Kim Hyung-ho arrived in China from the Republic of Korea on Aug 24,1992, which happened to be the same day that the two countries officially established diplomatic relations. Kim, just 19 at the time, came to China to study traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), a medical system with thousands of years of history and which enjoys popularity in many countries.
Kim’s passion for TCM took root in his teenage years after he had a twisted ankle treated with acupuncture. “It’s incredible that a little needle can have such magical powers. That experience inspired me to learn authentic TCM in the place from which it originated,” recalls Kim.
In 2013, he was hired as a TCM specialist by the international clinic of Qingdao Municipal Hospital. “Doctor Kim is a professional, hardworking and nice,” says Sun Jie, director of the clinic. “He also helps bridge the communication gap between our staff and Korean patients.” For those who have difficulty moving around, Kim will go to the patient’s home to offer treatment.
Apart from his daily work, Kim has also volunteered to provide free medical consultations in the countryside. He found that many rural people have been suffering from long time diseases such as high blood pressure, but are not aware of their conditions, let alone attend regular checkups. As a result, Kim led fellow volunteers to collect lists of people from different villages. The lists were handed to local authorities to keep track of the patients’ treatment. Kim also provided guidance for village doctors, which helped improve the standard of treatment in the area.
Three decades have passed since Kim set foot in China, and he’s very grateful for what he has gained in the country. “Medicine does not have boundaries. As a TCM doctor, I will continue to communicate with doctors in Korea and other countries to help it spread and flourish even further, so that more people can understand its excellence,” says Kim.
4. When did Kim become interested in TCM?
A. He learned the long history of TCM.
B. China and Korea had a close relationship.
C. He was treated with TCM when he was young.
D. Chinese medicine enjoyed great popularity in Korea.
5. What can we infer from the working experience of Kim?
A. Korean patients are specially treated.
B. Some rural patients will be tracked by volunteers.
C. A blind patient may get a home treatment by Kim.
D. High blood pressure patients will be completely cured.
6. What does the underlined word “flourish” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Crash. B. Develop. C. Remain. D. Increase.
7 What is the purpose of this text?
A. To express patients’ demand. B. To recommend TCM treatment.
C. To explain a medical phenomenon. D. To introduce an international doctor.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了国际医生Kim Hyung-ho来中国学习中医，并且对农村医疗做出了贡献。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Kim’s passion for TCM took root in his teenage years after he had a twisted ankle treated with acupuncture.( Kim对中医的热情在他十几岁的时候就开始了，当时他扭伤了脚踝，用针灸治疗)”可知，Kim开始对中医感兴趣始于他小时接受过中医治疗。故选C。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“As a result, Kim led fellow volunteers to collect lists of people from different villages. The lists were handed to local authorities to keep track of the patients’ treatment.(因此，Kim带领志愿者们收集了来自不同村庄的人的名单。名单被交给当地政府，以跟踪患者的治疗情况)”可推知，部分农村患者将由志愿者跟踪。故选B。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“As a TCM doctor, I will continue to communicate with doctors in Korea and other countries to help it spread and”以及后文“so that more people can understand its excellence”可知，Kim说自己作为一名中医医生，将继续与韩国和其他国家的医生交流，帮助它进一步传播和发展，让更多人了解它的优点。故画线词意思是“发展”。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Kim Hyung-ho arrived in China from the Republic of Korea on Aug 24,1992, which happened to be the same day that the two countries officially established diplomatic relations.

Drinking your daily cup of coffee may help to lower your risk of stroke（中风）and heart disease, according to a latest research. Researchers at the Heart and Vascular Centre, Budapest, Hungary have found that drinking up to three cups of coffee a day may help protect your cardiovascular（心血管的）system.
The team studied data from nearly 500,000 people registered in the UK Biobank with an average age of 56 and no signs of heart disease at the time of recruitment. They divided them into three categories according to their coffee drinking habits: non-drinkers, up to three-cup-a-day drinkers, and more than three-cup-a-day drinkers.
Considering influencing factors such as age, sex, weight height, physical activity, blood pressure, diabetes, socioeconomic status, and usual intake of alcohol, meat, tea, fruit and vegetables, they found that three-cup-a-day drinkers had a 12 per cent lower risk of death from all causes, a 17 per cent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease, and a 21 per cent lower risk of stroke
"To our knowledge, this is the largest study to systematically assess the cardiovascular effects of regular coffee consumption in a population without diagnosed heart disease," said study author Dr Judit Simon.
To further investigate the effect, the researchers used data from more than 30, 000 partic-ipants in the UK Biobank who had undergone MRI（核磁共振成像）scans to determine the structure and functioning capacity of their hearts.
Dr Judit Simon said, "The imaging analysis indicated that compared with participants who did not drink coffee regularly, daily coffee consumers had healthier sized and better func-tioning hearts. Our findings suggest that coffee consumption of up to three cups per day is associated with favourable cardiovascular outcomes. While further studies are needed to explain the underlying mechanisms, the observed benefits might be partly explained by positive changes in cardiac structure and function. "
8. What is the latest research mainly about?
A. The risk of heart disease. B. The ways to avoid stroke.
C. The cups of drinking coffee. D. The benefits of drinking coffee.
9. Why does the author mention the influencing factors in paragraph 3?
A. To show the difficulty of the research.
B. To show the reliability of the findings.
C. To introduce the process of the research.
D. To introduce the limitation of the findings.
10. What do the two data analyses have in common?
A. They find coffee's positive effects on people.
B. They focus on negative changes in people's hearts.
C. They oppose coffee consumption.
D. They have been accepted widely.
11. What attitude does Dr Judit Simon have to drinking coffee?
A. Carefree. B. Skeptical. C. Favourable. D. Tolerant.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文，一项最近的研究表明：常喝咖啡有助于降低中风和心脏病。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Drinking your daily cup of coffee may help to lower your risk of stroke（中风）and heart disease, according to a latest research.” 一项最新研究表明，每天喝一杯咖啡可能有助于降低中风和心脏病的风险。可知，最新的研究是关于喝咖啡的好处，故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“they found that three-cup-a-day drinkers had a 12 per cent lower risk of death from all causes, a 17 per cent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease, and a 21 per cent lower risk of stroke ” 他们发现，每天喝三杯咖啡的人因各种原因死亡的风险降低12%，因心血管疾病死亡的风险降低17%，中风的风险降低21%。所以此处提及影响因素主要是以显示研究结果的可靠性。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“they found that three-cup-a-day drinkers had a 12 per cent lower risk of death from all causes, a 17 per cent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease, and a 21 per cent lower risk of stroke ” 他们发现，每天喝三杯咖啡的人因各种原因死亡的风险降低12%，因心血管疾病死亡的风险降低17%，中风的风险降低21%。根据最后一段“The imaging analysis indicated that compared with participants who did not drink coffee regularly, daily coffee consumers had healthier sized and better functioning hearts” 成像分析表明，与不经常喝咖啡的参与者相比，每天喝咖啡的人的心脏更健康，功能也更好。科学家通过两份数据的研究，两份数据都表明咖啡对人有积极的影响。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“. Our findings suggest that coffee consumption of up to three cups per day is associated with favourable cardiovascular outcomes.While further studies are needed to explain the underlying mechanisms, the observed benefits might be partly explained by positive changes in cardiac structure and function” 我们的研究结果表明，每天饮用三杯以上的咖啡与良好的心血管结果有关。虽然还需要进一步的研究来解释其潜在的机制，但观察到的好处可能部分是因为心脏结构和功能的积极变化。根据Dr Judit Simon所说的话可知，Dr Judit Simon对研究持有积极的态度，故选C项。

A selection of wildlife sculptures made out of recycled rubbish is being displayed at an exhibition at the Harley Gallery in Glasgow, England. The sculptures have, been created by Glasgow — based artist Michelle Reader, who has been working with recycled materials for over 20 years. The inspiration behind this collection of artwork was the increase in fly-tipping during the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021. Fly-tipping is when people illegally dump rubbish or litter in a public place.
Reader told the BBC, “Glasgow Wildlife Trust showed me some of the materials that were found on their reserves — a washing machine, rusty bike frame, car tyres.” She decided to create wildlife sculptures out of these materials to encourage people to think about the damage fly-tipping can do to the environment and wildlife. Her three-dimensional artworks included recycled items such as skis, a gas mask, and washing machine, parts.
Reader often drew inspiration from the “beauty of the natural world” and said that the large model of the white-tailed bee was inspired by the many hours she spent on her distribution during the pandemic. Another sculpture, of a bearded eagle, was inspired by the sighting of one such bird in the Peak District in July 2020. This was only the second time it had been spotted in the UK.
Other projects Reader has been involved with have highlighted issues such as the importance of recycling and reducing food waste. In April, the National Space Centre in Leicester, England, launched their Home Planet gallery, which featured an art installation from Reader. Using rubbish found in rivers, such as plastic bottles, tennis balls, footwear, and toys, Reader created a large wave sculpture to highlight the problem of littering.
Reader says that through her sculptures she draws attention to environmental issues in an attractive and humorous way. The exhibition is on at Harley Callery in Glasgow, England, until 24 July.
12. What inspired the exhibition at the Harley Gallery?
A. Recycled materials. B. The covid -19 pandemic.
C. Wildlife sculptures. D. The increasing fly-tipping.
13. Why does Reader create the wildlife sculptures?
A. To be environmentally-friendly. B. To protect wildlife animals.
C. To love the sculpture art. D. To improve creative ability.
14. Where does this passage probably come from?
A. A family survey. B. A health magazine.
C. An environmental magazine. D. A science guide.
15. What may be the best title for the passage?
A. Look at the art from another angle. B. Explore the artistic talents in your life.
C. Wildlife sculptures made from rubbish. D. A new way to live a sustainable life.

第二节 读后续写(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。
I remember one Thanksgiving when our family had no money and no food, and someone came with a huge box of food, a giant turkey and even some pans to cook it in. I couldn’t believe it.
The stranger said to my father, “I’m here because a friend of yours knows you’re in need and that you wouldn’t accept direct help, so I’ve brought this for you. Have a great Thanksgiving.”
Obviously that experience had a profound impact on my life. I promised myself that someday I would do the same thing for other people. By the time I was eighteen I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (仪式). I did part-time jobs, so I would earn money and buy enough food for one or two families. Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door. I always included a note that explained my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. The note concluded, “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned.
Two years ago my business partners and I were stuck in New York City during Thanksgiving. When I told them what I always did on Thanksgiving, they got interested. “Let’s go to Harlem (the poorest area in New York) and feed some people in need. That’s what Thanksgiving really is: Giving good thanks, not just eating turkey.” I said.
Everyone got excited about being the delivery people and couldn’t wait to knock at some doors in Harlem. However, when we called the rent-a-car places, we were told that they were all out of vans.
注意：

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范例 1
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Thus, we decided to go out to find a van that could be helpful for our idea. It happened that a van was waiting outside a store and the driver was busy unloading. I greeted him with a smile and told him my Thanksgiving ritual and our plan. Handing him 100 dollars, I asked him if he could work together with us to carry food to Harlem.
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. Having filled the van with full load of food, we left for Harlem, dressed like delivery men. Two hours later, we were on our way back with an empty van. Although exhausted, we talked and laughed with great joy and excitement. The broad smile spreading across the poor people’s faces told us that our small act of kindness made a difference to them and I believed some day they would also give others a helping hand if possible.
范例 2
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Walking to a crossroad and waiting by the light, we knocked on each window, “Sir, could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks?” Every time the driver would look away ignoring us. Then we started offering people $100 but that also seemed ineffective. We were ready to give up when a perfect van drove up, which was extra big and could accommodate all of us. We went up and asked “Could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks? We’ll pay you a hundred dollars.”
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. On the way to Harlem we chatted. “Why do you people want to do this?” asked he. I told him my story and my thanksgiving ritual. Arriving there, we first went to buy necessary food, packing enough for seven families for thirty days. Then we went to deliver them. It was both an astonishing realization that people lived this way and a truly fulfilling experience to make even a small difference.
范例 3
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. We went to the street and waved to stop the passing vans. What made us down was that no one stopped. But I told myself: “maybe next one.” After about half an hour, a van stopped in front of me and a young man stuck out his head, “What can I do for you, Sir?” “Are you willing to take us to Harlem? We can pay you 100 dollars.” “Harlem?” the driver hesitated. After I explained what we wanted to do, he nodded. I handed him 100 dollars.
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. We bought a lot of food, packed them and knocked at some doors to deliver the food to the families in need. As usual, I included the notes explaining my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. Seeing the surprised but grateful expressions on their faces from a distance, we felt we had a meaningful Thanks giving Day.
