From the concert halls of Europe to the tech industries of the United States, C. J. Santos has created a story across the globe.
Bom in Brazil, Santos moved to Switzerland at the age of 18, and earned degrees in both music performance and business administration there. During his next 10 years of “intense” career as a professional musician, he spent most of his time on the road. “I had the honor to perform in the top concert halls in Europe,” Santos said. “It really wore me out to be constantly traveling and performing, but it allowed me to see the world and understand it in its full diversity. This was a unique experience, and I carry its benefits with me to this day”
Through these experiences, Santos was able to become fluent in six languages. With these skills under his belt, Santos worked with his wife, who is also fluent in four languages, to develop a small translation business.
“Running it with no prior business experience was a challenging but exciting learning-by-doing experience,“ Santos said. “In addition, the translation industry experienced a massive digital transformation in the last decade.”
This brought Santos to an MBA/M.S. program in business analytics and information management, where he got rich experience, knowledge and perspectives in different industries. The program provided him with something he clearly enjoys in life: variety “It helped me take the most advantage of the translation industry’s digital transformation. What I gained from the program is more than what I managed in the 15 years in Europe,” he added.
As Santos continues to grow his business, he’s also working as an advisor. “The world’s digital transformation has advanced at high speed,” he said. “To me, it’s very exciting to be a valuable resource to those who need help to jump onboard the digital express.”

A. Stable but stressful.
B. Tiring but rewarding.
C. Unique and enjoyable.
D. Demanding and fruitless.
5. What drove Santos to take up the MBA/M.S. program?
A. His strong desire for a Master’s Degree.

The number of seabirds killed by colliding (撞击) with wind turbines could be cut by painting black-and-white stripes on the blades (叶片), and poles, say researchers. Graham Martin at the University of Birmingham, UK, and Alex Banks at Natural England, a public organization that has a say in planning applications for offshore wind farms in England, wanted to design a pattern that could be easily painted onto turbines to reduce their impact on bird life.
Between 140,000 and 328,000 birds are killed each year by onshore wind turbines in the US, according to, one estimate. It is harder to tell how many birds are killed by offshore turbines each year, says Martin, as they fall into the ocean.
A previous study, published in 2020, looked at the effect of painting a single blade black on four onshore turbines in Norway. Bird collisions were reduced by 70 percent compared with all-white turbines nearby. Martin believes that further improvements could have an even greater impact. Based on analysis of previous studies into bird vision and bird collisions with wind turbines, the two researchers came up with a series of guiding principles to aid their design of a turbine that would harm. fewer birds.
“Most birds do not see too much fine detail in their vision - especially compared to humans,” says Martin, so any design shouldn’t be too complex. Many collisions occur in low light, so the design should be easy to decipher in the dark, while high internal contrast would help the turbine stand out against different backgrounds, such as a cloudy or sunny sky. In low levels of light, black-and-white patterns are best, says Martin. “In the dark, a red-and-white pattern would rapidly look like shades of grey,” he says. The design hasn’t yet been tested, but Martin hopes that manufacturers will consider it, particularly as it would be easy and cheap to implement.
8. What can we know about Martin and Banks?
A. They have a say in planning applications.
B. They improve the efficiency of wind turbines.
C. They seek to reduce negative influence on bird life.
D. They design colorful turbines to help birds see clear.
9. What’s the purpose of the second paragraph?
A. To state the seriousness of bird collisions. B. To estimate the death rate of bird collisions.
C. To compare the different wind turbine designs. D. To criticize the poor design of the wind turbines.
10. What does the underlined word “decipher” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Differ. B. Recognize. C. Clarify. D. Impress.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. A severe seabird collision phenomenon. B. A new study on seabirds vision.
C. A potential wind turbine application. D. A novel wind turbine design.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员想要设计一种图案，可以很容易地涂在涡轮机上，以减少它们对鸟类的影响。文章介绍了鸟类撞上风力涡轮机的严重性以及这种图案的工作原理。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Graham Martin at the University of Birmingham, UK, and Alex Banks at Natural England, a public organization that has a say in planning applications for offshore wind farms in England, wanted to design a pattern that could be easily painted onto turbines to reduce their impact on bird life.( 英国伯明翰大学的格雷厄姆·马丁和自然英格兰的亚历克斯·班克斯想要设计一种图案，可以很容易地涂在涡轮机上，以减少它们对鸟类的影响，自然英格兰是一个公共组织，在英国海上风力发电厂的规划应用中有发言权)”可知，马丁和班克斯在寻找减少对鸟类生活产生负面影响的办法。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Between 140,000 and 328,000 birds are killed each year by onshore wind turbines in the US, according to, one estimate. It is harder to tell how many birds are killed by offshore turbines each year, says Martin, as they fall into the ocean.(据估计，在美国，每年有14万到32.8万只鸟被陆上风力涡轮机杀死。马丁说，很难统计每年有多少鸟被海上涡轮机杀死，因为它们落入了海洋)”可推知，第二段的目的是陈述鸟类碰撞的严重性。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Many collisions occur in low light, so the design should be easy to”以及后文“while high internal contrast would help the turbine stand out against different backgrounds, such as a cloudy or sunny sky”可知，许多碰撞发生在低光下，所以设计应该很容易在黑暗中被鸟类识别，而高内部对比度将帮助涡轮机在不同的背景下脱颖而出，比如多云或晴朗的天空。故画线词意思是“识别”。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of seabirds killed by colliding (撞击) with wind turbines could be cut by painting black-and-white stripes on the blades (叶片), and poles, say researchers.(研究人员说，与风力涡轮机相撞而死亡的海鸟数量可以通过在叶片和杆子上涂上黑白条纹来减少)”结合文章还介绍了鸟类撞上风力涡轮机的严重性以及这种图案的工作原理。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是一种新颖的风力涡轮机设计。故选D。
D
For years, learning to speak Cantonese was not that hard in San Francisco. It is a place where Cantonese speakers from South China have moved for over 150 years. But now, there is fear that the Cantonese language and culture might not survive present social changes. Cantonese is spoken by some 85 million people worldwide. In comparison, there are around 1 billion Mandarin (or Putonghua) speakers.
In Britain, as in the U. S., most schools that offer Chinese usually teach Mandarin. As a result, many families are struggling to find ways to pass on their Cantonese language and culture. Ceci Pang runs classes for children at Rainbow Seeds Cantonese School in London. “Many parents want their kids to be able to communicate with their grandparents,” she said. “It’s just so hard here, there are so few learning resources and lots of parents get upset. That’s usually the point the parents come to me.”
In China, there are Cantonese television programs as well as Cantonese announcements on public transport. In Hong Kong, however, Cantonese remains the city’s top language. It is used by 90 percent of the population according to an assistant professor at the Education University of Hong Kong.
It is a different story in the U. S. The teaching of Cantonese has decreased somewhat, including in San Francisco, a city that has drawn many Cantonese speakers over the years. The San Francisco school system has Cantonese and Mandarin programs for younger students. But in high school, Mandarin is the only Chinese language available. This spring, some independent Chinese schools are helping to teach the language as Cantonese-speaking communities grow. Aleyda Poe has been managing the Cantonese kindergarten at Merit Chinese School in Plano, Texas, for more than 10 years. Poe put her two sons in the school so that they could learn about Cantonese language and culture. Now, she is helping other families do the same.
12. What are the Cantonese speakers worried about?
A. Survival of Cantonese language and culture. B. Increasing social changes in San Francisco.
C. More and more Mandarin speakers worldwide. D. Less Cantonese speakers in South China.
13. How does Ceci Pang help to handle Cantonese learning in London?
A. By visiting and talking with local families. B. By organizing language classes for kids
C. By reducing Chinese culture teaching at schools D. By using unlimited online resources
14. What is implied about Cantonese learning both in China and the U. S. ?
A. San Francisco is a city with the most Cantonese learners
B. Cantonese is learnt by 90 percent of the population in China
C. Learning resources and opportunities are limited in the U. S.
D. There are no Cantonese learning programs in San Francisco
15. Which can be the suitable title for the text?
A. Importance to improve Cantonese learning globally.
B. Current status of Cantonese learning overseas
C. A brief introduction to Cantonese learning history in U. S.
D. Debates between Cantonese and Mandarin learning
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了海外学习粤语的现状和存在的问题。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But now, there is fear that the Cantonese language and culture might not survive present social changes.(但现在，有人担心粤语和粤语文化可能无法在当前的社会变革中生存下来)”可知，说粤语的人在担心粤语和粤语文化的保存。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Ceci Pang runs classes for children at Rainbow Seeds Cantonese School in London.(Ceci Pang在伦敦彩虹种子粤语学校为孩子们开设课程)”可知，Ceci Pang为孩子们组织语言课程来帮助学生在伦敦学习粤语。故选B。
14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“In Britain, as in the U. S., most schools that offer Chinese usually teach Mandarin. As a result, many families are struggling to find ways to pass on their Cantonese language and culture.(在英国，和美国一样，大多数提供汉语的学校通常教授普通话。因此，许多家庭都在努力寻找方法来传承他们的粤语和文化。)”和最后一段“It is a different story in the U. S. The teaching of Cantonese has decreased somewhat, including in San Francisco, a city that has drawn many Cantonese speakers over the years. The San Francisco school system has Cantonese and Mandarin programs for younger students. But in high school, Mandarin is the only Chinese language available.(美国的情况则不同。粤语教学有所减少，包括在旧金山，这座城市多年来吸引了许多讲粤语的人。旧金山的学校系统为低年级学生开设了粤语和普通话课程。但在高中，普通话是唯一可用的中文)”可推知，有关粤语，在美国，学习资源和机会是有限的。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“For years, learning to speak Cantonese was not that hard in San Francisco.(多年来，在旧金山学广东话并不是那么难)”以及第二段“In Britain, as in the U. S., most schools that offer Chinese usually teach Mandarin. As a result, many families are struggling to find ways to pass on their Cantonese language and culture. (在英国，就像在美国一样，大多数提供中文课程的学校通常都教授普通话。因此，许多家庭都在努力寻找传承粤语和广东文化的方法)”结合文章主要说明了海外学习粤语的现状和存在的问题。可知，B选项“海外学习粤语的现状”最符合文章标题。故选B。

Power of Words
The power of words is sometimes hard to understand. ___16___If you have goals and dreams in life, write them down and speak them out.
As an ancient proverb says, “Your tongue has the power of life and death. ” That means that your words have the power to finally cause things to happen, even life or death. ___17___For example, an encouraging word to someone who is down can lift him up and help him make it through the day. Words can have a powerful effect on your subconscious brain. And it will in turn affect your life greatly.
Be very careful, because your words have destructive power too. You have probably heard of children being scolded by their parents and developing a bad self-image. ___18___They say it is important to praise children 4 times.
___19___It’s not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision you make. We may all experience the power of words in our life, even when we were very young.___20___Encouraging words from our teacher or parents when we fail in the exam can make us work harder at our lessons, while blame or scolding will make things worse.
A. Most kids have that experience.
B. But an encouraging word can go quite a long way.
C. Everything you do is based on the choices you make.
D. You should try to be encouraged and think positively.
E. Your words are likely to bring out something amazing.
F. The familiar words can help us build up a good relationship with others.
G. We all need positive words especially when we are in trouble or need help.
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. A 19. C 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了语言的神奇作用。
【16题详解】
根据上文“The power of words is sometimes hard to understand. (语言的力量有时很难理解。)”以及后文“(If you have goals and dreams in life, write them down and speak them out. (如果你在生活中有目标和梦想，就把它们写下来，然后说出来。) ”可知，本句与上文构成转折，并引出话题——语言对于人的鼓舞作用。故B选项“但是一句鼓励的话意义深远。”符合题意，故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“As an ancient proverb says, “Your tongue has the power of life and death. ” That means that your words have the power to finally cause things to happen, even life or death.”(正如一句古老的犹太谚语所说：“你的舌头拥有生与死的力量。” 这意味着我们的语言有力量最终导致事情发生，甚至是生或死。)”可知，上文提到语言可以决定生死，可见话语可以带来一些惊人的东西，也就是语言的重要性。 故E选项“你的话可能会带来一些惊人的东西”符合语境，故选E。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Be very careful, because your words have destructive power too. You have probably heard of children being scolded by their parents and developing a bad self-image. (要非常小心，因为你的话也有毁灭性的力量。你可能听说过孩子被父母责骂并形成不良的自我形象。)”，结合选项可知A选项“大多数孩子都有这样的经历。”紧密连接上文，并且选项中的“that experience”指代上文的“children being scolded by their parents”，故选A。
【19题详解】
根据下文“It’s not your parents, your past relationships, your job, the economy, or your age that is to blame. You and only you are responsible for every decision you make.”(这不是你的父母，你过去的感情，你的工作，经济，天气，争吵或你的年龄应该受到责备。你，也只有你对你所做的每一个决定负责。)” 可知，下文指出“你，并且只有你要对你做出的每一个决定负责”，这里的“decision you make”与选项C中的“the choices you make”相匹配。故C选项“你所做的每一件事都是基于你所做的选择”顺承下文，符合题意，故选C。
【20题详解】
根据下文“Encouraging words from our teacher or parents when we fail in the exam can make us work harder at our lessons, while blame or scolding will make things worse.”(当我们考试不及格时，老师或父母的鼓励话语可以使我们在功课上更加努力，而责备或责骂会使事情变得更糟。)”可知，后文提到考试不及格责备或责骂会让事情变得更糟，下文“fail in the exam”与选项G中的“in trouble or needing help”相呼应，故G选项“我们都需要积极的词汇，尤其是在遇到麻烦或需要帮助的时候。”符合题意，下文也是对选项的进一步解释和说明，故选G。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了几年后建成的故宫博物院的一个新分馆将更好的展出文物和提供服务。
【41题详解】
考查名词所有格。句意：故宫博物院的一个新分馆预计将在未来几年内在北京郊区拔地而起，以更好地展示故宫的文物。修饰名词词组cultural relics应用名词所有格museum’s表示“博物馆的”。故填museum’s。

【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：位于海淀区西冶河村的新分馆占地面积将超过10万平方米，其中文物展览面积超过6万平方米、文物修复展览面积超过3.5万平方米。a/an...space of“一个……的空间”是固定表达，修饰词exhibition的发音是元音音素开头，故填an。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意同上。空处应填名词作宾语，restoration“修复”符合题意，抽象概念，不可数。故填restoration。
【45题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：目前，该博物馆收藏了186多万件文物。空处为句子谓语动词，根据时间状语at present判断为一般现在时，主语relics和house之间为被动关系，故应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是复数，故填are housed。
【46题详解】

【48题详解】
考查副词。句意：由于缺乏必要的环境，一些丝绸和棉花艺术品目前根本无法展出。修饰谓语动词cannot be exhibited应用所给词的副词形式。故填currently。
【49题详解】
考查不定式。句意：新分馆建成后，每年可以展出2万至3万件文物。此处为固定句型：it be+adj.+to do sth.“做某事是……的”，it是形式主语，不定式是真正的主语。故填to display。

It’s time for us to graduate. Before parting, our class is going to hold the last class meeting, which theme will be the Past Golden Days. We plan to have several activities to bring a unforgettable ending to our beautiful days. Firstly, we will watch the photos take during the three years, especial about our school events. It will surely make everyone to recall those precious moments. Then we’ll extend our sincere gratitude to our teachers. It is them who give without asking anything for return. Then come one of the most important moment in our life—a big party. In a word, I hope the last class meeting will held successfully and meaningfully.
【答案】1.which→whose 2.a→an 3.take→taken 4.especial→especially 5.删除to
6.them→they 7.for→in 8.come→comes 9.moment→moments 10.在will后加be
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文。在讲稿中，作者谈及最后一次班会主题以及计划进行的内容。
【详解】1.考查定语从句。句意：临别前，我们班将举行最后一次班会，主题将是昔日的黄金岁月。分析句子可知，非限制性定语从句的先行词为class meeting，关系代词在从句中作theme的定语，表所属关系，应用whose。故将which改为whose。
2.考查冠词。句意：我们计划举办几场活动，为我们美好的日子画上一个难忘的句号。unforgettable以元音音素开头，应用不定冠词an修饰。故将a改为an。
3.考查非谓语动词过去分词。句意：首先，我们将观看三年来拍摄的照片，特别是关于我们学校活动的照片。本句已有谓语will watch，且此处与谓语之间没有连词，故take应用非谓语形式，take与所修饰的名词photos之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故将take改为taken。
4. 考查副词。句意：首先，我们将观看三年来拍摄的照片，特别是关于我们学校活动的照片。修饰后文的介词短语about our school events，应用副词especially，起强调作用。故将especial改为especially。
5.考查不带to动词不定式。句意：这一定会让每个人回忆起那些珍贵的时刻。使役动词make后接的复合宾语中，用省略to的不定式作宾补，make sb. do sth.为固定搭配，意为“使某人做某事”。故删除to。
6.考查代词。句意：是他们给予而不求回报。分析句子结构可知，本句去掉It is和who后句意仍完整，因此该句为强调句，被强调的部分为主语，故应用主格they（指代上句的our teachers）。故将them改为they。
7.考查介词。句意：是他们给予而不求回报。in return为固定搭配，意为“作为回报”。故将for改为in。
8. 考查时态。句意：然后，我们一生中最重要的时刻到来了——一个盛大的聚会。根据Then可知，本句是一般现在时，全倒装句，主语one为第三人称单数，主谓一致，故将come改为comes。
9.名词复数。句意：然后，我们一生中最重要的时刻到来了——一个盛大的聚会。 moment为可数名词，“one of +形容词最高级+可数名词复数”为固定结构，表示“最……的……之一”，此处应用复数形式，故将moment改为moments。
10.考查被动语态。句意：总之，我希望最后一次班会能开得顺利而有意义。谓语动词hold和主语the last class meeting为被动关系，应用被动语态，结构为be done，助动词will后要跟动词原形，故在will后加be。
