I grew up poor. We had little money, but plenty of love and attention. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, they could still afford a dream. My dream was athletics.
By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football. My high school coach was Ollie Jarvis. He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction（信念）.
One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket — certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn’t be playing. I was afraid of this, but my mother said, “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.”
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be. “Your playing days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them,” he said.
I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why I dream of buying my mom a house.
“How much are you going to make at this job, son ” he demanded.
“Three point twenty-five an hour,” I replied.
“Well,” he asked, “is $3. 25 an hour the price of a dream ”
That question exposed the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie-league ball, and offered a $20, 000 contract. I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for $1.7 million, and bought my mother my dream house.
24. Why was the writer grateful to Coach Jarvis
A. Because Coach Jarvis made him set a goal.
B. Because Coach Jarvis supplied him with new clothes.
C. Because Coach Jarvis gave him financial support.
D. Because Coach Jarvis helped him show conviction.
25. What did the writer want to do when he was offered a job
A. Balance summer baseball and the work schedule.
B. Refuse the job offer for summer baseball.
C. Give up summer baseball for the job.
D. Ask his coach Jarvis for advice.
26. Which of the following can replace the underlined part “If you make your bed, you have to lie in it.” in paragraph 4
A. Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.
B. You must eat the bitter fruit of your own making.
C. You must rely on yourself first, then others.
D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
27. What did the writer do at the end of the story
A. He succeeded as a sportsman.
B. He failed to buy his mother a house.
C. He became a successful businessman.
D. He made some money in the summer job.
C
The entire country struggled with the unprecedented heat of the July 2022 heatwave, but for the disabled, the heat hit even harder. The climate crisis is a threat to everyone’s health, but according to a report in 2021, people with disabilities are more delicate to the extreme weather events and natural disasters that result from the climate crisis.
Professor Kristie Ebi of the Centre for Health at the University of Washington, described the topic of heatwaves and disabled people as being an important issue. “Groups at higher risk during periods of high temperature include people with chronic（慢性的）medical conditions, people who take certain medications that can reduce the ability of the body to sweat, and the “disabled”, notes Ebi, going on to describe the different threats that heatwaves pose for different types of disabilities. Ebi notes the difficulty people with mobility issues or blindness may have with accessing services, such as cooling shelters. Ebi also comments on the importance of making messaging on the dangers of high temperatures accessible to those with learning disabilities or to deaf people. “Some studies suggest higher rates of suicide and other mental health issues during heatwaves, requiring targeted help for those with mental disabilities,” she added.
Ailsa Speak, a disability and lifestyle blogger, experiences uncontrollable movements in the heat due to her cerebral palsy（脑瘫）. “As you can imagine, when my involuntary movements increase, I get even hotter. It’s just a painful circle really.”
In the absence of a concrete set of plans for people with disabilities during the climate crisis and extreme weather events, people with disabilities continue to be at increased risk of heat-related disease.
To prevent future death and destruction, the Climate Change Committee (CCC), an independent organization tackling climate change, advocates for adaptation planning, as the temperature is set to rise further due to the climate crisis. The CCC’s 2022 report on the health risks of overheating offers adaptation options to the government to ensure that buildings are fit for future climate change. Nevertheless, the publication does not offer specific advice about people with disabilities and overheating, which thus remains to be discussed promptly and thoroughly.
28. Which of the following would Professor Ebi most probably agree with
A. Heatwaves make people with chronic diseases suffer most.
B. The mentally disabled have no access to cooling shelter.
C. Some disabled people are ill-informed about the risks of heatwaves.
D. Mobility disability contributes to higher risk of suicide in the heatwaves.
29. Why does the author mention Ailsa Speak
A. To share a disabled blogger’s painful life.
B. To show what a terrible disease cerebral palsy is.
C. To prove the never-before-seen highs in temperature.
D. To illustrate the trouble the disabled have in the heat.
30. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to _________.
A. suggest methods of helping the disabled in heatwaves
B. stress the urgent need to care for the disabled in the heat
C. tell readers how severe the July 2022 heatwave was
D. introduce adaptation alternatives for future buildings
31. Where does this passage probably come from
A. A newspaper. B. A fiction. C. A biography. D. A chemical paper.
D
Human speech contains more than 2,000 different sounds, from the common “m” and “a” to the rare clicks of some southern African languages. But why are certain sounds more common than others A ground-breaking, five-year study shows that diet-related changes in human bite led to new speech sounds that are now found in half the world’s languages.
More than 30 years ago, the scholar Charles Hockett noted that speech sounds called labiodentals, such as “f” and “v”, were more common in the languages of societies that ate softer foods. Now a team of researchers led by Damián Blasi at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, has found how and why this trend arose.
They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth of ancient human adults were aligned（对齐）, making it hard to produce labiodentals, which are formed by touching the lower lip to the upper teeth. Later, our jaws changed to an overbite structure, making it easier to produce such sounds.
The team showed that this change in bite was connected with the development of agriculture in the Neolithic period. Food became easier to chew at this point. The jawbone didn’t have to do as much work and so didn’t grow to be so large.
Analyses of a language database also confirmed that there was an overall change in the sound of world languages after the Neolithic age, with the use of “f” and “v” increasing remarkably during the last few thousand years. These sounds are still not found in the languages of many hunter-gatherer people today.
This research overturns the popular view that all human speech sounds were present when human beings evolved around 300,000 years ago. “The set of speech sounds we use has not necessarily remained stable since the appearance of human beings, but rather the huge variety of speech sounds that we find today is the product of a complex interplay of things like biological change and cultural evolution,” said Steven Moran, a member of the research team.
32.Which aspect of the human speech sound does Damián Blasi’s research focus on
A. Its variety. B. Its development.
C. Its quantity. D. Its distribution.
33.Why was it difficult for ancient human adults to produce labiodentals
A. They had fewer upper teeth than lower teeth.
B. They could not open and close their lips easily.
C. Their jaws were not conveniently structured.
D. Their lower front teeth were not large enough.
34.What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. A reasonable doubt about the research process.
B. Potential application of the research findings.
C. A further explanation of the research methods.
D. Supporting evidence for the research results.
35.What does Steven Moran say about the set of human speech sounds
A. It is a complex and dynamic system.
B. It contributes much to cultural diversity.
C. It is key to effective communication.
D. It drives the evolution of human beings.

Physical activity does the body good, and there’s growing evidence that it helps the brain too. Researchers in the Netherlands report that children who get more exercise, whether at school or on their own, 71 to have higher GPAs and better scores on standardized tests. In a 72 of 14 studies that looked at physical activity and academic 73 , investigators found that the more children moved，the better their grades were in school, 74 in the basic subjects of math, English and reading.
The data will certainly fuel the ongoing debate over whether physical education classes should be cut as schools struggle to 75 on smaller budgets. The arguments against physical education have included concerns that gym time may be taking away from study time. With standardized test scores in the U.S. 76 in recent years, some administrators believe students need to spend more time in the classroom instead of on the playground. But as these findings show, exercise and academics may not be 77 exclusive. Physical activity can improve blood 78 to the brain, fueling memory, attention and creativity, which are 79 to learning. And exercise releases hormones that can improve 80 and relieve stress, which can also help learning. So while it may seem as if kids are just exercising their bodies when they are running around, they may actually be exercising their brains as well.

W: On September 16th, 2021, a group of “ordinary” people blasted off into space on the first space mission with no professional astronauts. The mission, called Inspiration 4, was the idea of a billionaire Jared Isaacman, who paid the company SpaceX to arrange the flight. He’s a pilot who has flown different kinds of airplanes. Mr. Isaacman decided to use the trip to raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Haley Arceneaux, 29, was a cancer patient at St. Jude when she was a child. Ms. Arceneaux works at St. Jude as a physician’s assistant, helping patients and assisting doctors. She is the youngest American to fly into orbit.
The capsule has room for four crew members. Mr. Isaacman’s company held a contest to fill one of the spots. The position was won by Dr. Sian Proctor, a college professor who was nearly chosen as a NASA astronaut in 2009. The Inspiration 4 mission orbited 360 miles (575 km) above the Earth. That was about 93 miles higher than the International Space Station.

D篇 BCDA
本文为说明文，主要讲述了人类语音的发展与农业的发展及其所带来的饮食结构的变化有着密不可分的关系。
32.B 事实细节题. 根据第一段最后一句中的 … diet-related changes in human bite led to new speech sounds … 和第二段最后一句中的 … how and why this trend arose. 可知 Damián Blasi 的研究与人类语音的发展变化有关。故D项正确。
33.C 事实细节题. 根据第三段第一句 They discovered that the upper and lower front teeth … by touching the lower lip to the upper teeth.可知，要发出唇齿音(produce labiodentals )，上牙需要触碰到下嘴唇，而古人类的上门牙和下门牙是对齐的，这种下颌骨结构让他们很难发出唇齿音，所以选C。
34.D 主旨大意题. 上文提到人类语音及牙齿咬合的变化与新石器时代 (the Neolithic age) 农业的发展有关，而第五段主要说明了“一项语言数据库的分析也证实，在新石器时代之后，世界语言的发音发生了全球性的变化”，因此第五段主要为上文的研究结果提供证据。本段第一句中的 confirm (证实) 是关键词。
35.A 推理判断题. 根据最后一段 The set of speech sounds we use has not necessarily remained stable … is the product of a complex interplay of things like biological change and cultural evolution 可知，人类的语音并不是一成不变的，而是一个复杂的动态变化、相互作用的系统。
