house,cottage,flat or rented property,we all love and treasure our homes-so protectingyour property with a comprehensive home insurance policy should be a priority.But what should you considerwhen purchasing your next home insurance policy?Here are some key points.VALUE YOUR VALUABLESWe all take possessions away from the home,including items such as jewelry,mobile phones,tablets,andhandbags.When buying home insurance,always discuss this.A policy that provides overseas cover means you canoften save money on your travel policy-since you dont need to insure these items twice.WATCH OUT FOR WATERIf theres damage to your property caused by an escape of water,you may have additional costs in removingand replacing any other part of the building while accessing the source of the leak.Trace and access cover isimportant as it could save you a substantial amount of money should your property develop a leak.ACCIDENTS HAPPENOne in four home insurance policies dont include accidental damage cover.Accidental damage cover isrecommended as even the most careful person could accidentally knock their television when decorating or evenwhile cleaning the carpet.It may surprise you to learn comprehensive home insurancewhich includes all the important levels of coveras standard-may not cost as much as you might think.Leading insurance broker Higos Insurance Services recentlyrevealed that 66 percent of their clients have paid less than 240 for their new home insurance policy in 2023.21.How does overseas cover benefit a client?A.By including travel essentials in it.B.By enlarging coverage to home repairs.C.By avoiding double-insuring valuables.D.By offering discounts on travel packages.22.Which covers risks of loss or damage caused by a leaking roof?A.Property cover.B.Overseas cover.C.Accidental damage cover.D.Trace and access cover.23.Whom is this text most likely intended for?A.Property investors.B.Travel insurance buyers.C.Home insurance seekers.D.Personal finance enthusiasts.BWhen he flagged me down,I thought he was an elder collecting a“customs fee”,the few dollars it costs to usevillage roads that lead to many of Samoas sights.Hed been sitting lazily in a greying roadside shack(棚子)builtfor such occasions.Normally I wouldnt pick up a free rider.But I tried to live out a dream.Id wanted to go to Pulemelei Mound since Id heard it mentioned in an archaeology class years ago.The“mound”is actually a pyramid 40 feet high and roughly 200 feet across at its base.So,I asked,“Do you know howto get to Pulemelei Mound?“Mmm,”he said,raising his eyebrows in the classic Polynesian gesture for“yes”.“I need to pick up my car atthe mechanic but no hurry,Ill take you there first if you want.”Youd think that a giant pyramid would be a major sight,or at least something many people had heard of,butit isnt.My accidental friends raise of the eyebrows was the most promising prospect Id had in a week.We drove along the road in silence for a few minutes.Then my new friend broke the silence and,meanwhile,my hopes.“Ive never been to Pulemelei,”he said.“Ive lived here but I never thought of going.”My heart sank.But we pressed on,crossing a stream,walking through waist-high grass,and then another mile of hot walk until wefound a sign,There,barely visible,were the words:“Pulemelei Mound 150m”.The sign marked a dark tunnel ofjungle.Then the path opened to rays of sunshine.We climbed.And then,magic.We were standing on top of aPolynesian pyramid.Just then,my friend,obviously awed by what he saw,turned toward me,and placed his big Samoan hands onmy shoulders.In the most natural way,he bent down and kissed me gently on the cheek.“Thank you,”he said.24.Whats the purpose of the Samoan man flagging me down?A.To thumb a ride.B.To ask for directions.C.To collect a customs fee.D.To warn of a road accident.25.Which of the following words can best describe the author?A.Informed but rigid.B.Hesitant but agreeable.C.Skeptical and reserved.D.Curious and adventurous.26.Why did the Samoan man thank the author in the end?A.He had lived out his dream.B.He was taken to the mechanic.C.He enjoyed the authors company.D.He experienced the thrill of discovery.27.What is the passage mainly about?A.APolynesian village.B.Afamous Samoan sight.C.Achance encounter.D.An elder protecting local roads.CMy mother died of breast cancer when she was merely 50 in 1970.Afterwards,the comment repeated mostoften was:“Youll need to be careful for the rest of your life because it may have been passed to you.”In 1994,thefirst ever breast cancer gene testing arrived.I jumped right to it and tested negative.Im thankful for the sciencethat has given me this preventive screening(筛查).Good for me,but is it good for everyone?Heres the catch.Research on genetic disease has been based mostly on European people,like me.The samewent to the mapping of the human genes.The problem is that we know little about how new treatments might workfor people of other races.If we diversify patients in clinical trials,we can realize the promise of personalizedmedicine for everyone,not just white patients.Faced with the unfair phenomena in medical research,what shouldwe do to resolve the problem?Not only do we need more diverse populations participating in research,but we also need diversity amongbiomedical researchers and medical professionals to make efforts.That makes research stronger and builds trustwith diverse communities.A medical team is working on this now.They are building a diverse next generation ofgene editing researchers by teaching high school and community college students from different backgrounds aboutpromising technologies like gene editing to encourage them to become future researchers.This sort of educationaloutreach can also help to build trust in the medical and research communities.The team leader,John Cooper,PhD,has been outspoken about the current inequalities of delivering new technologies to all people at a fair cost.Numerous scientists and medical leaders are working to change the situation.While science wasnt yet farenough along to save my mother,I have harvested the benefits of advanced research and so should we all.28.What is the function of paragraph 1?A.To explain the cause of her mothers cancer.B.To show her concerns over medical inequalities.C.To indicate the side effects of genetic testing.D.To emphasize the progress in the medical field.29.What does the underlined words“the catch”in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Aprevious study.B.An urgent appeal.C.An underlying issue.D.Aworkable solution.30.What might enable new treatments to benefit all?A.Conducting research on genetic diseases.B.Delivering speeches to interested students.C.Building confidence in potential medical researchers.D.Popularizing technologies in various communities.31.What is the authors attitude towards the advanced research?A.Supportive.B.Dismissive.C.Opposed.D.Impartial.DLate last year,in the days before the Dosakian election,a video featuring a well-known journalist and a keycandidate circulated on social networks.However,it was absolutely faked(虚假).The International Press Institutehas called this episode in Dosakia the first time that AI deep-fakesfake images,or videos generated by artificialintelligence-have influenced a national election greatly.Security experts consider misinformation the biggest global risk recentlymore dangerous than war,andextreme weather events.A constant stream of people is wrestling with this issue.Now even economists are joiningin.Economist Iyan Smith,and others conduct a real-world experiment to see whether simple,low-cost nudges,orinterventions,can be effective.Instead of focusing on the supply side of misinformation like social media platforms,they pay attention to the demand side:increasing our capacity to identify the fake information.The economists split participants randomly into four different groups.One group was shown a videodemonstrating a convincing journey of two people from two different social groups who,before interacting,expressnegative stereotypes(刻板印象)about the others group,overcoming their differences and ultimately regrettingunthinkingly using stereotypes to dehumanize one another.Another group completed a personality test that showsthem their cognitive traits(认知特点)causing prejudice,hoping to increase their self-awareness,and decrease theirdemand for misinformation.Athird group did both while a control group did neither.The economists find the simple intervention of showing the video makes the participants over 30 percent lesslikely to“consider fake news reliable”.But the personality test has little effect.As for participants doing both,theywere about 31 percent less likely to view true headlines as reliable.In other words,they became so skeptical thateven the truth became suspect.Smith and his colleagues are far from the first scholars to fight misinformation by helping people to thinkmore critically.University of Weymouth psychologist Lisa Kindle also advocates similar ways to help rejectmisinformation in the wild.32.What does the author intend to do in the first two paragraphs?A.Highlight the risk ofAI deepfakes.B.Discuss the global threat landscape.C.Describe Dosakias election outcome.D.Introduce the concept of misinformation.33.What is“an effective nudge”in Smiths new study?A.The cognitive trait.B.The short video.C.The personality test.D.The negative stereotype.34.What conclusion can be drawn from the study?A.Videos reduce misinformation.B.Deepfakes may discredit truth.C.Misinformation causes dehumanization.D.Personality tests sharpen thinking skills.35.What might be the best title for the text?A.Battling Fake NewsB.Deepfakes in ElectionsC.The Spread of MisinformationD.Expanding Thinking Capacity第二节第二节(共共 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分分，满分 12.5 分分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What Does Our Body Language Reveal36People tend to judge us far more on our physical appearance,including our mannerisms,thanby what comes out of our mouths.To give the right impression,its important to understand what we are conveyingnon-verbally and how our unconscious signals are being received by the people we interact with.Smiling is a powerful tool in your body language collection.Perhaps you smile a lot in the hope of appearingfriendly.37In some Asian cultures,smiling too much is seen as a signal that youre not a seriousperson and may lose you some respect.If youre trying to hide nervousness youd better avoid smiling too much,too.Also be aware that nervouspeople often hug themselves,rub their forehead,and shift their body weight from one foot to another to create aslight rocking motion.38If youre trying to show that you are listening sympathetically to what someone has to say,try tipping yourhead slightly and nodding very slightly.This gesture implies you are listening with interest.If youre talking tosomeone and a third person joins,turn your body towards them slightly to include them and make them feel valued.39Asingle nod of the head is also a strong gesture of coolness when listening to another person.To build trust quickly?Try mirroring.Adopting a similar stance(站姿)to the person you are engaged withindicates your interest and helps develop trust.Use this with caution,though.40Mirroring only works when they dont realize what youre doing.A.Dont obviously copy your companion.B.Our body language speaks volumes about us.C.Control these habits to appear more composed.D.Our body language barely overshadows our verbal communication.E.Just be aware that it might make you seem less professional at work.F.We tend to position our body and feet toward the person of interest to us.G.By contrast,a failure to angle your body towards them implies“Unwelcome”.第三部分第三部分 语言运用语言运用(共两节，满分共两节，满分 30 分分)第一节第一节(共共 15 小题；每小题小题；每小题 1 分，满分分，满分 15
