A
Four Famous Female Scientists
Katherine Johnson
Katherine Johnson graduated from college — with honors — at the same age most people graduated from high school. She later applied to a program at the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and earned a spot as one of the agency’s human computers. One of Katherine’s most important jobs was calculating the path of the first American manned spaceflight in 1961 and the Apollo moon landing in 1969.
Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin
When Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin became the first woman to receive a PhD from Harvard’s Radeliffe College, no one knew how much her doctoral paper would change the world of science. Her conclusion that stars are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium (氦) contradicted the main theory of the time, and some of the day’s leading scientists openly questioned her findings. It would take more than a decade for another scientist to reach the same conclusion.
Lise Meitner
Lise Meitner is one of only two women to have an element named in her honor — the element with the atomic number 109 is called meitnerium. She was the first physics professor in Germany and the first scientist to include the term“nuclear fission (裂变)” in a published paper. During her career, she discovered what causes the Auger Effect, explained how nuclear fission works, and uncovered the element protactinium (镤).
Grace Hopper
Grace Hopper was known for her pioneering work in the development of computer programming languages. She began her career in computing and worked on the Harvard Mark I computer program. Later, she created the first program that translated code into machine language, and also developed the COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) programming language.
21. What was a notable contribution made by Katherine Johnson
A. She obtained a PhD degree at Harvard.
B. She developed a programming language.
C. She clarified the mechanism of nuclear fission .
D. She worked out the routes for major space missions.
22. Whose finding regarding stars met with resistance from premier scientists
A. Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin’s. B. Grace Hopper’s.
C. Lise Meitner’s. D. Katherine Johnson’s.
23. What do Lise Meitner and Grace Hopper have in common
A. They found novel elements.
B. They graduated from Harvard.
C. They were groundbreaking in their respective fields.
D. They were wholly engaged in computer-related work.
B
When I was growing up, my mom often said that no matter what grades I got in school, as long as I did my best, she’d be proud of me. Then she added, “But if you didn’t get an A, I’ll know you didn’t do your best.” She said it with a smile, but I took it seriously: I shouldn’t settle for anything less than perfect. My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.
Perfectionism is the desire to be 100% perfect. The goal is zero faults and no failures. In an increasingly competitive world, kids face growing pressure from parents to be perfect and severe criticism when they fall short. Every fault is a blow to their self-esteem (自尊). I’ve lived it myself.
When I won the fifth-grade quiz bowl on world explorers, I beat myself up afterward for missing one question. How could I forget that the sea route to India was discovered by da Gama, but not Magellan When I made the finals of a Mortal Kombat tournament and won a lifetime pass to a local movie theater, I didn’t celebrate. Third place is the second loser. When I won the first prize in a math test, I was disappointed. Only a 98 Not good enough. There was always a voice in the back of my mind whispering that it wasn’t enough and that I could have done better.
It was during my college years that I started to question the value of this perfectionism. I met people who didn’t seem to be weighed down by the same expectations, who accepted their mistakes and saw them as opportunities for growth rather than failures. They taught me that it was okay to be imperfect, that it was human to make mistakes, and that sometimes, the most important lessons come from our failures.
24. What is paragraph 1 mainly about
A. The reasons for the author’s perfectionism.
B. The disadvantages of being a perfectionist.
C. The feeling of being grateful to the author’s mother.
D. The ways of the author’s achieving good grades at school.
25.What made the author unsatisfied with what had been achieved
A. Blame from parents. B. Pressure of competitions.
C. Desire to be perfect. D. Eagerness to get first prize.
26. What caused the author to change the attitude towards perfectionism
A. Losing expectation to succeed. B. Realizing the harm of being perfect.
C. Learning lessons from other people’s failure. D. Encountering those accepting imperfection.
27. Which column of a magazine may the text be taken from
A. Parenting Styles. B. Coming-of-Age Stories.
C. People of Achievement. D. Challenges Facing Youth.
C
Nicholas Dames has taught Literature Humanities at Columbia University since 1998. He loves the job, but it has changed. Over the past decade, students have become bewildered by the thought of finishing multiple books a semester. This development puzzled Dames until a first-year student shared how challenging she had found the early assignments. The student said that at her public high school, she was only assigned passages, but not entire books. “My jaw dropped,” Dames told me. This helped explain the change: It’s not that they don’t want to read. It’s that they don’t know how.
Failing to complete a 14-line poem without giving in to distraction (干扰) suggests one familiar explanation for the decrease in reading ability: smartphones. Teenagers are constantly drawn by their devices. Reading books, even for pleasure, can’t compete with TikTok. In 1976, about 40 percent of high-school seniors said they had read at least six books for fun in the previous year, compared with 11.5 percent who hadn’t read any. By 2022, those percentages had flipped.
But high school kids appear to be encountering fewer and fewer books in the classroom as well. Since the ability to read an entire book is difficult to assess, teachers focus on skills that are easier to measure. They have shifted from books to short passages, followed by questions about the author’s main idea, just as standardized reading-comprehension tests do.
Faced with this situation, many college professors feel they have no choice but to assign less reading and lower their expectations. This means students will miss out on the mental development that comes from reading entire books. Reading enlarges your sympathies. Deep reading — sustained focus on a text — encourages a number of valuable mental habits, including critical thinking and self-reflection, in ways that skimming or reading in short passages does not.
I can imagine worse preparations for the trials, and thrills, of Literature Humanities. But we’ve never forgotten the originals. To understand the human condition, and to appreciate humankind’s greatest achievements, you still need to read The Iliad — all of it.
What does the underlined word “bewildered” mean in paragraph 1
Delighted. B. Confused. C. Amazed. D. Relieved.
Why does the author list numbers in paragraph 2
To highlight the rise of social media.
To clarify the problems of smartphones.
To illustrate the change in reading methods.
To demonstrate the decline in book reading.
What is a result of professors assigning less reading
The shortage of learning motivation.
The reduction of genuine sympathies.
The loss of cognitive growth opportunities.
The restriction of personal academic progress.
What is the author’s attitude towards reading originals
Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent.
D
Have you ever wondered what chickens are talking about Chickens are quite the communicators — their clucks, squawks and purrs are not just random sounds but a complex language system. These sounds are their way of interacting with the world and expressing joy, fear, and social connection to one another.
Like humans, the “language” of chickens varies with age, environment, and surprisingly, domestication (驯化), giving us insights into their social structures and behaviours. Understanding these sounds can transform our approach to poultry (家禽) farming, enhancing chicken welfare and quality of life.
Our research at Dalhousie University applies artificial intelligence (AI) to decode the language of chickens. It’s a project that is set to revolutionize our understanding of these feathered creatures and their communication methods, offering a window into their world that was previously closed to us. The use of AI and machine learning is like having a universal translator for chicken speech. AI can analyze vast amounts of audio data. Our algorithms (算法) are learning to recognize patterns and tiny differences in chicken sounds. This isn’t a simple task — chickens have a range of sounds that vary in pitch, tone, and context. But by using advanced data analysis techniques, we’re beginning to crack their code. This breakthrough in animal communication is not just a scientific achievement; it’s a step towards more humane and empathetic treatment of farm animals.
One of the most exciting aspects of this research is understanding the emotional content behind these sounds. Are they stressed Are they content By understanding their emotional state, we can make more informed decisions about their care and environment.
This project isn’t just about academic curiosity; it has real-world implications. We’re not only unlocking the secrets of avian (鸟类的) communication but also setting new standards for animal welfare.
What can we know about chickens from the first two paragraphs
They lack emotions.
They are capable of communication.
Their sounds are random and complex.
Their language remains constant over time.
What is the signicance of the research conducted at Dalhousie University
A. It facilitates new chicken breeds.
B. It holds great promise for animal care.
C. It solely demonstrates an academic theory.
D. It revoutionizes human-chicken interaction.
34. What is a highlight of the research
A. Uncovering chickens’ behaviours.
B. Discovering advanced feeding techniques.
C. Comprehending chickens’ emotional states.
D. Examining chickens’ living circumstances.
35. What is the main idea of the text
A. The secret of chickens’ life.
B. The future of poultry farming.
C. Enhancing animal welfare by AI.
D. Unlocking chickens’ language by AI.

One Second Every Day
I’ve been in advertising for eight years and used to work a lot of late nights and weekends for numerous projects. 36 One day I watched a talk called “The power of time off”. It’s about how every seven years, the speaker takes a year off from work so he can do his own creative projects. 37 I decided I had to do that. I need to take time to start my own creative ideas.
The first project ends up being something I call “One Second Every Day”. Basically I record one second of every day for the rest of my life, combining these moments into one single continuous video until I can’t record them anymore. 38 There’re many things I have no recollection of unless someone brings them up, and I think, “Oh, that’s something I did.”
39 On a good day, I’ll have maybe four seconds I want to choose. I’ll just have to narrow them down to one, but even narrow them down to that one allows me to remember the other three anyway.
I don’t use any filters (滤镜), just trying to catch the moment as much as possible as it is. I started a rule of the first person view. Early on, I thought I should have a couple of videos where people would see me, but I realized that wasn’t the way to go. 40
The project has many possibilities. I encourage you all to record just a small piece of your life every day, so you can never forget that day and treasure every moment.
A．It instantly inspired me.
B．The purpose is to remember what I’ve done.
C．I’m always energetic when doing things I love.
D．People might have different interpretations of it.
E．It’s difficult, sometimes, to pick that one second.
F．But I never had time for one I wanted to work on on my own.
G．The essence of my project should be recording the thing as I actually see it.

Dear Hans,
Hearing you are going to introduce high school students’ campus life with short videos, I’m eager to share a few creative ideas that might add depth and authenticity to your footage.
To start with, consider capturing the energy of students’ morning exercises. Morning routines are definitely important, which affect their mental outlook of the day. In addition, the classroom environment deserves a spotlight. Lessons are the core of school life and such footage can vividly showcase students’ learning status. Last but not least, don’t overlook various extracurricular activities. These events are perfect for highlighting students’ interests and nurturing their hobbies.
I have no doubt that your project will be a heartfelt tribute to this crucial chapter of life. Wish your program great success!
Yours,
Li Hua
【参考范文】
Just at that moment, a flood of memories popped into my mind. When I was ill, she was always by me side, tending to my every need. Each time I arrived home, my favorite dishes prepared with love, awaited me. All the tender and kind gestures she’d shown me resurfaced vividly. A profound sense of gratitude welling up within me, I realized I should go back home immediately and say sorry to her. As I stepped through the door, I saw her. Seated at the dinner table, she looked a shadow of herself. The sight of her, so tired and worried, broke my heart.
Before I could apologize, my mother saw me and rushed to me. “Oh, my dear, you’re finally home! I have prepared your favorite noodles.” she exclaimed, her voice thick with emotion and love. Upon hearing those simple, yet heartfelt words, I couldn't hold back any longer. Without a second thought, I closed the distance between us and threw myself into her arms. “Mom, I'm so sorry. Please, please forgive me,” I choked out, my voice trembling. Hot tears streamed down my face, consumed by shame and relief. In that embrace, I knew the love would always be there, unwavering and unconditional.
答案解析
【A篇解析】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了四位著名女科学家。
21. D细节理解题。根据第一段“One of Katherine’s most important jobs was calculating the path of the first American manned spaceflight in 1961 and the Apollo moon landing in 1969.(凯瑟琳最重要的工作之一是计算1961年美国首次载人航天飞行和1969年阿波罗登月的路径)”可知，凯瑟琳·约翰逊的重要贡献之一是为重要的太空任务计算飞行路径，故选D。
22. A细节理解题。根据Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin部分中“Her conclusion that stars are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium (氦) contradicted the main theory of the time, and some of the day’s leading scientists openly questioned her findings.(她关于恒星主要由氢和氦组成的结论与当时的主流理论相矛盾，一些当时的顶尖科学家公开质疑她的发现)”可知，Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin关于恒星的结论遭到了顶尖科学家的反对。故选A。
23. C细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“She was the first physics professor in Germany and the first scientist to include the term “nuclear fission (裂变)” in a published paper.(她是德国第一位物理学教授，也是第一位在发表的论文中使用“核裂变”一词的科学家)”以及最后一段“Grace Hopper was known for her pioneering work in the development of computer programming languages.(格蕾丝·霍珀因其在计算机编程语言开发方面的开创性工作而闻名)”可知，莉莎·迈特纳和格蕾丝·霍珀的共同之处是在各自领域都是先驱，故选C。
【B篇解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从小到大追求完美，到大学时期因遇到一些人而改变对完美主义态度的成长故事。
A主旨大意题。根据第一段“When I was growing up, my mom often said that no matter what grades I got in school, as long as I did my best, she’d be proud of me. Then she added, “But if you didn’t get an A, I’ll know you didn’t do your best.” She said it with a smile, but I took it seriously: I shouldn’t settle for anything less than perfect. My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.(在我成长的过程中，我妈妈经常说，不管我在学校取得了什么成绩，只要我做到了最好，她就会为我感到骄傲。然后她又说：“但如果你没有得到A，我就知道你没有尽力。”她说这话时面带微笑，但我却当真了：我不应该满足于任何不完美的东西。我最大的缺点是过于追求完美)”可知，第一段主要讲的是作者成为完美主义者的原因。故选A。
C 细节理解题。根据第二段“Perfectionism is the desire to be 100% perfect. The goal is zero faults and no failures.(完美主义就是想要100%完美。目标是零错误，没有失败)”以及第三段“When I won the fifth-grade quiz bowl on world explorers, I beat myself up afterward for missing one question.(当我在五年级世界探险家竞赛中获胜时，我因为错过了一道题而自责)”可知，渴望完美让作者对已经取得的成就不满意。故选C。
D细节理解题。根据最后一段“I met people who didn’t seem to be weighed down by the same expectations, who accepted their mistakes and saw them as opportunities for growth rather than failures. They taught me that it was okay to be imperfect, that it was human to make mistakes, and that sometimes, the most important lessons come from our failures.(我遇到了一些人，他们似乎没有被同样的期望所拖累，他们接受自己的错误，把它们视为成长的机会，而不是失败。他们告诉我，不完美是可以接受的，犯错误是人之常情，有时候，最重要的教训来自于我们的失败)”可知，遇到那些接受不完美的人让作者改变了对完美主义的态度。故选D。
B推理判断题。根据第一段“My greatest weakness is that I’m too much of a perfectionist.(我最大的缺点是过于追求完美)”以及最后一段“It was during my college years that I started to question the value of this perfectionism.(在大学期间，我开始质疑这种完美主义的价值)”结合文章主要讲述了作者从小到大追求完美，到大学时期因遇到一些人而改变对完美主义态度的成长故事。可知，这篇文章可能取自杂志的“成长故事”专栏。故选B。
【C篇解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学生阅读量较少这一现象及其对学生的影响。
28．B 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“The student said that at her public high school, she was only assigned passages, but not entire books. “My jaw dropped,” Dames told me. This helped explain the change: It’s not that they don’t want to read. It’s that they don’t know how.(该学生说，在她的公立高中，她只分配了一些段落，而不是整本书。 “我的下巴都惊掉了，”达姆斯告诉我。这有助于解释这一变化：并不是他们不想读书。那是他们不知道如何读)”可知，学生们在高中时老师只分配一些段落而不是整本书让他们去读。由此猜测，学生们对一个学期读完多本书的想法感到困惑。划线单词意为“困惑的”，故选B。
29．D推理判断题。根据第二段“Failing to complete a 14-line poem without giving in to distraction (干扰) suggests one familiar explanation for the decrease in reading ability: smartphones. Teenagers are constantly drawn by their devices. Reading books, even for pleasure, can’t compete with TikTok. In 1976, about 40 percent of high-school seniors said they had read at least six books for fun in the previous year, compared with 11.5 percent who hadn’t read any. By 2022, those percentages had flipped.(无法在不受到干扰的情况下完成一首 14 行诗，这表明阅读能力下降有一个常见的解释：智能手机。青少年总是被他们的设备所吸引。读书，即使是为了消遣，也无法与 TikTok 竞争。 1976 年，大约 40% 的高中生表示，他们在前一年至少读过六本书作为娱乐，相比之下，只有 11.5% 的人没有读过任何书。到 2022 年，这些百分比发生了逆转)”可推知，作者在第 2 段列出数字是为了证明学生读书量的下降。故选D。
30．C细节理解题。根据第四段“Faced with this situation, many college professors feel they have no choice but to assign less reading and lower their expectations. This means students will miss out on the mental development that comes from reading entire books. Reading enlarges your sympathies. Deep reading — sustained focus on a text — encourages a number of valuable mental habits, including critical thinking and self-reflection, in ways that skimming or reading in short passages does not.(面对这种情况，许多大学教授感到别无选择，只能减少布置的阅读量，降低期望值。这意味着学生将错过阅读整本书所带来的智力发展。阅读可以增强你的同情心。深度阅读——持续专注于文本——可以培养一些有价值的心理习惯，包括批判性思维和自我反思，而略读或短文阅读则无法做到这一点)”可知，教授分配的阅读量减少，学生将错过阅读整本书所带来的智力发展，以及错失培养一些有价值的心理习惯的机会。由此可知，教授分配的阅读量减少的结果是学生的认知成长机会丧失。故选C。
31．A 观点态度题。根据最后一段“I can imagine worse preparations for the trials, and thrills, of Literature Humanities. But we’ve never forgotten the originals. To understand the human condition, and to appreciate humankind’s greatest achievements, you still need to read The Iliad — all of it.(我可以想象为文学人文学科的考验和刺激做好更糟糕的准备。但我们从未忘记最初的作品。要了解人类的处境，要欣赏人类最伟大的成就，你仍然需要阅读《伊利亚特》——全 部)”可推知，作者对于阅读原著的态度是支持的，故选A。
【D篇解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了达尔豪西大学的研究人员利用人工智能解码鸡的语言，这一突破不仅是一项科学成就，更是朝着更人道、更有同理心地对待农场动物迈出的一步。
B. 细节理解题。根据第一段“Chickens are quite the communicators — their clucks, squawks and purrs are not just random sounds but a complex language system.(鸡是非常善于交流的动物——它们的咯咯声、尖叫声和咕噜声不仅仅是随机的声音，而是一个复杂的语言系统。)”可知，鸡是非常善于交流的。故选B。
33．B. 推理判断题。根据第二段“Understanding these sounds can transform our approach to poultry (家禽) farming, enhancing chicken welfare and quality of life.(理解这些声音能够改变我们的家禽饲养方式，从而提升鸡的福利和生活质量。)”和第三段“This breakthrough in animal communication is not just a scientific achievement; it’s a step towards more humane and empathetic treatment of farm animals.(这一在动物交流方面的突破不仅仅是一项科学成就；它是朝着更人道、更有同理心地对待农场动物迈出的一步。)”和最后一段“it has real-world implications. We’re not only unlocking the secrets of avian (鸟类的) communication but also setting new standards for animal welfare”可推知，这项研究帮助了解鸡的情感状态，从而对它们的照料和生活环境做出更合理的决策，对动物护理有很大的前景。故选B
34. C. 细节理解题。根据第四段“One of the most exciting aspects of this research is understanding the emotional content behind these sounds.(这项研究最令人兴奋的方面之一是理解这些声音背后的情感内容。)”可知，这项研究的亮点是理解鸡的情感。故选C。
35．D. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第三段提到“Our research at Dalhousie University applies artificial intelligence (AI) to decode the language of chickens. It’s a project that is set to revolutionize our understanding of these feathered creatures and their communication methods, offering a window into their world that was previously closed to us.(我们在达尔豪西大学的研究利用人工智能解码鸡的语言。这个项目将彻底改变我们对这些有羽毛的生物及其交流方式的理解，为我们打开了一扇通往它们世界的窗户，而这扇窗户以前对我们来说是关闭的。)”可知，本文主要讲的是达尔豪西大学的研究人员利用人工智能解码鸡的语言。故选D。
【七选五解析】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者从事广告行业8年了，加班熬夜做了无数项目，但他一直没有时间做自己真正想做的个人项目。有一天他受到一个演讲的启发，开始自己的项目“每天一秒钟”来记录每一天的生活。
36．F根据上文的“I’ve been in advertising for eight years and used to work a lot of late nights and weekends for numerous projects.(我在广告业干了8年，曾经为了很多项目工作到深夜和周末)”和下文的“I need to take time to start my own creative ideas.(我需要时间来开始我自己的创意)”可知，作者在工作中加班熬夜做了无数项目，看到一个演讲后决定开始做属于自己的项目，故空处内容应与没有做过个人想做的项目有关。F项“But I never had time for one I wanted to work on on my own.(但我从来没有时间做一个我想自己做的项目)”与上文构成转折，选项中的one表示“one project”，因此F选项承上启下，符合语境。故选F。
37．A上文“One day I watched a talk called “The power of time off”. It’s about how every seven years, the speaker takes a year off from work so he can do his own creative projects.(有一天，我看了一个名为“休息时间的力量”的演讲。这是关于每七年，演讲者如何从工作中请假一年，这样他就可以做自己的创意项目)”提到作者看到一个演讲，介绍了演讲者每过七年，就拿出一年时间来做自己的富有创造力的项目，下文“I decided I had to do that. I need to take time to start my own creative ideas.(我决定我必须这么做。我需要时间来开始我自己的创意)”讲到作者决定也要这么做，开始自己的富有创造力的想法，说明这个演讲启发了作者，A项“It instantly inspired me.(它立刻启发了我)”中的It指代前面的那个演讲，说明了那个演讲启发了作者，因此承上启下，符合语境。故选A。
38．B上文“Basically I record one second of every day for the rest of my life, combining these moments into one single continuous video until I can’t record them anymore.(基本上，在我的余生中，我每天都会录下一秒钟，把这些时刻组合成一个连续的视频，直到我再也录不下来。)”提到作者每天录一秒钟的视频，将这些一秒钟的视频拼接成一段连续的视频，直到他没有能力再录制为止，下文“There’re many things I have no recollection of unless someone brings them up(有很多事我都不记得了，除非有人提起)”讲到有很多作者之前做过的事情，他都想不起来了，故空处内容应仍与作者录制视频有关，且涉及记住过去的事。B项“The purpose is to remember what I’ve done.(目的是帮助我记住做过的事)”说明了这个项目帮助作者记住做过的事情，因此承上启下，符合语境。故选B。
39．E下文“On a good day, I’ll have maybe four seconds I want to choose. I’ll just have to narrow them down to one, but even narrow them down to that one allows me to remember the other three anyway.(在美好的一天，我大概有四秒钟的时间可以选择。我只需要把它们缩小到一个，但即使缩小到一个也能让我记住其他三个)”讲到在美好的一天里，作者想要多录制三秒钟，他只是把它们压缩到一秒钟，但是即使压缩到了只有一秒钟，也足以让他记住其他三秒钟，说明作者有时只能选择一秒钟，E项“It’s difficult, sometimes, to pick that one second.(有时候只能选择一秒钟很难)”是对下文内容的总结，说明只能选择一秒很难，因此引起下文，符合语境。故选E。
40．G空前说“I don’t use any filters (滤镜), just trying to catch the moment as much as possible as it is. I started a rule of the first person view. Early on, I thought I should have a couple of videos where people would see me, but I realized that wasn’t the way to go.(我没有使用任何滤镜，只是尽可能地捕捉那一刻。我开始了第一人称视角的规则。早些时候，我想我应该有几个视频，让人们看到我，但我意识到这不是我要走的路)”，说明这不是作者想要的，因此空格处应该说作者真正想要的是什么，G项“The essence of my project should be recording the thing as I actually see it.(我的项目的本质应该是记录我实际看到的东西)”说明了作者的项目的本质，因此承接上文，符合语境。故选G。

【语法题空解析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了中国智慧养老食堂的创新服务模式及其社会价值。
56. 考查谓语。“as”引导时间状语从句，根据主句“so has the canteen’s technology”（食堂的技术也一样（发展了） ），这里使用了现在完成时的倒装结构，从句要保持时态一致，强调“老年人饮食需求已经发生演变”这个对现在产生影响的动作，所以填“have evolved” ，主语“the dietary needs of the seniors”是复数，助动词用“have” 。
57. 考查冠词。“the instant”是固定短语，相当于连词，引导时间状语从句，意为“一……就……” ，所以填定冠词“The” ，注意句首首字母大写 。
58. 考查非谓语。“have their vital signs monitored and data _ (feed) into...” 是“have + 宾语 + 宾补”结构，“data”和“feed（输入；传送）”之间是被动关系，即数据被输入到食堂系统，所以用过去分词“fed”作宾补 。
59. 考查从句。此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词是“the canteen’s system”（食堂系统），指物，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词“which”引导，“that”不能引导非限制性定语从句 。
60. 考查介词。“be allergic to...”是固定搭配，意为“对……过敏” ，所以填介词“to” 。
61. 考查名词。“facial _ (recognize)”中，形容词“facial（面部的）”修饰名词，“recognize”的名词形式是“recognition（识别；认出）” ，所以填“recognition” ，表示“面部识别” 。
62. 考查副词。“is _ (strict) used”中，修饰动词“used”要用副词，“strict”的副词形式是“strictly（严格地）” ，表示数据被严格用于非商业目的 。
63. 考查代词。“care for _ (they) parents”中，修饰名词“parents”要用形容词性物主代词，“they”的形容词性物主代词是“their（他们的）” ，指年轻家庭成员照顾他们的父母 。
64. 考查非谓语。“both of them _ (approach) 80”是独立主格结构，“them”和“approach（接近；临近）”之间是主动关系，即他们（年龄）接近80岁，所以用现在分词“approaching” 。
65. 考查形容词。“hot, _ (afford) meals”中，修饰名词“meals”要用形容词，“afford”的形容词形式“affordable（负担得起的；价格合理的）” ，表示价格合理的热餐 。
【读后续写文本分析】
本文以故事发展的顺序为线索展开，讲述了作者和妈妈吵了一架，然后冲出了房子,也没有给家里打电话。作者走过一家面馆，突然觉得很饿，想要一碗面条，但是没有钱，面馆老板免费请作者吃了一碗面。作者感悟到一个陌生人一碗面条都能让他心怀感激，从小妈妈就把他养大，但却从来没有这样的感觉，作者对此进行反思。
1. 段落续写：
由续写段落的首句“Just at that moment, many memories came back into my mind．(就在那一刻，许多回忆涌上了我的脑海。)”及前文“Why did I not think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, and my mother has raised me since I was little and I have never felt so, not even a little.( 我以前怎么从来没有感受到呢 一个陌生人给我的一碗面条让我心怀感激，从小妈妈就把我养大，我从来没有这样的感觉，一点也没有。)”可知，本段续写内容主要写作者经过反思，意识到母亲对自己的好，然后回家以及回家后母亲对他的宽容态度。
续写线索：反思——回忆——生活细节——回家——款待——感动、羞愧

(Text 10)
M: Hello, everyone. So in this talk I’d like to discuss Arne Jacobsen. He was born in Denmark in 1902. When he was a child, he loved to paint, but his father thought being an artist wouldn’t give him a good future. So Jacobsen became a designer of many things. For example, here is the “egg chair”, named for its egg-like shape.
Nowadays, we still see Jacobsen’s designs around us. When you look at the chair design, we can see his chair looks like a simple, neat design. So maybe he liked simple and neat things. Actually, that’s right. He did. For example, he painted his room white because he didn’t like all the flowers on the wallpaper he had. And as an adult, he worked hard to make his designs perfect. But even though he worked hard, Jacobsen liked to joke and do funny things. For instance, he once wore a melon for a hat when someone dared him to. He also liked working on his own projects in his free time and found painting to be relaxing. These days, Jacobsen is famous for his modern, simple designs. His work showed that he thought about the purpose that his designs would serve for people.
