In a new set of studies, researchers found that people showed greater goal commitment and performance when they told their goal to someone they believed had higher status（地位） than themselves. In these studies, higher-status people were those who the participants thought had more prestige（威望） than they did.
In one study, 17l undergraduate students were seated at computers and told they had to move a slider（滑块） on the screen to the number 50 as many times as possible within the given time. After counting how many times they successfully did this, they had to do it again, but this time they were told to set and write down a goal.
The experimenter then informed the participants that a lab assistant would come around and check on their goals. In some cases, the lab assistant was dressed in a suit and introduced himself as a doctoral student in the business school who was an expert on today's study topic. For other participants, the same lab assistant dressed in casual clothing and introduced himself as a student at a local community college who was working part time at the business school. A third group of participants didn't share their goals with the lab assistant.
Results showed that participants who shared their goals with the higher-status lab assistant reported they were more willing to achieve the goal they set for themselves than those who told the lower-status assistant. And participants who shared their goal with the lower-status assistant performed no better than those who told no one about their goal. "These findings provide evidence that refutes popular media recommendations that one should stay silent about a goal," said Howard Klein, lead author of the new study.
"Contrary to what you may have heard, in most cases you get more benefit from sharing your goal than if you don't as long as you share it with someone whose opinion you value," Klein said. "You don't want him to think less of you because you didn't achieve your goal."
4．Why did the lab assistant change his clothes
A．To act out roles of different status.
B．To approach the students more easily.
C．To work for different business schools.
D．To avoid being recognized by the students.
5．What does the underlined word "refutes" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Deals with. B．Catches up with.
C．Says no to. D．Relies on.
6．Why do we benefit from sharing our goals with the right person
A．We care about what he thinks of us.
B．We get useful advice and support from him.
C．We improve ourselves according to his opinions.
D．We find a strong sense of purpose by sharing.
7．What might be the suitable title for the text
A．Share your goals — but do use the right words
B．Share your goals — but be careful who you tell
C．Share your goals — and you'll surely achieve them
D．Share your goals — and you'll get mentally strong

They thought it was going to be easy. A piece of cake. The band, Suenalo, were excited that they would present their skills to a group of troubled youth at a detention center (少管所).
They arrived at the invitation of a friend, who was an adviser at the center. He had mentioned a career day where members of the community came to speak to the teens about their jobs. Usually the speakers were bankers or lawyers, so he thought it would be interesting for the kids to meet some musicians and maybe even hear some music. "They need something cool to get their attention" was the pitch from the friend.
The kids, about 40, were brought in, looking distant, some even angry. Chad Bernstein, the trombone player, started telling the career of a musician from touring to copyright to the business aspects, trying to draw their interest. However， it didn't. Sensing that they couldn't win, the band，a little thrown, decided to play one song. With music going, the kids seemed to respond, their heads nodding to the beat. One of them sang a lyric. The band sang it back. Then, one by one, the musicians began picking up the beat. Chad started free styling a rap, going back and forth with the kid, and in no time, other kids jumped in. Suddenly the band and the kids were creating a song from scratch and all of them were in musical heaven.
For Chad, that moment inspired him to found Guitars Over Guns, an organization that pairs at-risk middle-schoolers with professional musicians. As both music teachers and life coaches，the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. Over time, the kids have dropped their tough fronts and shared personal stories, from family tragedies 10 ordinary struggles at school with friends.
"So far we've helped over 2, 700 students. Our work is highly satisfying because it shows us that a music career is more than a job, it can have more impact," says Chad Bernstein.
8．Why did the band come to the detention center
A．To get attention. B．To display skills.
C．To plan their careers. D．To chat about music.
9．What can we learn about the song created on the spot
A．Its lyrics were from the kids.
B．Chad owned its copyright.
C．The kids picked up its beat.
D．It was composed cooperatively.
10．What does Guitars Over Guns do to help at- risk teens
A．Relate personal stories. B．Give full school instruction.
C．Offer guidance on life. D．Promote awareness of risks.
11．What kind of person is Chad Bernstein
A．Purposeful. B．Disciplined. C．Humorous. D．Traditional.
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Quantum ( 量子 ) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I've also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.
For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us "cure cancer, and even take steps to turn climate change in the opposite direction." This is the sort of hype ( 炒作 ) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can't keep. "What's new," Johnson wrote, "is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers."
As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work's potential. If researchers can't keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because "‘quantum' stands for something cool you shouldn't be able to understand." And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.
After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016. Taylor shares Johnson's concerns about hype, but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.
The company he says, is closer than any other firm "by a very large margin ( 幅度 )" to building a "useful" quantum computer, one that "solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise." He adds, "People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others."
Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition "by a wide margin", as Taylor claims I don't know. I'm certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.
12．Regarding Johnson's concerns, the author feels ____.
A．sympathetic B．unconcerned C．doubtful D．excited
13．What leads to Taylor's optimism about quantum computing
A．His dominance in physics.
B．The competition in the field.
C．His confidence in PyQuantum.
D．The investment of tech companies.
14．What does the underlined word "prone" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A．Open. B．Cool. C．Useful. D．Resistant.
15．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Is Johnson More Competent Than Taylor
B．Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology
C．Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being
D．Will Quantum Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype

Are you too responsible？
Taking responsibility is an essential element of strong leadership. But when the scales tip to over-responsibility, both the leader and their team suffer. 16．
Define what you're truly responsible for. When it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, try the following pie-chart exercise. 17． Draw a circle on your paper and allocate responsibility for the situation to each person on your list. Add up those amounts and determine the remaining percentage. The amount left over is your actual share of responsibility.
Examine your assumptions. To start overturning your over-responsibility habit, examine the beliefs and fears that keep it alive. Are they really true Reframe the release of responsibility and consider that you're empowering others. Allow them to struggle with a task, solve their own problem, or own up to a mistake. 18．
Give responsibilities back. Whether you willingly assumed a given responsibility or it was placed on you, it's time to return it to its rightful owner. Identify one responsibility you can return to a specific person. 19． Expect a few discomfort at first, but resist the temptation to jump back in.
Accept help. If you're overly responsible, you likely say "yes" whenever others ask for help but don't ask for any yourself. It's time to rebalance your give-accept proportion 20． If someone asks if they can take something off your plate or offers to do something for you, say "yes."
Rightsizing your responsibility is not about escaping what is yours to own but finding a more appropriate balance. By taking 100% of your responsibility, but not more, you will avoid unnecessary stress and help others grow.
A.Practice accepting offers of help.
B.Grab a piece of paper and list everyone involved.
C.It may be a simple task that someone else should be doing.
D.The following strategies may help you find a more appropriate balance.
E.In this way，you help them develop greater competence and confidence.
F.Leaders who ask for help increase the feelings of connection on their team.
G.If so，these could be signs that you have an overactive sense of responsibility.

47． 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。
Before seven o'clock one Saturday morning, a large crowd had already gathered at the stadium. David sat at the starting line, his gloved hands holding his wheelchair. With his heart beating, the boy wondered if he would be able to complete the race. His classmates were all there to support him. From a distance, he could see them holding up big banners(横幅)which screamed: WE ARE WITH YOU! ALL THE WAY, DAVID! Heartened, he smiled and waved back. He was not going to let them down.
Born with a severe condition that left him paralysed(瘫痪)from the waist down. At six, he underwent several surgeries to improve his condition. As a result, he was able to attend school and even took up sports to help strengthen his bones and muscles. Then, he fell in love with wheelchair racing. Unfortunately, he did not have a lot of coordination(协调)or strength but he had a will to keep going. Once, without warning, his condition took a turn for the worse and it almost destroyed his pursuit of his passion.
One day, David's teachers encouraged him to compete alongside his non-wheelchair schoolmates. Unsure and yet grateful for the opportunity, he thought he should give it a shot. By the time the race was about to begin, the sun had risen. David was glad that he was well prepared. Adjusting the cap on his head and his gloves, David was all ready to protect himself from the heat and the strong strokes to his wheelchair. David's eyes followed the starter who was waving a red flag. As soon as the gun was fired, David was off. The entire stadium erupted into thunderous cheers.
David pushed forward with all his strength, his hands holding the wheels the whole time for the long-distance race. His wheelchair rolled steadily out of the stadium, passing the shop houses. Despite doing everything he could to keep up with the other competitors, David fell behind.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Overhead, the sun continued to burn in the cloudless sky. …… He was determined to overcome every single challenge.

13．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段"The company, he says, is closer than any other firm ‘by a very large margin ( 幅度 )' to building a ‘useful' quantum computer, one that ‘solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.' He adds, ‘People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.'" 他说，这家公司比其他任何公司都"在很大程度上"接近于制造出"有用的"量子计算机，它"解决了一个有影响力的问题，否则我们无法解决这个问题"。他补充说:"人们自然会不相信我的观点，但我已经花了很多时间来定量地比较我们与他人的做法。可知，泰勒对量子计算的乐观来源于他对PyQuantum的信心。故选C。
14．考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的"But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because ‘‘quantum' stands for something cool you shouldn't be able to understand.'" 但约翰逊表明，量子计算的某些方面使得它特别 prone被炒作，可能是因为"量子"代表了一些你不应该理解的酷东西。"可知，本句中含有一个原因状语从句，因为""量子"代表了一些你不应该理解的酷东西"，所以它特别容易被炒作。可推断prone意为"易于……的"。故选A。
15．考查标题归纳。根据第二段中的"Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us ‘cure cancer, and even take steps to turn climate change in the opposite direction. This is the sort of hype ( 炒作 ) that annoys Johnson.'" 现在，大型科技公司和许多小型公司都在量子计算领域进行了投资。据《商业周刊》报道，量子机器可以帮助我们"治愈癌症，甚至采取措施将气候变化转向相反的方向。这种炒作让约翰逊感到恼火。"；以及最后一段"Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition ‘by a wide margin', as Taylor claims I don't know. I'm certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers."PyQuantum真的能像泰勒所说的那样"以巨大的优势"领先所有竞争对手吗？我不知道。我当然不会建议我的朋友或其他人投资量子计算机。但我信任泰勒，就像我信任约翰逊一样。可知，本文主要论述了"量子计算真的会像它的宣传那样成功吗？"，计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊和物理学家菲利普·泰勒分别阐明了自己的观点。"量子计算真的会像它的宣传那样成功吗？"适合做文章标题，故选D。

16．前文"Taking responsibility is an essential element of strong leadership. But when the scales tip to over-responsibility, both the leader and their team suffer. (承担责任是强大领导力的基本要素。但当天平向过度负责倾斜时，领导者和他的团队都会遭殃)"提到承担责任是优秀的品质，但过度负责会有负面影响，后文段落主要给出了避免过度负责的策略，空处应该提到有取得平衡的策略，因此D项"The following strategies may help you find a more appropriate balance. (下面的策略可以帮助你找到一个更合适的平衡)"符合语境，承接前文，其中的balance和前文的scales呼应，The following strategies统领后文内容。故选D。
17．前文"When it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, try the following pie-chart exercise. (当感觉整个世界的重量都压在你的肩膀上时，试试下面的饼图练习)"建议采用饼图练习来减轻责任的重量，后文"Draw a circle on your paper and allocate (分配) responsibility for the situation to each person on your list. (在你的纸上画一个圈，把这种情况的责任分配给清单上的每个人)"具体描述这种练习的方法，提到把责任分配到各人，空处应该与列出涉及到的人相关，因此B项"Grab a piece of paper and list everyone involved. (拿一张纸，列出所有相关人员)"符合语境，承上启下，其中的list everyone involved与后文的each person on your list呼应。故选B。
18．前文"Reframe the release of responsibility and consider that you're empowering others. Allow them to struggle with a task, solve their own problem, or own up to a mistake. (重新定义放开责任，并认为你是在赋予他人权力。允许他们努力完成任务，解决他们自己的问题，或者承认错误)"建议改变看法，把放开责任看作是赋予他人权力，让他人承担自己的责任，空处会应该描述这样做的好处，因此E项"In this way, you help them develop greater competence and confidence. (这样，你可以帮助他们培养更强的能力和信心)"符合语境，承接前文，其中的this way指代前一句的内容。故选E。
19．前文"Whether you willingly assumed a given responsibility or it was placed on you, it's time to return it to its rightful owner. Identify one responsibility you can return to a specific person. (不管你是自愿承担责任还是被强加给你，是时候把它还给它的合法主人了。确定一个你可以交给某个人的责任)"建议学会归还责任，首先确定该责任，空处应该会举例说明这种责任是什么，因此C项"It may be a simple task that someone else should be doing. (它可能是一个简单的任务，应该由其他人来做)"符合语境，承接前文，其中的It指代前文的one responsibility。故选C。
20．前文"It's time to rebalance your give-accept proportion. (是时候重新平衡你的给予—接受比例了)"建议学会平衡给予帮助和寻求帮助之间的比例，后文"If someone asks if they can take something off your plate or offers to do something for you, say "yes." (如果有人问你能不能帮你做点什么，或者愿意帮你做点什么，说"可以")"具体说明可以欣然接受他人提供的帮助，空处应该是总的说明学会接受帮助，因此A项"Practice accepting offers of help. (练习接受别人提供的帮助)"符合语境，承上启下，其中的accepting和前文的accept呼应。故选A。

In a new set of studies, researchers found that people showed greater goal commitment and performance when they told their goal to someone they believed had higher status（地位） than themselves. In these studies, higher-status people were those who the participants thought had more prestige（威望） than they did.
In one study, 17l undergraduate students were seated at computers and told they had to move a slider（滑块） on the screen to the number 50 as many times as possible within the given time. After counting how many times they successfully did this, they had to do it again, but this time they were told to set and write down a goal.
The experimenter then informed the participants that a lab assistant would come around and check on their goals. In some cases, the lab assistant was dressed in a suit and introduced himself as a doctoral student in the business school who was an expert on today's study topic. For other participants, the same lab assistant dressed in casual clothing and introduced himself as a student at a local community college who was working part time at the business school. A third group of participants didn't share their goals with the lab assistant.
Results showed that participants who shared their goals with the higher-status lab assistant reported they were more willing to achieve the goal they set for themselves than those who told the lower-status assistant. And participants who shared their goal with the lower-status assistant performed no better than those who told no one about their goal. "These findings provide evidence that refutes popular media recommendations that one should stay silent about a goal," said Howard Klein, lead author of the new study.
"Contrary to what you may have heard, in most cases you get more benefit from sharing your goal than if you don't as long as you share it with someone whose opinion you value," Klein said. "You don't want him to think less of you because you didn't achieve your goal."
4．Why did the lab assistant change his clothes
A．To act out roles of different status.
B．To approach the students more easily.
C．To work for different business schools.
D．To avoid being recognized by the students.
5．What does the underlined word "refutes" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Deals with. B．Catches up with.
C．Says no to. D．Relies on.
6．Why do we benefit from sharing our goals with the right person
A．We care about what he thinks of us.
B．We get useful advice and support from him.
C．We improve ourselves according to his opinions.
D．We find a strong sense of purpose by sharing.
7．What might be the suitable title for the text
A．Share your goals — but do use the right words
B．Share your goals — but be careful who you tell
C．Share your goals — and you'll surely achieve them
D．Share your goals — and you'll get mentally strong

They thought it was going to be easy. A piece of cake. The band, Suenalo, were excited that they would present their skills to a group of troubled youth at a detention center (少管所).
They arrived at the invitation of a friend, who was an adviser at the center. He had mentioned a career day where members of the community came to speak to the teens about their jobs. Usually the speakers were bankers or lawyers, so he thought it would be interesting for the kids to meet some musicians and maybe even hear some music. "They need something cool to get their attention" was the pitch from the friend.
The kids, about 40, were brought in, looking distant, some even angry. Chad Bernstein, the trombone player, started telling the career of a musician from touring to copyright to the business aspects, trying to draw their interest. However， it didn't. Sensing that they couldn't win, the band，a little thrown, decided to play one song. With music going, the kids seemed to respond, their heads nodding to the beat. One of them sang a lyric. The band sang it back. Then, one by one, the musicians began picking up the beat. Chad started free styling a rap, going back and forth with the kid, and in no time, other kids jumped in. Suddenly the band and the kids were creating a song from scratch and all of them were in musical heaven.
For Chad, that moment inspired him to found Guitars Over Guns, an organization that pairs at-risk middle-schoolers with professional musicians. As both music teachers and life coaches，the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. Over time, the kids have dropped their tough fronts and shared personal stories, from family tragedies 10 ordinary struggles at school with friends.
"So far we've helped over 2, 700 students. Our work is highly satisfying because it shows us that a music career is more than a job, it can have more impact," says Chad Bernstein.
8．Why did the band come to the detention center
A．To get attention. B．To display skills.
C．To plan their careers. D．To chat about music.
9．What can we learn about the song created on the spot
A．Its lyrics were from the kids.
B．Chad owned its copyright.
C．The kids picked up its beat.
D．It was composed cooperatively.
10．What does Guitars Over Guns do to help at- risk teens
A．Relate personal stories. B．Give full school instruction.
C．Offer guidance on life. D．Promote awareness of risks.
11．What kind of person is Chad Bernstein
A．Purposeful. B．Disciplined. C．Humorous. D．Traditional.
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Quantum ( 量子 ) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I've also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.
For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us "cure cancer, and even take steps to turn climate change in the opposite direction." This is the sort of hype ( 炒作 ) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can't keep. "What's new," Johnson wrote, "is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers."
As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work's potential. If researchers can't keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because "‘quantum' stands for something cool you shouldn't be able to understand." And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.
After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016. Taylor shares Johnson's concerns about hype, but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.
The company he says, is closer than any other firm "by a very large margin ( 幅度 )" to building a "useful" quantum computer, one that "solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise." He adds, "People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others."
Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition "by a wide margin", as Taylor claims I don't know. I'm certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.
12．Regarding Johnson's concerns, the author feels ____.
A．sympathetic B．unconcerned C．doubtful D．excited
13．What leads to Taylor's optimism about quantum computing
A．His dominance in physics.
B．The competition in the field.
C．His confidence in PyQuantum.
D．The investment of tech companies.
14．What does the underlined word "prone" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A．Open. B．Cool. C．Useful. D．Resistant.
15．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Is Johnson More Competent Than Taylor
B．Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology
C．Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being
D．Will Quantum Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype

Are you too responsible？
Taking responsibility is an essential element of strong leadership. But when the scales tip to over-responsibility, both the leader and their team suffer. 16．
Define what you're truly responsible for. When it feels like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, try the following pie-chart exercise. 17． Draw a circle on your paper and allocate responsibility for the situation to each person on your list. Add up those amounts and determine the remaining percentage. The amount left over is your actual share of responsibility.
Examine your assumptions. To start overturning your over-responsibility habit, examine the beliefs and fears that keep it alive. Are they really true Reframe the release of responsibility and consider that you're empowering others. Allow them to struggle with a task, solve their own problem, or own up to a mistake. 18．
Give responsibilities back. Whether you willingly assumed a given responsibility or it was placed on you, it's time to return it to its rightful owner. Identify one responsibility you can return to a specific person. 19． Expect a few discomfort at first, but resist the temptation to jump back in.
Accept help. If you're overly responsible, you likely say "yes" whenever others ask for help but don't ask for any yourself. It's time to rebalance your give-accept proportion 20． If someone asks if they can take something off your plate or offers to do something for you, say "yes."
Rightsizing your responsibility is not about escaping what is yours to own but finding a more appropriate balance. By taking 100% of your responsibility, but not more, you will avoid unnecessary stress and help others grow.
A.Practice accepting offers of help.
B.Grab a piece of paper and list everyone involved.
C.It may be a simple task that someone else should be doing.
D.The following strategies may help you find a more appropriate balance.
E.In this way，you help them develop greater competence and confidence.
F.Leaders who ask for help increase the feelings of connection on their team.
G.If so，these could be signs that you have an overactive sense of responsibility.

47． 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。
Before seven o'clock one Saturday morning, a large crowd had already gathered at the stadium. David sat at the starting line, his gloved hands holding his wheelchair. With his heart beating, the boy wondered if he would be able to complete the race. His classmates were all there to support him. From a distance, he could see them holding up big banners(横幅)which screamed: WE ARE WITH YOU! ALL THE WAY, DAVID! Heartened, he smiled and waved back. He was not going to let them down.
Born with a severe condition that left him paralysed(瘫痪)from the waist down. At six, he underwent several surgeries to improve his condition. As a result, he was able to attend school and even took up sports to help strengthen his bones and muscles. Then, he fell in love with wheelchair racing. Unfortunately, he did not have a lot of coordination(协调)or strength but he had a will to keep going. Once, without warning, his condition took a turn for the worse and it almost destroyed his pursuit of his passion.
One day, David's teachers encouraged him to compete alongside his non-wheelchair schoolmates. Unsure and yet grateful for the opportunity, he thought he should give it a shot. By the time the race was about to begin, the sun had risen. David was glad that he was well prepared. Adjusting the cap on his head and his gloves, David was all ready to protect himself from the heat and the strong strokes to his wheelchair. David's eyes followed the starter who was waving a red flag. As soon as the gun was fired, David was off. The entire stadium erupted into thunderous cheers.
David pushed forward with all his strength, his hands holding the wheels the whole time for the long-distance race. His wheelchair rolled steadily out of the stadium, passing the shop houses. Despite doing everything he could to keep up with the other competitors, David fell behind.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Overhead, the sun continued to burn in the cloudless sky. …… He was determined to overcome every single challenge.

本文是一篇应用文，是招聘体育休闲与设施助理的信息。
考查阅读理解，包含细节理解题、推理判断题，是一则招聘广告，注意先略读文章，掌握文章大意，再分析题干及选项，到文中找到相关内容并进行理解。
1．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"We are looking for individuals who hold a current National Pool Lifeguard Qualification..."我们正在寻找持有当前国家游泳池救生员资格的个人。可知即该职位特别要求持有当前的国家泳池救生员资格证书。故选A。
2．细节理解题。根据最后一段中的"Please send your application to Jane Black (recruitment@ domain.net) by 9:00 am on November 8,2024."请将您的申请于24年11月8日上午9点前发送给Jane Black(recruitment@domain.net)。说明应聘者应该通过电子邮件提交申请。故选D。
3．推理判断题。通读全文可知，介绍了一个体育休闲与设施助理的职位，包括职位要求、工作内容、培训机会以及申请方式等详细信息。这些内容符合招聘广告的特点。因此该文是"一则招聘广告"，故选B。

本文是一篇说明文，提出在大多数情况下，只要你与你重视的人分享目标，你就可以从分享目标中获得更多好处。
本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和标题归纳四个题型的考查，是一篇教育类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
4．考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"In a new set of studies, researchers found that people showed greater goal commitment and performance when they told their goal to someone they believed had higher status（地位） than themselves.."在一组新的研究中，研究人员发现，当人们把自己的目标告诉他们认为比自己地位更高的人时，他们目标承诺和表现方面表现更好。可知，该研究中实验助理改变穿着是为了展示不同的地位，形成实验的对照组，故选A。
5．考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的"These findings provide evidence that refutes popular media recommendations that one should stay silent about a goal""这些发现提供了证据，反驳了流行媒体关于人们应该对目标保持沉默的建议；以及"Results showed that participants who shared their goals with the higher-status lab assistant reported they were more willing to achieve the goal they set for themselves than those who told the lower-status assistant. "结果显示，与地位较高的实验室助理分享目标的参与者表示，与那些告诉地位较低的助理的参与者相比，他们更愿意实现自己设定的目标。可知，实验的结果是鼓励分享目标，所以，实验结果与普遍流行的观点相反，所以应该是反驳，划线词 refutes 是"反驳"之意，故选C。
6．考查细节理解。根据最后一段"‘Contrary to what you may have heard, in most cases you get more benefit from sharing your goal than if you don't as long as you share it with someone whose opinion you value,' Klein said. ‘You don't want him to think less of you because you didn't achieve your goal.'"克莱恩说："与你可能听说的相反，在大多数情况下，只要你与你重视的人分享目标，你就可以从分享目标中获得更多好处。"。"你不希望他因为你没有达到目标而轻视你。"可知，之所以表现更好是因为在乎他们对自己的看法，故选A。
7．考查标题归纳。根据第四段"Results showed that participants who shared their goals with the higher-status lab assistant reported they were more willing to achieve the goal they set for themselves than those who told the lower-status assistant. And participants who shared their goal with the lower-status assistant performed no better than those who told no one about their goal."结果显示，与地位较高的实验室助理分享目标的参与者表示，与那些告诉地位较低的助理的参与者相比，他们更愿意实现自己设定的目标。与地位较低的助理分享目标的参与者的表现并不比那些不告诉任何人自己目标的参与者好；以及全文可知，本文主要通过一个实验得出，与比自己地位高的人分享自己的目标有利于目标的实现，分享的对象也很重要，故选B。
8．B
9．D

本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇新闻报道，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
8．考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"The band, Suenalo, were excited that they would present their skills to a group of troubled youth at a detention center(少管所)."乐队Suenalo很兴奋，他们将在拘留中心向一群问题青年展示他们的技艺。可知，他们将去拘留中心向一群问题青年展示他们的技艺。故选B。
9．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"One of them sang a lyric(歌词). The band sang it back. Then, one by one, the musicians began picking up the beat. Chad started free styling a rap, going back and forth with the kid, and in no time, other kids jumped in. Suddenly the band and the kids were creating a song from scratch and all of them were in musical heaven. "其中一人唱了一首抒情歌曲。乐队回唱。然后，乐手们一个接一个地开始跟上节拍。查德开始自由模仿说唱，和那个孩子来回跳，很快，其他孩子也加入了进来。突然，乐队和孩子们开始从零开始创作一首歌，所有人都进入了音乐天堂。可知，现场的歌曲是由乐队和孩子们共同创作的。故选D。
10．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"As both music teachers and life coaches, the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. "作为音乐老师和生活教练，音乐家们给孩子们提供了一种找到他们创造性声音的方式，并度过了黑暗时期。可知，Guitars Over Guns帮助孩子们提供生活指导。故选C。
11．考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的"For Chad, that moment inspired him to found Guitars Over Guns, an organization that pairs at-risk middle-schoolers with professional musicians. As both music teachers and life coaches, the musicians give the kids a way to find their creative voices and get through dark times. "对查德来说，那一刻激发了他创立Guitars Over Guns的灵感，这是一个帮助处境危险的中学生与专业音乐家结对的组织。作为音乐老师和生活教练，音乐家们给孩子们提供了一种找到他们创造性声音的方式，并度过了黑暗时期；以及最后一段" ‘So far we've helped over 2,700 students. Our work is highly satisfying because it shows us that a music career is more than a job, it can have more impact,' says Chad Bernstein. ""到目前为止，我们已经帮助了2700多名学生。我们的工作非常令人满意，因为它告诉我们，音乐事业不仅仅是一份工作，它可以产生更大的影响，"查德伯恩斯坦说。Chad Bernstein给孩子提供了有意义的指导，帮助了很多学生，可推知，他所做的工作是有意义的且目标明确的。故选A。

本文是一篇议论文，论述了"量子计算真的会像它的宣传那样成功吗？"，计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊和物理学家菲利普·泰勒分别阐明了自己的观点。
本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和标题归纳四个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
12．考查推理判断。根据第三段中的"As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work's potential. If researchers can't keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. "随着量子计算吸引了更多的关注和资金，研究人员可能会误导投资者、记者、公众，最糟糕的是，他们自己的工作潜力。约翰逊警告说，如果研究人员不能兑现承诺，兴奋可能会让位于怀疑、失望和愤怒；以及最后一段" But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson."但我相信泰勒，就像我相信约翰逊一样。可知，关于约翰逊的担忧，作者是支持的。故选A。
13．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段"The company, he says, is closer than any other firm ‘by a very large margin ( 幅度 )' to building a ‘useful' quantum computer, one that ‘solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.' He adds, ‘People will naturally discount my opinions, but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.'" 他说，这家公司比其他任何公司都"在很大程度上"接近于制造出"有用的"量子计算机，它"解决了一个有影响力的问题，否则我们无法解决这个问题"。他补充说:"人们自然会不相信我的观点，但我已经花了很多时间来定量地比较我们与他人的做法。可知，泰勒对量子计算的乐观来源于他对PyQuantum的信心。故选C。
14．考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的"But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because ‘‘quantum' stands for something cool you shouldn't be able to understand.'" 但约翰逊表明，量子计算的某些方面使得它特别 prone被炒作，可能是因为"量子"代表了一些你不应该理解的酷东西。"可知，本句中含有一个原因状语从句，因为""量子"代表了一些你不应该理解的酷东西"，所以它特别容易被炒作。可推断prone意为"易于……的"。故选A。
15．考查标题归纳。根据第二段中的"Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us ‘cure cancer, and even take steps to turn climate change in the opposite direction. This is the sort of hype ( 炒作 ) that annoys Johnson.'" 现在，大型科技公司和许多小型公司都在量子计算领域进行了投资。据《商业周刊》报道，量子机器可以帮助我们"治愈癌症，甚至采取措施将气候变化转向相反的方向。这种炒作让约翰逊感到恼火。"；以及最后一段"Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition ‘by a wide margin', as Taylor claims I don't know. I'm certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers."PyQuantum真的能像泰勒所说的那样"以巨大的优势"领先所有竞争对手吗？我不知道。我当然不会建议我的朋友或其他人投资量子计算机。但我信任泰勒，就像我信任约翰逊一样。可知，本文主要论述了"量子计算真的会像它的宣传那样成功吗？"，计算机科学家克里斯·约翰逊和物理学家菲利普·泰勒分别阐明了自己的观点。"量子计算真的会像它的宣传那样成功吗？"适合做文章标题，故选D。

18．前文"Reframe the release of responsibility and consider that you're empowering others. Allow them to struggle with a task, solve their own problem, or own up to a mistake. (重新定义放开责任，并认为你是在赋予他人权力。允许他们努力完成任务，解决他们自己的问题，或者承认错误)"建议改变看法，把放开责任看作是赋予他人权力，让他人承担自己的责任，空处会应该描述这样做的好处，因此E项"In this way, you help them develop greater competence and confidence. (这样，你可以帮助他们培养更强的能力和信心)"符合语境，承接前文，其中的this way指代前一句的内容。故选E。
19．前文"Whether you willingly assumed a given responsibility or it was placed on you, it's time to return it to its rightful owner. Identify one responsibility you can return to a specific person. (不管你是自愿承担责任还是被强加给你，是时候把它还给它的合法主人了。确定一个你可以交给某个人的责任)"建议学会归还责任，首先确定该责任，空处应该会举例说明这种责任是什么，因此C项"It may be a simple task that someone else should be doing. (它可能是一个简单的任务，应该由其他人来做)"符合语境，承接前文，其中的It指代前文的one responsibility。故选C。
20．前文"It's time to rebalance your give-accept proportion.

He was deiermined to overcome every single challenge.Removing his cap and throwing it away,he gathered up all hisstrength and pushed hard forward.Just at that time,the crowd shouted again,"Go,David,go!"Then,he felt as if he wereflying at an unstoppable speed.Ten minutes later,the tape was finally coming into view.Delighted and grateful,he wentpast the ribbon.The entire stadium was filled with victorious screams because David's persistence paid off.
