11、asy-On ShoesIn 2022, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their sol

12、ution: the Fly Ease. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike Fly Ease shoes sells for $ 130.An Airport for Drones (无人机）As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: What kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in

13、Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”.

16、chest operation and he required 13 units (3.4 gallons) of blood afterwards. The blood donations saved his life, and he decided that once he turned 18, he would begin donating blood as regularly as he could.More than 60 years and almost 1,200 donations later, Harrison, whose blood contains an antibod

17、y(抗体) that has saved the lives of 2.4 million babies from miscarriages (流产), retired as a blood donor on May 11. Harrisons blood is valuable because he naturally produces Rh-negative blood, which contains Rh-positive antibodies. His blood has been used to create anti-D in Australia since 1967.“Every

18、 bottle of Anti-D ever made in Australia has James in it,” Robyn Barlow, the Rh program director told the Sydney Morning Herald. “Its an amazing thing. He has saved millions of babies. I cry just thinking about it.” Since then, Harrison has donated between 500 and 800 milliliters of blood almost eve

19、ry week. Hes made 1,162 donations from his right arm and 10 from his left.“Id keep going if they let me,” Harrison told the Herald. His doctors said it was time to stop the donations and they certainly dont take them lightly. They had already extended the age limit for blood donations for him, and t

20、heyre cutting him off now to protect his health. He made his final donation surrounded by some of the mothers and babies who his blood helped save.Harrisons retirement is a blow to the Rh treatment program in Australia. Only 160 donors support the program, and finding new donors has proven to be dif

21、ficult. But Harrisons retirement from giving blood doesnt mean hes completely out of the game. Scientists are collecting and cataloging his DNA to create a library of antibodies and white blood cells that could be the future of the anti-D program in Australia.24.

24、es to contribute to the Rh program.D. His DNA is kept in a library for future study.27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? _.A. A Unique Man with a Rare Blood TypeB.

25、asing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport” idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing ga

26、te announcements and so on.This is all changing.Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to “create a calm, relaxed atmosphere” without being disturbed by announcements.“Passengers can relax while

27、they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finland a country where the tourism slogan is “Silence, Please” became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept.As part of its commitment to quieting t

28、hings down, announcements for flights are made only in boarding gate areas.Lost track of time in the shop?Too bad.Nobodys going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional emergency circumstances.Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, say

29、s that improved flight information display systems and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicate with passengers.At Munich Airport, InfoGate kiosks allow for video-based, face-to-face conversation with a live customer servic

30、e representative in the travelers language of choice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers can tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking times to their destinations.Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a tem

31、ple.There will continue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements, along with boarding calls.But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has been adopted in Helsinki.28. What is Angela Gittens opinion on the silent airport concept? _.A. It makes airport noi

32、se-free.B. It is intended for passengers benefit.C. It has changed international airports reputation.D. It has encouraged the service industry in airports.29.

33、ours.D. The “you are here” display.30. Why is Munich Airport mentioned in the next? _.A. To show its popularity.B. To introduce InfoGate kiosks.C. To prove Heikki Koskis words.D. To be compared with Helsinki Airport.31. What is the best title for the text? _.A. Silence, please. This is an airport!B.

34、 Can airports be as quiet as temples?C. Silent airports all around the worldD. Technology helps airports become interactiveDIs any economist so dull as to criticize Christmas? At first glance, the holiday season in western economies seems a treat for those concerned with such vagaries (奇想) as GDP gr

35、owth. After all, everyone is spending; in America, retailers make 25% of their yearly sales and 60% of their profits between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even so, economists find something to worry about in the nature of the purchases being made.Much of the holiday spending is on gifts for others. At

36、 the simplest level, giving gifts involves the giver thinking of something that the recipient(接受者) would like he tries to guess her preferences, as economists say and then buying the gift and delivering it. Yet this guessing of preferences is not easy; indeed, it is often done badly. Every year, tie

37、s go unworn and books unread. And even if a gift is enjoyed, it may not be what the recipient would have bought if they had spent the money themselves.Interested in this mismatch between wants and gifts, in 1993 Joel Waldfogel, then an economist at Yale University, sought to estimate the difference

38、in dollar terms. In a research, he asked students two questions at the end of a holiday season: first, estimate the total amount paid (by the givers) for all the holiday gifts you received; second, apart from the sentimental value of the items, if you did not have them, how much would you be willing

39、 to pay to get them? His results were gloomy: on average, a gift was valued by the recipient well below the price paid by the giver.In addition, recipients may not know their own preferences very well. Some of the best gifts, after all, are unexpected items that you would never have thought of buyin

40、g, but which turn out to be especially well picked. And preference can change. So by giving a jazz CD, for example, the giver may be encouraging the recipient to enjoy something that was ignored before. This, a desire to build skills, is possibly the hope held by many parents who ignore their childr

41、ens desires for video games and buy them books instead.Finally, there are items that a recipient would like to receive but not purchase. If someone else buys them, however, they can be enjoyed guilt-free. This might explain the high volume of chocolate that changes over the holidays. Thus, the lesso

42、n for gift-givers is that you should try hard to guess the preference of each person on your list and then choose a gift that will have a high sentimental value.32. The word “sentimental” in Paragraph 3 is close to “_.”A. intelligentB. emotionalC. socialD. practical33. According to the text, which o

43、f the following statements is TRUE? _.A. Price is nothing but the factor when you give gifts.B. Chocolates will be blamed when people receive them as gifts.C. The receivers often overestimate the values of gifts.D. Wants do not always correspond to needs in gift-giving.34. Which of the following sta

44、tements can be inferred from the text? _.A. The gift-giver tries to ignore the actual needs of the receiver.B. The best gifts are well picked by the givers.C. In gift-giving, guessing preference is often a failure, so its the thought that counts.D. You have to take money into consideration when givi

The text is most likely taken from a _.A. users handbookB. medical journalC. travel magazineD. consumer-related report第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。If youve made a routine of a daily walk, congratulations!

46、es one simple mistake that could be putting your life at risk. Almost 129,000 pedestrians were injured, and 5,376 were killed in traffic crashes in the United States in 2022, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). 36 .Luckily, there are some steps you can take to stay safe on foot.

48、king against traffic instead of with it cut the risk of getting hit by a car by an average of 77%, according to the findings.39 . Well, if you walk the same direction youd drive, the cars closest to you are coming from behind. That means youd need to rely on the driver to see you and react if its co

49、ming up too closely. If the person behind the wheel is not absorbed, you could end up injuredor worse.On the other hand, when youre walking against traffic, you can see the cars heading toward you. Facing those vehicles lets you see danger coming and get out of the way if necessary, and you arent pu

If theres a sidewalk available, you should always use it B. Where it is convenient and clear, make sure to take the routeC. Next time yo
