Section B(22’)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
This year’s United Nations Prize for Research in the Life Sciences（UNPRLS）goes to a Chinese scientist, Tu Youyou, for the discovery of artemisinin（青蒿素）and its use in the treatment of malaria（疟疾）—a medical advance that has saved millions of lives across the globe, especially in the developing world.
Tu’s pioneering work on malaria began on May 23, 1967 when the Chinese government started a program aimed at finding a cure for the deadly disease.
Tu combed the Chinese traditional medicine texts for possible treatments, and by 1972, had made 380 extracts（提取物）from 200 herbs. Her team then tested the extracts one by one on the malaria-infected mice. One of the extracts from Qinghao—or sweet wormwood—sharply reduced malaria growth in the animals.
At a March 1972 meeting of the project’s key participants, Tu reported that the natural plant extract wiped out the malaria in mice and monkeys. Later that year it proved effective in treating human patients.
The first English-language scientific journal（期刊）mentioning successful clinical trials for artemisinin appeared in late 1979 and two years later, Tu presented her discovery at an international meeting at the World Health Organization（WHO）and it was immediately recognized as a breakthrough. In 2015, she was finally awarded the Nobel Prize for her discovery.
Artemisinin is still the most powerful anti-malarial drug presently available, and an artemisinin-based drug combination is now the standard drug for the disease. The WHO lists artemisinin and related drugs in its catalog of “Essential Medicines”
“It is clear that Tu’s work has saved millions of lives, particularly in the developing world, and continues to bring about long-term medical benefits in the ongoing fight against this deadly disease,” the Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization（UNESCO）prize committee writes in a statement published today.
46. What has served as the major inspiration for Tu’s discovery？
A. The English-language scientific journals.
B. Exchanges with scientists at international meetings.
C. Her malaria-fighting experience in the developing countries.
D. Her extensive reading of the Chinese traditional medicine books.
47. How long has it taken Tu to get her first official international recognition of her achievement
A. About 6 years. B. About 7 years. C. About 9 years. D. About 43 years.
48. What can we know about the artemisinin？
A It has to be taken from the natural plants in China.
B. It is still the most effective drug in curing malaria.
C. It must be combined with other drugs for treatment.
D. It is the only anti-malarial medicine used in the world.
49. Why was Tu given this year’s UNPRLS according to the UNESCO prize committee？
A. Her pioneering work has rid the world of malaria.
B. Her drug has promoted the use of natural herbs.
C. Her team discovered artemisinin and tested it successfully.
D. Her discovery has helped to save millions of lives in the world.

Here’s the deal: you’re as hungry as a horse and you want a delicious meal from a fine restaurant, but you’re a little low on funds.
So what do you do If you happen to live in Europe, the answer is as easy as pie: you pull out your smart phone or tablet, and tap Too Good To Go, Europe’s most popular app. Approximately 23,000 restaurants and food sellers post their leftover offerings on the app for half their usual cost.
Why all this incredible generosity Unbelievably, one-third of the world’s food is thrown away, and nearly one billion people don’t have enough to eat. Besides, burning wasted food releases harmful carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere, which contributes to climate change. That’s why environment-minded companies around the world are creating apps for phones, tablets, and other smart devices that connect uneaten food with people who want or need it.
After a long day at work, Anne, a 34-year-old student, pulls out her smart phone and chooses a noodle dish —pasta with mushrooms. Then she heads to a restaurant on the banks of the Spree River, where the owner packs her dinner and also offers her a spoon of free icecream, which is a reward for bringing her own container.
Indeed, there are many programmes serving the same mission around the world. In America, people are using an app called Food for All. One hour before a restaurant closes, its staff can post leftover meals to the app for up to 80 percent off menu prices. The app also allows customers to donate leftover meals to others.
In the Netherlands, 77,000 people have downloaded an app called No Food Wasted. This programme allows grocery store workers to share products that are approaching their expiration dates with customers who might need them.
Some countries are taking their commitment to reducing food waste a step further. France and the Czech Republic, for example, have laws that prohibit restaurants and grocery stores from throwing away food. Instead, workers are required to donate that food to charity.
So think about if there might be a better use for your uneaten vegetables The planet will thank you.
53. Why are such apps as Too Good To Go created
A. They are created to show the generosity of some eco-minded companies.
B. They are created to offer delicious meals to those who live on a tight budget.
C. They are created to call for people to not waste food and to reduce harmful emissions from burning wasted food.
D They are created as a publicity tool for restaurants and companies.
54. Which is not a way mentioned in the passage to save food or protect the environment
A. Make laws and regulations to ban the waste of food.
B. Share products approaching their expiration dates with those who might need them.
C. Post leftover meals to the app for up to 80 percent discounts.
D. Offer consumers a free meal as the reward for bringing their own container.
55. What is this passage mainly about
A. Companies are designing environment-friendly apps for poor people.
B. Restaurants enable their staff to sell leftover meals at a low price on apps.
C. Apps are designed to provide leftover food for people in need to choose from.
D. Apps are designed to appeal to the public to treasure food and donate food to people in need.
56. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
A. more methods are needed to help solve the problem of leftover food
B. more applications should be created to help restaurants sell food
C. leftover food will pose a great danger to the environment
D. the applications already designed cannot ensure a good use of leftover food
Section C(8’)
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
In 2009, the number of hungry people in the world reached one billion for the first time. It’s difficult not to be shocked by the fact that more than one in seven people in the world do not have enough to eat. ____57____ Hunger kills more people per year than disease such as AIDS, malaria and TB (肺结核) combined.
The UN estimates that almost two thirds of the world’s hungry people are in Asia, which is of course the world’s most populous continent. ____58____ Although this region has a much lower population than Asia, it has the highest percentage of hungry people. Almost all of the rest are in Latin America and the Caribbean. In the richest regions of the world there are only a tiny number of people who don’t have enough to eat.
____59____ They include wars droughts, floods and the over-use of farming land. All these factors affect food production. Many people also blame greedy businessman for pushing up the prices of basic foods in the global market. But the most important reason, quite simply, is poverty, which has increased recently due to the financial crisis of 2008.
Although many people make the obvious point that there would be less hunger if the global population were smaller, few people would argue that there is not enough food to go around. The basic problem seems to be not a lack of food, but its distribution. There are many areas of the world in which people generally have more than enough food. ____60____ The answer to world hunger, therefore, may be a balanced food distribution around the whole world. Everyone will have enough to eat, but not overeat.
A. More than a quarter are in sub-Saharan Africa.
B. There are many reasons for world hunger.
C. It takes the effort of every country to fight against world hunger.
D. In those places, obesity is a far bigger problem than hunger.
E. Those places need far more food than they actually get.
F. By the end of this year, more than 35 million people will have died as a result of not having enough to eat.

V. Guided Writing (30’)
【66题答案】
【答案】Dear Principal,
I am Li Hua, a student from Mingqi High School. This semester, I’ve noticed an increase in the number of short-sighted students around me, coupled with a decline in physical fitness. Many students frequently fall ill and take leave, or struggle to keep up during long-distance running. The possible reasons behind this situation are multifaceted. Firstly, excessive screen time significantly contributes to eye strain and reduces physical activity. Secondly, academic pressure has led to a lack of regular exercise and sufficient sleep, further weakening students' immune systems.
To address these issues, I suggest that the school implement a series of measures. These could include organizing more outdoor activities to reduce screen time and introducing mandatory physical education classes focused on enhancing overall fitness. I sincerely hope that the schooltake action to improve the current situation.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
