READING COMPREHENSION 10%Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1Every day, we are influenced by mass media. Although some critics of the media claim that these means of communication are used mostly to control our thinking and get us to buy products we don’t need, they agree that the media also contributes to keeping people informed. In other words, while risks do exist, the benefits of the media are far more than the disadvantages. Most of the messages are designed either to inform or to entertain --- and neither of the goals can be considered risky or harmful.If consumers of the media could be taught at an early age to examine messages critically, i.e., to think carefully about what is being communicated --- they would be able to take advantage of the information and enjoy the entertainment without being hurt by it. The key to critical thinking is recognizing the motives of the news item or writers, the advertisers, and so on. Are both sides of the issue being presented? Have enough facts about the product being advertised been purchased?Furthermore, citizens need the opportunity to hear news, opinions, and public affairs. Information about current events is presented in depth on publicly funded TV channels and radio stations as well as in newspapers. In addition, the public broadcasting media can help viewers and listeners to complete their education. Recent immigrants, for example, can improve their command of English through TV and radio, and in addition, some college courses are taught on educational television.Another recognized advantage of the media is that it gives people information they need for their daily lives: weather and traffic reports are good examples. While commercial and advertising do not necessarily present accurate information, they do make people aware of the availability of products that could improve their lives. In addition, they create a larger demand for some items, which may lead to a fall in their price.While the media can be valuable means of educating the public, when most people turn on the TV set or the radio, they want to be entertained. As a result most programming consists of movies, music, humorous shows, game shows, and sports event. Some of these offerings are of low quality, but on the other hand, many are fun to watch and interestingly written and well presented.Even though the mass media can be misused, most of its effects are positive. We are all influenced by television, and radio as well as movies, magazines and newspapers. If we are careful to examine their message critically--- they can allbe of benefit to our lives.21.What is the main point of the author?A) Advertising is harmful when it presents inaccurate information.B) The positive effects of the mass media are more than the negative ones.C) People should learn to take advantage of the media’s benefits.D) Television is more useful as a means of entertainment than as a means ofproviding information.22.According to the author, the two main purposes of mass media are to_____.A)Control our thinking and get us to buy useless productsB)Provide people with information and entertainment.C)Make people aware of the availability of products and create a largedemand for some items.D)Express the views of the public and help improve recent immigrants’English.23.The author feels that consumers of the mass media should be taught atan early age to _____.A)bring their imagination into full play when watching programs of lowquality.B)Buy products advertised in commercials so that the demand increases.C)Turn off the TV set when a ridiculous program comes on.D)Think critically about the message brought to them.24.It can be learned from paragraph 3 that citizens will be in a betterposition to express their views and make their choices if they are _____.A)highly educated through TV.B)Well protected by the government.C)Highly paid by their employees.D)Well informed by the media.25.Which of the following statements is true according to the text?A)The mass media offers information needed in daily lives.B)Publicly funded broadcasting does not present information aboutcurrent wants in depth.C)Information provided by commercials and advertising is alwaysaccurate.D)Many TV and radio programs are not interesting.P a r t I I I T r a n s l a t i o n30%26.虽然结果尚待以后见分晓，但我们必须记得“不进则退。

2024届北京市清华大学中学生标准学术能力诊断性测试1月测试英语试卷

Chemist Carolyn Bertozzi is one of them. Her discovery of biorthogonal chemistry (生物正交化学) in 2003 created a brand-new discipline of scientific investigation, which has enabled countless advances in medical science and led to a far greater understanding of biology at a molecular (分子的) level. On October 5, Bertozzi was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, jointly with two other professors. She is also the only woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize in science this year, after an all-male line-up in 2021.Bertozzi was the middle daughter of an MIT physics professor and a secretary. Few predicted that Bertozzi would be the most famous person in the family. While her academic performance was not bad in high school, she was fond of playing soccer. She end ed up being admitted to Harvard University. Despite her talent in soccer, she found it too time-consuming and quit the sport to devote herself to academics.But before becoming a rock star scientist, Bertozzi almost became an actual rock star. When she started at Harvard, she was tempted to major in music. That idea was “unpopular” with her parents, and she was timid about defying them. Instead, she chose the premed (医学预科的) trackthat included classes in math and sciences, and declared herself a biology major at the end of her first year of college.Her interest in music did not completely fall by the wayside, however. Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals for a hair metal band. Bertozzi, however, did not play with the band for long. Once the band’s practices and performances conflicted with her labs and classes, there was only one outcome.Plus, she’d soon have organic chemistry to think about a course which is infamous for weeding out pre-meds. Without any clear career ambitions up to that point, Bertozzi had been thinking about possibly becoming a doctor when, in her sophomore year (大二学年), she suddenly fell so head over heels in love with her chemistry course that she couldn’t tear herself away from her textbooks long enough to go out on Saturday nights. A torture to many was pure pleasure for her. Bertozzi changed her major from biology to chemistry a year later.Bertozzi has sometimes joked about her having missed out on her chance to follow Morello to LosAngeles. “I didn’t get on that bus, and my playing is now limited to ‘The Wheel's on the Bus Go Round,’ I’m waiting for my sons to get old enough to appreciate 1980s heavy metal!”4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．Bertozzi is one of those scientists who made significant new discoveries.B．Bertozzi was the only female to win a Nobel Prize in science in 2021.C．Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals throughout her college years.D．Bertozzi initially planned to become a doctor.5．The underlined word in Para. 3 means ________.A．tell B．disobey C．approach D．threaten6．The organic chemistry course Bertozzi took was known to be ________.A．easy and enjoyableB．difficult to pass for pre-med studentsC．popular among hair metal band playersD．a required course for all college students7．What kind of person do you think Carolyn Bertozzi is?A．Brave and sympathetic.B．Athletic and critical.C．Humble and passionate.D．Talented and creative.Willie Sutton, a once celebrated American criminal, was partly famous for saying he robbed banks because “that’s where the money is.” Actually, museums are where the money is. In a single gallery there can be paintings worth more, taken together, than a whole fleet of jets. And while banks can hide their money in basements, museums have to put their valuables in plain sight.Nothing could be worse than the thought of a painting as important as The Scream, Edvard Munch’s impressive image of a man screaming against the backdrop of a blood-red sky, disappearing into a criminal underworld that doesn’t care much about careful treatment of art works. Art theft is a vast problem around the world. As many as 10,000 precious items of all kinds disappear each year. And for smaller museums in particular, it may not be a problem they can afford to solve. The money for insurance on very famous pictures would be budget destroyers even for the largest museums.Although large museums have had their share of embarrassing robberies, the greatest problem is small institutions. Neither can afford heavy security. Large museums attach alarms to their most valuable paintings, but a modest alarm system can cost $500,000 or more. Some museums are looking into tracking equipment that would allow them to follow stolen items once they leave the museums. But conservators are concerned that if they have to insert something, it might damage the object. Meanwhile, smaller museums can barely afford enough guards, relying instead on elderly staff.Thieves sometimes try using artworks as money for other underworld deals. The planners of the 2006 robbery of Russborough House near Dublin, who stole 18 paintings, tried in vain to trade them for Irish Republican Army members held in British prison. Others demand a ransom (赎金) from the museum that owns the pictures. Once thieves in Frankfurt, Germany, made off with two major works by J.M.W. Turner from the Tate Gallery in London. The paintings, worth more than $80 million, were recovered in 2012 after the Tate paid more than $5 million to people having “information” about the paintings. Though ransom is illegal in Britain, money for looking into a case is not, provided that police agree the source of the information is unconnected to the crime. All the same, where information money end s and ransom begins is often a gray area.8．Why do smaller museums face a greater challenge in preventing art theft?A．They lack experienced staff.B．They cannot afford high-tech security systems.C．They do not have valuable artworks.D．They lack interest in art conservation.9．What is the concern of conservators regarding the use of tracking equipment to prevent art theft?A．It might damage the artwork.B．It is too expensive for smaller museums.C．It is difficult to insert into the paintings.D．It is ineffective for valuable paintings.10．From Paragraph 4, we can learn that ________.A．the thieves demanded a ransom from the Tate GalleryB．the Tate Gallery regained the lost paintings illegallyC．the money paid was considered an information fee, not a ransomD．the police requested the Tate Gallery to pay the money11．The purpose of this passage is ________.A．to remind criminals to protect and preserve the paintingB．to give suggestions on how to avoid the crimes of art theftC．to urge museums to set up more advanced security systemsD．to make people aware of art theft and the necessity of good security systemsWho cares if people think wrongly that the Internet has had more important influences than the washing machine? Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the most recent changes?It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of people’s opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.The fascination with the ICT(Information and Communication Technology) revolution, represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so “yesterday” that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in “post-industrial society” has ledthose countries to neglect their manufacturing sector (制造业) with negative consequences for their economies.Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the “digital divide” between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and Internet facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved people’s lives more than giving every child a laptop computer or setting up Internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a “borderless world”. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.12．What are the effects of people’ misjudgments on the influences of new technology?A．It stimulates innovation.B．It affects their personal opinions.C．It influences their use of resources.D．It leads to improved technology.13．Why is the “digital divide” a concern related to the fascination with the Internet in rich countries?A．It leads to competition between rich and poor countries.B．It results in a lack of access to technology in developing countries.C．It increases the cost of computer equipment in rich countries.D．It promotes global digital cooperation.14．From Paragraph 4, we know that ________.A．donating for technology is always the better optionB．the author does not provide opinions on this matterC．donating for technology and basic needs should be balancedD．donating for basic needs should be prioritized over technology15．What is the passage mainly about?A．Significance of information and communication technology.B．Serious consequences of over-emphasizing high technology.C．Technological trends guiding economic policy making.D．How to use donation money in the new age.There’s a Symphony Just Below the Surface — Can You Hear It?Imagine it’s your birthday, and your friends and family pool their money to get you the best gift you can imagine: tickets for fabulous seats to see your favorite musical act. But what if you got to the venue and something terrible had just happened to you? 16 . Even while facing the prospect of extreme difficulty in your life, you are so thrilled to see your favorite group that fora couple of hours, you can put all of that behind you.17 . That is the ability to suspend our fears and worries and focus on what we love. In the example of the concert, we know that when the music ends, we may go back to our concerns, but while it’s playing, there is nothing we can do about them, so we might as well just give in.Life always has its music, and we don’t need to be front-row center at a concert to hear it. Throughout our lives, no matter what else is going on, a melody is present. But we are often so focused on the present moment that we fail to hear the melody. 18 .We can become magnificent listeners to life, with enough practice. And let’s face it, this is something we were born to do, so the skill is there, waiting for us to employ it. We can tap into the music, and when we do find ourselves distracted from it, we can use consciousness to bring us right back. It is as simple as saying, “OK, I’m distracted again; I am going to start listening again.”19 .Life is always playing music, but we have to listen, and we listen by being present. We can do this. 20 . When we do this, we’ll discover that the symphony inside of us is magnificent.A．As humans, we have been given a wonderful giftB．These feelings may last several minutes or even last several hoursC．In a word, wisdom and patience are the things that listening to the music of life requires D．Soon, we will find that we have to redirect ourselves less and less, and we hear the music more and moreE．You’d broken your knees, say, or you learned of a failure of examF．The noise of our worry drowns out all the other things we might otherwise hear and enjoy G．We just need to realize and engage with the music of life that is always playing二、完形填空When Alex Lin was 11 years old, he read a(an) 21 article in the newspaper, which said that people were 22 old computers in backyards, throwing TVs into streams, and dumping(丢弃) cell phones in the garbage. This was dangerous because e waste contains harmful 23 that can leak into the environment, getting into crops, animals, water supplies—and people.Alex was really worried and decided to make it next project for WIN—the Westerly Innovations Network. Alex and six of his friends had 24 this organization to help solve community problems two years before.But what could they do about this project with e-waste? The team spent several weeks gathering information about the harmful chemicals in e waste and their 25 on humans. They learned how to dispose (处置) of e-waste 26 and how it could be recycled. Then, they sent out a survey and found only one in eight knew what e-waste was, let alone how to dispose of it.Alex and his friends went into 27 . They advertised in the local newspaper and 28 notices to students, asking residents to bring their 29 electronics to the school parking lot. The drive lasted two days, and they 30 over 9,500 kilograms of e waste.The next step was to set up a long-term e-waste drop-off center for the town. After some research, they’d learned that reusing is the best way to 31 electronic devices and it is seven times more 32 than recycling. So, they began learning to refurbish(翻新) computers themselves and distributed them to students who didn’t have their own. In this way, they could help students in the area and protect the environment at the same time.For a 33 solution to e waste, the drop off center wasn’t enough. Laws would have to be passed. In 2016,WIN helped 34 for an e waste bill in their town, which required companies that manufactured or sold electronics to take back e waste. The bill clearly 35 the dumping of e waste.Because of the work of WIN, more and more people, like Alex and his team, are getting the message about safe disposal of e-waste. As Alex says, “Today’s technology should not become tomorrow’s harmful garbage.21．A．alarming B．terrifying C．embarrassing D．inspiring 22．A．carrying B．burying C．taking D．destroying 23．A．subjects B．restrictions C．bacterial D．chemicals 24．A．developed B．recognized C．formed D．restored 25．A．affects B．effects C．consequences D．attempts 26．A．properly B．instantly C．constantly D．gradually 27．A．enthusiasm B．action C．behavior D．energy 28．A．distributed B．contributed C．established D．conducted 29．A．unexpected B．unwanted C．useless D．meaningless 30．A．obtained B．collected C．ordered D．donated 31．A．break down B．take in C．expose to D．deal with 32．A．efficient B．economical C．effective D．beneficial 33．A．lasting B．physical C．original D．crucial 34．A．push B．delay C．accept D．pass 35．A．prevents B．permits C．predicts D．forbids三、语法填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Some people think that Catholicschools are 51.for cultivating religious beliefs. However, many Catholicschools concentrate on 52.the behavior of kids who have done poorly inpublic schools. In public schools there are 53.rules. Rules are plentiful atCatholic schools, and someone is always making sure they are 54..Most people believe that nuns (修女) are kind women who have 55.their lives to their religion.

However, many people doubt it.Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(Each item: 2)Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 71 to 75 are based on the same passage or dialog.Elderly people respond best to a calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their behavior can sometimes be difficult to handle. If they get excited or upset then they may become more confused and more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patient and not to get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary.Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and direct."Good morning, Mother. This is Fiona, your daughter. It's eight o'clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs."When the elderly person makes confused statements, e.g. about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct him in a calm matter-of-fact fashion: "You don't work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?" We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, and newspapers. These assist usto organize and direct our behavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time to compensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different boxes. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, addresses or shopping lists could help in individual cases.71. When do elderly people respond best?A. When they are calm and unhurried.B. When people tell them to be calm and unhurried.C. When their environment is calm and unhurried.D. When others are calm and unhurried.72. What should you encourage old people to do?A. To do as little as possible.B. To do as much as they can.C. To help others when needed.D. To be patient and not get upset.73. How should we provide information to old people with failing memories?A. By being helpful.B. By being direct.C. By being sensitive.D. By being obvious.74. What is the purpose of information provided on such things as signposts?A. To help us organize and direct our behavior.B. To help us make use of newspapers.C. To help us correct other people.D. To help us understand statements.75. Besides diaries, what else can help old people remember significant coming events?A. Labels.B. Reminder boards.C. Information cards.D. Photos.Questions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.Another example of the dangers of a restricted diet may be seen in the disease known as "beri-beri" (脚气病), which used to affect large numbers of Eastern peoples who lived mainly on rice. In the early years of the 20th century, a Dutch scientist named Eijkman was trying to discover the cause of beri-beri. At first he thought it was transmitted (传送) by a germ (细菌). He was working in a Japanese hospital, where the patients were fed on rice which had had the external husk (壳) removed from the grain, called "white rice." It was thought this would be easier for weak, sick people to digest.Eijkman thought his germ theory was confirmed when he noticed the chickens in the hospital yard, which were fed on scraps (碎片) from the patients' plates, were also showing signs of the disease. He then tried to isolate the germ he thought was causing the disease, but his experiments were interrupted by a hospital official, who ruled that the huskless polished rice was too good for chickens. The chickens should be fed cheap rice with the external covering still on the grain, called "brown rice."Eijkman noticed that the chickens began to recover on the new diet. He began to consider the possibility that eating brown rice somehow prevented or cured beri-beri—even that a lack of some ingredient in the husk might be the cause of the disease. Indeed this was the case. The element needed to prevent beri-beri was shortly afterwards isolated from rice husks and is now known as Vitamin B. The white rice, though more expensive, was keeping alive the disease the hospital was trying to cure.76. From the context, what do you think the author mentions in the paragraph that is just before this first paragraph?A. One example of the importance of vitamins.B. One example of the benefits of eating healthy foods.C. One example of the dangers of a restricted diet.D. One example of the benefits of various vitamins.77. The disease "beri-beri" ________.A. kills large numbers of Western peoplesB. is a vitamin deficiency diseaseC. is transmitted by diseased riceD. can be caught from diseased chickens78. The chickens Eijkman noticed in the hospital yard ________.A. couldn't digest the huskless riceB. proved beri-beri is transmitted by germsC. were later cooked for the patients' foodD. were suffering from vitamin deficiency79. Huskless, white rice ________.A. was cheaper than brown riceB. was less beneficial to the body than brown riceC. was more beneficial to the body than brown riceD. cured beri-beri80. The ingredient missing from white rice ________.A. was Vitamin BB. did not affect the chickensC. was named the Eijkman vitaminD. has never been accurately identifiedQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.81. When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.82. The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that _________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly Chinese womenB. Chinese families get together to enjoy the Harvest Moon FestivalC. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon FestivalD. people may be able to put off death for an important event83. Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.84. What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.85. What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.Quiz1题号答案1.B2.A3.C4.D5.B6.D7.C8.D9.C 10. A11.A 12.D 13.C 14.A 15.A 16.A 17.D 18.C 19.D 20.
