22-year-old New Jersey resident Joe DiMeo had a rare face and hands transplant last August. In 2019, DiMeo fell asleep at the wheel after working a night shift as a product tester for a drug company. The car hit a pole flipped over, and burst into flames. Another driver who saw the accident pulled over to rescue DiMeo.
Afterward he underwent 20 surgeries and many skin grafts to treat his third-degree burns. Once it became clear that traditional surgeries couldn’t help him regain full vision or use of his hands, DiMeo’s medical team began preparing for the risky transplant. Almost immediately, the team encountered challenges including finding a donor. However, about two years later the team finally identified a donor in Delaware and completed the 23-hour procedure a few days later.
US surgeons have completed at least 18 face transplants and 35 hand transplants, according to the United Network for Organ Sharing(UNOS), which oversees the nation’s transplant system. But the face and double hand transplant is extremely rare and had only been tried twice before. The first attempt was in 2009 on a patient in Paris who died about a month later from complications. Two years later, Boston doctors tried it again on a woman, but had to remove the transplanted hands days later.
As with any transplant, the danger of rejection is the highest early on, but lasts endlessly. “You’re never free from that risk,” a doctor said. “Transplantation for any patient is a process that plays out over a long period of time.” Still, the doctor was amazed to see that DiMeo was able to master skills like zipping up his jacket and putting on his shoes. “It’s very pleasing and satisfying to all of us.” So far, DiMeo has not shown any signs of rejecting his new face or hands. “You got a new chance at life. You really can’t give up,” he said.
34. Why did DiMeo need surgeries?
A. He got injured after being hit by another driver. B. He had an accident during his shift.
C. He was tested for a drug company. D. He got burned in a car accident.
35. What difficulty did the medical team experience?
A. Lack of donors. B. Repeated surgeries.
C. Serious complications. D. No previous practice to follow.
36. Why did the author mention the two surgeries in Paragraph 3?
A. To prove medical technology has greatly advanced.
B. To explain about the dangers of such surgeries.
C To show DiMeo’s operation was a success.
D. To stress such surgeries should be avoided.
37. What can we infer from the doctor’s words in the last but one paragraph?
A. It is possible to avoid the danger of rejection.
B. DiMeo’s improvement gave them a sense of pride.
C. Transplantation is a life-saving chance for patients.
D. it is impossible for any high-risk patient to recover.
【答案】34. D 35. A 36. B 37. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了DiMeo在车祸中烧伤了脸和手,接受了罕见的面部和手部移植手术。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“In 2019, DiMeo fell asleep at the wheel after working a night shift as a product tester for a drug company. The car hit a pole flipped over, and burst into flames.(2019年,DiMeo在一家制药公司担任产品测试员,上完夜班后在开车时睡着了。汽车撞上了电线杆,翻了过来,然后起火了)”以及第二段“Afterward, he underwent 20 surgeries and many skin grafts to treat his third-degree burns.(之后,他接受了20次手术和多次皮肤移植来治疗他的三度烧伤)”可知,DiMeo需要手术是因为他在车祸中被烧伤了。故选D。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Once it became clear that traditional surgeries couldn’t help him regain full vision or use of his hands, DiMeo’s medical team began preparing for the risky transplant. Almost immediately, the team encountered challenges including finding a donor.(一旦意识到传统手术无法帮助他恢复完全的视力或双手的使用,DiMeo的医疗团队就开始为危险的移植手术做准备。几乎立即,团队就遇到了包括寻找捐赠者在内的挑战)”可知,医疗队遇到的困难是缺乏捐助者。故选A。
【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But the face and double hand transplant is extremely rare and had only been tried twice before. The first attempt was in 2009 on a patient in Paris who died about a month later from complications. Two years later, Boston doctors tried it again on a woman, but had to remove the transplanted hands days later.(但面部和双手移植手术极为罕见,此前只进行过两次。第一次尝试是2009年在巴黎对一名患者进行的,该患者在大约一个月后死于并发症。两年后,波士顿的医生在一名女性身上再次进行了试验,但几天后不得不移除移植的双手)”可推知,作者在第3段提到这两个手术是为了解释这类手术的危险。故选B。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“ Still, the doctor was amazed to see that DiMeo was able to master skills like zipping up his jacket and putting on his shoes. “It’s very pleasing and satisfying to all of us.” (尽管如此,医生还是惊讶地发现,DiMeo能够掌握拉上夹克拉链和穿鞋等技能。“这对我们所有人来说都是非常愉快和满意的。”)”推知,DiMeo的进步让医生们感到自豪。故选B。

ChatGPT is trained on a vast compilation of articles, websites and social-media posts collected from the Internet as well as real-time conversations—primarily in English—with humans hired by Open AI. It learns to mimic the grammar and structure of the writing and reflects frequently-used phrases.
The chatbot isn’t always accurate: its sources aren’t fact-checked and it relies on human feedback to improve its accuracy.
Open AI developed ChatGPT as part of a strategy to build AI software that will help the company turn a profit. In January, Microsoft unveiled a fresh multibillion-dollar investment in Open AI and said it planned to add ChatGPT into its Bing search app and other products. Competitors Google and Baidu are pushing to launch similar tools.
ChatGPT is free. Open AI released the chatbot as a research preview and users can try it through a particular website. In February, Open AI also launched a high-level version for $20 a month, starting in the US, that will give subscribers priority access.
Media companies including Buzz Feed and the publisher of Sports Illustrated have announced plans to generate content such as quizzes and articles with Chat GPT. Some schools have blocked access to the service on their networks to reduce cheating, while others are actively encouraging students to use the tools ethically(道德上).
AI chat bots and other generative AI programs are mirrors to the data they consume. They repeat and remix what they are fed to both great effect and great failure. Transformer-based AI program failures are particularly difficult to predict and control because the programs rely on such vast quantities of data that it is almost impossible for the developers to grasp what that data contains.
ChatGPT, for example, will sometimes answer questions correctly on topics where it gained high-quality sources and frequently talked with its human trainers. It will respond nonsense to topics that contain a lot of misinformation on the Internet such as conspiracy theories.
Some artists have also said that AI image generators copy their artwork and threaten their livelihoods, while software engineers have said that code generators rip large amounts of their code.

D
Do what you love, and you’ll never work another day in your life. We’ve heard that opinion countless times. But does it even ring true? In fact, I think it’s perfectly normal to love your job and simultaneously(同时发生的) recognize the fact that it’s hard work. That’s right! Sometimes you may feel stressed, overwhelmed or even tired out. It doesn’t mean that you’re in the wrong line of work.
Think back to when you were a little kid. Do you remember what your answer was when people leaned forward and inquired about what you wanted to be when you grew up? Well, I always told people I wanted to be a bird. Having passions and interests is encouraged. But finding what you love is only half the equation. You need to be able to make a living doing it. Real-life pressures require us to pursue avenues that are able to provide us with a decent and comfortable standard of living.
Work and play are two vastly different things. Work requires effort in order to pay the bills and put food on the table, whereas play is all about fun and enjoyment. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to incorporate some of that joy and passion into your daily routine. But that definitely doesn’t mean that your entire career will be a walk in the park. Adding in that pressure and the expectation of payment is exactly what separates your job from everything else. Unlike fun, work isn’t always something that you want to do—it’s something that you need to do. And, chances are, when what you love turns into your job, you might not love it as much anymore.
Pretty much every position comes along with at least a few demanding tasks or responsibilities that will simply never be enjoyable. Maybe you hate the quarterly board meeting. Perhaps you simply can’t stand filling out your monthly expense report. Whatever it is, there’s undoubtedly a certain aspect of your daily routine that makes you say, “Ugh.”
But remember that loving your job is a wonderful thing. Loving your livelihood requires a great deal of effort. It’s pretty much human nature to enjoy the things we’re good at. And in order to be good at your position, you need to put in some elbow grease. Oftentimes, it’s not just the work that we love. It’s the reward and satisfaction we get after doing it well: And we all know that getting things done well involves exerting ourselves. It’s an ever-ending cycle.
42. Why does the author mention the childhood dream in Paragraph 2?
A. To stress the importance of interests.
B. To remind the good times of childhood.
C. To make a comparison with a realistic career.
D. To encourage people to stick to original dreams.
43. What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 4?
A. People’s daily routine of work.
B. Some rules of the workplace.
C. Tasks for different positions.
D. The annoying part of work.
44. What does the underlined part “elbow grease” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Hard work. B. Rich rewards.
C. Personal interests. D. Good experiences.
45. What is the text mainly about?
A. The truth about work. B. The dangers of work.
C The necessity of work. D. The difficulty of work.
【答案】42. C 43. D 44. A 45. A

第一部分 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读表达
Tina Leverton was 62 when she bought her first pair of ballet shoes. She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.”
A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.”
Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).
At her present age, a grand lie-lowering (俯卧撑) to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. “I love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’ And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said.
Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling. “Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton.
46. How did Leverton feel after taking her dance lesson?(no more than 1word)
___________________________________________________________________________
47. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?(no more than 12 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
48. What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 3?(no more than 8 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
49. What did dancing bring to Leverton?(no more than 10 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
50. What can you learn from Leverton’s story? And your reason.(no more than 25 words)
___________________________________________________________________________
【答案】46. Delighted/Glad.
47. Why Leverton didn’t learn dancing when she was young.
48. Keep/Bear sth. in mind.
49. Health, friend and happiness.
50. The story tells me that we should have our own dreams because we never know when we will achieve them.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Tina Leverton从小喜欢舞蹈,但是因为家庭经济条件无法去上舞蹈课,于是在她62岁时终于实现了自己的梦想。
【46题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段““As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.”(“当我进门时,我发现我脸上露出了灿烂的笑容。从我开始的那一刻起,就像回到了家。”)”可知,Leverton上完舞蹈课后感觉开心。故答案为Delighted/Glad.
【47题详解】
考查主旨大意。根据第三段“Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).( Leverton从小就渴望跳舞。遗憾的是,她的父母没钱上芭蕾舞课,因为他们是第一代印度移民,在英国努力谋生。她的父亲是伦敦地铁的一名火车司机,母亲做过两份清洁工作。尽管如此,她仍怀揣着成为芭蕾舞演员的梦想)”可知,第三段主要介绍了Leverton小时候没能学跳舞的原因。故答案为Why Leverton didn’t learn dancing when she was young.
【48题详解】
考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes”可知,Leverton从小就渴望跳舞。遗憾的是,她的父母没钱上芭蕾舞课,以及Nonetheless表示“尽管如此”,说明虽然没钱去上芭蕾舞蹈,但Leverton仍然牢记自己成为芭蕾舞演员的梦想。故划线词意思是“牢记”。故答案为Keep/Bear sth. in mind.
【49题详解】
考查细节理解。根据最后一段“Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling.(芭蕾舞具有变革性。在Leverton上完第一堂课几个月后的一次医疗预约中,一位护士给她测量了163厘米的身高,比她想象的要高半英寸。她将这种差异归因于姿势的改善。她的肌肉张力改善了,腰痛也停止了。跳舞也带来了新朋友。她遇到了一群年纪更大、更独立的女性,并一起努力获得皇家舞蹈学院的团队奖。当然,还有一种快乐的感觉)”可知,舞蹈给莱弗顿带来了健康、朋友和快乐。故答案为Health, friend and happiness.
【50题详解】
考查开放题。根据“你能从莱弗顿的故事中学到什么?还有你的理由”可回答:这个故事告诉我,我们应该有自己的梦想,因为我们永远不知道什么时候我们会实现它们。故答案为The story tells me that we should have our own dreams because we never know when we will achieve them.

【答案】Dear Chris,
I am glad to receive your email asking for my suggestions on protecting elephants. Here are three points I suggest to raise awareness of the importance of elephant protection.
Firstly, we can organize campaigns on social media to alert the public on the plight of elephants. By sharing articles and photos on these campaigns, we can reach out to more people and encourage them to take action.
Secondly, we can collaborate with local schools and community groups to organize events such as lectures, where we can spread the message of elephant protection.
Finally, we can also raise funds to support organizations dedicated to elephant protection. By donating or fundraising, we can help these organizations take effective measures to protect elephants.
I am willing to provide further assistance on this issue, and I would be happy to discuss it with you further.
Best regards,
Li Jin
