Monica Bertagnolli is an oncologist (肿瘤学家) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School. Growing up in Wyoming, she was well aware of the lack of health care resources in rural areas. Access to in-depth care for cancer patients is hard to get. She’s worked throughout her career to change that.
In Wyoming, there’s a great distance to travel between where people live and where they can find a cancer specialist. “If you need treatments and they have to be administered every day, and if it’s 120 miles from where you live, that ends up being a huge barrier to receiving the kind of care you need.”
And now Monica serves as the vice president of the Coalition (联盟) of Cancer Cooperative Groups (CCCG)—an international network of individuals who work to improve the quality of life and survival of cancer patients by increasing participation in cancer clinical trials.
She said, “One of the really important things is, we’re trying to make sure that cancer clinical trials can get to every single patient who needs them in my own state.” The coalition set up sites in northern and southern Wyoming that are able to run clinical trials. Before those trials became available, patients would usually go to Denver or Salt Lake City—a three-to-seven-hour drive.
Monica’s efforts to increase access to the health care needs of her rural Wyoming patients also include helping to develop new policies that will allow patients to participate in more clinical trials, and linking them with a regional doctor who can get them the access to the care they need.
In addition to the clinical trials, Monica said that technology’s progress like better cell phone and internet service in the mountains of Wyoming, as well as social media, has helped rural residents stay in touch with loved ones and medical professionals despite their distance. She is trying to advocate strongly for those changes to continue.
“I still consider myself part of Wyoming and I am very devoted to making sure that patients canget access to care.”
24.What do rural cancer patients in Wyoming need most
A.Better housing. B.Medical treatment. C.Further education. D.Public transportation.
25.How has Monica helped the cancer patients
A.By training medical professionals. B.By advocating financial aid.
C.By improving internet service. D.By offering clinical trials.
26.Which of the following can best describe Monica
A.Determined and loyal. B.Honest and generous.
C.Dedicated and responsible. D.Grateful and courageous.
27.What is a suitable title for the text
A.A helper for cancer patients B.A push for progress
C.A pioneer for cancer treatment D.A hope for cancer patients
C
While temperatures continue to climb, visitors are still coming to see Death Valley National Park on the California-Nevada border. The park is known as the hottest place on Earth. This past weekend, the temperatures climbed to 53.33℃. Most visitors at this time of year make it only a short distance to any area in the park before returning to the cool air in their vehicles.
Early information from the park service shows that across the nation’s 424 national parks, at least four people have died this year from heat-related causes. That includes a 65-year-old man from San Diego who was found dead at Death Valley earlier this month.
Death Valley National Park suggests visitors be careful and not have expectations of rescue. While park rangers (护林员) drive on park roads and can aid tourists in need, it is unsure that lost visitors will get help in time.
Physical activity can make the heat feel even worse and leave people exhausted. Alessia Dempster, who was visiting from Edinburgh, Scotland, said, “It’s very hot especially when there’s a gentle wind. You would think maybe that would give you some slight relief from the heat, but it just really does feel like an air blow dryer just going back in your face.”
Death Valley is a narrow area that is below sea level and surrounded by high mountains, the park service’s website says. The dry air and small plant coverage let sunlight heat up the park surface. The heat then becomes trapped in the valley.
Still, several areas in Death Valley continue to draw tourists. Badwater Basin, made up of salt flats, is considered the lowest point in all of North America. The 183-meter Ubehebe Crater dates back over 2,000 years. And Zabriskie Point is a great sunrise viewing spot.
Josh Miller, a visitor from Indianapolis who has been to 20 national parks so far, shared that feeling. “It’s hot, but the scenery is awesome,” he said.
28.What do most visitors do in Death Valley
A.Cool themselves in time. B.Do lots of physical exercises.
C.Stay away from park rangers. D.Carry dryers with themselves.
29.Why does the author mention the 65-year-old man in paragraph 2
A.To encourage the elderly to travel more.
B.To express admiration for mountain climbers.
C.To advise people to tour Death Valley more often.
D.To show the danger of traveling in Death Valley.
30.What does paragraph 5 mainly tell us about Death Valley
A.Its covering area. B.Its attractive spots.
C.The reason why it is so hot. D.The service of its park’s website.
31.What can be inferred about Death Valley from the last two paragraphs
A.It has a short history. B.It is worth visiting.
C.It draws fewer and fewer tourists. D.It is unsuitable for viewing sunrise.
D
According to new research, babies recognize pretence and around half of children can pretend by themselves by 12 months. The study, led by the University of Bristol, shows for the first time how children’s awareness and grasp of pretence in its various forms develops from birth to three years old.
The lead author said, “Our findings highlight how pretending is a complex, evolving (进化的)process which begins very early on in life, helping their cognitive (认知的) and social skills to advance. Pretence is a key part of children’s learning, creativity, making friends, and understanding of other people. This study maps its many different stages and types.”
The findings are based on results from a survey of 900 parents of children aged from birth up to three years old from the UK, the US, Australia, and Canada. The earliest reported age when children understand pretence was four months and by the age of 13 months, around half were reported to discern pretence by others. Around half of 12-month-olds were reported to be pretending regularly themselves.
Researchers identified 18 different types of pretence which emerge and progress in the early years. One-year-olds’ pretence was shown to initially involve their bodies, for example, pretending to sleep. They may also gesture objects and actions, such as brushing their teeth with a finger or pretending with objects for their intended purpose like drinking out of an empty cup.
The researchers hope their research will help parents and preschool teachers understand and identify which types of pretence are appropriate to try with children at certain ages, supporting their learning, creativity, and friendships.
The lead author said, “With further research, the findings have the potential to be used as a diagnostic tool for developmental differences in early years. This could ultimately help parents, preschool educators, and medical professionals better understand how to play with children at different stages of development.”
32.How can pretence impact babies
A.By enhancing their physical strength. B.By boosting their cognitive development.
C.By making them more resistant to illness. D.By teaching them to read and write earlier.
33.What does the underlined word “discern” in paragraph 3 mean
A.Recognize. B.Force. C.Interrupt. D.Criticise.
34.What might the findings bring
A.New learning skills in science. B.Changes in secondary education.
C.Better play methods for primary students. D.Ways to assess developmental differences.
35.What can be the best title for the text
A.How Babies Learn to Pretend B.The Process of Pretence in Children
C.New Insights into Early Childhood Pretence D.The Role of Pretence in Human Development

Music is a huge part of our lives. 36 But do we realize just how much of an influence it really has on us
● 37
There’s nothing quite like a song to capture what was going on culturally at that time. The slang and language usage are so indicative of the times, and you can probably recall when a song was made based on what is mentioned.
●It teaches us about language.
Most parents sing to their child from an early age, as singing is such an important part of learning a language. If you take another language, chances are you learn key words and phrases through songs. 38 For example, if you were asked to memorize sentences in Spanish you’d probably have a hard time, but you can sing out a few lines of the Macarena.
●It’s how we celebrate.
Pretty much every moment we celebrate in our lives is tied to music—blowing out our birthday candles, scoring a goal, etc. 39 Holidays around the world have distinct music that accompanies them. A party without music just isn’t a party at all.
●It’s part of our routine.
Music just becomes so intertwined with our lives. While we’re cooking, cleaning, or just walking around the grocery store, it’s always there. It’s what we do when we’re happy or sad, and it’s become our self-care. 40
Music has become our favourite pastime, distraction, hobby and art form. It’s SO necessary for shaping us and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
A.It is like a time capsule.
B.Music helps us find our identity.
C.Without it we’d probably be lost.
D.It provides an form of repetition contributing to memory.
E.It is a unique and beautiful experience that only music can provide.
F.We even get down to music in our heads when we do a happy dance.
G.It’s our time to be alone and drown out the stress and the world around us.

Reflecting on my journey, I realize the importance of 54 “alternative selves” earlier. Acknowledging my disinterest in lab research sooner could have guided me through my career change with less anxiety. Science offers 55 paths beyond traditional academia, and I now feel I’m on the right track.

A new study by researchers from the University of Toronto, Hangzhou Normal University and Harvard University has found that 56 (simple) expressing trust in young children can promote their honesty.
Conducted through 57 series of field experiments with 328 kindergarteners, the international study was intended to know whether children were less likely to cheat in a simple test of counting accuracy if the adult 58 (direct) the test had previously conveyed her trust in them. The results showed that when adults trusted children to help with small tasks, such as holding their house keys, and 59 (express) that they would trust them in the future, the children were significantly less likely to cheat on a subsequent test compared to children 60 weren’t given such trust messages.
“We were astonished by how powerful an effect a simple expression of trust had 61 children’s subsequent honesty was,” said Professor Li Zhao of Hangzhou Normal University. “It seems that even at a young age, children understand the value of trust and are willing to behave more honestly in response to feeling 62 (trust).”
Not only do the findings have important theoretical implications, but they also offer 63 (practice) guidance to help parents and educators in developing moral character from an early age. “ 64 (we) results point to the promise of using trust rather than threats or punishment 65 (develop) good qualities in children,” said Dr. Zhao.

67.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。
My birth was a little more dramatic than the standard way a baby enters the world. Within minutes of coming out, doctors gave my parents the difficult news: I was born missing my left hand.
Indeed, that announcement of my limb difference might have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. I’m told that a nurse placed me m my mother’s arms and instructed: “You will take her home. You will love her. you will raise her like you would any child. You will treat her as normal” My parents took that instruction seriously, I played sport, acted in theatre, excelled in school, participated in student government and had playdates. while I did set some stares and ‘polite’ questions about my disability, I am lucky because I wasn’t made fun of for my limb difference.
As kids do, I learned to adapt. One of earliest memories is my father trying to teach me to tie my shoes. I gently pushed him out of the way because his two=handed method wouldn’t work for me, and I figured out a way to do it with one hand. Not every challenge was that simple, however. Because my parents were trying so hard to make me feel ‘normal’, that also meant I didn’t really have space to talk about my limb difference—and it was different. No matter how hard we tried, other kids had two hands and I had only one.
The fact that I was different hit me hard my first day of high school. I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-conscious. I remember getting on the bus and one of the other kids stared just a little too long at my left arm. The staring upset me in a way it never had before, and I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I immediately slipped it into my pocket.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I spent the next two decades keeping my limb difference hidden at all times.
The journey of hiding to unhiding is hard, but the efforts were rewarding.

How to improve concentration
Good morning, everyone,
A recent survey has found that students these days can not concentrate long enough, arousing much concern.
I think there could be many underlying factors. The constant exposure to digital devices, for example, may result in decreased productivity, Prolonged hours of school work, meanwhile, may also hinder the ability to focus.
To improve the situation, we students should realize the importance of concentration, and exercise control. Besides, self-discipline of course comes first, but we can also turn to adults for help when necessary.
To sum up, immediate efforts should be made to address the problem and right the wrong. Thank you for your attention!
67.Possible version:
I spent the next two decades keeping my limb difference hidden at all times. I’d keep my hand in my pocket, cover it with extra-long sleeves or tuck it behind bags or underneath jackets. In my mind, I had decided that my missing hand made me extremely ugly and that if people knew about it they would not want to be around me anymore. I internalised this self-loathing, and it only strengthened over the years, When I finally realized I was not thriving, I was determined to stop it.
The journey of hiding to unhiding was hard, but the efforts were rewarding. I learned that being comfortable with myself made other people more comfortable as well. Talking about my struggles gave them permission to talk about theirs as well, and I was able to bond on a deeper level with a much larger group of people. For 25 years, I’ve worked in non-profit organisations working with young people. Accepting my disability has sparked a passion in me to educate others about disability as part of diversity, through public speaking and writing.
