Which fruit personality are you
In the workplace, we have to be able to deal with people who aren’t like us. No one will change for you, so you just have to respect their differences.When identifying personality types, I like to talk in terms of fruit. Nobody is just one fruit, but we all have a preference. And we tend to emphasize our top two, especially under pressure. Here are some fruit personalities and how best to deal with them.
Types Introduction & Management
Apple: Hard Core Apple types are direct and don’t suffer fools. They are fast, logical thinkers who love to win and hate to lose control. They’ll get a result at any cost, but see conflict as sport. Always stand up to them.
Get to the point.
Don’t take it personally.
Watch and learn from them.
Mango: Juicy and Messy Mango types love life and can’t afford to miss a minute. They love variety because they tend to be easily distracted and naturally rule breakers. Talk big picture, avoid details.
Give them false deadlines.
Don’t micro-manage.
Lemon: Concentrated Lemon types love structure and order. They are worriers who like security and predictability. They excel at spotting gaps in a plan. But too many rules can also be frustrating. Respect their need for space.
Don’t surprise them.
Listen with respect.
Show your pace.
Banana: Sweet and Gentle Banana types enjoy peace and shy away from conflicts. They are kind to react to others’ requests. However, when they are too accommodating, they can be seen as indecisive. Don’t pressure them, motivate.
Create a positive environment.
Encourage regular feedback.
Be nice to them.
21. What do people of Mango and Lemon personalities have in common
A. They both prefer private space and specific deadlines.
B. They both need regular feedback and being motivated.

As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children.
Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification. “Within10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification.
Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers rather than chemicals.
In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.”
By September2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant l million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco.
24．How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her
A．They fired her enthusiasm for helping others.
B．They helped her better understand her father.
C．They made her decide to leave the country.
D．They destroyed her dream of being a teacher.
25．What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland
A．Cold weather. B．Soil pollution. C．Low rainfall. D．Forest damage.
26．Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia
A．To create job opportunities for young people.
B．To promote the protection of their farmland.
C．To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers.
D．To help the children obtain a basic education.
27．Which of the following can be the best title to the text
A．Saving Water in Africa B．Fighting Poverty in North Africa
C．Holding back the Sahara D．Planting Trees in Tunisia
C
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends that children aged 6 to 12 years of age sleep 9 to 12 hours per night on a regular basis to promote optimal health. Up until now, no studies have examined the permanent impact of sleep shortage on the neurocognitive development of pre-teens.
To conduct the study, the researchers examined data that were collected from more than 8,300 children aged 9 to 10 years who were enrolled in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study. They examined MRI images, medical records, and surveys completed by the participants and their parents at the time of enrollment and at a two-year follow-up visit at 11 to 12 years of age.
“We found that children who had insufficient sleep, less than nine hours per night, at the beginning of the study had less grey matter or smaller volume in certain areas of the brain responsible for attention, memory and inhibition control compared to those with healthy-sleep habits,” said study corresponding author Ze Wang. “These differences persisted after two years, a concerning finding that suggests long-term harm for those who do not get enough sleep.”
This is the first finding to demonstrate the potential long- term impact of lack of sleep on neurocognitive development in children. It also provides substantial support for the current sleep recommendations in children. But additional studies are needed to confirm the finding and to see whether any interventions can improve sleep habits and reverse the neurological deficits according to Dr. Wang and his colleagues.
The American Academy of Pediatrics encourages parents to help children develop good sleep habits. Their tips include making sufficient sleep a family priority, sticking with a fixed sleep routine, encouraging exercise during the day, limiting screen time and eliminating screens completely an hour before bed.
“This is a crucial study finding that points to the importance of doing long-term studies on the developing child’s brain,” said E. Albert Reece. “Sleep can often be overlooked during busy childhood days filled with homework and extracurricular activities. Now we see how detrimental that can be to a child’s development.”
28. Why did the researchers conduct the study
A. To promote optimal mental health for children 6 to 12.
B. To examine the long- lasting effect of insufficient sleep.
C. To give support for current children sleep recommendations.
D. To assess the permanent impact of early neurocognitive development.
29. What might the further study focus on
A. The effectiveness of interventions. B. The consequences of lack of sleep.
C. The benefits of enough sleep. D. The solutions to memory loss.
30. What is advised to promote good sleep habits in children
A. A regular sleep schedule. B. Less exposure to homework.
C. More physical activities at night. D. A reduction in screen time before bed.
31. What is mainly discussed about the study in the last paragraph
A. Its application. B. Its limitation. C. Its procedure. D. Its significance.
D
What is life Like most great questions, this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer. The reason is simple: we know of just one type of life and it’s challenging to do science with a sample size of one. The field of artificial life-called ALife for short — is the systematic attempt to spell out life’s fundamental principles. Many of these practitioners, so-called ALifers, think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.
So far no one has convincingly made artificial life. This track record makes ALife a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field’s doubtful scientific value. Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints. Asking about “the point” of ALife might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says. “The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything.” Alan says. “Some people ask me, ‘So what’s the worth of artificial life ’ Do you ever think, ‘What is the worth of your grandmother ’”
As much as many ALifers hate emphasizing their research’s applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs. Artificial intelligence may be considered ALife’s cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution. This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity, to be a sort of “novelty generator”. The only system known to exhibit this is Earth’s biosphere. If the field of ALife manages to reproduce life’s endless “creativity” in some virtual model, those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.
Compared with the developments of Al, advances in ALife are harder to recognize. One reason is that ALife is a field in which the central concept — life itself — is undefined. The lack of agreement among ALifers doesn’t help either. The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths. For better or worse, ALife mirrors the very subject it studies. Its muddled (混亂的) progression is a striking parallel to the evolutionary struggles that have shaped Earth biosphere.
Undefined and uncontrolled, ALife drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty. It may be, of course, that these characteristics aren’t in any way surprising or singular. They may apply universally to all acts of evolution. Ultimately ALife may be nothing special. But even this dismissal suggests something：perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of ALife will prove unavoidable.
32. Regarding Alan Smith’s defence of ALife, the author is .
A. supportive B. puzzled C. unconcerned D. doubtful
33. What does the word “enamored” underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A. Shocked. B. Protected. C. Attracted. D. Challenged.
34. What can we learn from this passage
A. ALife holds the key to human future. B. ALife and AI share a common feature.
C. AI mirrors the developments of ALife. D. AI speeds up the process of human evolution.
35. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. Life Is Undefined. Can AI Be a Way Out
B. Life Evolves. Can AI Help ALife Evolve, Too
C. Life Is Undefined. Can ALife Be Defined One Day
D. Life Evolves. Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve, Too

The Changing Landscape of the Music Business
The music industry is in the process of a great change. In the past decades, artists made money through physical sales of records, CDs, and cassettes. While in recent years, downloading songs from services such as Amazon or iTunes has become the most common way for people to purchase music, and the whole idea of buying music to own may be falling. To take its place are Internet apps that stream music directly to listeners on their smartphones, tablets, or computers. 36 While this is great for fans, who now have access to millions of songs at the flick of a touchscreen, it has shattered the traditional model of how an artist manages his or her career.
With music lovers increasingly moving away from making one-time purchases towards an all-you-can-listen-to service, what is a hard-working artist to do The main problem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream of a song are much lower than what an artist would receive from a download. 37 In November of 2014, award-winning musician Taylor Swift pulled her entire music catalog from Spotify, a popular streaming app, claiming that their business model suggests that music does not hold much worth.
38 They claim that it offers smaller artists a chance for their music to get heard by a wider audience. Brian Message, manager of the band Radiohead, has come out in support of streaming services. He sees them as a way for musicians and fans to interact.
Regardless of what artists may think about this change in the music industry, there’s no arguing that they need to adapt in order to make money. 39
Corporate sponsorship can be a risky option for musicians. A band can make much money by agreeing to promote a product or license its music for use in advertisements, but there are many ways that this can backfire. When bands work with businesses, they may lose the image they have worked to create. 40 Artists must develop an image that appeals to their fans in order to remain unique and authentic, or they risk striking .the wrong chord, which could leave them struggling to sustain careers in this new business landscape.
A. Others have welcomed the idea of streaming music.
B. However, those forms of media are quickly fading away.
C. Some big-name artists have called attention to the issue.
D. The rules could be different for smaller bands just starting out.
E. Maintaining a fine image while working on a career is certainly tricky.
F. One major shift is the growth in partnership between artists and businesses.
G. These apps are available either as free versions or as monthly subscription services.

Training was brutal, as Penny Lee Dean prepared for what would be a record-setting swim―regardless of sex―across the English Channel in 1978. “Your hands cramp, your legs cramp,” she remembers.
While the cold was bone-chilling, 41 it has been essential to her success as a record-breaking swimmer. An ability to tolerate extreme 42 is one of the advantages that women may have in this sport, as their distribution of fat is 43 for regulating body temperature in cold water.
Dean believes that any upper hand women might have in open-water swimming over a long 44 is more about mental 45 and the ability to withstand discomfort than about insulation (阻隔). In the ultradistance 46 , the ability to juggle more factors, from weather to pain, becomes particularly important.
In fact, women can outperform or perform 47 to men in a range of competitive events. From ultrarunning to shooting sports, in some competitions women even have the 48 .
Cassio Rippel, the ISSF Athletes Committee Chair, says that while men’s muscles 49 give them more endurance, women’s lower body mass and lower center of 50 , on average, allow them better equilibrium (平衡) control. The rifle events are the most sex-balanced of the three types of shooting events in the Olympics, according to Rippel.
The Paris Olympics are the first Olympics to have equal numbers of female 51 . This is also an opportunity to 52 what gaps in inclusion are still in existence. While much of the science of sex and performance may be 53 , one thing that’s crystal clear is that more research needs to involve women.
The 54 toward greater inclusion has not been straight, and more questions than answers 55 about the role of sex in athletic performance.

閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個適當的單詞或括號內單詞的正確形式。
L A, based AD100 designer Jamie Bush embraces natural materials and bold designs that inspire and delight. Originally trained 56 an architect, Bush is drawn to timeless pieces with clean lines, such as minimalist furniture and bedding. When it comes to designing the perfect bedroom, here's 57 Bush would approach it.
“You can use timeless pieces as a handsome 58 (found) for many aesthetic(美學的) languages,” Bush says. For example, Bush imagines thoughtful designs in a Scandinavian-style bedroom 59 he’d center the space with a solid wood bed frame and headboard in a natural color. The headboard creates a 60 (remarkable) simple setup, and it takes about five minutes to assemble with no tools. “This furniture 61 (make) without veneers(飾面),” he says. “I like that you can see the wood grains, the knots, and the natural imperfections in the product.”
To maintain a consistent horizon line, Bush would arrange two 4x3 storage units in 62 U-shape around three walls opposite the bed. 63 (allow) for infinite artful displays, the storage units’ open drawers can be added or removed to create endless customizations that will never look 64 (date). “These pieces aren't going to recall a certain day and age,” he says. “In 10, 15, 20 years from now, these pieces 65 (be) timelessly in fashion.”

閱讀下面材料，根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
I was nominated (提名) for our school’s debate team. I jumped at the chance. When I got home that day, I began to fill out the application form, trying hard to prove how I met all the team’s criteria: strong communication skills, teamwork, and a good understanding of current events.
The next day, I handed in my application and waited with eagerness. I was on tenterhooks (如坐針氈) , anticipation building up with each tick of the clock.
Two weeks went by, and I received a letter from the school about the debate team, which began with “I’m sorry to…”. As soon as the school bus let me off that afternoon, I raced into the house. My mother was typing at the computer.
“Mom,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper, “I didn’t make the debate team.”
She looked up, a smile playing on her lips, thinking I was joking, and playfully reached out to high-five me. But the tears in my eyes told a different story.
“No, really, I wasn’t picked,” I told her, handing her the letter.
Her smile faded, replaced by a look of genuine concern. “Oh, sweetheart, I’m sorry,” she said, surprised. “There must be some mistake.” She called the debate team advisor, but he confirmed there were no mistakes and the decision was final. Hearing that, I broke down and burst out crying.
The rejection stung (刺痛) me, especially when I saw friends celebrating their acceptance. I felt cheated, questioning the fairness of the process. In my view, some selected didn’t deserve it as much as I did. Bitterness crept (潛入) into my words as I complained.
“I’m the best fit for the team,” I protested.
“See, Jenny, complaining won’t get you on the team.” Mom gave me a serious look.
注意：
1. 續(xù)寫詞數應為150左右；
2. 請按如下格式在答題卡的相應位置作答。
I stared at Mom and listened eagerly.

W: Oh, really Tell me all about it.
M: It was quite a challenge. The poor thing was terrified and wouldn’t come down. I had to get a ladder from my neighbor but, even then, it took some time to get the cat to trust me. Finally, after a bit of patience, I managed to reach it and bring it down safely.
W: That’s so kind of you. It sounds like quite an adventure.

W: I know. But look at all of us fans together, cheering on our team from the stands. We can cheer our team to victory.
M: I hope so. It’s still a draw now. But if the coach doesn’t switch some players on the field, we’ll definitely lose.

W: Sounds great. But I can imagine it’s not all plain sailing. Any challenges you’ve had to face
M: Oh yes. Managing loads of assignments and exams can be quite stressful. And the most serious problem is the financial issue. My part-time job barely covers all my expenses, so budgeting has been a real struggle.
W: I can see how that can be tough. Where do you usually study
M: I mostly study in the university library. It’s a quiet and well-equipped place, perfect for focusing.
W: When do you usually find time to relax
M: Honestly, most of my free time is taken up by my part-time job or studying. I try to catch some relaxation time at the weekend by hanging out with friends or going for a long walk in the nearby park.

It’s quite incredible how a simple hobby can turn into a fulfilling and successful career. I want to share my journey with you, starting from my love for photography. I used to take pictures of landscapes and people during my free time. It was my way of capturing life’s beautiful moments and expressing my creativity. Little did I expect that this passion would lead to a career. Over time, I improved my skills by experimenting with various techniques and attending photography workshops. Friends and family began to notice my talent and asked me to photograph their events. This was the turning point. I started doing small jobs like capturing(拍攝) weddings, parties, and special moments. Word of mouth quickly spread, and soon, I was in demand as a photographer. As my client base expanded, so did my confidence and ambition. I realized I could turn my hobby into a full-time career. However, this journey had its challenges. The pressure of delivering perfect photos, the irregular income, and the competition in the photography world tested my patience. Now, I’ve established my own photography business, specializing in portrait(肖像) photography. I’ve traveled to beautiful places, met wonderful people, and captured countless unforgettable moments. My future plans include exploring new types of photography, teaching ambitious photographers, and continuing to find new ways to tell domestic stories through my camera.

【導語】這是一篇應用文。文章主要介紹了四種水果類型的人格的特點。
21．細節(jié)理解題。根據Mango部分中“They love variety because they tend to be easily distracted and naturally rule breakers. (他們喜歡變化，因為他們很容易分心，天生就會打破常規(guī))”以及Lemon部分中“But too many rules can also be frustrating. (但是太多的規(guī)則也會讓其沮喪)”可知，芒果型人格和檸檬型人格的人都不喜歡被過多的規(guī)定所限制。故選D。
22．細節(jié)理解題。根據Banana部分中“Banana types enjoy peace and shy away from conflicts.(香蕉型的人喜歡和平，回避沖突)”可知，南希，一個耐心的員工，優(yōu)先考慮和諧的關系是香蕉型人格。故選C。
23．推理判斷題。根據第一段“When identifying personality types, I like to talk in terms of fruit. Nobody is just one fruit, but we all have a preference. And we tend to emphasize our top two, especially under pressure. Here are some fruit personalities and how best to deal with them.(在識別人格類型時，我喜歡用水果來描述。沒有人只是一種水果，但我們都有自己的偏好。我們傾向于強調我們的前兩個，尤其是在壓力下。以下是一些水果的個性，以及如何最好地處理它們)”結合文章主要介紹了四種水果類型的人格的特點。可知，這篇文章可能出現(xiàn)在心理學雜志上。故選B。

【導語】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了Sarah Toumi的成長經歷及其為對抗沙漠化、保護突尼斯農田所做出的努力，包括成立Acacias for All項目，種植樹木以維護生態(tài)平衡，同時也提及了她的個人愿景和項目的發(fā)展影響。
24．推理判斷題。根據文章第一段“As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children. (作為一個在法國長大的年輕女孩，Sarah Toumi夢想成為一名能夠讓世界變得更美好的領導者。從九歲起，她就在假期陪伴Tunisian父親前往他在該國東部的出生地，這喚醒了她幫助他人的熱情。在那里，她為孩子們組織了家庭作業(yè)俱樂部和活動。)”可知，Toumi在Tunisian的假期旅行激發(fā)了她幫助他人的熱情。故選A。
25．細節(jié)理解題。根據文章第二段中的“A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (平均降雨量的減少和干旱嚴重程度的增加導致突尼斯大約75%的農業(yè)用地受到荒漠化的威脅。)”可知，導致突尼斯農田沙漠化的主因是降水量減少。故選C。
26．推理判斷題。根據文章第四段“In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.” (2012年，Toumi繼續(xù)她與沙漠作戰(zhàn)的夢想。她搬到了突尼斯，建立了一個名為“Acacias for All”的項目，將她的可持續(xù)農業(yè)理念付諸行動。“我想向農村地區(qū)的年輕人展示，他們可以在自己所在的地方創(chuàng)造機會。沒有人比那些生活在沒有水的地方的人更能理解荒漠化和氣候變化的影響。”)”和第五段中“Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. (Toumi估計需要大約300萬棵金合歡樹來保護Tunisia的農田。)”可知，Toumi建立Acacias for All的目的是為了推廣保護他們農田的行動。故選B。
27．主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是由文章第二段“Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification (沙漠化). “Within10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. (圖米親眼目睹了沙漠化的破壞性影響。“在10年內，富裕的農民變得更窮，再過10年，他們將變窮。我想阻止撒哈拉沙漠的發(fā)展。”平均降雨量的減少和干旱嚴重程度的增加導致突尼斯大約75%的農業(yè)用地受到荒漠化的威脅。)”可知，文章主要講述了Sarah Toumi為阻止沙漠化進程所做的努力，包括改變農業(yè)實踐、種植金合歡樹等，旨在保護突尼斯的農田免受沙漠化威脅。因此，“Holding back the Sahara (阻擋Sahara)”最能概括文章主題。故選C。
28．B 29．A 30．A 31．D
【導語】本文是一篇說明文，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)兒童睡眠不足可能對其大腦發(fā)展有長期負面影響，并建議重視孩子的充足睡眠。
28．細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段段尾的“Up until now, no studies have examined the permanent impact of sleep shortage on the neurocognitive development of pre-teens.(到目前為止，還沒有研究調查睡眠不足對青少年前神經認知發(fā)展的永久影響。)”以及第四段段首的“This is the first finding to demonstrate the potential long-term impact of lack of sleep on neurocognitive development in children.(這是第一個證明睡眠不足可能對兒童神經認知發(fā)展產生潛在長期影響的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)。)”可知，研究的目的是為了考察長期睡眠不足的影響。故選B項。
29．推理判斷題。根據第四段中的“But additional studies are needed to confirm the finding and to see whether any interventions can improve sleep habits and reverse the neurological deficits according to Dr. Wang and his colleagues.(但是還需要額外的研究來確認這一發(fā)現(xiàn)，并看看是否有任何干預措施可以改善睡眠習慣并逆轉神經缺陷。)”可知，進一步的研究可能會集中在干預措施的有效性上。故選A項。
30．細節(jié)理解題。根據倒數第二段中的“Their tips include making sufficient sleep a family priority, sticking with a fixed sleep routine, encouraging exercise during the day, limiting screen time and eliminating screens completely an hour before bed.(他們的建議包括把充足的睡眠作為家庭的首要任務，堅持固定的睡眠習慣，鼓勵白天鍛煉，限制看屏幕的時間，并在睡前一小時內完全消除看屏幕的時間。)”可知，建議促進兒童良好睡眠習慣的做法包括固定的睡眠時間表和睡前完全消除看屏幕的時間。故選A項。
31．主旨大意題。根據最后一段中的“This is a crucial study finding that points to the importance of doing long-term studies on the developing child’s brain,(這是一個關鍵的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，指出了對發(fā)育中兒童大腦進行長期研究的重要性。)”可知，最后一段主要討論了該研究的意義。故選D項。
32．A 33．C 34．B 35．D
【導語】本文為說明文。文章主要探討了ALife是否也在不斷地進化的問題。
32．推理判斷題。根據第三段“As much as many ALifers hate emphasizing their research’s applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs. (盡管許多ALifer討厭強調他們研究的應用，但創(chuàng)造人工生命的嘗試可能會有實際的回報)”可知，作者認為創(chuàng)造人工生命的嘗試是會有回報的；再結合第二段“So far no one has convincingly made artificial life. This track record makes ALife a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field’s doubtful scientific value. Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints. Asking about “the point” of ALife might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says. “The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything.” Alan says. “Some people ask me, ‘So what’s the worth of artificial life ’ Do you ever think, ‘What is the worth of your grandmother ’”(到目前為止，還沒有人能令人信服地制造出人工生命。這一記錄使生命科學成為批評的成熟目標，比如對該領域可疑科學價值的聲明。復雜性科學家艾倫 史密斯厭倦了這樣的抱怨。他說，詢問ALife的“意義”可能完全沒有抓住要點。“一個生命系統(tǒng)的存在與任何東西的使用無關。”Alan說。“有人問我，‘那么人工生命的價值是什么？’你有沒有想過，‘你祖母的價值是多少？’”)”可推知，因為還沒有人能令人信服地制造出人工生命，才導致使生命科學成為批評（認為其沒有科學價值）的成熟目標，作者認為這是不合理的，所以后文引用了Alan Smith的話語對這種觀點進行反駁，即關于Alan Smith對ALife的辯護，作者表示支持。故選A。
33．詞句猜測題。根據劃線詞上文“Artificial intelligence may be considered ALife’s cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution (演化).(人工智能可能被認為是ALife的表親，因為這兩個領域的研究人員都被一個叫做開放進化的概念enamored)”可知，人工智能可能被認為是ALife的表親，說明人工智能和ALife二者間有共同之處，可推測是因為這兩個領域的研究人員都被一個叫做開放進化的概念所吸引，所以才有了這種觀點。故劃線詞意為“吸引”。故選C。
34．推理判斷題。根據第三段“Artificial intelligence may be considered ALife’s cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution (演化).(人工智能可能被認為是ALife的表親，因為這兩個領域的研究人員都被一個叫做開放進化的概念所吸引)”可知，ALife和AI有一個共同的特點。故選B。
35．主旨大意題。根據最后一段“They may apply universally to all acts of evolution. Ultimately ALife may be nothing special. But even this dismissal suggests something: perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of ALife will prove unavoidable.(它們可能普遍適用于所有進化行為。最終，ALife可能沒有什么特別的。但即使是這種否定也表明了一些事情：也許，就像整個宇宙中的生命本身一樣，ALife的崛起將被證明是不可避免的)”結合文章主要探討了ALife是否也在不斷地進化。D選項“生命在進化。創(chuàng)造ALife的嘗試也能進化嗎？”是最合適的標題。故選D。

【分析】本文是一篇議論文。文章描寫了流媒體的發(fā)展對于現(xiàn)如今音樂人的影響。
36．根據后文“While this is great for fans, who now have access to millions of songs at the flick of a touchscreen, it has shattered the traditional model of how an artist manages his or her career.（雖然這對歌迷來說是件好事，他們現(xiàn)在只需輕觸觸摸屏就可以訪問數百萬首歌曲，但它打破了藝術家管理自己職業(yè)生涯的傳統(tǒng)模式。）”可猜測，劃線句可描寫這些應用程序的功能特點是如何打破藝術家管理自己職業(yè)生涯的傳統(tǒng)模式的。G選項“These apps are available either as free versions or as monthly subscription services.”（這些應用程序要么提供免費版本，要么提供月度訂閱服務。）符合題意，且選項中的these apps呼應上文的Internet apps。故選G項。
37．根據前文“The main problem facing many musicians is that payments-per-stream of a song are much lower than what an artist would receive from a download.（許多音樂家面臨的主要問題是，每流歌曲的付費遠遠低于藝術家從下載中獲得的費用。）”以及下文“In November of 2014, award-winning musician Taylor Swift pulled her entire music catalog from Spotify, a popular streaming app, claiming that their business model suggests that music does not hold much worth.”（2014年11月，獲獎音樂家泰勒·斯威夫特(Taylor Swift)從流行流媒體應用Spotify下架了她的全部音樂目錄，聲稱Spotify的商業(yè)模式表明音樂沒有多少價值。）可猜測，有些音樂家已經針對這個問題采取行動。C選項“Some big-name artists have called attention to the issue.”（一些大牌藝術家已經引起了人們對這個問題的關注。）符合題意，下文提到的Taylor Swift就是big-name artists中的一個。故選C項。
38．根據下文“They claim that it offers smaller artists a chance for their music to get heard by a wider audience.（他們聲稱這為小藝術家提供了一個機會，讓他們的音樂被更廣泛的觀眾聽到。）”可知，也有其他人贊同流媒體的發(fā)展。A選項“Others have welcomed the idea of streaming music.”（其他人則對流媒體音樂的想法表示歡迎。）符合題意，故選A項。
39．根據上文“Regardless of what artists may think about this change in the music industry, there’s no arguing that they need to adapt in order to make money.（不管藝術家們對音樂行業(yè)的這種變化有什么看法，毫無疑問，為了賺錢，他們需要適應。）”以及下文“Corporate sponsorship can be a risky option for musicians.（對音樂家來說，企業(yè)贊助可能是一個冒險的選擇。）”可知，這個變化與音樂家和企業(yè)贊助有關系。F選項“One major shift is the growth in partnership between artists and businesses.”（一個主要的變化是藝術家和企業(yè)之間的合作關系的增長。）符合題意，故選F項。
40．根據下文“Artists must develop an image that appeals to their fans in order to remain unique and authentic, or they risk striking the wrong chord, which could leave them struggling to sustain careers in this new business landscape.（為了保持獨特和真實，藝術家們必須塑造出能吸引粉絲的形象，否則他們就有可能引起錯誤的共鳴，這可能會讓他們在新的商業(yè)環(huán)境下難以維持職業(yè)生涯。）”可知，保持良好形象很重要也很困難。E選項“Maintaining a fine image while working on a career is certainly tricky.”（在事業(yè)上保持良好的形象當然是很棘手的。）符合題意，故選E項。
這是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了女性在長距離游泳和其他一些體育競技項目中表現(xiàn)出的優(yōu)勢，以及奧運會在性別平等方面所做的努力和仍然存在的問題。本題需要根據原文和題目要求選出每道小題正確的選項。

47．此空所在句意為“事實上，女性在各種競技項目中的表現(xiàn)可以優(yōu)于或與男性_____”。distinctly意為“明顯地”；respectively意為“分別地”；comparably意為“相當地，可比較地”；similarly意為“相似地”。將這四個詞分別填入句子空白處，similarly可使本句語義通順，表示女性和男性在這些項目中的表現(xiàn)相當，符合本句語境，其他選項的意思都不符合本句語境，均可排除。因此，本小題的正確答案是：D．similarly。

50．此空所在句意為“國際射擊運動聯(lián)合會運動員委員會主席卡西奧·里佩爾說，雖然男性的肌肉往往使他們的耐力更強，但女性的體重較低，重心較_____，平均而言，這讓她們有更好的平衡控制能力”。weight意為“重量”；shape意為“形狀”；height意為“高度”；gravity意為“重力”。根據常識可知，人體的重心高度和體重以及身體形狀都有關系，但前文已經提到了“體重較低”，所以這里主要說的是身體形狀對重心的影響，且后文也提到了“更好的平衡控制能力”，因此gravity符合本句語境，其他選項的意思都不符合本句語境，均可排除。因此，本小題的正確答案是：D．gravity。
51．此空所在句意為“巴黎奧運會是第一次有相等數量的女性_____的奧運會”。performers意為“表演者”；athletes意為“運動員”；participants意為“參與者”；spectators意為“觀眾”。根據前文“女性在長距離游泳、超長跑、射擊運動等各種競技項目中都有出色的表現(xiàn)”可知，這里表示巴黎奧運會是第一次有相等數量的女性運動員的奧運會，故athletes符合本句語境，其他選項的意思都不符合本句語境，均可排除。因此，本小題的正確答案是：B．athletes。

48．參考范文：
I stared at Mom and listened eagerly. She shared her own stories of failure and disappointment and how she turned them into opportunities for growth. “Every rejection is a lesson,” she said. With her guidance, I spent the next three months improving my skills. I practiced debates, read extensively to stay updated on current events, and sought feedback from teachers and peers. I even started a debate club after school to gain more experience.
I did make it when a second chance came 3 months later. When the team needed an extra member for an upcoming tournament, they considered my dedication and improvement. This time, I was ready. My performance in the tryouts was confident and well-prepared. Joining the team was a sweet victory, but the real win was in the resilience I had built and the lessons I had learned along the way. My mother’s wisdom had steered me through a tough time, and I was grateful for the journey that had made me a better debater and a stronger person.
【導語】本文以人物為線索展開。短文講述主角最初因為落選辯論隊受到了打擊，但在母親的鼓勵下，她選擇利用這次挫折作為提升自我的機會，通過參加辯論研討和自我練習來改進自己的技能。最終，機會再次來臨，她用準備和信心證明了自己，最終成功加入辯論隊。
【詳解】1.段落續(xù)寫：
