Before arriving in China, I had read various books relating to China, and my fascination were increasing.
Therefore, when I arrived, I couldn’t have been more excited to be living in this huge historically and culturally rich
country. The food, the landmarks, the big cities and everyday life — I couldn’t wait to explore.
Yet despite my passion, learning Chinese hadn’t even entered my mind. This wasn’t laziness, but rather fear at the thought
of trying to learn what is regarded as the most difficult language in the world. Besides this, I was living in Shanghai, an
international city, with many people speaking English as a second language — I decided English would be enough.
However, after a year in China I began to observe that while many foreigners did not speak Chinese, there were plenty
who did. Perhaps it was achievable after all In addition, I felt uncomfortable with how many Chinese people could speak
English and yet I couldn’t even speak the most basic Chinese. With these factors in mind and a thirst for a new challenge, I
decided to begin my language journey and my only regret is that I didn’t start earlier.
Learning to speak Chinese isn’t as insurmountable as I once thought. When I speak to native Chinese speakers in Chinese,
they almost always understand me, I have also not found it too difficult to remember characters and I am now even able to write
over 400 characters. The thing I find most challenging is listening since native speakers talk at such a speed. I can’t always
understand what’s been said.
My biggest takeaway from learning Chinese is that it’s not only achievable but can also be enjoyable. Learning Chinese
not only helped me in day-to-day life, but deepened my cultural understanding of such a fascinating country. So, to all my
non-Chinese friends I say this, take up the challenge and take the leap of faith.
4. Why didn’t the author learn Chinese when he arrived in China in 2017
A. He showed no passion for China. B. He was unwilling to make the effort.
C. He avoided learning a second language. D. He avoided doing something difficult.
5. What caused the author to learn Chinese
A. His regret about starting learning late. B. Support from many friends around him.
C. Eagerness to take up the challenge. D. A thirst to prove his gift for language.
6. What does the underlined word “insurmountable” in the 5th paragraph mean
A. Valueless. B. Difficult. C. Unnecessary. D. Unacceptable.
7. What can we learn from the author’s experience
A. Love breaks down difficulties. B. Hard work pays off.
C. Hard work is the key to success. D. Bravery opens up a new world.

Imagine being able to use energy from the sun all the time, even when it’s night. That’s the idea that scientists at Caltech
(California Institute of Technology) are exploring. They’re working on collecting sunlight in space and sending its energy to
Earth.
Caltech’s scientists have created a special tool for this project. They call it MAPLE. MAPLE and two other devices are
part of a project that was sent into space in January, 2023. MAPLE’s job is to test the idea of sending energy wirelessly from
space to Earth. We’re used to using wires to move electrical energy from one place to another. But sending energy without
wires is a lot tougher.
The method used by Caltech’s scientists depends on the way waves act when they meet. Imagine two waves coming
together as they travel in the same direction. If the tops of the waves line up, they combine to make a bigger wave. But if the
top of one wave lines up with the low point of the other, the waves cancel each other out. The Caltech team has found a way to
control the timing of lots of microwaves so that they can combine their power, and focus the energy in one direction. It’s a little
like using a magnifying (放大的) glass to focus sunlight into a small, hot point of light.
To prove that the system could work, MAPLE sent energy to two devices just 30 centimeters away in space. This energy
was then turned into electricity, which made two small lights light up. Next, MAPLE sent energy all the way down to a lab at
Caltech. The scientists were able to detect the energy, proving that it’s possible to send solar energy to Earth from space.
Dr. Hajimiri, one of the project’s leaders, thinks that one day, the system could be extremely useful. He believes that in the
future, we’ll be able to send energy to remote regions and areas destroyed by war or natural disaster.
8. What is the challenge in Caltech’s project with MAPLE
A. Wireless energy delivery. B. Sunlight collection in space.
C. Sending devices into space. D. Using wires to move electricity.
9. How does the Caltech team focus solar power
A. By using a magnifying glass. B. By managing the timing of microwaves.
C. By changing the direction of microwaves. D. By lining up waves in opposite directions.
10. What potential benefit could the system bring in future according to Dr. Hajimiri
A. Warning people of natural disasters. B. Turning solar energy into electricity.
C. Delivering energy to places in need. D. Ridding the world of energy shortage.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Use of Solar Energy in Space Exploration.
B. The Challenges of Generating Energy Without Wires.
C. The Development of a New Tool for Collecting Electricity
D. The Possibility of Sending Energy Wirelessly from Space to Earth.
D
On the streets of Manhattan and Washington, D.C., in neighborhoods in Seoul and parks in Paris, ginkgo (银杏) trees are
losing their leaves in response to the first gust of freezing winter air. This leaf drop, gradual at first, and then sudden, carpets
streets with golden, fan-shaped leaves. Scientists are documenting evidence of leaf drop happening later and later, a possible
result of warmer climate around the world.
Thanks to fossils found in North Dakota, scientists found a ginkgo has genetically similar ancestors dating back 170
million years to the Jurassic Period. “It almost went extinct. Then humans rescued it and spread it around the world. It’s such a
great evolutionary (进化) and cultural story,” says Peter Crane, a ginkgo expert.
One theory for the decline of the ginkgo species began 130 million years ago, when flowering plants began spreading.
They grew faster and attracted more pollinators (传粉者) than ginkgos. “It’s possible that ginkgos were elbowed out of the
way,” says Crane. Already competing to survive, ginkgos began to disappear during a time of global cooling that began around
66 million years ago. By the time the last ice age ended 11,000 years ago, the remaining survivors were found in China.
Ginkgo trees are smelly. “My guess is that they were eaten by animals that liked smelly things. They then passed through
their body and grew.” Crane says. Those same seeds may have helped ginkgo find favor with humans 1,000 years ago. Once
cleaned of their outer layer, ginkgo seeds are safe to eat. It’s then, when the trees had long since disappeared elsewhere, that
people in China may have begun planting them and eating their seeds. Then gradually ginkgos spread across the world. Now it’
s seemingly naturally resistant to insects and high levels of air pollution.
Crane isn’t worried about its future, though. The popularity of the species will help it survive. “Though its status in the
wild may be difficult to access, it’s a plant that’s unlikely to ever go extinct,” he says.
12. What may have caused the further delay of ginkgo’s leaf drop
A. The law of nature. B. The protection of the authority.
C The colder weather in winter. D. The global warming phenomenon.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A. The reasons why ginkgos almost died out. B. The advantages of ginkgos over other plants.
C. The theories of experts for multiplying ginkgos. D. The competition between various flowering plants.
14. What might have contributed to ginkgos’ survival
A. The careful planting. B. Their eatable seeds.
C. Their unpleasant smell. D. The serious air pollution.
15. How does Crane feel about ginkgos’ future
A. Concerned. B. Negative. C. Uncertain. D. Optimistic.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Supporting Others
We’re always being told that the secret to happiness lies in helping others. Indeed, it’s natural to want to support those we
care about, especially if we are in a position to do so.___16___
When we offer support, it may not always be wanted. ___17___ In this case, offering support in the manner of “... if l were
you, I would ...” can feel like a scolding rather than support. If our support feels conditional, it can feel burdensome.
___18___ When someone is trying to manage illness or a house move, just saying “What would help you today ” can be
amazingly supportive. Or, suggest what you can do for them: picking up some shopping, taking the dog for a walk. Even if it’s
not needed, just knowing you’ ve been thought of can be supportive in itself.
Try to be mindful of offering support that is disabling, rather than enabling. My son, when aged five, wanted to make a cup
of tea. I could see how inspiring it was for him to be able to do this. So I filled the kettle and took him through the safety
measures. It felt like a huge risk but it worked. His pleasure was immeasurable. The same principle applies when we offer
support that increases someone else’s capacity. ___19___
Sometimes the only support that’s needed is to listen without judgement. ___20___ This reassures them that someone
cares enough to listen while they ground themselves. When times are tough, remember to keep things stable. Waiting until the
storm has passed is all it takes.
Support often works best when it’s a two-way process. It is good to know how to accept help from others as well as offer
support to them.
A. Here are the pros and cons of supporting others.
B. Just be there, while someone lets out their feelings.
C. Ask what support is needed and provide a practical one.
D. This can often be a bigger gift than just doing it for them.
E. But we can do more by thinking about the support we offer.
F. Because being judgmental can only make someone annoyed.
G. Sometimes people are trying to manage life in their own way.

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。
Raju’s family was the smallest family on the coastal line of Kanyakumari. Raju was 10 years old. He was tall, dark and
handsome and had a lot of dreams. He had always dreamed of living in a city. He was always his dad’s charm, as he was not
quite happy to spend time with his mom. All he could remember about his mom was her scars, red and white scars on her face,
neck and hands. He always felt unpleasant to see his mom’s face. But what he did not know was that his mom scratched her
beauty to save him from a fire when he was one year old. Not wanting to burden him with it, Raju’s parents kept it a secret.
His mom Kamala used to drop him to school and pick him up every day. He felt awkward to see his mom with that scarred
face standing in front of the school gate. As he was laughing and chatting with his fellow schoolmates, all of them became
silent and started staring at the gate. So Raju turned towards the gate with a lot of curiosity. He froze when seeing his mom’s
face covered with a piece of cloth. Raju felt ashamed and rushed out of the school with lots of anger.
With days passing by, Raju started to dislike his mom more. He did not like to get picked up or dropped by his mom. He
felt that she was ugly and so abnormal. As he grew old, he stopped going out with her to the market or anywhere outside.
Kamala tried her best to make her son happy, got him everything that he wanted and gave him his space. She understood what
her son was going through and felt pity for herself and sad for her son, as she was helpless.
When Raju turned 15, he was sent to a city high school 67 kilometers away from his coastal village. The very thought of
not being with his ugly mother made him very happy.
Three years later, then came Raju’s graduation ceremony. His parents didn’t want to be absent from such an important
occasion, so they managed to be there without informing Raju.
Raju was shocked when seeing his parents arrive at the ceremony hall.
Hesitating for a moment, Raju’s father told him everything that happened many years ago.

第二节 参考范文：
Raju was shocked when seeing his parents arrive at the ceremony hall. By no means had he thought that his ugly mother
would emerge on such an important occasion. At that moment, he was totally engulfed by anger—the flame of annoyance was
burning inside. Hastily approaching his parents, he urged them to leave the ceremony hall. To her great disappointment, the
words cast a cloud of gloom on mother’s scarred face. Turning around in grief, she stepped out of the hall silently, with tears
welling up in her eyes. Staring at his son, father realized that he felt obliged to tell him the truth.
Hesitating for a moment, Raju’s father told him everything that happened many years ago. Aware of what had happened
to his mother, he froze there, his mind going blank. It seemed that his heart was torn by guilt as well as regret. Seeing his
mother’s figure fading away, he caught up with her to extend his genuine apology. No sooner had his mother heard this than
she burst into tears. Embracing his mother tightly, Raju tenderly stroked her on the back, tears blurring his vision. It is the
apology that cured mother of her inner scar and let her know she was the most beautiful mother in his son’s eyes.
