Lynn Jenner quickly packed up and drve t higher grund as Hurricane Hne apprached in 2024. Hwever, he wasn’t relcating his family; he was shifting snails.
Jenner wrks with sme f the rarest endangered species n the planet — Hawaii’s native tree snails. Once abundant like Christmas rnaments n trees, these clrful, jewel-like snails are nw mstly extinct with mre than half f the 750 species vanishing within the span f a human lifetime. Jenner and his team with Hawaii’s Department f Land and Natural Resurces face the mnumental task f saving what’s left.
T beat extinctin, 40 species f snails, each abut the size f a dime, are being cared fr by humans in an unremarkable trailer near Hnlulu. “Mst peple think f pandas and tigers when they think f endangered species ging extinct, but imagine having 40 different species that are all as rare as pandas.” Jenner says.
This winter, ne species f snail will reach a significant milestne. It will be released in a special enclsure in the muntains f Oahu, which has been painstakingly prepared t give the snails the best chance f survival in their natural habitat.
Hwever, the utlk fr Hawaii’s snails remain uncertain. Arund the glbe, plants and animals are being brught int enclsure as a last-ditch effrt against extinctin. But with climate change and the spread f invasive species, many have n clear path back t the wild in the near term. This culd mean they will remain under human care. In light f the bidiversity crisis, many wildlife bilgists believe there’s n ther ptin. “These are irreplaceable bilgical treasures,” Jenner says. “It is nw r never. What we manage t preserve n Earth will be what the next generatin can reintrduce.”

If humans attempt t establish cmmunities n the mn r ther planets, what will they eat? A new experiment has begun t determine if meat cells can grw in space.
Even n Earth, grwing meat frm cells is challenging. Cw cells(thugh any animal’s meat culd be used) are fed essential nutrients like amin acids and carbhydrates. These cells multiply until muscle tissue frms, eventually creating cnsumable meat thrugh a prcess called “cultivatin(培养)”. This methd invlves grwing meat in tanks that resemble brewery setups mre than traditinal farms, bypassing the life-cycle f animals raised fr meat— birth, life and kill. “Animal cells grw slwly,” explains David Humbird, a chemical engineer. “If bacteria were t get int the cultivatin, it wuld multiply mre rapidly than the animal cells, effectively taking ver and halting animal cell prductin. Yu end up with a culture f bacteria instead, which is useless and must be discarded.” he adds.
Humbird further clarifies that cells cultivated n cnsumable materials primarily cnsist f sugar, amin acids and water. Cnsequently, the calric value f these lab-grwn cells will always be lwer than the input materials. At the best case ne culd prbably recver 25% f the calries fr cnsumptin. This raises the questin: “why transprt all thse calries int space just t waste 75% f them?”
Karen Nyberg, a frmer astrnaut, emphasizes the crucial rle f fd in space missins. “Fd like pwdered milk and that srt f thing cmes as a regular surce fr astrnauts, but space-grwn meat is a nvelty we lack. Any advancement in this area significantly bsts ur mrale and eases ur pressure.” Fr extended missins away frm Earth, access t fresh prduce becmes essential fr maintaining crew health.
Indeed, if humanity intends t establish a presence n Mars, hw t prvide astrnauts with nutrient-rich fd that desn’t spil— and tastes gd— is a crucial yet cmplex puzzle that must be addressed.
8. What is a key challenge in cell-based meat prductin?
A. High cst f nutrients.B. Difficulty in keeping tanks.
C. Lack f suitable cells.D. Slw cell grwth rate.
9. What des David Humbird think f grwing meat in space?
A. It is resurce inefficient.B. It is prmising.
C. It is cst-effective.D. It is unethical.
10. Why des Karen supprt grwing meat in space?
A. It reduces the cst f transprting fd frm Earth.
B. It prvides diverse fd chices fr astrnauts.
C. It facilitates lng-term medical develpment.
D. It tastes much better than pwdered milk.
11. What is the best title fr the passage?
A. Will Lab-grwn Meat Help Feed Astrnauts?
B. Will Astrnauts like Cell-Cultured Meat?
C. Fd Revlutin: Frm Tube t Table
D. The Rise f Biengineered Fd
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了在空间中培养肉类的可能性、挑战以及对宇航员的意义。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段的句子““Animal cells grw slwly,” explains David Humbird, a chemical engineer. “If bacteria were t get int the cultivatin, it wuld multiply mre rapidly than the animal cells, effectively taking ver and halting animal cell prductin. Yu end up with a culture f bacteria instead, which is useless and must be discarded.” he adds.(“动物细胞生长缓慢，”化学工程师大卫·汉伯德解释说。“如果细菌进入培养皿，它会比动物细胞繁殖得更快，有效地接管并停止动物细胞的生产。你最终得到的是细菌培养物，这是无用的，必须被丢弃。他补充道)”可知，细胞生长缓慢是细胞培养肉生产的一个关键挑战。故选 D 项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的句子“Humbird further clarifies that cells cultivated n cnsumable materials primarily cnsist f sugar, amin acids and water. Cnsequently, the calric value f these lab-grwn cells will always be lwer than the input materials. At the best case ne culd prbably recver 25% f the calries fr cnsumptin. This raises the questin: “why transprt all thse calries int space just t waste 75% f them?”(Humbird进一步阐明，在可消耗材料上培养的细胞主要由糖、氨基酸和水组成。因此，这些实验室培养的细胞的热值总是低于输入材料。在最好的情况下，可能可以恢复25%的卡路里消耗。这就提出了一个问题：“为什么把所有这些卡路里都送到太空，却浪费了其中的75%呢？”)”可知，David Humbird认为在太空中培养肉会浪费75%的卡路里，因此这是资源低效的。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第三段的句子“Fd like pwdered milk and that srt f thing cmes as a regular surce fr astrnauts, but space-grwn meat is a nvelty we lack. Any advancement in this area significantly bsts ur mrale and eases ur pressure.(像奶粉这样的食物是宇航员的常规食物来源，但太空种植的肉类是我们所缺乏的。这方面的任何进展都能极大地鼓舞我们的士气，减轻我们的压力。)” 可知，Karen支持在太空中培养肉，因为它能提供多样化的食物选择，从而提升宇航员的士气和减轻压力。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。 文章主要探讨了在空间中培养肉类的可能性、挑战以及对宇航员的意义。根据第一段的句子“If humans attempt t establish cmmunities n the mn r ther planets, what will they eat? A new experiment has begun t determine if meat cells can grw in space.(如果人类试图在月球或其他星球上建立社区，他们将吃什么？一项新的实验已经开始确定肉细胞是否可以在太空中生长。)” 和最后一段的句子“Indeed, if humanity intends t establish a presence n Mars, hw t prvide astrnauts with nutrient-rich fd that desn’t spil— and tastes gd— is a crucial yet cmplex puzzle that must be addressed.(事实上，如果人类打算在火星上定居，如何为宇航员提供营养丰富、不变质、味道鲜美的食物，是一个必须解决的关键而复杂的难题。)” 可知，文章的核心问题是实验室培养的肉类是否能帮助宇航员进食。所以，用A项“Will Lab-grwn Meat Help Feed Astrnauts?(实验室培育的肉类能养活宇航员吗？)”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选 A 项。
D
The next time yu’re feeling dwn r frustrated with the wrld, cnsider whether yu’ve really been dealt a pr hand. That’s ne key cnclusin frm a recent study n entitlement, a persnality characteristic marked by exaggerated (夸张的) sense f deservingness and superirity. Entitlement may lead t nging disappintment, say researchers frm Case Western Reserve University.
The authrs reached these cnclusins after analyzing mre than 170 academic papers. They fund that individuals with high levels f entitlement cnsistently fall victim t a three-part cycle: First, they dn’t always get what they think they deserve, leaving them mre likely t have unmet expectatins. Thse unfulfilled expectatins are then perceived as injustices, leading t emtins like anger and sadness. Finally, t justify thse emtins, entitled peple keep telling themselves they are special. While this temprarily bsts their md, it ultimately starts the cycle anew.
At extreme levels, entitled peple repeatedly expse themselves t the risk f feeling frustrated and disappinted with life. They als ften struggle with pr relatinships, interpersnal cnflicts, and depressin, says c-authr Julie Exline, PhD, a prfessr f psychlgical sciences at Case Western Reserve. “Entitlement is largely abut cmpetitin— being better r mre deserving than thers,” she tld Health.cm. “It really sets individuals at dds with sciety, leading t islatin.”
“It’s challenging fr true narcissists (自恋者) t recgnize their wn behavir, r change their mindset.” Exline admits. Hwever, she believes that fr many well-intentined peple, feelings f entitlement can be managed. “Cnditining yurself t think abut thers and what they deserve — and als being willing t acknwledge yur wn faults and weaknesses — can help fster better cnnectins with thers.” she suggests.
We shuld be als aware that nt all feelings f entitlement are negative r unhealthy: We shuldn’t just lwer ur standards r stp expecting what we truly deserve just t be happier. But if yu d ntice that yu’ve develped an verblwn sense f self that is causing annyance r cnflict with thers, it’s definitely wrth trying t address.
12. What des the underlined part “yu’ve really been dealt a pr hand” in Paragraph1 mean?
A. Yu’re bad at playing cards.
B. Yu’re unable t handle emtins.
C. Yu indeed face unfrtunate circumstances.
D. Yu shuld cmplain mre abut yur situatin.
13. Which statement reflects an entitled persn’s mindset?
A. “Deadlines dn’t apply t me — I’m t imprtant.”
B. “I’m grateful and will cntribute t my team.”
C. “I always listen t thers’ pinins.”
D. “I’m willing t wrk my way up.”
14. Hw des the entitlement cycle affect emtins?
A. It increases aggressin.B. It cnstantly bsts md.
C. It causes frequent frustratin.D. It enhances emtinal stability.
15. What des Exline suggest entitled peple d?
A. Seek apprval fr their superirity.B. Blame their faults n external factrs.
C. Admit their mistakes and value thers.D. Take full respnsibility fr all utcmes.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. C
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是关于特权感如何导致持续失望及其对情绪和人际关系的影响，并提供应对建议。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线句子前的“The next time yu’re feeling dwn r frustrated with the wrld(下次当你感到沮丧或对世界感到失望时)”可知，自己感到沮丧或者对世界感到失望的时刻，也就人们可能遭遇了不幸，结合下文的“That’s ne key cnclusin frm a recent study n entitlement, a persnality characteristic marked by exaggerated (夸张的) sense f deservingness and superirity.(这是最近一项关于“特权感”的研究得出的一个关键结论。特权感是一种人格特征，表现为夸大的应得感和优越感。)”可知，此处描述的是特权感的一种人格特征，表现为夸大的应得感和优越感，由此可知，此处应是建议思考是否真的遭遇了不幸，而不是一味地认为自己受到了不公。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“First, they dn’t always get what they think they deserve, leaving them mre likely t have unmet expectatins. Thse unfulfilled expectatins are then perceived as injustices, leading t emtins like anger and sadness. Finally, t justify thse emtins, entitled peple keep telling themselves they are special. While this temprarily bsts their md, it ultimately starts the cycle anew.(首先，他们并不总是能得到自己认为应得的东西，这使得他们的期望更可能无法实现。这些未满足的期望随后被视为不公，导致愤怒和悲伤等情绪。最后，为了证明这些情绪的合理性，有特权感的人不断告诉自己他们是特别的。虽然这暂时提升了他们的情绪，但最终又重新开启了这一循环。)”可知，具有特权感的人通常认为自己比别人更特殊、更有资格，甚至可能无视规则或他人的需求，由此可知，具有特权感的人会认为自己很重要。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“First, they dn’t always get what they think they deserve, leaving them mre likely t have unmet expectatins. Thse unfulfilled expectatins are then perceived as injustices, leading t emtins like anger and sadness. Finally, t justify thse emtins, entitled peple keep telling themselves they are special. While this temprarily bsts their md, it ultimately starts the cycle anew.(首先，他们并不总是能得到自己认为应得的东西，这使得他们的期望更可能无法实现。这些未满足的期望随后被视为不公，导致愤怒和悲伤等情绪。最后，为了证明这些情绪的合理性，有特权感的人不断告诉自己他们是特别的。虽然这暂时提升了他们的情绪，但最终又重新开启了这一循环。)”可知，当特权感的人的期望没有得到满足时，他们将这种未达预期视为个人不公，从而产生愤怒和悲伤的情绪，为了证明这些情绪，他们暂时强化自己的特殊感，但这只会重新开始循环，由此可知，整个过程会让有特权感的人频繁感到沮丧和失望。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的““Cnditining yurself t think abut thers and what they deserve — and als being willing t acknwledge yur wn faults and weaknesses — can help fster better cnnectins with thers.” she suggests.(她建议：“训练自己去思考他人以及他们应得的东西——同时愿意承认自己的错误和弱点——有助于与他人建立更好的联系。”)”可知，Exline建议特权者承认自己的错误并重视他人。故选C项。

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章讨论了“脑腐”这一现象，指出人们沉迷于低质量、无意义的网络内容，这种现象被称为“脑腐”。虽然看似无害，但实际上可能导致智力和精神状态的退化。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Yu culd say that this is harmless. But what is it adding t the wrld?(你可以说这是无害的。但它给世界带来了什么？)”以及下文“The term has been named Oxfrd’s Wrd f the Year 2024.(这个词被评为《牛津词典》2024年度词汇)”可知，本句回答上文的疑问，并且引出“brain rt（脑腐）”这一词组。故B选项“这种内容会导致‘脑腐’”符合语境，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Brain rt is when smene’s mental r intellectual state gets wrse, especially as a result f vercnsuming lw-quality, lw-value nline cntent, which is cnsidered trivial.(脑腐指的是某人的精神或智力状态恶化，尤其是由于过度消费低质量、低价值的网络内容，这些内容被认为是微不足道的)”以及下文“Initially gaining attractin n scial media platfrm, brain rt is nw seeing mre widespread use.(脑腐最初在社交媒体平台上引起了人们的注意，现在却得到了更广泛的应用)”可知，本句主要说明“脑腐”的来源，选项E中“meaningless and sulless cntent”与前文“lw-quality, lw-value nline cntent”完全呼应。故E选项“它起源于无意义的、没有灵魂的内容”符合语境，故选E。
【18题详解】
根据下文“As Oxfrd University Press ntes n its website, the first recrded use f brain rt is fund in Threau’s 1854 bk Walden.(牛津大学出版社在其网站上指出，第一次使用脑腐一词是在梭罗1854年的著作《瓦尔登湖》中)”可知，本句主要交代“脑腐”一词的起源，选项F通过“dates back t Threau”与下文“first recrded use in Walden”无缝衔接，故F选项“虽然看起来很现代，但“脑腐”一词可以追溯到亨利·大卫·梭罗”符合语境，故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Threau criticizes sciety’s tendency t devalue (使贬值) ideas.(梭罗批评社会贬低思想价值的倾向)”可知，本句主要说明梭罗对于脑腐的看法，C选项直接对应梭罗的观点。故C选项“他认为这是智力衰退的迹象”符合语境，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据上文“The line between ur digital and real lives has faded ver time — arguably fr the wrse.(随着时间的推移，我们的数字生活和现实生活之间的界限越来越模糊——可以说是越来越糟)”可知，上文前一句强调数字与现实生活的界限已逐渐模糊，本句承接上文，说明其带来的最终结果。故A选项“现在它几乎消失了”符合语境，故选A。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是理查三世遗骸的发现及其对历史认知的影响，揭示了其生前被误解的一面。
【36题详解】
考查代词。句意：骨骼中的DNA与现存的国王姐姐的后代的DNA相匹配，且骨骼上的战斗伤痕与当时的记载相符。此处为代词作宾语，结合句意，此处指代“DNA”，避免重复，在同类比较中使用代词that指代不可数名词或者可数名词单数特指。故填that。
【37题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：骨骼中的DNA与现存的国王姐姐的后代的DNA相匹配，且骨骼上的战斗伤痕与当时的记载相符。此处accunt为可数名词，意为“记载，描述”，根据语境需要用复数形式表示多份记载。故填accunts。
【38题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：这位被称作英国历史上最坏的人之一的国王的遗体将被重新安葬在当地教堂。此处为非谓语动词作定语，refer t与king之间是被动关系，因此使用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填referred。
【39题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意：这一发现令历史学家们兴奋不已，因为它为一位统治者提供了确凿的证据。这位统治者生前的事迹一直笼罩在诸多传闻的阴影之下，尽管官方记录中并无相关记载，但这些传闻却一直围绕着他自 1485 年在博斯沃思战役战死以来的冷酷无情之事不绝于耳。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语since his death可知，此处使用现在完成时，且life与shadw之间为被动关系，因此使用现在完成时的被动语态，且主语为第三人称单数。故填has been shadwed。
【40题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意：根据历史文件记载，理查三世的尸体在战后被剥光并流着血地放在一匹驮马背上运到莱斯特，随后被埋葬在一个无标记的坟墓中。此处描述过去发生的动作，可用一般过去时，transprt与主语Richard’s bdy之间为被动关系，且主语为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为was transprted；此处的也可以理解为transprt发生在另一个过去的动作being buried之前，所以此处也可以使用可用过去完成时。故填was transprted/had been transprted。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：随后，王位传给了都铎王朝的统治者，他们将理查德描绘成一个丑陋的恶人，为了追求权力而不择手段，甚至谋杀了自己的两个年幼侄子——即著名的“塔中王子”——以巩固权力。此处为固定搭配paint sb. as...，意为“把某人描绘成……”符合句意。故填as。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：随后，王位传给了都铎王朝的统治者，他们将理查德描绘成一个丑陋的恶人，为了追求权力而不择手段，甚至谋杀了自己的两个年幼侄子——即著名的“塔中王子”——以巩固权力。此处为名词作宾语，pursue的名词为pursuit，意为“追求”，in ne’s pursuit f...为固定搭配，意为“在某人追求……的过程中”符合句意。故填pursuit。
【43题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：随后，王位传给了都铎王朝的统治者，他们将理查德描绘成一个丑陋的恶人，为了追求权力而不择手段，甚至谋杀了自己的两个年幼侄子——即著名的“塔中王子”——以巩固权力。此处为非谓语动词作状语，结合句意，此处表示目的，需用动词不定式t secure作目的状语。故填t secure。
【44题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：他们打算关注理查三世在他短暂的两年统治期间所取得的成就。此处为连接词引导宾语从句，在从句中充当achieved的宾语，表示“所……的事物”，所以此处使用连接代词what。故填what。
【45题详解】
考查让步状语从句。句意：对他们而言，无论理查三世在过去显得多么残酷，这位国王的新形象将会浮现出来。此处为连词引导的状语从句，结合句意以及空后的形容词cruel可知，此处为hwever引导让步状语从句，表示“无论多么残酷”符合句意。故填hwever。

Once in the barn, she shined the flashlight's beam tward the ladder. Her heart punding, Callie climbed up t the haylft. She mved carefully between the hay bales, listening intently. Suddenly, she heard a faint mew cming frm a far crner. Excited but cautius, Callie inched her way twards the sund, mving hay bales aside ne by ne. As she neared the surce, the mewing grew luder and mre desperate. Finally, behind the last bale, she sptted a tiny black and white kitten, its eyes wide with fear.
Finally, Callie picked up the scared kitten frm the crner f the haylft. She cradled it gently in her arms, the little kitten shivering all ver. It snuggled against her, seemingly relieved t be fund. Callie carefully made her way dwn the ladder and rushed back t the huse. She wke her father and brther, prudly shwing them the kitten and explaining hw she had trusted her instincts. Her family was amazed and prud f her persistence. She decided t name the kitten“Lucky” and vwed t care fr it until they culd find its wner r, if necessary, give it a permanent hme n their farm.
