【原文】W: Hi everyne, my name’s Marin Frdham and I’m a climate scientist. I’m here tday t talk t yu abut the histry f weather frecasting. Recrds frm as far back as 600 BCE frm Babyln, in ancient Iraq, suggest that clud shapes were used t make frecasts. Different animal behavirs were used t predict shrt-term weather patterns in Japan and many ther natins.
Methds f weather frecasting remained unchanged fr the next 2,000 years r s, until technlgical breakthrughs led t greater accuracy. The first f these, in the mid-15th century, measured hw damp air was. The first thermmeter, which was used t measure temperature, was created in the late 16th century and imprved weather predictins. By the start f the 20th century, a Nrwegian scientist emplyed mathematical calculatins fr frecasts, starting in 1904. It was time-cnsuming, as cmputers hadn’t been invented yet. In the 1920s, electrical equipment fr recrding weather-related data had becme mre reliable. Airplanes f the time were still unable t fly high enugh t gather relevant infrmatin, s ballns perfrmed this rle instead, as they were able t travel up t 30 kilmeters abve the earth’s surface befre bursting. Since the first satellite t be sent int space specifically t help with frecasts was launched in 1960, this technlgy has been a cntinuus presence abve earth.

On a summer trip t Maharashtra, India, Aryaman Khandelwal saw a little by, n mre than ten years ld, carrying a bag f crn twice his size. “They had t wrk s hard t make d,” Khandelwal said, “Smething needed t change. ”
Then a senir at Parkland High Schl, Khandelwal went n t design Get2Greater ver the next cuple f years, an AI-driven app t imprve access t healthcare services. His effrts earned him the GlriaBarrn Prize, which is given t yung peple with significant scial initiatives.
The yung man was passinate abut imprving healthcare in Maharashtra, a place that lacked qualified dctrs and healthcare wrkers. Mrever, there were many quacks, wh might quit studying after a year f medicine schl and return hme as “healthcare prviders”.
Then Khandelwal was intrduced t the a MAHAN Trust, a healthcare rganizatin serving rural parts f Maharashtra. At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health wrkers t carry ut basic medical tasks, such as taking measurements and transprting data t hspitals fr review. Thrugh them, Khandelwal learned that nly 10 t 15 trained wrkers served a ppulatin f 200,000. While the methd shwed results, it was time-cnsuming and required significant imprvement t handle the large vlume f cases mre efficiently.
That’s where Get2Greater came in — it separates the unhealthy frm the healthy, s dctrs can fcus n mre pressing cases. The app can recrd basic health-related data pints, cmpile (汇编) them in rder f pririty and send them t dctrs nearby. Khandelwal sent a tablet cmputer equipped with a basic sftware prttype (软件原型) t the MAHAN Trust and established a line f cmmunicatin with healthcare wrkers there. “I asked them t prvide feedback n the app,” he said.
Khandelwal’s prpsal wn him funding and after numerus trials, he created a Wi-Fi cmpnent s the devices culd cnnect t the lcal hspitals. He has als been in talks with the UN t help take the device t ther parts f the wrld.
24. What des the underlined wrd “quacks” in paragraph 3 refer t ?
A. Students wh quit schl. B. Dctrs wh are unqualified.
C. Nurses wh wrk in hspitals.D. Prfessinals wh help in healthcare wrk.
25. What was the challenge faced by the MAHAN Trust?
A. The difficulty in transprting data accurately.
B. Village health wrkers’ unwillingness t be trained.
C. Insufficient healthcare prviders fr vast cmmunities.
D. Lack f medical equipment fr perfrming medical tasks.
26. Hw des the app Get2Greater functin?
A. By cutting healthcare csts fr patients.
B. By prcessing data fr dctrs’ attentin.
C. By autmatically recrding treatment prcess.
D. By identifying the symptms quickly and crrectly.
27. Which f the fllwing can best describe Khandelwal?
A. Innvative and cmmitted.B. Cnfident and mdest.
C. Humble and determined.D. Generus and ambitius.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. B 27. A
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Aryaman Khandelwal看到印度马哈拉施特拉邦医疗现状后，历时数年设计出Get2Greater应用程序以改善医疗服务的故事。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前文“a place that lacked qualified dctrs and healthcare wrkers(缺乏合格医生和保健工作者的地方)”和后文“wh might quit studying after a year f medicine schl and return hme as ‘healthcare prviders’.(他们可能在医学院学习一年后就辍学回家，然后以‘医疗服务提供者’自居)”可知，这个地方缺乏合格的医生，他们没有完成医学学习就开始提供医疗服务，显然是没有资质的。所以，划线词quacks指的是“没有资质的医生；江湖郎中”，与同义“Dctrs wh are unqualified.”。故选B项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“At the time, the MAHAN Trust was training village health wrkers t carry ut basic medical tasks, such as taking measurements and transprting data t hspitals fr review. Thrugh them, Khandelwal learned that nly 10 t 15 trained wrkers served a ppulatin f 200,000.(当时，MAHAN信托正在培训乡村卫生工作者执行基本医疗任务，例如测量和将数据传送到医院进行审查。通过他们，Khandelwal了解到只有10到15名训练有素的卫生工作者为20万人口服务)”可知，MAHAN信托面临的挑战是广大社区的医疗服务提供者不足。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“That’s where Get2Greater came in — it separates the unhealthy frm the healthy, s dctrs can fcus n mre pressing cases. The app can recrd basic health related data pints, cmpile (汇编) them in rder f pririty and send them t dctrs nearby.(这就是Get2Greater发挥作用的地方——它能将不健康的人与健康的人区分开来，这样医生就可以专注于更紧急的病例。该应用程序可以记录基本的健康相关数据点，按优先级汇编这些数据，并将其发送给附近的医生)”可知，Get2Greater应用程序通过处理数据让医生关注更紧急的病例来发挥作用。故选B项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Then a senir at Parkland High Schl, Khandelwal went n t design Get2Greater ver the next cuple f years, an AI driven app t imprve access t healthcare services.(当时还是帕克兰高中高年级学生的Khandelwal，在接下来的几年里继续设计了Get2Greater，这是一款由人工智能驱动的应用程序，旨在改善医疗服务的可及性)”以及Khandelwal后续不断改进应用程序等一系列努力可知，他有创新精神且有坚定的决心和投入。所以他是创新且有奉献精神的。故选A项。
C
Are athletes nearing the limits f what’s pssible? Are they struggling t break recrds? The hammer thrw (链球), fr example, hasn’t seen a new wrld recrd since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently utd themselves in ther sprts, such as the 400-metre sprint.
Althugh prfessinal athletes ften bast impressive muscles, simply increasing muscle mass des nt guarantee imprved athletic perfrmance. This is partly because muscles lse efficiency as they grw. Mre muscle mass prduces extra frce, but the benefits decrease as muscle mass cntinues t grw and muscles will eventually apprach a hard limit n what they can achieve.
An athlete’s dminant muscle fibre type als significantly impacts perfrmance. Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high cncentratin f fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in cntrast t marathn runners, wh have a high cncentratin f slw-twitch fibres. Fast-twitch fibres are richer in energy stres, prduce mre pwerful mvements and tire us ut mre quickly than the slw-twitch variety. This difference sets a speed limit n high-endurance sprts like lng-distance running.
Muscles set a ceiling n hw hard athletes can wrk, but perfrmance als depends n what athletes d with their muscles. In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fsbury used an innvative strategy fr the high jump that raised the bar. Instead f saring frward ver the ple, he turned his bdy mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him t leap ver the ple with less effrt. Five years later, Dwight Stnes perfected the “Fsbury Flp” and brke the high-jump wrld recrd using this methd.
Technlgical advancements in sprtswear als significantly bst perfrmance. Shes equipped with carbn-plated insles (碳板鞋垫) can give runners an advantage. This type f ftwear limits energy lss, meaning the runner has t put in less wrk t run faster. Wrld Athletics allws athletes t cmpete with these shes as lng as the sft base is n higher than abut 4 centimeters, s it’s pssible this sprtswear culd lead t new running recrds.
Ultimately, while muscle limitatins exist, innvative techniques and advancements in sprtswear cntinue t redefine athletic ptential, suggesting that recrds, even seemingly unbeatable nes, may yet be defeated.
28. Hw des the writer intrduce the tpic?
A. By raising questins n athletes’ cncerns.
B. By listing different sprts events directly.
C. By emphasizing the efficiency f muscle mass.
D. By analyzing the limits f athletic perfrmance.
29. What can be learned abut the muscle fibre types accrding t paragraph 3?
A. Fast-twitch fibres are ideal fr Marathn runners.
B. Sprinters pssess mre fast-twitch fibres than marathn runners.
C. Slw-twitch fibres are mre pwerful and tire us mre quickly.
D. The muscle fibre type nly has a small impact n perfrmance.
30. Why des the authr mentin the “Fsbury Flp”?
A. T praise Stnes’ breaking the wrld recrd.
B. T reveal limitatins in high-jump techniques.
C. T illustrate the significance f physical peak in athletes.
D. T prve the rle f creative techniques in athletic perfrmance.
31. What is the text mainly abut?
A. Only specific sprts can see new recrds.
B. Muscle mass guarantees athletic perfrmance.
C. Muscle limitatins make new recrds impssible.
D. Recrds may be brken with innvatin and technlgy.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. D
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了运动员在接近体能极限时，如何通过创新技术和运动装备的进步来继续打破世界纪录的可能性。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Are athletes nearing the limits f what’s pssible? Are they struggling t break recrds? The hammer thrw (链球), fr example, hasn’t seen a new wrld recrd since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently utd themselves in ther sprts, such as the 400-metre sprint.(运动员是否正在接近可能的极限？他们是否在努力打破纪录？例如，链球项目自1986年以来就没有出现过新的世界纪录。然而，在其他体育项目中，如400米短跑，运动员们却经常能够超越自我)”可知，作者通过提出通过提出运动员所关心的两个问题来引入话题。故选A项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high cncentratin f fast-twitch fibres (快肌纤维) in cntrast t marathn runners, wh have a high cncentratin f slw-twitch fibres.(短跑运动员拥有高浓度的快肌纤维，而马拉松运动员则拥有高浓度的慢肌纤维)”可知，短跑运动员比马拉松运动员拥有更多的快肌纤维。故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fsbury used an innvative strategy fr the high jump that raised the bar. Instead f saring frward ver the ple, he turned his bdy mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him t leap ver the ple with less effrt. Five years later, Dwight Stnes perfected the “Fsbury Flp” and brke the high-jump wrld recrd using this methd.(在1968年的奥运会上，Dick Fsbury采用了一种创新的跳高策略，这一策略提高了跳高的标杆。他不是像传统那样面向前方飞跃过杆，而是在空中转身。这种向后跳跃的方式使他能够以较小的努力跃过横杆。五年后，Dwight Stnes完善了“Fsbury Flp”，并使用这种方法打破了跳高世界纪录)”可知，Dick Fsbury创新了跳高运动的姿势。五年后Dwight Stnes利用“Fsbury Flp”打破了世界纪录。由此可推知，作者提到“Fsbury Flp”是为了证明创新性的技巧在帮助运动员的表现上起作用。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意。根据全文内容及最后一段“Ultimately, while muscle limitatins exist, innvative techniques and advancements in sprtswear cntinue t redefine athletic ptential, suggesting that recrds, even seemingly unbeatable nes, may yet be defeated.(最终，尽管肌肉存在局限性，但创新的技术和运动装备的进步不断重新定义运动员的潜力，这表明即使是看似无法打破的记录也有可能被刷新)”可知，文章的整体观点是，尽管存在肌肉的生理限制，但通过技巧创新和运动装备的科技进步，仍旧有可能打破现有的运动纪录。由此可推知，创新和科技的应用将有助于打破纪录。故选D项。

上文“Scrates, the renwned ancient Greek philspher, famusly stated, ‘The unexamined life is nt wrth living.’(著名的古希腊哲学家苏格拉底有句名言：‘未经审视的生活是不值得过的’)”引出了苏格拉底的这句名言。G选项“This pwerful declaratin serves as a call t dig deeper int ne’s wn thughts.(这句有力的宣言呼吁人们更深入地挖掘自己的思想)”对这句名言进行了进一步解读，说明其作用是引导人们深入思考自己的思想，与上文逻辑紧密。故选G项。
【37题详解】
上文“The teacher may nt explain what is ‘right’ r ‘wrng’.(老师可能不会解释什么是‘对’或‘错’)”表明老师不会直接给出对错的定义。F选项“Instead, he r she might ask ‘What des it mean t act mrally?’(相反，他或她可能会问 ‘道德行事意味着什么? ’)”与上文形成转折，说明老师会通过提问的方式引导学生思考，符合苏格拉底方法中通过提问引导他人思考的特点，上下文衔接自然。故选F项。
【38题详解】
下文“When yu ask yurself, fr instance, ‘Why d yu believe this?’ r ‘What evidence supprts yur thinking?’(例如，当你问自己‘你为什么相信这个?’或‘有什么证据支持你的想法?’)”具体说明了自我审视时的提问方式。E选项“The Scratic Methd is a pwerful tl fr self-examinatin.(苏格拉底方法是一种强大的自我审视工具)”起到了承上启下的作用，既承接上文对苏格拉底方法的介绍，又引出下文关于自我审视的具体内容。故选E项。

上文“Self-reflectin is like hitting the pause buttn n life.(自我反思就像按下生活的暂停键)”将自我反思比喻为暂停键。A选项“It gives yu a mment t step back.(它给你一个退后一步思考的时刻)”进一步解释了按下暂停键的意义，即让人有时间退后一步思考，与上文逻辑一致。故选A项。
【40题详解】
上文“Living an unexamined life is similar t casting n autmatic pilt, where ne simply accepts scial standards withut critically evaluating them. In this kind f life, yu’re swept alng by sciety’s expectatins.(过一种未经审视的生活就像在自动驾驶状态下滑行，人们只是简单地接受社会标准而不进行批判性评估。在这种生活中，你会被社会的期望所裹挟)”描述了未经审视的生活的状态。B选项“Yu are barely aware f yur wn desires.(你几乎意识不到自己的欲望)”进一步说明了在这种生活状态下的结果，即人们会忽略自己的欲望，上下文语意连贯。故选B项。

考查非谓语动词。句意：汉字不仅富含象征意义，而且用传统毛笔书写时，它们也非常美丽。此处考查when引导的时间状语从句的省略，当从句主语和主句主语一致，且从句谓语动词为be动词时，可省略从句中的主语和be动词。此处完整表达为“when they are penned with a brush in the traditinal way”，省略后为“when penned with a brush in the traditinal way”，其中pen为及物动词，意为“写”，和主语they构成被动关系，故需用过去分词形式penned。故填penned。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：追溯到远至商朝时期，当时它们被刻写在甲骨上，汉字强烈地见证了其悠久的历史。句子的谓语动词为witness，空处需用非谓语动词作状语，date back t意为“追溯至”，和其逻辑主语Chinese characters构成主动关系，故需用现在分词dating作状语，位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Dating。

【63题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：尽管发音符号不同，但以前和现在使用的汉字仍在其他语言如日语、韩语和越南语中使用，这表明它们一直在起作用。空处是句子的谓语动词，根据空后“previusly”可知，句子陈述过去发生的事情，时态为一般过去时，且主语Chinese characters与动词use为被动关系，故需用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为复数，be动词用were。故填were used。
【64题详解】
