Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice. Passage OneRows of new school desks equipped with bike pedals (踏板) are allowing students in Mexico to power through their class work while doing some light exercise, burning off calories in a country known for its alarming obesity rates.But for the students at a high school just outside the bustling city of Monterrey, the new bike desks offer benefits beyond exercise.“When we're physically active it also helps keep us focused,” said 13-year-old Reimy Rodriguez, in her first year at Public High School 24. “It's actually incredible.”A third of all Mexicans are obese and as children age, many pack on the pounds. A recent national study showed about 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese, which rises to almost 19% for kids between 5-11 years old.Sanjuanita Garcia, the school's principal, points to the bike desks' post-pandemic benefits, especially for boys more vulnerable to excessive weight gain.The school currently features two classrooms fully decked out with the new desks, but the plan is to gradually add them to all 21 classrooms.Large amounts of excess body weight during early years poses numerous dangers to children’s health, including increased risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, bone and joint problems, and asthma.Most children do not outgrow weight problems acquired in early life, and obesity in adulthood is known to contribute to strokes, heart disease, and dementia.11. What can you learn from the first 3 paragraphs?A. Besides burning off calories, the new desks help to keep students focused.B. All schools in Mexico have been equipped with new bikes.C. The bike desks are designed to keep students focused.D. The bike desks are welcomed by both teachers and students.12. How do you understand “more vulnerable to excessive weight gain” in Paragraph 5?A. easier to gain excessive weightB. sensitive to the fact of gaining weightC. gaining weight voluntarilyD. urgent to gain weight13. Obesity in adulthood may cause the following illness EXCEPT________.A. StrokeB. Low blood pressureC. Heart diseaseD. Dementia14. Which of the following can NOT be learned from the passage?A. Mexico is a country with high obesity rates.B. About 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese.C. Large amounts of excess body weight during early years pose numerous dangers to children’s health.D. The school referred in the text has equipped bike desks to 21 classrooms.15. The best title for this passage could be “________”.A. A New Step to Lose Weight, A Bigger Achievement to Fight ObesityB. The Significance of Proper DesksC. Bike Desks Help Mexican Students Learn While Burning CaloriesD. Alarming Obesity Rates, How Will Mexicans Solve It?Passage TwoThere are many good reasons to continue to explore space. But in space exploration the “real reasons” - that are the most important - are as follows.First, most of us want to be, both as individuals and as societies, the first or the best in some activity. We want to stand out. This behavior is rooted in our genes. We are today the descendants(后代) of people who survived by outperforming others.A second reason is curiosity. Who among us has not had the desire to know what's over the next hill? What child has not been drawn to explore the unfamiliar places beyond the neighborhood?Finally, we humans have, since the earliest civilizations, built monuments(纪念碑). We want to leave something behind to show the next generation, or the generations after that, what we did with our time here. This is why cathedrals (大教堂), pyramids (金字塔) , art galleries and museums have been built.Cathedral builders would understand what I mean by real reasons. The monuments they built required a far greater percentage of their gross domestic product (国内生产总值) than we will ever put into the space business, but we look back across 600 or 800 years of time, and we are still awed (敬畏的) by what the builders accomplished. Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.The return the cathedral builders made on their investment could not have been summarized in a cost/benefit analysis. They gained societal advantages that were probably even more important than learning how to build walls and roofs. The people who started the cathedrals didn’t live to finish them. The society as a whole had to be dedicated to the completion of those projects.16. What kind of behavior is rooted in our genes according to the passage?A. Making money.B. Finding other lives in space.C. Looking for another suitable planet.D. Surpassing others.17. What does it illustrate that the child is drawn to explore the unfamiliar places?A. Humans are curious.B. Humans want to leave something for next generations.C. Humans want to excel.D. Humans have a constancy of purpose.18. Which of the following can NOT be regarded as a monument according to the passage?A. Art galleries.B. Museums.C. Parks.D. Pyramids.19. What's the meaning of the sentence “Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.”?A. It requires a great percentage of GDP.B. It can stand for hundreds of years.C. It serves as a symbol of power.D. It represents the builders’ accomplishments.20. What can be gained from building monuments or cathedrals?A. Increase in GDP.B. Gains of societal advantage.C. Economic returns.D. More investment in space exploration.Passage ThreeWith buying power rising among young, heritage-minded consumers, domestic cosmetics brands are winning hearts with guochao -a trend that is seeing younger buyers drawn to products with Chinese cultural elements.In one case, brands are embracing solar term or jieqi, a concept based onChina's ancient calendar, incorporating elements of lunar and solar calendars, which divides the year into 24 periods. This type of marketing is used to inject a sense of nature into beauty routines.Grain Rain, a Chinese skincare brand, is inspired by the sixth solar term, guyu, referring to early crops, which starts around April 20. It was accompanied by a spring-inspired marketing campaign represented by actress Zhou Dongyu in April 2022. It uses the solar term's traditional association with picking herbs to reinforce the label's herbal skincare branding.Generation Z - those born from the mid-to-late 1990s and into the 2000s and a major consumer group - is being affected by the country's cultural renaissance and the development of the internet. They are more independent in their choices and have a greater sense of national identity, experts said.With the rise of guochao, and the influence of the expansion of China's manufacturing ability, consumers are showing an increased preference for domestic cosmetics brands, according to a recent report issued by consulting firm Ernst & Young. Although China's high-end cosmetics market has been dominated for a number of years by international brands, the market influence of homegrown brands has been rapidly rising.In China's third-tier and smaller cities, the penetration rate of domestic cosmetics surpasses 90 percent, and the growth rate of lip balm and lipstick sales has been over 60 percent for two consecutive years, according to a report launched by Juhuasuan, the group-buying arm of e-commerce giant Alibaba.21. Which of the following is similar to the word “drawn” in the first paragraph?A. paintedB. attractedC. pulledD. pushed22. How many solar terms are there in China?A. 20B. 22C. 24D. 1223. Which of the following is NOT correct?A. Grain Rain is a domestic cosmetic brand.B. The brand Grain Rain was created in April 2022.C. Zhou Dongyu does not like herbal skincare branding.D. Grain Rain starts around April 20.24. Which of the following statements is true?A. More and more Chinese consumers prefers international brands to domestic brands.B. China’s high-end cosmetics market has been occupied by international brands for years.C. Generation Z are more likely to be influenced by others when choosing cosmetics.D. The market influence of homegrown brands has been steady in China.25. What does the word “surpass” mean in the last paragraph?A. come acrossB. pass byC. go acrossD. exceedPassage FourI have become obsessed (着迷) with the idea that people can live the lives they want instead of the lives they have. I have been examining the disconnect (脱节) between where people say they want to be and where they are. We work toward achieving those things that we want, whether it is better health and fitness, a car, a house or a great relationship. However, too many of us are settling for less than we want, since we have been taught to believe that “making a living” takes precedence over (优先于) life.I work with individuals who find themselves at a career crossroads. Many of them are mid-level, mid-career professionals. They have been working in one typeof job or career for a while, and now that job or career no longer makes them happy. They have a feeling that there must be "something else out there” for them, but they don’t know what it is.My experience is that mid-career professionals are looking for work that has meaning and value. They want to feel that what they do in the course of their work will leave some sort of imprint (印记) on the world.I know a lot of people want to think they don't have a choice. They believe they are victims (受害者) of circumstances beyond their control. They are not. No one is a victim of circumstance unless they choose to be. But you get to choose how you look at your life and your aspirations. I can't tell you what your dream job is or what your dreams might look like. I can tell you that you owe it to yourself to consider that it is possible for you.So, consider: What do you really want in your life? Is it possible to live the life of your dreams? I maintain that it is. Do you have to settle for less than you want or deserve? Do you want to make a life instead of just eking out a living (勉强度日)? You can, but only if you want to. You get to choose.26. Why are so many people settling for less than they want?A. Because hope keeps them going.B. Because there is always a disconnect between where people say they want to be and where they are.C. Because they believe “making a living” takes precedence over life.D. Because they are not struggling hard enough.27.What’s happening to those mid-level, mid-career professionals at career crossroads?A. They stop feeling happy any more.B. They feel “something else out there” for them.C. They know clearly what they are pursuingD. They need to find more challenges.28. What's missing for the mid-career professionals?A. Work that has meaning and value.B. Experience that can benefit the organization.C. Partners that will be appreciated.D. Company that makes people feel validated29. If you are struggling with what you want in your work, you should________.A. look for an advisorB. discuss it with your friendsC. remember you can always chooseD. listen to your heart30. To those who think they don’t have a choice, the author's advice is________.A. that they are victims of circumstancesB. that it's up to them to decide their livesC. that something is just out of controlD. that they should eke out a livingPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section.

For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice.A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted the first study to evaluate how the duration of nightly sleep early in the semester affects first year college students end-of-semester grade point average (GPA). Using Fitbit sleep trackers,they found that students on 51 sleep 6.5 hours a night, but 52 outcomes accumulate when students received less than six hours of sleep a night. The results are 53 in the Feb. 13 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Sleep guidelines 54 teenagers get 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night. Many college students experience irregular and insufficient sleep.David Creswell, the William S. Dietrich II Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences, led a team of researchers to 55 the relationship between sleep and GPA. College students often push themselves to achieve.“Animal studies have shown how critical sleep is for learning and memory,” said Creswell. "Here we show how this work translates 56 humans. The less nightly sleep a first-year college student gets at the beginning of the school term predicts lower GPA at the end of the term. Lack of sleep may be hurting students’ ability to learn in their college classrooms.”The study evaluated more than 600 first-year students across five studies at three universities. The students wore wrist Fitbit devices to monitor and record their sleep 57 . The researchers found that students in the study sleep on average 6.5 hours a night.More surprisingly, the researchers found that students who receive 58 six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.59 , each hour of sleep lost corresponded to a 0.07 decrease in end-of-term GPA.“Once you start dipp ing below six hours, you are starting to accumulate massive sleep debt that can impair a student’s health and study habits, compromising the whole system,” said Creswell. “Most surprising to me was that no matter 60 we did to make the effect go away, i t persisted.”51. A. average B. whole C. purpose D. schedule52. A. positive B. negative C. promising D. biased53. A. conspicuous B. available C. printing D. confirmed54. A. research B. find C. recommend D. require55.

A. how B. what C. when D. whichPaper Two 试卷二(55 minutes)Part V Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.Learning is something we do our entire lives. I took up learning a foreign language well into my 30s, which has made me rediscover the joys and challenges of learning. I have studied the language for a few years now, but I have never studied using a textbook or by doing homework and exercises. I know this is the tried and tested method for the vast majority of language learners, but it is just not an appropriate way for me. I learn the language by chatting and listening, making mistakes, carrying on, making the same mistakes again, and at some point, subconsciously the mistake remedies itself somehow. This way of learning has allowed me to express myself with far more clarity, ingenuity, and personalization than any textbook could ever have.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 100 words on the topic “The Problems I Face on My Learning?” You could base your composition on the Chinese outline given below.你在学习中都遇到了什么样的困难？为了解决这些困难，你打算怎么办？英语试卷（答案）Part I Dialogue Communication (10 minutes, 10 points)1-5: BCDBA 6-10: CDAABPart II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes, 40 points)11-15: AABDC 16-20: DACDB21-25: BCCBD 26-30: CBACBPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)31-35: ADCBD36-40: BBDDA41-45: ACADA46-50: ACBBCPart IV Cloze Test (10 minutes, 10 points)51-55: ABBCB 56-60: DAACBPart IV Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)学习是我们一生都在做的事情。

A report showed more than 1 million families had lost their only child as of 2012, and the number is projected to increase by 76,000 annually.The availability of elder care services will be under greater pressure as the number of citizens age 60 and above is projected to surpass 300 million at some point in the next five years, according to an official with the Ministry of Civil Affairs.Complicating the situation is the fact that couples who had only one child after China adopted its family planning policy in 1980 will begin entering their 60s in large numbers in the coming decade, said Li Banghua, deputy head of the ministry's elder care services department, on Friday."We are expecting to see greater demand for elder care services, and the supply side will see greater challenges and tests," he said.Li said the ministry is halfway through the drafting process, adding they will stick to the central authority's directives in the sector so that the coming five-year period will lay a solid foundation for achieving universal coverage in basic elder care by 2035.16.

However, a closer look at their reasons for studying at the university will enables us to classify them roughly into three groups: those who have a passion for learning, those who wish to attain a bright future, and those who learn with no definite purpose.Firstly, there are many students who learn simply because they pursue their goal of learning. Some read a wealth of British and American novels because they are keenly interested in literature. Others sit in front of the computer screen, working on a new program, virtually day and night, because they find some computer programs fascinating, and they dream of becoming a “Bill Gates” one day. Secondly, there are students who work hard mainly for a better and more prosperous future. It seems that the majority of students fall into this group. After admission to the university, they read books after books to acquire knowledge from all the resources which are available to them, and finally, to succeed in the future job market.Thirdly, there are still some students who learn without a clear goal. They take courses, finish homework, enjoy life on campus, but don’t want to sample anything new or challenging. They have no idea what they will be doing after college. And they may end up with nothing in their lives.26. Which of the following statements is WRONG?A. College students learn for different purposes.B. College students can be divided into two groups considering why they learn.C. Not all the college students have a passion for learning.D.
