一、Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don’t think your fat cells won't notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat calls, reducing their ability to respond to insulin (胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term,this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), fatty liver disease and weight gain.
The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there’s“an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good,healthy body weight”says sleep expert Helene Emsellem,director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase,Maryland. (76) But Americans don’t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us,according to a report form the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night,on average.
So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young,thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night,” says Brady. Then ,a month later,they came back for four additional nights—but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit,researchers got a sample of their fat.(77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “I was very surprised to be honest,”he says.
Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “Fat cells are actually your friend,”he says.“They’re there to store lipids(血脂).”When lipids stay inside the cells,your body can utilize the fat when you’re exercising or sleeping or going about your day.“However,when fat cells start to become insulin resistant,the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream,” Brady says.
1、According to the passage,lack of the sleep for a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT______. 第一段最后一句
A、heart disease
B、weight gain
C、diabetes
D、liver disease
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据文章第一段最后一句“this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), fatty liver disease and weight gain.”可知,长期睡眠不足可能导致糖尿病、脂肪肝和体重增加,但没有提到心脏病。因此,选项A“心脏病”是不正确的。选项B“体重增加”、选项C“糖尿病”和选项D“肝病”都是文章中提到的可能由长期睡眠不足导致的问题。
2、The main idea of the third paragraph is__ .
A、how to write a medical research paper
B、how to avoid sleep loss
C、how the research was conducted
D、how to conduct a medical experiment
解析:
题目:第三段的大意是。
A:如何写医学研究论文
B:如何避免睡眠不足
C:研究是如何进行的
D:如何进行医学实验
3、What does the word “leach” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A、Leap
B、Lead.
C、Lead.
D、Leak.
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在文章最后一段中,提到“当脂肪细胞变得对胰岛素的响应减少时,会发生不好的事情。”接下来,作者说:“脂肪细胞实际上是你的朋友,它们在那里储存脂质。”当脂质留在细胞内时,身体可以在运动、睡眠或日常活动中利用这些脂肪。然而,当脂肪细胞开始变得对胰岛素有抵抗力时,脂质开始从脂肪细胞中渗出并进入血液。根据上下文,可以推断出“leach”在这里的意思是“渗出”,因此答案为D。
4、Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A、We will be in trouble if our fat cells become less responsive to insulin.
B、More and more studies are done to study the link between sleep and weight.
C、More than 20% of Americans are net getting enough sleep.

A:如果我们的脂肪细胞对胰岛素的反应减弱,我们就会有麻烦。
B:人们做了越来越多的研究来研究睡眠和体重之间的关系。
C:超过20%的美国人睡眠充足。
D:脂肪细胞帮助我们保持健康。
5、Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?
A、Poor Sleep May Lead to Too Much Stored Fat and Disease
B、Sleep Experts Had Exciting Findings in a Fat Study

B:睡眠专家在一项脂肪研究中有令人兴奋的发现
C:美国人的睡眠时间应该超过6个小时
D:如果脂肪细胞成为我们的朋友,坏事就会发生
Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
The top of the world is a wonderland. In winter, the temperature often falls to -30℉ and the sun never rises. The ocean is surrounded by frozen ground. There are few people or trees, but to polar bears, the Arctic (北极) is home.
(78) Polar bears have thick fur,big paws and other features that make them well
prepared for life in their tough environment. In fact,they need the Arctic sea ice for survival. But climate change is causing larger and larger areas of summer sea ice to melt (融化). Experts say that if warming patterns continue,the Arctic could be free of summer sea ice by 2050.They may cause two-thirds of the world’s 20,000 polar bears to be gone by then too.
Polar bears can’t survive for long on land. Seals are their main source of food. The only place where polar bears can hunt seals is on the ice.(79) Although these bears are strong swimmers, they are no match for lightning swift seals in the water. A polar bear has brilliantly clever strategies to overcome this disadvantage. In winter the bear waits motionless beside a seal’s breathing hole,which is a narrow tunnel through the ice. Often many hours pass before the seal comes up for air and the bear kills it with a powerful blow of its paw. In summer, the polar bears that live on land eat very little and wait for the sea ice to return.
With the sea ice forming later in the year and melting earlier,polar bears do not have enough opportunity to hunt and eat. Less sea ice makes it harder for the bears to catch the seals. The bears must swim longer distances between ice packs(大片浮冰),and they can’t always make it. The ice is also getting thinner. These conditions can cause polar-bear cubs to become separated form their mothers, who provide them with food.
Steven Amstrup is the chief scientist of Polar Bears International. The group aims to save the bears and their home. “The more people who see polar bears and understand their difficult situation, the better the chance we’ll alter our warming path in time to save them,” he says.

D:在海底。
8、The word “cubs” in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to______.
A、adults
B、babies
C、hunters
D、enemies
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在第四段中,提到“这些条件可能导致小北极熊与它们的母亲分离,而母亲会提供食物。”因此,可以推断出“cubs”指的是小北极熊,即婴儿。选项B“babies”意为“婴儿”,与原文中的描述相符。因此,正确答案为B。
9、According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A、Starving polar bears are increasingly coming into villages, where they may be
B、Polar bears can spend their entire lives on land if the sea ice melts completely.
C、Two-thirds of the world’s polar bears may disappear by 2050 as global warming

10、What’s the mission of Polar Bears International?
A、Saving energy.
B、Conducting scientific research.
C、Seeking international cooperation.
D、Saving polar bears and their home.
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:文章最后提到“The group aims to save the bears and their home.”,意思是“该组织旨在拯救北极熊和它们的家园”。因此,正确答案是“D. Saving polar bears and their home”(拯救北极熊和它们的家园)。
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate (有读写能力的)without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach,which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?
Of course there will always be learning by osmosis(耳濡目染) in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child’s moral literacy is strengthened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue(美德).
I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed(使融入) itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. (80) It's also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.
Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when a student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as,” that was really disrespectful and selfish of you! ” we draw out from them the required virtue: “ When you’re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use ? ”
11、Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?
A、Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years.'
B、The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.
C、Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.

Part IV Cloze (10%)
Life as a woman in the colonial (殖民的) America seems quite different from it is today. Women were considered inferior to men, a fact 56 in tradition, law, and religion. Their place was in the home, 57 they were to serve as devoted wives and mothers. They were therefore considered unfit to operate 58 political beings and unable to 59 the benefits of citizenship given to men. Very few women 60 a college education, secured a well-paid job, or pursued a fruitful career. Other than marrying well, they could do 61 to improve their economic status.
62 their secondary status, women 63 play a central role in developing, civilizing, and advancing the nation long before the United States gained its independence 64 Great Britain. During the colonial period, they made great contributions to family and community. They worked alongside their husbands 65 family survival demanded that chores (杂事) be shared by all. Women helped to sow, plant, and harvest crops. They 66 pigs and chickens, planted gardens and milked cows. This need for shared male and female labor 67 a constant theme (主题)as families moved to the frontier, where all family members' having to work 68 essential.
69 scholars still debate the nature of white women's standing during the colonial period, many of them admit that colonial women 70 some standing in their families and communities 71 their contributions were so essential. A woman might 72 chores in the home but also assist her husband in 73 a newspaper or a store. But this cooperative(合作的)approach did not translate into 74 rights for women; instead, it 75 the realities and uncertainties of colonial life.
56、( 56 )
A、rooted
B、rooting
C、caused
D、causing
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的描述,女性被认为低于男性,这一事实在传统、法律和宗教中都有体现。因此,空格中应该填入一个表示“根源”或“起因”的词语,而选项A中的“rooted”恰好符合这一要求,表示“根源”或“起因”。选项B的“rooting”表示“扎根”,不符合语境;选项C的“caused”表示“引起”,与题目中的描述不符;选项D的“causing”表示“引起”,也不符合语境。因此,正确答案是A。
57、( 57 )
A、that
B、which
C、when
D、where
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:句子中出现了“their place was in the home”和“they were to serve as devoted wives and mothers”,说明这是一个地点状语从句,需要用where来引导。而a that、which、when都不符合这个语境。因此,正确答案是D,即where。
58、( 58 )
A、for
B、as
C、in
D、along
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:本句表达的是"女性被认为不适合担任政治角色,不能享受男性公民的福利"的含义。选项中,"A for"表示"为了","C in"表示"在……之中","D along"表示"一起,沿着",只有"B as"表示"作为",符合句意。因此,正确答案为B。
59、( 59 )
A、view
B、start
C、enjoy
D、spread
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到“women were considered unfit to operate”,暗示她们无法享受某种行为,而选项中只有“享受”与“操作”搭配合理,因此答案为C。
60、( 60 )
A、trained
B、designed
C、acquired
D、studied
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中描述的是殖民时期美国女性的地位,她们被认为是低于男性的,且很少有机会接受高等教育、获得好工作或者追求有成就的职业。根据这些信息,选项C“acquired”表示“获得”,最符合题意,表示她们很少有机会获得(acquire)高等教育。其他选项如“trained”表示“训练”,不符合题意;“designed”表示“设计”,与题意不符;“studied”表示“学习”,虽然与题意有一定关联,但不如“acquired”准确。因此,正确答案是C。
61、( 61 )
A、fewer
B、few
C、less
D、little
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题干中的语境,题目要求选择一个适当的词来填空,而所给的四个选项分别是A fewer、B few、C less、D little。根据语境,题目中提到了“很少有女性接受大学教育”,所以应该使用表示“数量少”的形容词,而A fewer和B few都表示“数量较少”,但A fewer通常用于比较级,而B few则用于复数形式,不符合语境。C less表示“更少的”,也不符合语境。D little表示“数量少”,符合语境。因此,正确答案是D。
62、( 62 )

64、( 64 )
A、for
B、with
C、to
D、from
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到“Great Britain”,表明是从英国殖民时期到独立之前,因此用“from”表示从英国独立出来。选项D“from”符合题意,是正确答案。选项A“for”表示“为了”,选项B“with”表示“和”,选项C“to”表示“到”,都不符合题意。
65、( 65 )
A、since
B、before
C、although
D、while
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中提到“家庭生存要求所有杂事都要由大家共同分担”,因此可以推断出“while”表示“然而”或“同时”,符合语境。选项A“since”表示“自从”,选项B“before”表示“在……之前”,选项C“although”表示“尽管”,均不符合语境。因此,正确答案为D。
66、( 66 )
A、raised
B、rose
C、arose
D、aroused
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题干中描述的是殖民地时期的女性在家庭中帮助饲养家禽和种植作物,所以应该选择“raised”(饲养)这个词。其他选项的含义分别是:rose(上升)、arose(出现)、aroused(激发),都与题目要求不符。因此,答案为A。
67、( 67 )
A、hesitated
B、sacrificed
C、remained
D、changed
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,文中提到“家庭生存要求所有杂事都要分担”,因此“女性必须参与劳作”,选项C中的“remained”表示“仍然存在”,符合上下文语境。而选项A中的“hesitated”表示“犹豫”,选项B中的“sacrificed”表示“牺牲”,选项D中的“changed”表示“改变”,均不符合上下文语境。因此,正确答案为C。

A、improved
B、proved
C、swelled
D、founded
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:原文中提到,当家庭搬到边疆时,所有家庭成员都必须工作,这是必要的。因此,可以推断出女性也必须在家庭和社区中发挥作用,这证明了她们的地位。选项B中的“proved”意为“证明”,符合原文的意思。因此,正确答案为B。

70、( 70 )
A、switched
B、balanced
C、spared
D、achieved
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在题目中,描述的是殖民时期美国女性的地位。题目中明确提到“women were considered inferior to men”,即女性被认为低于男性。接着提到“in tradition, law, and religion”,即这种观念在传统、法律和宗教中都有体现。因此,女性被认为不适合参与政治,也无法享受公民的权利。在描述女性贡献时,提到她们帮助家庭生存,但没有提到她们有权利或地位。因此,正确答案是“achieved”(实现),表示女性在这个时期实现了一些地位,尽管仍然低于男性。选项A“switched”(交换)不符合题意;选项B“balanced”(平衡)也不符合,因为女性并没有达到与男性平等的地位;选项C“spared”(节省)与题意不符。因此,正确答案是D。
71、( 71 )
A、because
B、before
C、although
D、while
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:题目中需要填写的是表示因果关系的连词,而选项中只有A和D表示因果关系。D选项“while”表示“虽然,尽管”,与题目中的语境不符,而A选项“because”表示“因为”,符合题目中的语境,即“她们在家庭和社区中有一定的地位,因为她们做出了重要的贡献”。因此,正确答案是A。
72、( 72 )
A、thrive
B、perform
C、supply
D、process
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据题目中的描述,女性被认为是劣等的,她们的主要角色是在家里,作为忠实的妻子和母亲。因此,她们被认为不适合成为政治生物,也无法享受男性公民的好处。这说明在殖民地时期,女性在家里的角色主要是进行家务活动。根据这一信息,我们可以推断出空格(72)处应该填写“perform”,即执行家务活动。因此,选项B“perform”是最符合题意的答案。
73、( 73 )
A、reading
B、requiring
C、buying
D、running
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:在句子中提到了"a newspaper or a store",根据常识和语境,女性协助丈夫在报纸或商店工作,更可能是"running"这样的动作,而不是"reading"、"requiring"或"buying"。因此,选项D "running"是最合适的答案。
74、( 74 )
A、loyal
B、equal
C、upright
D、proud
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,女性被认为是次要的,她们的地位低于男性,因此她们不可能拥有与男性平等的权利。因此,她们的合作态度并没有转化为平等权利,而是适应了殖民生活的现实和不确定性。因此,正确答案是“平等”,即选项B。
75、( 75 )
A、recalls
B、finds
C、reflects
D、regrets
解析:【喵呜刷题小喵解析】:根据上下文,句子中描述的是“这种合作方式并没有转化为女性的权利”,所以需要用一个动词来描述“转化”这个过程。选项中只有“reflects”符合语境,表示“反映”或“转化”的意思。因此,正确答案为C。
五、Part Ⅴ Translation (20%)
76、But Americans don’t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night.
参考答案:但美国人似乎没有得到这样的信息:我们每晚需要七到九个小时。
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这个句子主要表达的是美国人似乎没有接收到关于每晚需要七到九个小时休息的信息。在英文原句中,"we need seven to nine hours per night"是指每晚需要七到九个小时的休息,而"But Americans don’t seem to be getting the message"则表示美国人似乎没有接收到这个信息。因此,喵呜AI的答案中准确翻译了这个句子,并且用中文表达了相同的含义。

78、Polar bears have thick fur,big paws and other features that make them well prepared for life in their tough environment.
参考答案:北极熊有厚厚的皮毛、大爪子和其他特征,这使它们为在艰苦的环境中生活做好了充分的准备。
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这个简答题主要考察的是对北极熊适应环境的能力的理解。北极熊生活在寒冷的北极地区,那里的环境非常艰苦。为了在这样的环境中生存,北极熊进化出了厚厚的皮毛和大爪子等特征。这些特征使得北极熊能够在寒冷的气候中保持温暖,同时也能够游泳和捕猎,从而确保它们的食物来源。因此,北极熊的这些特征使它们为在艰苦的环境中生活做好了充分的准备。

81、昨天我花了两个小时阅读和回复电子邮件。
参考答案:I spent two hours reading and replying to emails yesterday.
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这个答案基本上是正确的,但存在一处错误。在英文表达中,“回复电子邮件”应该翻译为“replying to emails”,而不是“回复电子邮件”。因此,正确的句子应该是“I spent two hours reading and replying to emails yesterday.”。
82、你认识昨天做报告的那个人吗?
参考答案:Do you know the person who gave the report yesterday?
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:
题目要求确认是否认识昨天做报告的那个人,这是一个询问认识与否的疑问句,可以用"Do you know...?"这样的结构来询问。在这个结构中,“the person who gave the report yesterday”是用来具体描述那个人的身份和动作的短语,意思是“昨天做报告的那个人”。所以,答案应为“Do you know the person who gave the report yesterday?”。
83、她已经邀请我们去她的生日聚会。
参考答案:She has invited us to her birthday party.
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这个句子是一个简单的主谓宾结构的陈述句,主语是"she",谓语是"has invited",宾语是"us to her birthday party"。在这个句子中,"已经"被翻译为"has","邀请"被翻译为"invited","我们"被翻译为"us","她的生日聚会"被翻译为"her birthday party"。因此,整个句子的意思是"她已经邀请我们去她的生日聚会"。
84、我一到那儿,就给你打电话。
参考答案:I'll call you as soon as I get there.
解析:【喵呜刷题小u解析】:这句话的意思是“我一到那儿,就给你打电话。”其中,“I'll call you”表示“我会给你打电话”,而“as soon as I get there”表示“我一到那儿”,因此整个句子的意思是“我一到那儿,就给你打电话。”在英文中,通常使用“as soon as”表示“一…就…”,符合英文表达习惯。因此,可以将这句话翻译为“I'll call you as soon as I get there.”。
