Three grade 11 students from Harbour View High School, Canada, wanted to convey their message of fighting climate change to a younger audience. So, they wrote a children’s book named Keeping It Cool as part of a project.
Upon receiving their first order of 12 copies, Claire Malco, the illustrator of the book, vividly recalls the moment when the realization struck. “I just sat there with my mouth open and was like, wow, this is actually happening,” Malco told CBC News.
Coauthored by Joanna Jackson and Olivia Jordan, the book employs age-appropriate analogies (类比), coupled with vibrant illustrations, to promote actions kids can take against climate change. To explain the concept of the atmosphere, for example, the young authors drew a bubble(气泡) around Earth throughout the story. They also call for actions, such as planting trees and vegetable gardens – explaining how plants absorb CO2 from the “bubble” atmosphere just like a vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器). The book also tells kids how they can avoid polluting the bubble by trying to walk, bike or scoot instead of taking a car or bus.
“The entire second half of the book is just things kids can do without needing their parents’ support … We wanted it to be something that every kid could finish,” Jordan explained to CBC News.
On Earth Day, the students visited a local elementary school where they read their stories and facilitated discussions about the text with every grade 5 class. They spread awareness that, regardless of age, anybody can help make a positive impact on Earth’s climate.“Educating students was the intention when writing this book. Having the opportunity to present to 10 different classes helped us gain insight on how to better our presentation and content, as well as see the impact this book will have on students,” the students told Our Canada Project.
4. Why did the three students write Keeping It Cool
A. To change a younger audience. B. To show their talent for illustrating.
C. To describe environmental problems. D. To inform kids of handling climate change.
5. What does the underlined word “vibrant” mean in paragraph 3
A. Vivid. B. Ordinary. C. Complex. D. Abstract.
6 What did the students do to promote the book in an elementary school
A. They discussed the text with 5 classes. B. They wrote the book with the students.
C. They did a presentation in every class. D. They inspired discussions about the text.
7. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A news report. B. A book review. C. A children’s book. D. A diary.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲述了三位来自加拿大Harbour View高中的11年级学生为了向年轻人传达他们对抗气候变化的信息,他们写了一本名为《Keeping It Cool》的儿童书。
4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Three grade 11 students from Harbour View High School, Canada, wanted to convey their message of fighting climate change to a younger audience. So, they wrote a children’s book named Keeping It Cool as part of a project.”(三位来自加拿大Harbour View高中的11年级学生想要向年轻人传达他们对抗气候变化的信息,所以他们写了一本名为《Keeping It Cool》的儿童书作为一个项目的一部分。)可知,他们写这本书的目的是为了让孩子们了解如何应对气候变化。故选D
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“the book employs age-appropriate analogies (类比), coupled with vibrant illustrations, to promote actions kids can take against climate change.”(这本书使用了适合年龄的类比,并配以vibrant的插图,来推广孩子们可以采取的对抗气候变化的行动。)可知,书籍是写给孩子的,所以要配上生动的插图。这里的“vibrant”应该是指插图生动,色彩鲜艳。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“On Earth Day, the students visited a local elementary school where they read their stories and facilitated discussions about the text with every grade 5 class.”(在地球日,学生们访问了当地的一所小学,他们在每个五年级的课堂上阅读他们的故事,并引导关于文本的讨论。)可知,他们在小学推广这本书的方式是在每个五年级的课堂上引导关于文本的讨论。故选D
【7题详解】
推理判断题。短文要讲述了三位来自加拿大Harbour View高中的11年级学生为了向年轻人传达他们对抗气候变化的信息,他们写了一本名为《Keeping It Cool》的儿童书。再根据文章的内容和语言风格,可以判断这是一篇新闻报道。故选A
C
On Nov 11, an Australian jockey (骑师) got hurt after his horse “broke down” during a horse race in Hong Kong. Though the jockey is safe now, his horse was not so lucky. Since the horse’s leg injury would have led to its death, vets euthanized (实施安乐死) it in front of the audience on the spot. Falling off a horse at high speed has a big risk of injury. You can say it’s the jockey’s choice to take part in the sport. But what about the horses
This is not the first time that animals have been harmed because of animal entertainment-related sports. For example, about 180,000 bulls (公牛) are killed in bullfights around the world, with many more injured in bullfight events every year, according to Human Society International, an organization promoting the human-animal relationship globally. Hunters shoot more than 800 lions in South Africa, reported World Animal Protection.
To help these animals, animal lovers have started many campaigns , which seem to be taking effect. In June, Churchill Downs, the site of the famous Kentucky Derby in the US, stopped all horse racing, originally set to run until July 3. Circuses using animals have been banned by many countries around the world in recent years due to animal welfare worries, according to the website Four Paws.
Animals play an important part in our lives and are more than tools for sports and entertainment. The human-animal bond can be seen in all kinds of places. Service animals can help people in their jobs and animals are also used to help and care for people with illnesses and who have experienced abuse or mental illness. “We can have our sports, drinks, lively parties, and beautiful hats but we can leave animals out of it,” reported Vox.
8. Why did the author mention a horse’s death in Hong Kong
A. To introduce the topic. B. To describe the game’s details.
C. To show his sympathy to the jokey. D. To illustrate his attitude to the issue.
9. How are paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 developed
A. By stating an argument. B. By giving an example.
C. By making a comparison. D. By following time order.
10. What message does Vox seem to convey in the last paragraph
A. We should keep away from animals. B. We can entertain but do not hurt animals.
C. We should offer some drinks to animals. D. We should do some activities with animals.
11. What is the best tittle of this passage
A. A Horse Was Euthanized in A Game B. Animal Entertainment Should Be Banned
C. Death of Horses Raise Concern about Animals D. Some Campaigns Were Held to Protect Animals
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章通过一匹马的死亡引出了关于与动物有关的娱乐活动导致人受伤的现象,列举了相关案件以及作者对此的看法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Since the horse’s leg injury would have led to its death, vets euthanized (实施安乐死) it in front of the audience on the spot. Falling off a horse at high speed has a big risk of injury. You can say it’s the jockey’s choice to take part in the sport. But what about the horses (由于这匹马的腿部受伤会导致它的死亡,兽医当场在观众面前对它实施了安乐死。从马上高速摔下来有很大的受伤风险。你可以说参加这项运动是骑师的选择。但是马呢?)”可推知,作者提到香港一匹马的死亡是为了引出话题。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“For example, about 180,000 bulls (公牛) are killed in bullfights around the world, with many more injured in bullfight events every year, according to Human Society International, an organization promoting the human-animal relationship globally.(例如,根据促进全球人与动物关系的组织“国际人类协会”的数据,全球每年约有18万头公牛在斗牛中被杀,还有更多的人在斗牛活动中受伤)”以及第三段“To help these animals, animal lovers have started many campaigns , which seem to be taking effect. In June, Churchill Downs, the site of the famous Kentucky Derby in the US, stopped all horse racing, originally set to run until July 3.(为了帮助这些动物,动物爱好者发起了许多活动,这些活动似乎正在起作用。今年6月,美国著名的肯塔基赛马的举办地邱吉尔唐斯停止了所有原定于7月3日举行的赛马活动)”可推知,第2段和第3段通过举例说明展开。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““We can have our sports, drinks, lively parties, and beautiful hats but we can leave animals out of it,” reported Vox.(“我们可以运动、喝酒、参加热闹的派对、戴漂亮的帽子——但我们不能把动物排除在外,”Vox报道)”可推知,Vox在最后一段似乎传达了我们应该和动物一起做一些活动。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“On Nov 11, an Australian jockey (骑师) got hurt after his horse “broke down” during a horse race in Hong Kong. Though the jockey is safe now, his horse was not so lucky. Since the horse’s leg injury would have led to its death, vets euthanized (实施安乐死) it in front of the audience on the spot. Falling off a horse at high speed has a big risk of injury. You can say it’s the jockey’s choice to take part in the sport. But what about the horses (11月11日,一名澳大利亚骑师在香港的一场赛马比赛中受伤,原因是他的马“抛锚”了。虽然骑师现在安全了,但他的马就没那么幸运了。由于这匹马的腿部受伤会导致它的死亡,兽医当场在观众面前对它实施了安乐死。从马上高速摔下来有很大的受伤风险。你可以说参加这项运动是骑师的选择。但是马呢?)”结合文章通过一匹马的死亡引出了关于与动物有关的娱乐活动导致人受伤的现象,列举了相关案件以及作者对此的看法。可知,C选项“马的死亡引起了人们对动物的关注”最符合文章标题。故选C。
D
Since 2001, robotic tools have revolutionized (彻底改变) the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.
One example is telesurgery. Telesurgery, or remote surgery, is the use of technology that allows a surgeon to perform a procedure on a patient who is not in the same physical location. Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient should a wireless connection drop during surgery, but China has made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.
China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level (微米级别) eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city, reported China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who operated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province. “If everything goes well, 5G remote micron ophthalmic (眼科的) surgery will be available to humans within half a year,” said Professor Lin Haotian, whose team led this trial.
Looking to the future, people hope that remote surgery could be regularly used to help injured soldiers on the battlefield while keeping surgeons at a safe distance. Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass human surgeons.
Smart medical care has made breakthroughs during the past years at home and abroad. The booming (飞速发展的) online medical service meets the needs of the people and helps improve the medical treatment process.
12. What can we learn about telesurgery
A. It is widely used in eye surgery.
B. It is harmful to patients during surgery.
C. It achieved the 5G-based wireless remote surgery.
D. It reduced surgeons’ stress and physical demands.
13. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning examples in paragraph 3
A. To emphasize the importance of telesurgery.
B. To show the advancements in remote surgery.
C. To analyse the complexity of robotic surgery.
D. To explain the development of 5G technology.
14. What can we infer about medical robots from the last two paragraphs
A. They replace surgeons successfully.
B. Their service has satisfied people’s needs.
C. Their systems have been widely promoted.
D. Their development still has a long way to go.
15. What is the text mainly about

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient should a wireless connection drop during surgery, but China has made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.(通常情况下,远程手术依赖于有线连接,因为担心在手术过程中无线连接中断会对患者造成伤害,但中国在基于5G技术的无线远程手术方面取得了一些进展)”和第三段中“China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000 kilometers, reported CGTN.(据中国国际电视台报道,2019年3月,中国实现了第一次基于5G的远程手术,在三亚的一名外科医生和北京的一名患者之间进行了脑部手术,距离总计近3000公里)”可知,中国已经完成了5G无线远程手术。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。第二段中“China has made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.(中国在基于5G技术的无线远程手术方面取得了多项进展)”提出中国在基于5G技术的无线远程手术方面取得了多项进展,接着第三段“China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level (微米级别) eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city, reported China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who operated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province. “If everything goes well, 5G remote micron ophthalmic (眼科的) surgery will be available to humans within half a year,” said Professor Lin Haotian, whose team led this trial.(据中国国际电视台报道,2019年3月,中国实现了第一次基于5G的远程手术,在三亚的一名外科医生和北京的一名患者之间进行了脑部手术,距离总计近3000公里。据《中国日报》报道,最近,一组外科医生成功地在另一个城市的兔子身上完成了远程微米级眼科手术。这些兔子来自广东省广州中山大学,而通过5G机器人对它们进行手术的手术团队来自海南省海口市海南眼科医院。“如果一切顺利,5G远程微米眼科手术将在半年内提供给人类,”林浩天教授说,他的团队领导了这项试验)”中列举了中国在2019年3月进行的脑部5G远程手术和最近在兔子身上完成的远程微米级眼科手术。由此推知,作者在第三段提到两个例子的目的是证明5G远程手术取得的进步。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Looking to the future(展望未来)”和“Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass human surgeons.(一些人甚至认为,机器人系统与人工智能相结合,有一天可能会超越人类外科医生)”可推知,医疗机器人尚处于发展阶段,还有还有很长的路要走。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Since 2001, robotic tools have caused great changes in the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.(自2001年以来,机器人工具在手术实践中引起了巨大的变化。它们大大减轻了外科医生通常承受的压力和体力要求,并使某些手术成为可能)”以及通读全文可知,文章主要讲述的是医疗机器人技术的进步。故选B项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。
The science of setting goals.
It’s the time of year when we think to ourselves: our New Year’s resolutions will totally work out this time. ___16___. But what if this year really could be different Kelly McGonigal, a psychologist, shares four tips.
Choose a goal that matters not just an easy win. Our brains love rewards, so we often set simple goals that make it easy to check off boxes. But if that’s all are about, no wonder we end up abandoning them so quickly. A meaningful goal requires going deeper. ___17___. For example, if you want to quit eating junk food, ask why you want to quit it. Then, if you want to quit it for your health, ask why you want good health.
___18___.When we set goals, it’s easy to focus on that magical ending. But we can’t control outcomes. We have to inch toward them, one choice at a time. Ask yourself, “What is the smallest thing I can do today that helps me reach my goal ” If you make daily choices that are consistent with your goal over and over again, you will eventually reach it.
Frame your goals positively. Focusing on what you want to bring into your life –not what you want to avoid – will make you more likely to actually pursue it. “Any sort of avoidance is going to trigger inhibition systems. ___19___,” says McGonigal.
Prepare for failure. Moments of failure are inevitable, but most of us abandon the goal entirely when minor failures and setbacks start piling up. Your task is not to avoid failures, but to plan for them. Ask yourself, “How am I likely to fail ” For example, if you’re likely to choose unhealthy meals when you’re hungry, carry a light snack that can tide you over. ___20___.
A. Focus on the process, not the outcome
B. Psychologists call this an emergency plan
C. It really drives home why that goal matters
D. Never mind that we abandoned them very quickly
E. How you describe your goal makes a big difference
F. Think about what you want, and then ask yourself why
G. But positive goals are going to trigger approach and reward motivation
【答案】16. D 17. F 18. A 19. G 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何有效地制定新年目标。
【16题详解】
根据空前“It’s the time of year when we think to ourselves: our New Year’s resolutions will totally work out this time.(这是一年中我们思考的时候:我们的新年决心在这个时候完全实现。)”可知,空前提到我们的新年决心在这个时候完全实现,故D项“不要介意我们如此快地抛弃它们”符合,新年决心在这个时候完全实现,故不用介意可以马上抛弃它们了,D项中的them指代的就是上文中的New Year’s resolutions,故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据空后“For example, if you want to quit eating junk food, ask why you want to quit it. Then, if you want to quit it for your health, ask why you want good health.(比如说,如果你想要戒掉垃圾食品,问问你自己为什么想要戒掉它。然后,如果你是为了健康戒掉它,问问你自己你为什么想要健康。)”可知,空后举出了实例,在制定目标前需要询问自己具体的原因,故此处F项“思考自己想要什么,并问你自己为什么”符合,本空提出要询问自己为什么,空后给出具体的例子,故选F项。
【18题详解】
根据空后“When we set goals, it’s easy to focus on that magical ending. But we can’t control outcomes.(当我们制定目标,很容易把专注力放在神奇的结局上。但是我们不能控制结果。)”可知,空后提出我们制定目标而不能控制结果,故A项“注重过程,而非结果”符合,制定目标时,不要太专注结果,故选A项。
【19题详解】
根据空前“Focusing on what you want to bring into your life –not what you want to avoid – will make you more likely to actually pursue it. “Any sort of avoidance is going to trigger inhibition systems.(专注于你想把什么带到你的生活中,而不是你想要避免什么会让你更有可能真正追求它。任何形式的回避都会触发控制系统。)”可知,空前提到在制定目标时,不能回避,而需要真正的追求。且空前一句提到了任何形式的回避都会触发控制系统,故此处G项“但是积极的目标会触发方法和奖励的动力”符合,回避会触发控制系统,然而积极的目标则会触发方法和奖励动力,积极的目标能给你带来方法和奖励,故选G项。
【20题详解】
根据空前“For example, if you’re likely to choose unhealthy meals when you’re hungry, carry a light snack that can tide you over.(比如说,如果你在饿的时候可能会选择不健康的食物,那就带上一份能让你度过难关的清淡零食。)”可知,B项“心理学家称之为应急计划”是前文的顺承,在饿了可能会选择不健康的食物时,就带上一份清淡零食来应急,故心理学家称之为应急计划,B项中的this指代空前的这一操作,故选B项。
第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分30分)

One sunny Sunday morning, Lily woke up to an unusual silence in the house. Normally, the smell of pancakes would float through the air as her mom busied herself in the kitchen, but today there was nothing. Concerned, Lily decided to check on her mom.
She knocked softly on her bedroom door. “Mom, are you okay ” she called out. A raspy voice responded, “I’m not feeling too well, sweetheart. I’ve caught a bad cold. I don’t want you getting sick too. You can fix yourself some toast for breakfast, and I’ll stay in bed.”
Lily felt sympathy for her mom. She must be feeling really under the weather if she couldn’t even make breakfast. Determined to help, Lily decided to take charge of the morning routine. After enjoying her simple breakfast of toast, Lily noticed the sink (洗涤池) was filled with dishes. Without hesitation, she rolled up her sleeves and began washing them, just as her mom usually did. She washed each plate and glass thoroughly until they were shiny, determined to make the kitchen look as tidy as possible.
But Lily wanted to do more to help her mom feel better. Suddenly, inspiration struck. Lily remembered her mom mentioning that she had planned to plant flowers in the garden today. Maybe if she finished the job for her, it would bring a smile to her face. With newfound purpose, Lily put on her gardening gloves and headed outside. As she worked, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction as she carefully planted each flower, imagining her mom’s delight when she saw them producing flowers.

With newfound knowledge, Lily hurried back outside and adjusted the position of the plants, making sure they received enough sunlight. She also watered them carefully, making sure not to overdo it. As she worked, Lily felt a sense of pride in her newfound gardening skills. She had turned a potential disaster into an opportunity to learn and grow.
Later that afternoon, Lily’s mom emerged from her room feeling a bit better, she stepped into the garden. “Lily, what a beautiful surprise!” she exclaimed, her eyes lighting up with joy. “Thank you for taking care of the garden for me.” Lily beamed at her mom, feeling a swell of pride in her chest. Today, she had not only helped his mom but had also learned the importance of perseverance and problem-solving. And as they admired the blooming flowers together, Lily knew that she had made her mom proud.

Three grade 11 students from Harbour View High School, Canada, wanted to convey their message of fighting climate change to a younger audience. So, they wrote a children’s book named Keeping It Cool as part of a project.
Upon receiving their first order of 12 copies, Claire Malco, the illustrator of the book, vividly recalls the moment when the realization struck. “I just sat there with my mouth open and was like, wow, this is actually happening,” Malco told CBC News.
Coauthored by Joanna Jackson and Olivia Jordan, the book employs age-appropriate analogies (类比), coupled with vibrant illustrations, to promote actions kids can take against climate change. To explain the concept of the atmosphere, for example, the young authors drew a bubble(气泡) around Earth throughout the story. They also call for actions, such as planting trees and vegetable gardens – explaining how plants absorb CO2 from the “bubble” atmosphere just like a vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器). The book also tells kids how they can avoid polluting the bubble by trying to walk, bike or scoot instead of taking a car or bus.
“The entire second half of the book is just things kids can do without needing their parents’ support … We wanted it to be something that every kid could finish” Jordan explained to CBC News.
On Earth Day, the students visited a local elementary school where they read their stories and facilitated discussions about the text with every grade 5 class. They spread awareness that, regardless of age, anybody can help make a positive impact on Earth’s climate.“Educating students was the intention when writing this book. Having the opportunity to present to 10 different classes helped us gain insight on how to better our presentation and content, as well as see the impact this book will have on students,” the students told Our Canada Project.
4. Why did the three students write Keeping It Cool
A. To change a younger audience. B. To show their talent for illustrating.
C. To describe environmental problems. D. To inform kids of handling climate change.
5. What does the underlined word “vibrant” mean in paragraph 3
A. Vivid. B. Ordinary. C. Complex. D. Abstract.
6. What did the students do to promote the book in an elementary school
A. They discussed the text with 5 classes. B. They wrote the book with the students.
C. They did a presentation in every class. D. They inspired discussions about the text.
7 Where is the text probably taken from
A. A news report. B. A book review. C. A children’s book. D. A diary.
C
On Nov 11, an Australian jockey (骑师) got hurt after his horse “broke down” during a horse race in Hong Kong. Though the jockey is safe now, his horse was not so lucky. Since the horse’s leg injury would have led to its death, vets euthanized (实施安乐死) it in front of the audience on the spot. Falling off a horse at high speed has a big risk of injury. You can say it’s the jockey’s choice to take part in the sport. But what about the horses
This is not the first time that animals have been harmed because of animal entertainment-related sports. For example, about 180,000 bulls (公牛) are killed in bullfights around the world, with many more injured in bullfight events every year, according to Human Society International, an organization promoting the human-animal relationship globally. Hunters shoot more than 800 lions in South Africa, reported World Animal Protection.
To help these animals, animal lovers have started many campaigns , which seem to be taking effect. In June, Churchill Downs, the site of the famous Kentucky Derby in the US, stopped all horse racing, originally set to run until July 3. Circuses using animals have been banned by many countries around the world in recent years due to animal welfare worries, according to the website Four Paws.
Animals play an important part in our lives and are more than tools for sports and entertainment. The human-animal bond can be seen in all kinds of places. Service animals can help people in their jobs and animals are also used to help and care for people with illnesses and who have experienced abuse or mental illness. “We can have our sports, drinks, lively parties, and beautiful hats but we can leave animals out of it,” reported Vox.
8. Why did the author mention a horse’s death in Hong Kong
A. To introduce the topic. B. To describe the game’s details.
C. To show his sympathy to the jokey. D. To illustrate his attitude to the issue.
9. How are paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 developed
A. By stating an argument. B. By giving an example.
C. By making a comparison. D. By following time order.
10. What message does Vox seem to convey in the last paragraph
A. We should keep away from animals. B. We can entertain but do not hurt animals.
C. We should offer some drinks to animals. D. We should do some activities with animals.
11. What is the best tittle of this passage
A. A Horse Was Euthanized in A Game B. Animal Entertainment Should Be Banned
C. Death of Horses Raise Concern about Animals D. Some Campaigns Were Held to Protect Animals
D
Since 2001, robotic tools have revolutionized (彻底改变) the practice of surgery. They have greatly reduced the stress and physical demands normally placed on surgeons and have made certain procedures possible.
One example is telesurgery. Telesurgery, or remote surgery, is the use of technology that allows a surgeon to perform a procedure on a patient who is not in the same physical location. Normally, telesurgery relies on a wired connection due to concerns of harming the patient should a wireless connection drop during surgery, but China has made several advancements in wireless telesurgery based on 5G technology.
China achieved the first 5G-based remote operation in March 2019 involving a brain surgery procedure between a surgeon in Sanya and a patient in Beijing, a distance totaling nearly 3,000 kilometers, reported CGTN. More recently, a team of surgeons successfully completed remote micron-level (微米级别) eye surgery on rabbits located in a different city, reported China Daily. The rabbits were at the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, whereas the surgical team who operated on them via a 5G robot were at the Hainan Eye Hospital in Haikou, Hainan province. “If everything goes well, 5G remote micron ophthalmic (眼科的) surgery will be available to humans within half a year,” said Professor Lin Haotian, whose team led this trial.
Looking to the future, people hope that remote surgery could be regularly used to help injured soldiers on the battlefield while keeping surgeons at a safe distance. Some even believe that robotic systems, combined with AI, could one day surpass human surgeons.
Smart medical care has made breakthroughs during the past years at home and abroad. The booming (飞速发展的) online medical service meets the needs of the people and helps improve the medical treatment process.

The science of setting goals.
It’s the time of year when we think to ourselves: our New Year’s resolutions will totally work out this time. ___16___. But what if this year really could be different Kelly McGonigal, a psychologist, shares four tips.
Choose a goal that matters, not just an easy win. Our brains love rewards, so we often set simple goals that make it easy to check off boxes. But if that’s all are about, no wonder we end up abandoning them so quickly. A meaningful goal requires going deeper. ___17___. For example, if you want to quit eating junk food, ask why you want to quit it. Then, if you want to quit it for your health, ask why you want good health.
___18___.When we set goals, it’s easy to focus on that magical ending. But we can’t control outcomes. We have to inch toward them, one choice at a time. Ask yourself, “What is the smallest thing I can do today that helps me reach my goal ” If you make daily choices that are consistent with your goal over and over again, you will eventually reach it.
Frame your goals positively. Focusing on what you want to bring into your life –not what you want to avoid – will make you more likely to actually pursue it. “Any sort of avoidance is going to trigger inhibition systems. ___19___,” says McGonigal.
Prepare for failure. Moments of failure are inevitable, but most of us abandon the goal entirely when minor failures and setbacks start piling up. Your task is not to avoid failures, but to plan for them. Ask yourself, “How am I likely to fail ” For example, if you’re likely to choose unhealthy meals when you’re hungry, carry a light snack that can tide you over. ___20___.
A. Focus on the process, not the outcome
B. Psychologists call this an emergency plan
C. It really drives home why that goal matters
D. Never mind that we abandoned them very quickly
E. How you describe your goal makes a big difference
F. Think about what you want, and then ask yourself why
G. But positive goals are going to trigger approach and reward motivation

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。
One sunny Sunday morning, Lily woke up to an unusual silence in the house. Normally, the smell of pancakes would float through the air as her mom busied herself in the kitchen, but today there was nothing. Concerned, Lily decided to check on her mom.
She knocked softly on her bedroom door. “Mom, are you okay ” she called out. A raspy voice responded, “I’m not feeling too well, sweetheart. I’ve caught a bad cold. I don’t want you getting sick too. You can fix yourself some toast for breakfast, and I’ll stay in bed.”
Lily felt sympathy for her mom. She must be feeling really under the weather if she couldn’t even make breakfast. Determined to help, Lily decided to take charge of the morning routine. After enjoying her simple breakfast of toast, Lily noticed the sink (洗涤池) was filled with dishes. Without hesitation, she rolled up her sleeves and began washing them, just as her mom usually did. She washed each plate and glass thoroughly until they were shiny, determined to make the kitchen look as tidy as possible.
But Lily wanted to do more to help her mom feel better. Suddenly, inspiration struck. Lily remembered her mom mentioning that she had planned to plant flowers in the garden today. Maybe if she finished the job for her, it would bring a smile to her face. With newfound purpose, Lily put on her gardening gloves and headed outside. As she worked, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction as she carefully planted each flower, imagining her mom’s delight when she saw them producing flowers.
