Starry, starry night. Flaming flowers that brightly blaze, Swirling clouds in violet haze(阴霾,疑惑), Reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue. Colors changing hue, morning. field of amber(黄色的) grain, Weathered faces lined in pain, Are soothed(抚慰) beneath the artist’s loving hand. For they could not love you, But still your love was true. And when no hope was left in sight On that starry, starry night, You took your life, as lovers often do. But I could have told you, Vincent, This world was never meant for one As beautiful as you. Now I think I know what you tried to say to me How you suffered for your sanity, How you tried to set them free.

“May 17, 2157
Dear diary,
Today, Tommy found a real book!...”
“What’s it about ” Margie asked.
“School.” replied Tommy, turning the yellow pages.
“Why would anyone write about school I hope they can take my geography teacher away.”
“It’s not our school. This is the old sort that they had centuries ago.”
“Anyway, they had a teacher.” Margie said, reading the book over his shoulder.
“Sure, they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”
“A man How could a man be a teacher ”
“Well, he just told the boys and girls things and gave them assignments and asked them questions.”
“A man isn’t smart enough.”
“Sure, he is. My father knows as much as my teacher.”
Margie wasn’t prepared to argue about that. She said, “I wouldn’t want a strange man in my house to teach me.”
Tommy laughed. “The teachers didn’t live in the house. They had a special building and all the kids went there.”
“And all the kids learned the same thing ”
“Sure, if they were the same age.”
“But my mother says a teacher has to be adjusted to fit the mind of each boy and girl it teaches and that each kid has to be taught differently”
“If you don’t like it, you don’t have to read the book.”
“I didn’t say I didn’t like it,” Margie said quickly.
They weren’t even half-finished when Margie’s mother called, “Margie! School!”
“Not yet, Mamma.”
“Now!” said Mrs. Jones.
Margie said to Tommy, “Can I read the book some more with you after school ”
“Maybe,” Tommy said.
Margie went into the schoolroom, right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on waiting for her.
The screen was lit up, and it said, “Please insert yesterday’s assignments in the proper slot.”
Margie was still thinking about the old schools they had when her grandfather’s grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the assignments and discussed them.
And the teachers were people…

Think “art”. What comes to your mind Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colourful floating clouds when they are lit up at night. Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it, they could also interact with it-literally. They did this by using their phones to change its colours and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art
Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.
Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before. Take for example one of China’s most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty, Along the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwork is rarely on display, people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it. Once in front of the painting, they only have limited time to spend taking in its five metres of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing. Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting. Three-dimensional (3D) animation means that viewers can see the characters move around and interact with their surroundings. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nighttime.
The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.
However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
8. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To explain the art. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To give the background. D. To give a definition.
9. Why is “Michelangelo” referred to in the third paragraph
A. To show he is a famous artist.
B. To show he is also a technician.
C. To show art is different from technology.
D. To show art is the same as technology.
10. What’s mainly talked about in the passage
A. The history of technology and art.
B. The relation of technology and art.
C. The future of technology and art.
D. The examples of technology and art.
11. What can we know about the author’s attitude to the combination of art and technology
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain
D
In our information-driven society, shaping our worldview through the media is similar to forming an opinion about someone solely based on a picture of their foot. While the media might not deliberately deceive us, it often fails to provide a comprehensive view of reality.
Consequently, the question arises: Where, then, shall we get our information from if not from the media Who can we trust How about experts- people who devote their working lives to understanding their chosen slice of the world However, even experts can fall prey to the allure of oversimplification, leading to the “single perspective instinct” that hampers (阻碍) our ability to grasp the intricacies (错综复杂) of the world.
Simple ideas can be appealing because they offer a sense of understanding and certainty. And it is easy to take off down a slippery slope, from one attention-grabbing simple idea to a feeling that this idea beautifully explains, or is the beautiful solution for, lots of other things. The world becomes simple that way.
Yet, when we embrace a singular cause or solution for all problems, we risk oversimplifying complex issues. For instance, championing the concept of equality may lead us to view all problems through the lens of inequality and see resource distribution as the sole panacea. However, such rigidity prevents us from seeing the multidimensional nature of challenges and hinders true comprehension of reality. This “single perspective instinct” ultimately clouds our judgment and restricts our capacity to tackle complex issues effectively. Being always in favor of or always against any particular idea makes you blind to information that doesn’t fit your perspective. This is usually a bad approach if you would like to understand reality.
Instead, constantly test your favorite ideas for weaknesses. Be humble about the extent of your expertise. Be curious about new information that doesn’t fit, and information from other fields. And rather than talking only to people who agree with you, or collecting examples that fit your ideas, consult people who contradict you, disagree with you, and put forward different ideas as a great resource for understanding the world. If this means you don’t have time to form so may opinions, so what
Wouldn’t you rather have few opinions that are right than many that are wrong
12. What does the underlined word “allure” in Para.2 probably mean
A. Temptation. B. Tradition. C. Convenience. D. Consequence.
13. Why are simple ideas appealing according to the passage
A. They meet people’s demand for high efficiency.
B. They generate a sense of complete understanding.
C. They are raised and supported by multiple experts.
D. They reflect the opinions of like-minded individuals.
14. What will the author probably agree with
A. Simplifying matters releases energy for human brains.
B. Constant tests on our ideas help make up for our weakness.
C. A well-founded opinion counts more than many shallow ones.
D. People who disagree with us often have comprehensive views.
15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. Embracing Disagreement: Refusing Overcomplexity
B. Simplifying Information: Enhancing Comprehension
C. Understanding Differences: Establishing Relationships
D. Navigating Complexity: Challenging Oversimplification

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
For most people traveling abroad, their first choice is probably to make a beeline for (直奔) tourist sights. For me, I find lots of joy in grocery (食品杂货店) shopping on holiday.
As a vegetarian (素食主义者) , finding restaurants that meet my needs is not always easy abroad. ____16____ The first thing I do, after dropping my bags off, is to go to a grocery store. That enables me to cook breakfast in the morning without walking around for hours trying to find “vegan breakfast” near me.
The variety of foods attracts me every time I travel somewhere new. In Malta, I found the most delicious chocolate-filled cakes, a product I would struggle to find even in the UK. ____17____ I was so delighted that I could enjoy such an unexpected treat. Another surprise was their selection of ice cream available even in the smallest grocery stores.
____18____ Looking for smoked tofu and corn pancakes turns into quite a mission whenever I visit Cluj-Napoca in Romania. There is usually only one variety of smoked tofu, sold in a very small tub (食品盒) and only in the cafeteria section. ____19____ That is because they are never available at the smaller ones.
Grocery shopping on holiday sounds unusual. But it means being involved in the day-to-day lives of a country’s citizens. I can pretend I am a local and put myself in their shoes. I can watch kids begging their parents for sweets, an international experience that needs no language, or watch couples pick up snacks and drinks for a party on a Friday night. ____20____
A. I ended up eating these every day for breakfast.
B. The challenge of finding food is interesting, too.
C. So I always make sure to book a place with a kitchen.
D. Grocery shopping was a vital part of the holiday experience.
E. It’s an act of understanding people as much as of buying food.
F. Com pancakes always require a trip to the bigger grocery store.
G. By wandering around in a new country, I start to see what they value.

Bacteriophages (phages) and other mobile genetic elements (MGEs) exert an immense selective pressure on ___36___(bacterium), which in response have developed a broad arsenal of defence mechanisms. ___37___ these, CRISPR–Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats–CRISPR-associated proteins) is a group of widespread RNA-guided adaptive immune systems that are classified into two broad classes, six types and numerous subtypes according to their genetic composition and interference mechanism1. The CRISPR–Cas immune response starts with the___38___(acquire) of short DNA fragments (protospacers) from invading MGEs. The protospacers are inserted as spacers between repeats in the CRISPR array to create a memory of the infection. Next, the CRISPR array is expressed___39___ a long transcript that is processed into small, mature CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs), each___40___(carry) a spacer sequence flanked by part of the repeat. Finally, the interference complexes, composed ____41____ a crRNA and one (class 2) or more (class 1) Cas proteins, degrade the complementary nucleic-acid targets that are often found next to a short protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM). The specificity and programmability of the CRISPR–Cas machinery ___42___(lead) to the development of various biotechnological applications in genome editing, molecular diagnostics and more.
In the evolutionary arms race with CRISPR–Cas, phages and other MGEs have evolved diverse strategies to block or circumvent immunity. One widespread evasion mechanism uses protein-___43___(base) CRISPR–Cas inhibitors called anti-CRISPRs (Acrs). So far, more than 100 Acr protein families have been identified___44___ inhibit different stages of the CRISPR–Cas immune response, mainly by interacting directly with Cas proteins. For example, Acrs prevent crRNA loading, effector-complex formation, and target DNA binding and cleavage. Notably, the discovery of these natural ‘off switches’ has presented new opportunities____45____(control) the activity of CRISPR–Cas technologies.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Despite their genetic similarities, my twin sisters Lenna and Elsa were quite different. Lenna was a recognized athlete in our community. We all expected her to attain a scholarship on one field or another, but she lacked a certain edge to her reasoning. Elsa got along well with everyone who works in the library, but she had the grace (优雅) of a two-legged table. They had found few occasions to relate with one another and grew distant. Had I not lived with them, I would not have known them to be sisters.
They did, however, share a drive for success that seemed to become more successful around the same time during senior year. After a track and field season, Lenna was offered full scholarship at a reputable state university near our home, so long as she maintained a 3.0 GPA. Elsa had a more important thing to do: she was one perfect report card away from seizing the chance of making a speech at a graduation ceremony from her opponent, Chet Goodweather. At the end of the sixth Wednesday of the fourth marking period, as the sisters unfolded the printed report cards, their smiles turned to tears: Lenna was getting a “D” in science and Elsa was getting a “C” in gym class.
Lenna and Elsa came home at the same time and were surprised to find one another disappointed. As they argued with one another about who had suffered the greater misfortune, they realized that the other’s problem sounded easy to solve. Elsa barked, “Your problem isn’t even a problem. I could pass that test easily and 1 can show you how to as well.”Lenna retorted(反驳), “Well, all you need to do to get an ‘A’ is to shorten your mile time to five or ten minutes. Two weeks of training with me and the coach will try to have you on the track team.” The girls exchanged glances and came to a quick agreement.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右:
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Every morning for the next two weeks, Lenna woke Elsa up at 4:30 to run.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Final report cards were distributed the Monday before graduation.

“May 17, 2157
Dear diary,
Today, Tommy found a real book!...”
“What’s it about ” Margie asked.
“School.” replied Tommy, turning the yellow pages.
“Why would anyone write about school I hope they can take my geography teacher away.”
“It’s not our school. This is the old sort that they had centuries ago.”
“Anyway, they had a teacher.” Margie said, reading the book over his shoulder.
“Sure, they had a teacher, but it wasn’t a regular teacher. It was a man.”
“A man How could a man be a teacher ”
“Well, he just told the boys and girls things and gave them assignments and asked them questions.”
“A man isn’t smart enough.”
“Sure, he is. My father knows as much as my teacher.”
Margie wasn’t prepared to argue about that. She said, “I wouldn’t want a strange man in my house to teach me.”
Tommy laughed. “The teachers didn’t live in the house. They had a special building and all the kids went there.”
“And all the kids learned the same thing ”
“Sure, if they were the same age.”
“But my mother says a teacher has to be adjusted to fit the mind of each boy and girl it teaches and that each kid has to be taught differently.”
“If you don’t like it, you don’t have to read the book.”
“I didn’t say I didn’t like it,” Margie said quickly.
They weren’t even half-finished when Margie’s mother called, “Margie! School!”
“Not yet, Mamma.”
“Now!” said Mrs. Jones.
Margie said to Tommy, “Can I read the book some more with you after school ”
“Maybe,” Tommy said.
Margie went into the schoolroom, right next to her bedroom, and the mechanical teacher was on waiting for her.
The screen was lit up, and it said, “Please insert yesterday’s assignments in the proper slot.”
Margie was still thinking about the old schools they had when her grandfather’s grandfather was a little boy. All the kids from the whole neighborhood came, laughing and shouting in the schoolyard, sitting together in the schoolroom, going home together at the end of the day. They learned the same things, so they could help one another on the assignments and discussed them.
And the teachers were people…

Think “art”. What comes to your mind Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colourful floating clouds when they are lit up at night. Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it, they could also interact with it-literally. They did this by using their phones to change its colours and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art
Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.
Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before. Take for example one of China’s most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty, Along the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwork is rarely on display, people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it. Once in front of the painting, they only have limited time to spend taking in its five metres of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing. Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting. Three-dimensional (3D) animation means that viewers can see the characters move around and interact with their surroundings. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nighttime.
The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.
However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
8. What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To explain the art. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To give the background. D. To give a definition.
9. Why is “Michelangelo” referred to in the third paragraph
A. To show he is a famous artist.
B. To show he is also a technician.
C. To show art is different from technology.
D. To show art is the same as technology.
10. What’s mainly talked about in the passage
A. The history of technology and art.
B. The relation of technology and art.
C. The future of technology and art.
D. The examples of technology and art.
11. What can we know about the author’s attitude to the combination of art and technology
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了将技术与艺术结合的优缺点。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Think “art”. What comes to your mind Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights (说到“艺术”,你想到了什么?是卢浮宫里希腊或罗马的雕塑?抑或是故宫博物院里中国的名画?又也许,仅仅是也许,是一片舞动的光影?)”以及后文内容,可知,本文主题是技术与艺术结合,所以本段的作用是引出话题。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.(无论你的看法如何,数千年来人们一直通过艺术表达自己的思想和理念。为此,人们使用了各种各样的工具和技术。然而,米开朗基罗等人一直被称为“艺术家”而非“技巧大师”。这就意味着艺术和科技一直被看作两个截然不同的领域)”可知,本段提到米开朗基罗,是为了展示艺术不同于技术。故选C项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before.(然而,今天,技术的进步导致了艺术与技术的结合。因此,艺术界正在发生巨大的变化。现在我们比以往任何时候都更容易接触艺术)”以及第五段“The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.(艺术与科技的结合也在改变着我们对“艺术”和“艺术家”的概念。我们不仅可以与艺术互动,还可以参与艺术的创作。随着新的技术工具触手可及,越来越多的人正在探索他们的创造力。其结果是令人兴奋的新艺术形式,如数字绘画和视频)”以及纵观全文可知,本文主要讲述了将技术与艺术结合,也就是技术与艺术的关系。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.(然而,技术下一步将把艺术带向何方,谁也说不准。但有一件事是肯定的,随着这么多艺术家探索新的可能性,我们肯定可以期待意想不到的事情)”可知,作者认为艺术与技术结合将可以期待,所以是积极的的态度。故选A项。

In our information-driven society, shaping our worldview through the media is similar to forming an opinion about someone solely based on a picture of their foot. While the media might not deliberately deceive us, it often fails to provide a comprehensive view of reality.
Consequently, the question arises: Where, then, shall we get our information from if not from the media Who can we trust How about experts- people who devote their working lives to understanding their chosen slice of the world However, even experts can fall prey to the allure of oversimplification, leading to the “single perspective instinct” that hampers (阻碍) our ability to grasp the intricacies (错综复杂) of the world.
Simple ideas can be appealing because they offer a sense of understanding and certainty. And it is easy to take off down a slippery slope, from one attention-grabbing simple idea to a feeling that this idea beautifully explains, or is the beautiful solution for, lots of other things. The world becomes simple that way.
Yet, when we embrace a singular cause or solution for all problems, we risk oversimplifying complex issues. For instance, championing the concept of equality may lead us to view all problems through the lens of inequality and see resource distribution as the sole panacea. However, such rigidity prevents us from seeing the multidimensional nature of challenges and hinders true comprehension of reality. This “single perspective instinct” ultimately clouds our judgment and restricts our capacity to tackle complex issues effectively. Being always in favor of or always against any particular idea makes you blind to information that doesn’t fit your perspective. This is usually a bad approach if you would like to understand reality.
Instead, constantly test your favorite ideas for weaknesses. Be humble about the extent of your expertise. Be curious about new information that doesn’t fit, and information from other fields. And rather than talking only to people who agree with you, or collecting examples that fit your ideas, consult people who contradict you, disagree with you, and put forward different ideas as a great resource for understanding the world. If this means you don’t have time to form so may opinions, so what
Wouldn’t you rather have few opinions that are right than many that are wrong
12. What does the underlined word “allure” in Para.2 probably mean
A. Temptation. B. Tradition. C. Convenience. D. Consequence.
13. Why are simple ideas appealing according to the passage
A. They meet people’s demand for high efficiency.
B. They generate a sense of complete understanding.
C. They are raised and supported by multiple experts.
D. They reflect the opinions of like-minded individuals.
14. What will the author probably agree with
A. Simplifying matters releases energy for human brains.
B. Constant tests on our ideas help make up for our weakness.
C. A well-founded opinion counts more than many shallow ones.
D. People who disagree with us often have comprehensive views.
15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage
A. Embracing Disagreement: Refusing Overcomplexity
B. Simplifying Information: Enhancing Comprehension
C. Understanding Differences: Establishing Relationships
D. Navigating Complexity: Challenging Oversimplification
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。短文主要讲述了在信息驱动的社会中,塑造我们的世界观经常无法提供全面的现实视角。简单的想法可能很吸引人,但是我们会冒着过度简化复杂问题的风险,最终会影响我们的判断力,限制我们有效解决复杂问题的能力。我们应该与持有不同观点的人交谈并试图理解他们的观点,形成正确的观点。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段“leading to the “single perspective instinct” that hampers(阻碍)our ability to grasp the intricacies of the world. (导致“单一视角本能”, 阻碍我们掌握世界的复杂性)”可知,专家受到过度简化的allure,也会导致单一视觉,不能掌握世界的复杂性,因此推断此处表示受到了过度简化的诱惑,allure在这里指的是“诱惑”。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Simple ideas can be appealing because they offer a sense of understanding and certainty. (简单的想法可能很有吸引力,因为它们提供了一种理解和确定性)”可知,简单的想法具有吸引力是因为它们产生一种完全理解的感觉。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Instead, constantly test your favorite ideas for weaknesses. Be humble about the extent of your expertise. Be curious about new information that doesn’t fit, and information from other fields. And rather than talking only to people who agree with you, or collecting examples that fit your ideas, consult people who contradict you, disagree with you, and put forward different ideas as a great resource for understanding the world.(相反,要不断测试你最喜欢的想法的弱点。对自己的专业知识要谦虚。对不合适的新信息和来自其他领域的信息保持好奇。而不是只与那些同意你的人交谈,或者收集符合你想法的例子,咨询那些反驳你、不同意你的人,并提出不同想法的人,作为理解世界的重要资源)”可推断,作者认为要不断测试自己的想法,要谦虚,要保持好奇,不要只是与同意自己观点的人交谈,要与那些与持有与自己不同观点的人交流,接受不同的观点,作为理解世界的重要资源。因此推断作者认为理由充分的观点比肤浅的观点更有价值。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段内容“In our information-driven society, shaping our worldview through the media is similar to forming an opinion about someone solely based on a picture of their foot. While the media might not deliberately deceive us, it often fails to provide a comprehensive view of reality.(在我们这个信息驱动社会中,通过媒体塑造我们的世界观就像仅仅根据一个人的脚的照片来形成对他们的看法一样,它经常无法提供全面的现实视角)”,第二段的“However, even experts can fall prey to the allure of oversimplification, leading to the “single perspective instinct” that hampers(阻碍)our ability to grasp the intricacies of the world.(然而,即使是专家也会受到过度简化的诱惑,导致“单一视角本能”,阻碍我们掌握世界的复杂性)”以及倒数第三的“And rather than talking only to people who agree with you, or collecting examples that fit your ideas, consult people who contradict you, disagree with you, and put forward different ideas as a great resource for understanding the world. (与其只与那些同意你的人交谈,或者收集符合你想法的例子,不如咨询那些反驳你、不同意你的人,并提出不同想法的人,作为理解世界的重要资源)”以及全文内容可知,本文作者主要提出“单一视角本能”最终会影响我们的判断力,限制我们有效解决复杂问题的能力,我们应该接受不同的观点,作为理解世界的重要资源。因此D项“驾驭复杂性:挑战过度简化”为最佳标题。故选D。

For most people traveling abroad, their first choice is probably to make a beeline for (直奔) tourist sights. For me, I find lots of joy in grocery (食品杂货店) shopping on holiday.
As a vegetarian (素食主义者) , finding restaurants that meet my needs is not always easy abroad. ____16____ The first thing I do, after dropping my bags off, is to go to a grocery store. That enables me to cook breakfast in the morning without walking around for hours trying to find “vegan breakfast” near me.
The variety of foods attracts me every time I travel somewhere new. In Malta, I found the most delicious chocolate-filled cakes, a product I would struggle to find even in the UK. ____17____ I was so delighted that I could enjoy such an unexpected treat. Another surprise was their selection of ice cream available even in the smallest grocery stores.
____18____ Looking for smoked tofu and corn pancakes turns into quite a mission whenever I visit Cluj-Napoca in Romania. There is usually only one variety of smoked tofu, sold in a very small tub (食品盒) and only in the cafeteria section. ____19____ That is because they are never available at the smaller ones.
Grocery shopping on holiday sounds unusual. But it means being involved in the day-to-day lives of a country’s citizens. I can pretend I am a local and put myself in their shoes. I can watch kids begging their parents for sweets, an international experience that needs no language, or watch couples pick up snacks and drinks for a party on a Friday night. ____20____
A. I ended up eating these every day for breakfast.
B. The challenge of finding food is interesting, too.
C. So I always make sure to book a place with a kitchen.
D. Grocery shopping was a vital part of the holiday experience.

第二节 (共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Bacteriophages (phages) and other mobile genetic elements (MGEs) exert an immense selective pressure on ___36___(bacterium), which in response have developed a broad arsenal of defence mechanisms. ___37___ these, CRISPR–Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats–CRISPR-associated proteins) is a group of widespread RNA-guided adaptive immune systems that are classified into two broad classes, six types and numerous subtypes according to their genetic composition and interference mechanism1. The CRISPR–Cas immune response starts with the___38___(acquire) of short DNA fragments (protospacers) from invading MGEs. The protospacers are inserted as spacers between repeats in the CRISPR array to create a memory of the infection. Next, the CRISPR array is expressed___39___ a long transcript that is processed into small, mature CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs), each___40___(carry) a spacer sequence flanked by part of the repeat. Finally, the interference complexes, composed ____41____ a crRNA and one (class 2) or more (class 1) Cas proteins, degrade the complementary nucleic-acid targets that are often found next to a short protospacer-adjacent motif (PAM). The specificity and programmability of the CRISPR–Cas machinery ___42___(lead) to the development of various biotechnological applications in genome editing, molecular diagnostics and more.
In the evolutionary arms race with CRISPR–Cas, phages and other MGEs have evolved diverse strategies to block or circumvent immunity. One widespread evasion mechanism uses protein-___43___(base) CRISPR–Cas inhibitors called anti-CRISPRs (Acrs). So far, more than 100 Acr protein families have been identified___44___ inhibit different stages of the CRISPR–Cas immune response, mainly by interacting directly with Cas proteins. For example, Acrs prevent crRNA loading, effector-complex formation, and target DNA binding and cleavage. Notably, the discovery of these natural ‘off switches’ has presented new opportunities____45____(control) the activity of CRISPR–Cas technologies.
【答案】36. bacteria
37. Among 38. acquisition
39. as 40. carrying
41. of 42. has led

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了噬菌体和其他移动遗传元件(MGEs)对细菌施加了巨大的选择压力,作为回应,细菌已经发展出广泛的防御机制。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:噬菌体和其他移动遗传元件(MGEs)对细菌施加巨大的选择压力,作为回应,细菌已经发展出广泛的防御机制。空处应填名词作宾语,bacterium“细菌”是可数名i,此处用复数形式表泛指。故填bacteria。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:其中,CRISPR-Cas是一组广泛存在的rna引导的适应性免疫系统,根据其遗传组成和干扰机制可分为两大类、六类和众多亚型1。根据句意可知,此处为介词Among表示“在……当中”,满足句意要求。故填Among。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:CRISPR-Cas免疫反应从入侵的MGEs获得短DNA片段开始。空处应填名词作宾语,acquisition“获得”是抽象名词,不可数。故填acquisition。
【39题详解】
考查动词短语。句意:接下来,CRISPR阵列被表达为一个长转录本,该转录本被加工成小的、成熟的CRISPR rna (crrna),每个rna都携带一个间隔序列,两侧是部分重复序列。分析句子可知,此处为动词短语be expressed as“表达为”,满足句意要求。故填as。
【40题详解】
考查独立主格结构。句意:接下来,CRISPR阵列被表达为一个长转录本,该转录本被加工成小的、成熟的CRISPR rna (crrna),每个rna都携带一个间隔序列,两侧是部分重复序列。分析句子可知,此处为独立主格结构,所以为非谓语动词,carry和逻辑主语each为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填carrying。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:最后,由一个crRNA和一个(2类)或多个(1类)Cas蛋白组成的干扰复合物,降解通常位于短原间隔器邻近基序(PAM)附近的互补核酸靶标。分析句子可知,此处为动词短语be composed of“由……组成”,满足句意要求。故填of。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:CRISPR-Cas机制的特异性和可编程性导致了基因组编辑、分子诊断等各种生物技术应用的发展。分析句子可知,此处为谓语动词的填入,结合句意可知,表示已经完成的动作应用现在完成时,主语The specificity and programmability of the CRISPR–Cas machinery为单数意义名词,所以助动词用has。故填has led。
【43题详解】
考查构词法。句意:一种广泛的逃避机制是使用基于蛋白质的CRISPR-Cas抑制剂,称为抗crispr (Acrs)。分析可知,此处为“名词+过去分词”构成的形容词,protain-based“基于蛋白质的”。故填based。
【44题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:到目前为止,已经确定了100多个Acr蛋白家族,它们主要通过直接与Cas蛋白相互作用来抑制CRISPR-Cas免疫反应的不同阶段。分析句子可知,空处引导宾语从句,从句不缺主干成份,且句意完整,应用连接词that引导从句。故填that。
【45题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:值得注意的是,这些天然“关闭开关”的发现为控制CRISPR-Cas技术的活性提供了新的机会。分析句子可知,此处为动词不定式to do作后置定语修饰opportunities,opportunities to do“做某事的机会”为惯用表达。故填to control。

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Despite their genetic similarities, my twin sisters Lenna and Elsa were quite different. Lenna was a recognized athlete in our community. We all expected her to attain a scholarship on one field or another, but she lacked a certain edge to her reasoning. Elsa got along well with everyone who works in the library, but she had the grace (优雅) of a two-legged table. They had found few occasions to relate with one another and grew distant. Had I not lived with them, I would not have known them to be sisters.
They did, however, share a drive for success that seemed to become more successful around the same time during senior year. After a track and field season, Lenna was offered full scholarship at a reputable state university near our home, so long as she maintained a 3.0 GPA. Elsa had a more important thing to do: she was one perfect report card away from seizing the chance of making a speech at a graduation ceremony from her opponent, Chet Goodweather. At the end of the sixth Wednesday of the fourth marking period, as the sisters unfolded the printed report cards, their smiles turned to tears: Lenna was getting a “D” in science and Elsa was getting a “C” in gym class.
Lenna and Elsa came home at the same time and were surprised to find one another disappointed. As they argued with one another about who had suffered the greater misfortune, they realized that the other’s problem sounded easy to solve. Elsa barked, “Your problem isn’t even a problem. I could pass that test easily and 1 can show you how to as well.”Lenna retorted(反驳), “Well, all you need to do to get an ‘A’ is to shorten your mile time to five or ten minutes. Two weeks of training with me and the coach will try to have you on the track team.” The girls exchanged glances and came to a quick agreement.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右:
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Every morning for the next two weeks, Lenna woke Elsa up at 4:30 to run.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Final report cards were distributed the Monday before graduation.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Every morning for the next two weeks, Lenna woke Elsa up at 4:30 to run. At first Elsa didn’t want to move and Lenna was able to review her vocabulary while jogging alongside her, but by the end of the two weeks, Lenna actually had to sweat a bit to keep up with her. Every day after school, Elsa would drag Lenna into the school library. The girls would talk as Lenna periodically caught on to a difficult concept during these marathon study sessions.
Final report cards were distributed the Monday before graduation. Lenna and Elsa agreed to meet up at the library after school to open their report cards together. To their surprise, when Lenna unfolded her report card, she got a “B” in science class and would meet the terms of her scholarship. Elsa got an “A” in gym class. With another perfect report card in hand, she would surely edge out Chet Good weather to become the top student.
