Lynda Doughty, a marine biologist, developed a passion for marine wildlife during her childhood. Growing up along the coast of Maine, she witnessed the impact of human activity on marine mammals and she made it her life’s work to protect them. “I feel this intense responsibility to help these animals,” Lynda said. “And, really, this is what I was put on this Earth to do.”
Harbor seals are among the most common mammals found along the East Coast, and they face various threats to their well-being, including fishing net s and illegal feeding, chemical pollutants, as well as boat and propeller (螺旋桨) injuries.
Earlier in her career, she worked for a marine mammal emergency response organization that eventually closed due to lack of funding. To fill the gap left by the group, Lynda started her own non-profit organization — Marine Mammals of Maine in 2011. It has since provided response and medical care for more than 3,000 marine mammals.
Lynda’s team operates a 24-hour hotline that responds to calls regarding marine mammals in danger. Their permit allows them to respond to mammals stranded (搁浅) within 2,500 miles of the coastline, and her team only offers help if the mammal is in critical condition. Critically ill mammals are transported to Lynda’s center and nursed back to health. Seals typically require three or more months of professional care treatment before they are released back into the ocean.
In addition to mammal rescues, Marine Mammals of Maine conducts important research to learn about marine mammal habitats and human impacts. Marine mammals can give us clues about the ocean’s health, which ultimately affects human well-being as well. The organization also helps promote marine conservation among youth and the local community. In addition, they instruct the public on what to do, and what not to do, when encountering wild species like harbor seals.
4. What do Lynda’s words mean?
A. She was born along the coast of Maine.
B. She ignored the impact of human activity.
C. She did her work with a sense of mission.
D. She protected marine wildlife at a young age.
5. Why did Lynda set up Marine Mammals of Maine in 2011?
A. To earn more money.
B. To replace the group.
C. To make the group a non-profit organization.
D. To restart marine mammal emergency response.
6. What can we learn about Lynda’s team from paragraph 4?
A. It only treats critically ill seals.
B. It rescues marine mammals in danger.
C. It protects all endangered marine mammals.
D. It stops people from fishing marine mammals.
7. What’s the purpose of paragraph 5?
A. To state younger generations need to be instructed.
B. To stress the severe situations that marine life faces.
C. To mention other social contributions of Lynda’s team.
D. To show humans have a great impact on marine mammals.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. C

Whether your kid can count on a sizable inheritance (遗产) or your family is living pay period to pay period, a college degree is a must. Along with the invisible life skills you get from those formative years on campus, college comes with a bankable payout: A Georgetown University study found that, on average, college graduates make a million dollars more over a lifetime than people who stop at high school.
Recently, a Bronx nonprofit asked me to speak to a group of high schoolers whose families were struggling financially. The participants were (rightly) worried about taking on too much college debt. Here’s what I told them: Even when you subtract (扣除) tuition, lost earnings during the college years, and other factors, an average college grad will still take in $300,000 more than those without a college degree.
And while rising tuition fees are a serious worry, free college programs of one kind or another have sprung up in more than 20 states. My own home state, New York, boasts one of the most comprehensive efforts. The Excelsior Scholarship program guarantees that students at public institutions attend tuition-free if their family earns under $110,000 a year.
Even in Silicon Valley, where there are many successful people who don’t own a college degree, I asked a group of parents there if it’s true that kids are giving up a college degree because they’re sure they’ll be rich people. The answer was a resounding, unapologetic no.
The truth is that in this STEM (science, technology, engineering and math)-centric age, any form of home-schooling or social education can’t replace the formal school education. Especially in an age when many low-end careers are being replaced by artificial intelligence (AI), a college degree can give your kid an edge.
8. In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to ________.
A. propose a definition B. make a comparison
C. give an example D. present an argument
9. What can we infer from the text?
A. Free college programs are available all over the USA.
B. In the STEM-centric age, a college degree is essential.
C. In New York, all public school students are tuition-free.
D. Children from rich families don’t need a college degree.
10. What is happening to the low-end careers?
A. They are developing very rapidly.
B. They are all being engaged by AI.
C. They are all depending on a degree.
D. They are disappearing because of AI.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Why do you need a college degree?
B. Where can you enjoy free education?
C. What is a must in the STEM-centric age?
D. How much do people with a degree earn in US?
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. A

Asteroids (小行星) are believed to have formed early in our solar system’s history — about 4.5 billion years ago — when a cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula (太阳星云) collapsed and formed our sun and the planets. By visiting these near Earth objects to study the material that came from the solar nebula, we can look for answers to some of humankind’s most arresting questions, such as: How did the solar system form and where did the Earth’s water and other organic materials such as carbon come from? In addition to unlocking clues about our solar system, asteroids may provide clues about our Earth. By understanding more about asteroids, we may learn more about past Earth impacts and possibly find ways to reduce the threat of future impacts.
If we don’t want to go the way of the dinosaurs someday, we need to protect ourselves against the threat of being hit by a big asteroid. According to NASA, typically about once every 10,000 years, a rock y or iron asteroid the size of a football field could crash into our planet and possibly cause tidal waves big enough to flood coastal areas.
But what we really have to fear is asteroids about 328 feet across or bigger. Such an impact would cause a firestorm and fill the atmosphere with sun-blocking dust, which would wipe out forests and farm fields and starve the human and animal life that it didn’t immediately kill.
That’s why it’s vital to develop a way to neutralize such a threat to Earth. NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test, launched in late November 2021, was the first mission to demonstrate a technology called asteroid redirection by manmade impactor. A robotic spacecraft will be crashed into an asteroid named Didymos, in an effort to show that it’s possible to slightly change the path of an asteroid. That would enable NASA to redirect potential threats to miss Earth.
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. How solar system came into being.
B. How long asteroids have existed.
C. Why asteroids are to be explored.
D. When asteroids will impact Earth.
13. Why does the author mention dinosaurs in paragraph 2?
A. To make the text more interesting.
B. To introduce the topic of the text.
C. To grab readers’ attention to asteroids.
D. To show the disaster from an asteroid impact.
14 Which can best replace “neutralize” underlined in paragraph 4?
A. strengthen B. avoid C. beautify D. realize
15. What can we know about asteroids?
A. Dinosaurs may live on some of them.
B. They were formed earlier than Earth.
C. Exploring them helps us know Earth.
D. NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test failed.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了了解小行星的好处,但也需谨防其对地球的危险,介绍了美国国家航空航天局的人造撞击器小行星重定向技术及其演示。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“By visiting these near Earth objects to study the material that came from the solar nebula, we can look for answers to some of humankind’s most arresting questions, such as: How did the solar system form and where did the Earth’s water and other organic materials such as carbon come from? In addition to unlocking clues about our solar system, asteroids may provide clues about our Earth. By understanding more about asteroids, we may learn more about past Earth impacts and possibly find ways to reduce the threat of future impacts. (通过访问这些近地天体来研究来自太阳星云的物质,我们可以寻找一些人类最引人注目的问题的答案,例如:太阳系是如何形成的,地球的水和碳等其他有机物质来自哪里?除了解开关于我们太阳系的线索外,小行星还可能提供关于我们地球的线索。通过更多地了解小行星,我们可能会更多地了解过去对地球的撞击,并可能找到减少未来撞击威胁的方法)”可知,第一段主要讲了为什么要探索小行星。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段“If we don’t want to go the way of the dinosaurs someday, we need to protect ourselves against the threat of being hit by a big asteroid. According to NASA, typically about once every 10,000 years, a rock y or iron asteroid the size of a football field could crash into our planet and possibly cause tidal waves big enough to flood coastal areas. (如果有一天我们不想走恐龙的路,我们需要保护自己免受被大小行星撞击的威胁。据美国国家航空航天局称,通常每10000年就会有一颗足球场大小的岩石或铁小行星撞击我们的星球,并可能引发足以淹没沿海地区的潮汐)”可知,通常每10000年就会有一颗足球场大小的岩石或铁块大小的小行星撞击我们的星球,并可能引发灾难,恐龙已灭绝,作者在第二段中提到恐龙是为了展示小行星撞击造成的灾难。故选D项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。由第四段中的“That’s why it’s vital to develop a way to neutralize such a threat to Earth. NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test, launched in late November 2021, was the first mission to demonstrate a technology called asteroid redirection by manmade impactor. (这就是为什么开发一种方法来neutralize对地球的这种威胁至关重要。美国国家航空航天局的双小行星重定向测试于2021年11月下旬启动,是首次演示人造撞击器小行星重定向技术的任务)”和“That would enable NASA to redirect potential threats to miss Earth. (这将使美国国家航空航天局能够将潜在的威胁重新定向为错过地球)”可知,人造撞击器小行星重定向技术能使小行星错过地球,可得出这是一种消除对地球威胁的方法,划线词意为“避开(avoid)”。故选B项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中的“In addition to unlocking clues about our solar system, asteroids may provide clues about our Earth. By understanding more about asteroids, we may learn more about past Earth impacts and possibly find ways to reduce the threat of future impacts. (除了解开关于我们太阳系的线索外,小行星还可能提供关于我们地球的线索。通过更多地了解小行星,我们可能会更多地了解过去对地球的撞击,并可能找到减少未来撞击威胁的方法)”可知,探索小行星有助于我们了解地球。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了不敢第一个做事导致的问题以及建议勇敢做第一个尝试的人。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Are you afraid of speaking up first? Do you hesitate to go first in for testing, for an interview or for a speech?(你害怕先说出来吗?你是否会犹豫要不要先去参加考试、面试或演讲?)”以及后文“However, this is often not the best strategy to find success.(然而,这通常不是获得成功的最佳策略)”可知,本句主要是在回答上文的问题,说明一个大多数人都会采取的策略。故D选项“许多人宁愿等待,让另一个人先去”符合语境,故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文“What is the problem of not going first? There might be a few.(不先去有什么问题?可能会有一些)”以及后文“Someone else will set the trend for what goes next and you will have to follow. If you go first, you become the trend-setter and you have more of an impact on how things are going to develop next.(其他人会为接下来的事情设定趋势,而你将不得不跟随。如果你走在前面,你就会成为潮流的引领者,你就会对接下来的发展产生更大的影响)”可知,后文提到了“如果你走在前面,你就会成为潮流的引领者”,说明不第一个去会导致无法成为领导者,而是追随他人。故B选项“这会让你成为一个跟随者而不是领导者”符合语境,故选B。
【18题详解】
根据后文“Someone else exactly takes the chance and they might come off as being braver or more willing to take risks. Worse still, it can sometimes make a difference in how you are perceived, especially if there is some sort of competition.(有些人会抓住机会,他们可能会表现得更勇敢或更愿意冒险。更糟糕的是,它有时会改变你在别人心目中的形象,尤其是在存在某种竞争的情况下)”可知,后文提到了“改变你在别人心目中的形象”,即给人的留下的印象,故E选项“你会错过给人留下第一印象的机会”符合语境,故选E。
【19题详解】
根据上文“You might also lose out on persons who are important to you. If you dare not talk to a person first, maybe he or she will not talk to you and you will miss out on a potential friend or partner.(你也可能失去对你很重要的人。如果你不敢先和一个人说话,也许他或她不会和你说话,你就会错过一个潜在的朋友或伴侣)”以及后文“But if you take the first step, though you might not always succeed, you will know that you have tried hard to take the chance.(但是,如果你迈出了第一步,尽管你可能并不总是成功,但你会知道你已经努力尝试过了)”可知,后文与本句构成转折关系,指出犹豫的坏处:你的竞争对手已经在你前面采取行动了。故F选项“如果你在犹豫,你的竞争对手已经在你前面采取行动了”符合语境,故选F。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Hence, give yourself permission to be first. Introduce yourself first and see how much easier it makes your relationships. Go on stage first. Answer the question first.(因此,允许自己成为第一个。首先介绍你自己,看看这会让你们的关系变得容易多少。先上台吧。先回答问题)”可知,上文提到“先上台吧。先回答问题”,说明在鼓励主动去成为第一个做这件事的人,故G选项“主动做第一件事,别人会因为你的勇敢而尊敬你”符合语境,故选G。

47. 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。
Nancy took me by the hand and walked me into the house like I was a five-year-old child. Didn’t she know I was turning 15 years old? This was the third home Nancy was placing me in. I guessed she might feel a little sorry for me. The bright lights threatened to burn my skin as I walked towards a lady with curly hair and a smiling man. They called themselves Allie and Alex. After Nancy completed the foster (寄养的) process with them, Allie and Alex took me to their home. This time, there were no other foster children and no other biological children.
Over the next few weeks, Allie, Alex, and I fell into quite a nice routine. Allie would make pancakes for breakfast, or Alex would fry some eggs. They sang a lot, and even danced as they cooked. And they always seemed to be full of energy and happiness. They must have just bought the house because, on most weekends, we were painting a living room yellow or painting a coffee table brown.
But I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. When would they start threatening a loss of pancakes if I didn’t mow (修剪) the lawn? When would the eggs be replaced with unidentifiable food because they didn’t feel like cooking in the morning? However, it never happened. They kept cooking, singing, and dancing like a couple of happy fools. “Maybe this is where I belong,” I told myself.
It was a Saturday afternoon when Allie decided it was time to paint the fireplace white. First, we cleaned the dirty old fireplace, and then we pulled the burnt wood out. Suddenly, we noticed a tiny treasure box. We looked at each other in excitement. Allie actually said, “I wonder if a fairy has left it!” While judging her to be such a silly woman, I couldn’t help but laugh and felt a little closer to her. We looked at each other and wondered what would be inside the box. Would there be something valuable like a golden ring?
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Allie and I managed to pull the box out.

Then Allie and Alex called the former owner of the house.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Allie and I managed to pull the box out. Opening the box, we saw a shining diamond ring. A short piece of paper was folded underneath the ring. After reading the words, Allie realized it was a wedding ring and that the ring belonged to the former owner of the house, Mrs Brown, whose husband had died ten years before. “It is such a valuable ring. We’d better return it to the owner as soon as possible,” Allie suggested. I totally agreed with her.
Then Allie and Alex called the former owner of the house. On the phone, Alex told Mrs Brown what we had found in the fireplace. Although we couldn’t see her expression, we could feel her excitement and surprise. Allie and Alex then offered to send the ring to her immediately. Suddenly, I felt a strong sense of belonging at this new home. Their love for each other, the honesty they showed to others and their care for me finally made me believe I would enjoy true happiness with them as a family.
