【1题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Ourworkshopstressesstand-upcomedywritingandperforming—thetwokeycomponentsofstand-upcomedy.(我们的研讨班强调单口喜剧的写作和表演，这是单口喜剧的两个关键组成部分。)”可知，研讨班专注于写作和表演。故选B项。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据Fees部分中“Ifyouareafirsttimestudent:$410.Ifyouareareturningstudent:$350.(如果你是新生：410美元。如果你是老生：350美元。)”可知，老生可以节省60美元的学费。故选C项。【3题详解】推理判断题。根据Yourinstructor:BeckyVeduccio部分中“Beckyhasbeenaprofessionalcomedian,writerandactressforover15years.Shehasperformedstand-upcomedyinNewYork,LosAngeles,LasVegasandLondon.Besides,shehasappearedincommercials,theaterandfeaturefilms.Andshecompetedinthe2018seasonofAmerica’sGotTalent.(贝基是一个专业的喜剧演员，作家和演员超过15年。她曾在纽约、洛杉矶、拉斯维加斯和伦敦表演单口喜剧。此外，她还出演过广告、戏剧和故事片。她参加了2018年的美国达人秀。)”和“HerfilmworksincludeReturntoMe,MaidinManhattanandRandomHearts.(她的电影作品包括《回到我身边》、《曼哈顿少女》和《随机的心》。)”可推知，Becky是一位经验丰富的演员。故选A项。BIwasdrivingwhenmyphonealertedmetoanewemail.Filledwitheageranticipation,Ipulledover,turnedonmyhazardlights,andopenedit.MyemotionsquicklychangedasIlearned,forthesixthandfinaltime,thatIhadbeendeniedapromotiontofullprofessor.Myinstitutiondidn’tseemtovaluewhatIbroughttothetable.ButwhenItoldmyfamilythatnight,mychildrenofferedasurprisinglypositiveresponse.TheywereexcitedtoseewhatIwasgoingtodonext,theysaid.TheyapparentlyknewlongbeforeIdidthatlosingmybidforapromotionwouldturnouttobethebestthingthatcouldhavehappenedforme.Thishadbeenthefinalstepinalongprocessspanning15monthsandinvolvingsomucheffort.Ihadstartedbystudyingsuccessfulpromotionbidsandaskingseniorscholarsforfrankdiscussionsaboutmyreadiness.Ihadcarefullypreparedmyapplicationpacket,summarizingeverythingIhadachievedinmycareer.Formorethanayear,Ihadspenthourseverydaytryingtoprovemyworthtomyuniversity.Tomysurprise,havingafinalanswerbroughtawelcomesenseofclosure.Asafirststeptowardhealing,Idecidedtoprioritizemyownvaluesandfollowmyowninternalcompass.Idisconnectedfrompeopleinmylifewhoviolatedmyvalues,cultivatedmyrelationshipswiththosewhosharemyprioritiesandbringoutthebestinme,andspentmoretimewithmyfamily.Ifoundedanonprofitthathelpsfirst-generationandlow-incomestudentsandyoungprofessionalsadvanceintheworkforcewhileservingtheircommunity.Theinitiativehadlong

”可知，作者满怀期待打开邮件，却发现自己再一次被拒绝，由此可推知，作者读完邮件之后的心情应该是失望的和悲伤的。故选D。【5题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Thishadbeenthefinalstepinalongprocessspanning15monthsandinvolvingsomucheffort.Ihadstartedbystudyingsuccessfulpromotionbidsandaskingseniorscholarsforfrankdiscussionsaboutmyreadiness.Ihadcarefullypreparedmyapplicationpacket,summarizingeverythingIhadachievedinmycareer.Formorethanayear,Ihadspenthourseverydaytryingtoprovemyworthtomyuniversity.(这是一个长达15个月的漫长过程的最后一步，涉及了如此多的努力。我从研究成功的晋升案例开始，并请资深学者坦率地讨论我的准备情况。我仔细准备了我的申请材料，总结了我在职业生涯中取得的所有成就。在一年多的时间里，我每天都花几个小时来证明我对学校的价值。)”可知，第二段主要讲述了作者做了怎样的准备。故选B。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Theinitiativehadlongbeenadreamofmine,butIneverpursueditbecausetypicalacademichiringandpromotiondon’trewardsuchefforts.Now,suchconsiderationswerenolongermyNorthStar.(这个计划一直是我的梦想，但我从未追求过，因为典型的学术招聘和晋升不会奖励这种努力。现在，这样的考虑不再是我的北极星。)”和文章最后一段“Imayhavelostmybidforabigpromotion,butintheend,itbroughtmetotherightplace.(我可能失去了一次大的晋升机会，但最终，它把我带到了正确的地方。)”可推知，作者可能会同意成功不仅仅是一个头衔或地位。故选A。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Fivemonthsafterthatemailfromtopleadership,Ifoundmyselfinthecaragain,experiencinganothercareer-definingmoment.Imayhavelostmybidforabigpromotion,butintheend,itbroughtmetotherightplace.(收到那封来自高层领导的电子邮件五个月后，我发现自己又坐在车里，经历了另一个职业生涯的决定性时刻。我可能失去了一次大的晋升机会，但最终，它把我带到了正确的地方。)”和全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者在自己多次申请正教授被拒后，思想方面发生了转变，以及最后找到另一份更好的工作的经历。由此可知，C项：Acareersetbackbecomesagreatopportunity(事业上的挫折会变成一次绝好的机会)是最好的标题。故选C。CLikemanyteenagers,Iwasoncetroubledbyanxietyanddissatisfaction-feelingsthatmyparentsoftenmetwithpuzzlementratherthansympathy.Theywerealreadyintheir50s,andhavinggrownupinpostwarBritain,theystruggledtounderstandthesourcesofmydiscontentment.“Theproblemwithyourgenerationisthatyoualwaysdesiretobehappy.”mymotheroncesaid.Iwaspuzzled.Surelyhappinesswasthepurposeofliving,andweshouldsparenoeffortstoachieveitatevery

【答案】8.B9.A10.C11.B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者分享了自己对母亲的观点“年轻一代的问题在于总是期待快乐”，由疑惑到赞同的转变过程。作者还指出，负面情绪是生活必不可少的一部分，我们需要做的是放松心态，或许能在期待最少的时候获得最想要的满足。【8题详解】词句猜测题。根据第二段“'Theproblemwithyourgenerationisthatyoualwaysdesiretobehappy.'mymotheroncesaid.Iwaspuzzled.(“你们这一代人的问题在于，你们总是渴望快乐。”我母亲曾经说。我很困惑。)”可知，作者当时并不赞同母亲的话。而根据前文“ButIhavenoticedashiftinthinking”可知，作者的观念发生了改变，也就是作者认同了母亲的看法，觉得母亲的话是正确的。所以spoton为“正确的”之意。故选B。【9题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Overthepast10years,numerousstudieshaveshownthatourobsession(痴迷)withhappinessandhighpersonalconfidencemaybemakinguslesscontentwithourlives,andlesseffectiveatreachingouractualgoals.(在过去的10年里，大量的研究表明，我们对幸福的痴迷和高度的个人自信可能会让我们对自己的生活不满意，也会降低我们实现实际目标的效率。)”以及第四段“Whilegreatercontentmentisachievable,don’texpectmiracle,andacceptthatnomatterhowhardyoutry,feelingoffrustrationandunhappinesswillappearfromtimetotime.(虽然更大的满足感是可以实现的，但不要期待奇迹，要接受无论你多么努力尝试，挫败感和不快感还是会时不时地出现。)”可推断，过高的期待会让我们不开心。故选A。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“Whenwefeelsad,it’softenbecausewehavelearnedsomethingpainfulbutimportant,whilestresscanmotivateyoutomakesomechangestoyourlife.Thelastthingyoushoulddoistoblameyourselvesforoccasionallyfeelingbadwhenplansdon’tworkout.(当我们感到悲伤时，通常是因为我们学到了一些痛苦但重要的东西，而压力可以激励你对你的生活做出一些改变。你最不应该做的事情就是当计划没有实现的时候，因为偶尔感觉不好而责备自己。)”可推断，作者认为我们无需内疚，因为我们从失败中学到了很多。故选C。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Asmymothertriedtoteachmeallthoseyearsago,easethepressureoffyourself.andyoumayfindthatcontentmentarriveswhenyou’releastexpectingit.(就像我母亲多年前教我的那样，减轻自己的压力。你可能会发现满足感会在你最意想不到的时候到来。) ”及全文可知，作者分享了自己对母亲的观点“年轻一代的问题在于总是期待快乐”，由疑惑到赞同的转变过程。作者还指出，负面情绪是生活必不可少的一部分，我们需要做的是放松心态，或许能在期待最少的时候获得最想要的满足。所以“Whyit’stimetostopfightingforhappiness?(为什么是时候停止为幸福而奋斗了?)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。DAnartificialintelligencecandecode(解码)wordsandsentencesfrombrainactivitywithsurprising—thoughstilllimited—accuracy.Usingonlyafewsecondsofbrainactivitydata,theAIguesseswhatapersonhasheard.Itliststhecorrectanswerinitstop10possibilitiesupto73percentofthetime,researchersfoundinastudy.DevelopedattheparentcompanyofFacebook,Meta,theAIcouldeventuallybeusedtohelpthousandsofpeoplearoundtheworldunabletocommunicatethroughspeech,typingorgestures,researchersreportonAugust25atarXiv.org.Mostexistingtechnologiestohelpsuchpatientscommunicaterequireriskybrainsurgeriestoimplantelectrodes.Thisnewapproach“couldprovideapracticalpathtohelppatientswithouttheuseofinvasivemethods,”saysneuroscientistJean-RémiKing,aMetaAIresearcherinParis.Kingandhiscolleaguestrainedacomputationaltooltodetectwordsandsentenceson56,000hoursofspeechrecordingsfrom53languages.Thetool,alsoknownasalanguagemodel,learnedhowtorecognizespecificfeaturesoflanguage.Withthehelpofacomputationalmethod,theteamtriedtodecodewhatparticipantshadheardusingjustthreesecondsofbrainactivitydatafromeachperson.TheteaminstructedtheAItomatchthespeechsoundsfromthestoryrecordingstopatternsofbrainactivitythattheAIcomputedascorrespondingtowhatpeoplewerehearing.Itthenmadepredictionsaboutwhatthepersonmighthavebeenhearingduringthatshorttime,givenmorethan1,000possibilities.ThecorrectanswerwasintheAI’stop10guessesupto73percentofthetime,theresearchersfound.Thenewstudyis“decodingofspeechperception,notproduction,”Kingnotes.Thoughspeechproductionistheultimategoal,fornow,“we’requitealongwayaway.”12.Whatisthemainideaofparagraph1?A.Theprincipleofhumanbrainactivity.B.Thelimitationofhumanbrainactivity.C.Thedefinitionoftheartificialintelligence.D.Thenewfunctionoftheartificialintelligence.13.WhommighttheAIbebeneficialto?A.Peopleunabletohear.B.Peoplewhocan’tmovearound.

“哺乳动物也有类似的趋势，老鼠、鼩鼱和蝙蝠进化出更大的耳朵、尾巴、腿和翅膀”符合语境，是动物应对天气变化外貌发生变化的例子。故选G项。【18题详解】根据上文“‘Allen’srule’,namedforJoelAsaphAllen,whosuggesteditin1877,holdsthatwarm-blooded-animalsinhotplacestendtohavelargerappendages(附属物)thanthoseinlesshotregions.(“艾伦法则”是以JoelAsaphAllen的名字命名的，他在1877年提出了这一法则，认为在炎热地区的温血动物往往比在不那么炎热地区的动物有更大的附属物)”可知，炎热地区的温血动物往往长有更大的附属物，这是动物对气候的一种适应，选项F“这种适应性增加了动物相对于其身体体积的表面积，帮助它释放多余的热量。”解释了这种现象的产生原因。下文“Beingrichlyfilledwithbloodvessels,andnotcoveredbyfeathers,beaksmakeanidealplaceforbirdstogetridofheat.Fennecfoxes,meanwhile,whicharenativetotheSaharaDesert,havestrikinglylargeears,especiallycomparedwiththeirArcticcousins.(喙拥有丰富的血管，没有绝缘羽毛覆盖，是鸟类散热的理想场所。又比如，与它们的北极近亲相比，原产于撒哈拉沙漠的芬内克狐狸有着惊人的大耳朵)”举例说明动物的这种适应性。上下文通顺合理。故选F项。【19题详解】根据下文“Theteamcombineddatafromdifferentspeciesindifferentplaces.(她的团队综合了来自不同地方不同物种的数据)”可知，团队综合了更多地方的数据，选项A“然而，从更大的角度来看，形式更清晰。”说明观察更多会更清楚地看到这种模式，符合语境，上下文通顺合理。故选A项。【20题详解】根据下文“Thatmaychangeaswarmingaccelerates.Sinceanyevolutionaryadaptationcomeswithtrade-offs(妥协),itisunclearhowfartheprocessmightgo.(随着气候变暖的加速，这种情况可能会改变。由于任何进化适应都会进行利弊权衡，因此尚不清楚这一过程会走多远)”可知，未来这种情况的变化，that指代上文提到的情况，选项B“至少就目前而言，增幅很小，从未超过10%。”说明现在的变化情况，上下文合理通顺，下文预测这种情况的发展,，且下文中的“Thatmaychange”指代选项B中的增长。故选B项。第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Fiveyearsago,afriendaskedmetolookafterhiscatwhilehewentonholiday,andIrealizedtheideahadpotentialonabiggerscale.SoImovedtoLondonanddecidedto____21____catsitting.Forme,catsittingisabout____22____twogroupsofpeoplewhoneedwhattheothercanoffer.Igettostayinpeople’s____23____withoutrentwhilethey’reonholiday.Theownersget____24____catsitting.Italso
