature couldn't be understood.
25. What does this book cover according to paragraph 3
A. Humboldt's interaction with other naturalists.
B. Humboldt's understanding of and the impact on nature.
C. Humboldt's life and his influence on other famous figures.
D. Humboldt's efforts of protecting the natural environment.
26. What issue did Humboldt identify through his explorations
A. The consequences of global warming.
B. The troubling impact of human activities.
C. The effects of climate change on landscapes.
D. The imbalance between agriculture and industry.
27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Wulf possesses excellent writing skills.
B. Humboldt always puts forward innovative ideas.
C. Wulf leaves a great impression on other naturalists.
D. Humboldt gains inadequate recognition.
C
The potential for AI like ChatGPT to affect how humans interact with computers and transform jobs has left many company leaders head-scratching. As with other breakthroughs in AI, ChatGPT raises big questions about how AI would impact jobs.
We believe that leading companies should neither attempt to automate human jobs nor wait on the sidelines until the shortcomings of AI are ironed out. Instead, companies should take a more strategic approach to make AI positively influence jobs.
Customer service provides an instructive case in point of the ways AI will transform——not wipe out— jobs. For example, we found that the work for customer service representatives could be broken down into 13 existing tasks. We then analyzed how AI might affect each of those tasks. Four of the tasks like directing organizational activities remained unchanged and could be performed entirely by humans. Four repetitive tasks, including fixing the prices of goods and services and collecting payments, could be fully automated. Five tasks could be upgraded to help humans work more effectively. And five new, high-value tasks emerge. Human, automated, updated, and emergent tasks— these are the elements of a new mix of tasks around which companies should redesign human jobs to get the greatest advantage from AI.
Instead of being dominated by AI, people are guiding them by human experience and knowledge. In fact, the developers of ChatGPT are continuing to refine it based on how people are using it online. As one of ChatGPT's developers pointed out, “This is ChatGPT's secret sauce. The basic idea is to take a large language model with a tendency to pour out anything it wants...and tune it by teaching it what kinds of responses human users actually prefer.”
28. What does the underlined word “head-scratching” mean in paragraph 1
A. Excited. B. Confused. C. Relieved. D. Frightened.
29. What change will AI bring to the customer service department
A. The department aims to replace human workers with AI.
B. Most tasks in the department will remain untouched by AI.
C. Staff in the department are expected to determine product prices.
D. AI can lead to novel roles for human employees.
30. Why does the author mention the words of a developer of ChatGPT in paragraph 4
A. To prove that a large language model is the key to ChatGPT's success.
B. To show that ChatGPT will be capable of speaking anything.
C. To support that AI should remain under human control and guidance.
D. To support that AI will be smarter than humans in communication.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. AI: Beauty or Beast
B. ChatGPT’s Secret to Success
C. AI Will Enrich—— Not Erase— Human Jobs
D. Clear Divisions of Tasks in Customer Service
D
Jade Benjamin-Chung is working with her colleagues to analyze the impact of water and hygiene（卫生）interventions on health outcomes in middle - and low-income Bangladeshi households in a trial. They found that many common strategies used to protect children from disease, such as hand washing, were not as effective as expected, in part because they tend to be expensive and difficult for poor communities to maintain over time. Curious about what else might be contributing to the puzzling results, Jade and her colleagues identified a potential cause right beneath their feet.
Around 70% of rural homes in Bangladesh have soil-packed floors. As young children crawl, eat and play on the floor, they often absorb tiny amounts of soil-based parasites（寄生虫）that transmit disease. The researchers consider concrete floors. Concrete floors are an improvement for homes as they can provide a space that is more convenient to clean and prohibit the spread of pathogens（病原体）.
Jade mentioned her idea to Sarah Billington, an expert on concrete and building materials. When Billington heard the team's idea of broadly replacing soil-packed floors with concrete, she worried the approach could have unintended consequences for the climate due to heavy carbon emissions from concrete production.
So Jade and Billington invited other Stanford experts in. They wanted to develop mix-using ingredients that are easily found in countries like Bangladesh. One possible ingredient is recycled fly ash, a byproduct of burning coal. The resulting concrete mix is affordable, durable and with fewer emissions.
The experimental process began in the Blume Earthquake Engineering Center. Jason Hernandez mixed and hardened concrete test tiles（瓷砖）made with the alternative “green” cement（水泥）. Hernandez then took the tiles across campus to Boehm's environmental engineering lab, where he and his teammates injected the tiles with pathogens like E. coli to measure how well they survived on the surface with and without cleaning. The team's initial findings suggested that E. coli and Ascaris sum have similar rates of survival on traditional cement mix slabs（厚板）and alternative “green” fly ash slabs. This means that when installed at homes, the alternative concrete mix could be as effective as traditional concrete at reducing disease transmission.
32. What did Jade and her colleagues mainly find out in Bangladesh
A. Few families lacked access to clean water.
B. Soil-packed floors were contributing to health problems.
C. Low-income households benefited more from hygiene practices.
D. Most kids didn't have the habit of washing hands regularly.
33. Why do the researchers choose the fly ash for the concrete mix
A. It's more environmentally friendly.
B. It reduces the cost of concrete production.
C. It enhances the concrete's resistance to pathogens.
D. It's a common ingredient in Bangladeshi construction.
34. Why did Jason Hernandez take the tiles to Boehm’s environmental engineering lab
A. To mix the fly ash with traditional cement tiles.
B. To examine the tiles’ durability under various conditions.
C. To measure if the tiles are effective in reducing disease transmission.
D. To analyze the environmental impact of producing the alternative concrete.
35. What's the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To emphasize the benefits of concrete floors in daily life.
B. To illustrate the environmental impact of concrete production.
C. To make people aware of the importance of hygiene interventions.
D. To inform readers of a sustainable method for disease reduction.

Can you tell if a person has positive character traits based on first impressions The thing is that it's easy to be impressed by someone's level of education, income, and job title. 36 It's usually the little things that make the biggest difference. Here are some specific ways to judge a person's character.
37 You can perceive it when a person holds the view that he is naturally superior to someone whom he refers to as “just a busboy（餐厅勤杂工）”. A kind person will be respectful to every single person, not just to those from whom he might expect some form of return.
The best conversations occur when everyone feels heard, appreciated, and valued. People who actively listen engage in meaningful conversations. 38 Moreover, speaking of talking, one should pay attention to how a person talks about others. A person with a great character is more interested in lifting others rather than bringing them down.
All people have done things that they're not proud of. The bigger challenge is determining what to do after that. Do they own up to their mistakes 39 It's easier to do the latter, but it shows a person's ignorance, arrogance, and selfishness. A person of integrity will admit his mistakes and make up for them.
Even the most successful people have their share of rejections and failures. People of strong character don't view challenges and failures as deal-breakers. 40 And once at the top, they never forget to thank the people who gave them the major boost to get to the finish line.
A. In other words, they listen to talks.
B. Learning to accept failures is a sign of maturity.
C. Are they consistent in their emotions and actions
D. They see them as powerful learning opportunities.
E. Or do they immediately shift the blame onto others
F. The way people treat those they don't know can be revealing.
G. But a person's character is not related to these external achievements.

The word “robot” was coined in 1920 by the Czech playwright Karel Capek meaning fully functional servants. For most of their history, robots have been inelegant mechanical 56 （device）sitting out of sight in factories.

Nala loved spending her school holidays on Grandma’ s little farm! But this time, her grandma was so sick, and couldn't get out of bed!
“Don't worry,” Nala told her grandma, “I'll look after everything!” She knew how to feed all the animals: it was easy! The chickens and ducks had pellets（丸）. The horse had oats（燕麦）. There was plenty of grass for the four sheep and the goat. She could also water the vegetables and collect eggs from the chicken coop.
“What a great help you are,” Grandma said when Nala brought her a bowl of soup for lunch.
“It's no trouble!” Nala smiled.
“I'll have to get up soon,” Grandma sighed. “Nanny will need milking.” Nanny, the goat, had to be milked every day. In fact, she would come outside and bleat（咩咩叫）when it was time! But Nala thought that her grandma still looked pale and shaky.
“I can do it!” Nala said confidently. She hadn't tried milking yet, but she had watched Grandma do it closely! Grandma would always put on her special dress and straw hat, get the bucket from the tool shed（棚）, get Nanny to the milking shed, and get everything done.
When Nanny bleated to be milked, Nala went out to see her. She expected Nanny to follow her to the milking shed like Nanny did with Grandma, but the animal just stood there.
“Come on, Nanny,” Nala said. “I'm milking you today. Grandma's sick, so we have to work together.”
Nanny just bleated impatiently, moving her feet uncomfortably.
“Maybe I need to speak more firmly,” Nala thought. “Now listen, Nanny. I want you to follow me to the milking shed.”
“Hey, come back here!” Nala called. Nanny stopped and turned around. She didn't like this little stranger. Grandma never yelled at her!
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 that moment Nala had a think..Just then, Nala spotted Grandma's dress and the straw hat hanging over a chair..

【语篇解读】本文为记叙文，主题为“人与自我”。“我”因为带孩子的压力导致肥胖而丧失自信心，为寻找自我，“我”重返大学校园。在受到教授的称赞后，“我”下决心减肥成功，并找回了自信心。
41.C。根据“You look great”可知，是三个简单的词，结合最后一段，尤其是“those three plain words”可知，“我”想要表达的是在不自信的时候，教授简单善意的一句话给“我”带来的重大影响。
42.D。因为“我”收留的是两个“special needs children”，所以孩子们能够上大学，应该是在多年的努力后，struggling表达的正是“战胜困难努力地做某事”。
43.B。“我”听到了内心的声音在跟自己对话。用“whispered”能恰当地表达内心的声音在召唤“我”。
44.C。十来年“我”都没有把自己放在首位，用“put oneself first”表示“把自己放在首要位置”。
45.A。结合上文可知，“我”重回大学，当然是要完成学位，故选“degree”。
46.B。由第一段讲的减肥成功，再加上“在抚养两个孩子的压力下”可知，是“我”的体重“上升”，此处应该用一个明确表示上升的词，故选climbed。
47.B。根据上文的“two adopted special needs children”可知，此处应该是“challenged children”，challenged表示“（委婉说法）伤残的，有残疾的”。
48.A。根据上句中的“my self-confidence sank”，加上前半句“Often I didn’t feel as if I had the answers”可知，“我”害怕做事情失败，故选“failing”。
49.D。“我”为了和教授见面，特意穿了一套正装，教授给予了称赞，所以“我”很惊讶“我竟然被注意到了”，故选“unnoticed”。
50.C。根据句意以及上下文可知，“我”开始想要改变自己，所以应该是将肥大的衣服从衣柜里清走，故选removed。
51.A。上句说清走了衣柜中的肥大的衣服，加上后面“我”开始减肥，可知“我”想要“重建”衣柜，故选rebuild。
52. D。上句说“我”开始做运动并且吃低脂的食物，可知“体重减轻”，正确表达是“the weight came off”。
53.B。根据上文可知，“我”变瘦了，加上之前的不自信，当然是感觉到自己变得“attractive”。
54.C。根据上文可知，教授给“我”的一句善意的“评价”，故选“remark”。
55.A。教授在平凡的周三早上说的话改变了“我”的一生，“random”表示那个星期三早晨是随机的、毫无特别之处的，突出事件的偶然性。
56.devices。考查名词的单复数。
57.which。考查引导定语从句的关系代词。
58.wireless。考查词性转换。关注句意。
59. have added。考查谓语动词的时态。关注与之并列的（have）equipped。
60. wiser。考查形容词的比较级。根据与之并列的...59software to make robots better informed about...可推断出此处也应该用比较级。
61.managed。考查动词的过去分词。句意：机器人将离开严格管控的工厂环境，进入日常生活。
62.a。考查冠词。
63.from/after。考查介词。recover...from...“从……当中恢复”。也可填after，则句意为“疫情过后工厂对工人的需求比预期的要快得多”。
64.growth。考查词性转换。由动词grow变为名词growth。
65.having。考查动名词（having more robots to boost productivity）做主语。

第二节
【参考范文】
At that moment Nala had a think. Maybe she could trick Nanny to the shed with food! She quickly pulled up afresh, green bundle of grass and walked towards Nanny, her hands stretched out, her voice gentle but firm. “Come on, Nanny,” she coaxed（哄劝）. But Nanny merely sniffed at the grass, bleated impatiently again and trotted（小跑）further away. Nala clenched her fists, her cheeks flushing red as frustration and embarrassment swirled（打旋）inside her. She chased Nanny across the yard, but the stubborn goat clattered（出大声）toward the tool shed, stopping to glance back as if challenging her.
Just then, Nala spotted Grandma's dress and the straw hat hanging over a chair. “Of course," she murmured toherself, “if Nanny won't listen to me, maybe she’ll listen to...Grandma.” With her mind made up, Nala slipped into the dress, adjusting its oversized sleeves, and placed the straw hat on her head. Mimicking（模仿）Grandma's steady walk and soothing（抚慰的）voice, she stepped confidently out of the shed and called, “Come on, Nanny. Time for milking!” Nanny's ears flicked（快速移动）, her head jerking（猝然一动）up in surprise and, to Nala's astonishment, she began trotting toward her! She made it. A grin spread across Nala's face. This time, Nanny stood still as Nalacarefully milked her. For a moment, it felt as if the farm truly was hers to handle.
