Gdfrey was extremely annyed. He wanted t d what he thught was his duty. And adpting Eppie wuld make him feel much less guilty abut his past. “But, Eppie, yu must agree,” he cried. “Yu are my daughter! Silas Marner, yu knw, Eppie’s mther was my wife and she is my wn child.”
Eppie’s face went white. Silas, wh had been relieved by hearing Eppie’s answer t Gdfrey, nw answered bitterly, “Then, sir, why didn’t yu cnfess this sixteen years ag, befre I began t lve her? Why d yu cme t take her away nw, when it’s like taking the heart ut f my bdy? Gd gave her t me because yu abandned her! And He cnsiders her mine!”
“I think, Marner,” he said firmly, “that yu shuld cnsider what’s best fr Eppie. Yu shuldn’t stand in her way when she culd have a better life.”
Silas was silent fr a mment. He was wrried that perhaps Gdfrey was right, and that it was selfish f him t keep Eppie. At last he brught ut the difficult wrds. “All right. Speak t the child. I wn't prevent her frm ging.”
Gdfrey and his wife were relieved t hear this, and thught Eppie wuld nw agree. “Eppie, my dear,” said Gdfrey, “althugh I haven’t been a gd father t yu s far, I want t d my best fr yu nw.”
But Eppie did nt cme frward this time. She std by Silas’s side, hlding his hand in hers, and spke almst cldly. “Thank yu fr yur kind ffer. But I wuldn’t be happy if I left father. He’d have nbdy if I weren’t here. Nbdy shall ever cme between him and me!”
“But yu must make sure, Eppie,” said Silas wrriedly, “that yu wn't be srry, if yu decide t stay with pr peple. Yu culd have a much better life.”

Lts f factrs cntribute t hw healthy a persn is. Sme f these are bvius, like the medical care they receive. But sme less bvius factrs can be even mre imprtant! Sme examples include access t fd, husing, healthcare, scial supprt and educatin.
What gd des educatin d t yu? Research shws that educatin can lengthen yur life expectancy! Getting mre educatin leads t better emplyment, higher incme, and access t healthcare. And all f these imprve verall health. S, peple with mre educatin tend t have higher life expectancies than peple with less educatin.
Many studies shw mre educatin is assciated with lnger lives. But n ne has calculated exactly hw much lnger r hw much mrtality risk ges dwn with each year f schling. In ther wrds, hw des educatin lwer a persn’s risk f death? Of curse, everyne still dies, but a lwer mrtality risk means a higher chance f a lng life.
We reviewed previus studies that lked at educatin and mrtality, searching seven databases f scientific studies frm arund the wrld. We gathered all the studies n this tpic published between 1980 and 2023. In ttal, we identified 603 studies frm 59 cuntries. We analyzed the results frm all these studies t measure hw educatin affected mrtality risk. Besides, we als lked at differences in the effect f educatin at different ages. Finally, we checked the effect f educatin acrss Sci-Demgraphic Index levels.
We fund that getting mre educatin lwers mrtality risk. With each year f educatin, an adult’s risk f death ges dwn by abut 2%. This effect is greater in yunger adults than in lder nes. But even peple ver 70 years ld benefit frm the psitive effects f educatin! When we lked at cuntries at different stages f scial and ecnmic develpment, we didn’t find different results. This suggests that mre years f schling leads t lnger lives in bth rich and pr cuntries.
8. Accrding t the authr, educatin can be .
A. a pathway t healthB. a measure f success
C. a surce f stressD. a chance fr the rich
9. What des the underlined wrd “mrtality” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Health.B. Death.C. Virtue.D. Survival.
10. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. The methds.B. The arguments.C. The findings.D. The suggestins.
11. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
A. Peple in pr cuntries benefit mre frm educatin.
B. The impact f educatin n yung peple is relatively greater.
C. Educatin des affect hw lng peple live in different cuntries.
D. Peple in rich cuntries have chances t gain further educatin easily.
D
Lts f peple are cncerned abut the ability that artificial intelligence (AI) has t cpy their vices. When AI is used t make false recrdings f things that a persn never said, it is called a “deepfake.”
Hwever, mre and mre stries are cming ut abut hw AI is helping peple wh can n lnger speak, regain a versin f their vice. Fr example, cuntry music singer Randy Travis recently released his first new sng in ver 10 years with the help f Al technlgy. Travis suffered a strke and can n lnger sing.
The technlgy is als able t help peple like 21-year-ld Alexis Bgan frm the eastern state f Rhde Island. Bgan used t lve singing alng with sngs by her favrite musicians like Taylr Swift and Zach Bryan. She was a ppular singer in her schl music grup as a teenager.
But a surprise diagnsis changed all that. Last August, dctrs remved a tumr frm the back f her brain. The surgery was a success. But after dctrs remved a tube used t help her breathe during the peratin, Bgan had truble speaking.
Last mnth, Bgan gt her vice back in a way. Experts created a tl fr her using AI. She uses a text-t-vice app t rder her favrite cffee at Starbucks. She uses it by writing wrds in her phne and hlding it up at the cffee shp s servers can hear her. The app uses OpenAI’s vice tl.
Bgan’s dctrs say her case shws why AI can be helpful. Dr. Rhaid Ali is training in neurscience at Brwn University’s medical schl. He called Bgan “a trailblazer” He said the technlgy can help millins f peple with brain injuries, thrat cancer r ther diseases that prevent a persn frm speaking.
Fatima Mirza is anther dctr wrking n the prject. She said there is a risk that AI technlgy can be used by bad peple, “but we can’t frget abut the patient and the scial gd.” She said the technlgy permits Bgan t have smething clse t her true vice.
12. Why is the stry f Alexis Bgan mentined?

Lts f factrs cntribute t hw healthy a persn is. Sme f these are bvius, like the medical care they receive. But sme less bvius factrs can be even mre imprtant! Sme examples include access t fd, husing, healthcare, scial supprt and educatin.

【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“We reviewed previus studies that lked at educatin and mrtality, searching seven databases f scientific studies frm arund the wrld. We gathered all the studies n this tpic published between 1980 and 2023. In ttal, we identified 603 studies frm 59 cuntries.

But even peple ver 70 years ld benefit frm the psitive effects f educatin! When we lked at cuntries at different stages f scial and ecnmic develpment, we didn't find different results. This suggests that mre years f schling leads t lnger lives in bth rich and pr cuntries. (我们发现，接受更多的教育可以降低死亡风险。对于成年人来说，每接受一年的教育，死亡风险就会降低约2%。这种影响在年轻人中比在老年人中更大。但即使是70岁以上的人也能从教育的积极影响中受益！当我们观察处于不同社会和经济发展阶段的国家时，我们没有发现不同的结果。这表明，在富裕国家和贫穷国家，接受更多年的学校教育都能使人更长寿。)”可知，接受更多教育能降低死亡风险，每多接受一年教育，成年人的死亡风险下降约2%，这种影响在年轻人中比在老年人中更大，而且在不同社会经济发展阶段的国家都发现更多的受教育年限会带来更长的寿命，所以可以推断出教育确实会影响不同国家人们的寿命长短。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了导演杨宇对《哪吒2》的创作理念及影片特点。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：《哪吒2》是杨宇导演的最新改编作品，也是一部票房炸弹，其中包含了他对个人成长与外部世界关系的理解，以及在更大背景下为公平而战的梦想。include在句中作谓语，句子描述客观事实，所以使用一般现在时，主语为The latest adaptatin，所以谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填includes。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意：《哪吒2》是杨宇导演的最新改编作品，也是一部票房炸弹，其中包含了他对个人成长与外部世界关系的理解，以及在更大背景下为公平而战的梦想。fight fr 是固定短语，意为 “为……而战”，这里表示为公平而战。故填fr。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：在杨宇的版本中，哪吒被重新塑造成一个黑眼圈男孩的故事，这个形象打破了刻板印象，而龙太子敖丙则是一个心地善良的年轻人。空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词a by，先行词指人，在定语从句中作定语，修饰image，应使用关系代词whse引导。故填whse。
【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意：新鲜的情节转折、发人深省的对话和鼓舞人心的时刻使它既感人又振奋人心。空处与uplifting并列，作宾语补足语，应使用形容词tuching，表示“令人感动的”，侧重于描述事物本身具有的性质。故填tuching。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：展现家庭关系的行为得到了加强，父母的性格也得到了改善：父亲温柔、含蓄、内向，母亲是一位勇敢的军官。空处需要过去分词作定语，修饰后面的名词短语parental persnalities，两者之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作定语。故填imprved。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他出身医学背景，却在学业中途转向了动画，尽管当时人们预料他不会成功。空处修饰名词backgrund作定语，应使用形容词medical，表示“医学的”。故填medical。
【42题详解】
考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：他出身医学背景，却在学业中途转向了动画，尽管当时人们预料他不会成功。anticipate在althugh引导的让步状语从句中作谓语，根据主句“he switched t animatin midway thrugh his studies”可知，此处使用一般过去时，且it与anticipate之间为被动关系，应使用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为it，be动词使用was。故填was anticipated。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：杨宇在接受《新京报》采访时说：“哪吒之所以能够改变自己的命运，也是因为他父母的接纳、支持和爱。”空处与supprt和lve并列，作because f的宾语，应使用名词acceptance，表示“接纳”。故填acceptance。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：与典型的旧形象相比，这个最新的哪吒更像一个真实的人类孩子。child为可数名词单数，此处表示泛指，且real发音以辅音音素开头，需用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他在接受《南方周末》采访时说，除了故事本身，他还希望为那些追逐梦想的人提供更多的鼓励、温暖和力量。hpe t d sth.为固定用法，表示“希望做某事”，所以空处需填动词不定式作宾语。故填t ffer。
