The morning that Devanshi Mavani reached the top of Kilimanjaro, the conditions were bitter. She had
set off, like most hikers, the night before to time her arrival at the summit (山頂) with the ?unr??е. ?mmеd?аtеlу, hеаvу ?nоw began to fall. “Normally people see Kenya on the other side. When we got to the
summit, we saw nothing,” she says. “It was like a ski slope (斜坡). But I was crying with happiness.”
Just 17 months earlier, this trip had seemed impossible. In May 2017, Mavani was diagnosed with
type Ⅰdiabetes (糖尿病). She says, “I felt so low, thinking, ‘What am I going to do now in life, stuck with this?’”
The news put in jeopardy all Mavani’s hopes of travelling. She retired the year before and her son
eventually flew the nest. “I felt free. It was my chance. I thought, ‘Hooray, I can enjoy life.’ ” But her diagnosis made Mavani scared to leave the house. Her elder sister came to help, but Mavani “couldn’ t walk to the local park” without feeling unwell. Very slowly, Mavani built herself up from walking around the block to taking gentle gym classes. It was there that she met Hazel, who invited her to a talk about climbing Kilimanjaro.
When Mavani returned home that evening, she told her husband that it was something she really
wanted to do. “The hike was the following year, when I was turning 60. He said, ‘You’ve got time.’ It was the best thing I did. It took my focus away from worrying about my disease to something completely
different. How am I going to get fit again? How am I going to cope with this huge hike so far outside my
comfort zone?”
During the seven-day trek, Mavani had to inject (注射) herself five to eight times a day. “It was -16 ℃ outside; I had to take off all my clothes, lying on a snowy rock. I overcame all that,” she says. “I thought, I don’t fear the diabetes. If I can do this, I can do anything.”
Mavani recently completed the West Highland Way and the Cotswolds Way, and has booked a trip to
Machu Picchu in Peru.
24. Why did Mavani cry at the top of Kilimanjaro?
A. She felt disappointed at not seeing the scene she had expected.
B. She was excited to finish something challenging.
2023屆高三5月第二次模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷(共8頁(yè))第 3頁(yè)
C. She was afraid to be left behind by other hikers.
D. She couldn’t wait to ski down the mountain.
25. What does the underlined part “put in jeopardy” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Revealed. B. Inspired. C. Announced. D. Threatened.
26. What is the attitude of Mavani’s husband to her decision to climb Kilimanjaro?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Disapproving. D. Worried.
27. How has the experience of climbing Kilimanjaro affected Mavani?
A. She has learnt a new way to connect with people.
B. Her physical health has recovered rapidly.
C. She has fallen in love with travelling.
D. Her confidence has been built up.

AI is considered to be transformative for a wide range of industries, but there’s perhaps no other field where it provides more value than healthcare. Machine-learning programs are now being used in many hospitals to spot cancer and other diseases and discover new drugs, but there’s still this general impression that this is all done in a small way and the impacts are still minimal. AI is already here to stay and it has already saved thousands of lives.
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University published two studies in July 2022 describing a
machine-learning-based early detection tool for sepsis (敗血癥) that was used at five hospitals over a two-year period. During this period, the AI was able to identify nearly 10,000 sepsis cases from patient
records and helped doctors offer critical care about two hours, on average, earlier than when they didn’t
have access to the AI’s warning. Thanks to this system, the patients were 20% less likely to die of sepsis, potentially saving thousands of lives across the U.S. if it is implemented (實(shí)施) nationwide.
Once sepsis sets in, the patient usually suffers fever, a rapid heart rate, and difficult breathing. When
treating sepsis, time is of critical importance. However, sepsis is not always apparent, so there are naturally some delayed diagnoses. But if the condition is not diagnosed in time, it can progress into septic shock, causing a significant drop in blood pressure, organ failure, and other serious consequences. Even with treatment, in some cases, there is nothing doctors can do to save the patient’s life, which is why prevention is the name of the game with sepsis.
This is why the AI developed at Johns Hopkins, known as the Targeted Real-time Early Warning
System, is so important. In the two years the system had been online since 2018, during which it monitored 590,000 patients via their electronic health records, the AI was able to flag nearly 10,000 cases of sepsis. Its accuracy following diagnosis proved to be 38%, which might not sound like a lot, but earlier systems couldn’t achieve more than 12%.
28. What’s the general impression of AI in the healthcare industries?
A. It is widely implemented to spot diseases.
B. It provides more value than in other fields.
C. It has had a limited impact.
D. It has failed to save lives.
29. What did researchers at Johns Hopkins University find about the AI tool for sepsis?
A. It could update patient records.
B. It could be used to figure out how sepsis occurs.
C. It could uncover the reason for delayed diagnoses.
D. It could be applied to sepsis detection and timely caregiving.
30. What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on?
A. The importance of sepsis prevention.
2023屆高三5月第二次模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷(共8頁(yè))第 4頁(yè)
B. The difficulty of diagnosing sepsis.
C. The identification of septic shock.
D. The treatments for septic shock.
31. Why does the author present the data in the last paragraph?
A. To introduce the downside of the studies.
B. To stress the effectiveness of the warning system.
C. To indicate the big number of patients with sepsis.
D. To call for the improvement of the tool’s accuracy.
D
Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about tweens and teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore
another mounting effect-the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on”
world.
We have studied teens and tech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and
friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected-it’s keeping up with what others post, too.
Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than we are historically actually wired to track and manage. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose developmental sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking.
Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship
requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in
the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too
quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延遲) can be hurtful.
The qualities that are key to building or breaking friendships are actually the same as they’ve always
been: mutual (相互的) sharing of joys and sorrows, a give and take of acceptance and support, and an ability to weather and resolve conflicts. But technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are lost on adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society.
32. What makes teenagers’ networks continue to expand?
A. The pressure to be nice. B. The requests of their parents.
C. The need to meet more people. D. The burden of living independently.
33. What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media?
A. Exciting. B. Challenging. C. Money-saving. D. Risk-taking.
34. What should be changed according to the last paragraph?
A. The qualities of being a teen friend.
B. The conflicts between schools and parents.
C. The relations between parents and their teens.
D. The influences of social media on teen friendship.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. Why more teens are addicted to social media
B. How teens nowadays gain long-standing friendships
C. How social media has made teen friendships more stressful

Hilde’s father was a reporter. He often took her to work with him, and she developed a strong interest
in news stories and reporting. 36 She did the writing, her sister Izzy took pictures, and her father
helped her organize and print the newspaper. Hilde wanted to cover big stories in her town. Following the rules her father had taught her, she researched and reported stories in her monthly newspaper.
The newspaper suddenly became famous when a murder happened in the town, and Hilde was the first
person to report it. Soon, news organizations around the country were doing stories on Hilde.
37 Some people criticized her parents for allowing her to report on something as unpleasant as
a murder.
Others criticized Hilde for “pretending to be a reporter’’. Some people even suggested she should be
playing with dolls. 38 She responded with a YouTube video. “I never began my newspaper so that
people would think I was cute,” she said. “I want to be taken seriously.’’
That wasn’t the last time Hilde had trouble getting people to take her seriously. Sometimes, it was
because of her age. Other times, it was because she was a girl. 39 Hilde continued reporting and
her activities as a reporter have made her famous.
Now Hilde has published a book telling her own story and the challenges she has faced. Some of those
challenges came from Hilde herself, struggling to figure out who she was as she grew older. 40 But
she is still just 15, and has plenty of time to decide what she wants to do with her life. Her efforts have already inspired people around the world.
A. But she never let that stop her.
B. Hilde was upset by the complaints.
C. For now, Hilde says she has given up reporting.
D. When she was 8, Hilde started her own newspaper.
E. Her great success in reporting has changed her life.
F. Not everyone was happy about Hilde’s efforts, though.
G. She was clearly in a dilemma about how to solve the crisis.

In my first years of college I must admit I was still an angry adolescent. One day I had a serious fight with my father.
I saw him as 41 and wanted to break free. We both exploded in shouts and I 42 out of
the house and missed my bus to school. My mind raced with angry thoughts about him and I sighed all the way to school.
As I ran across the campus towards the classroom, I suddenly realized that I didn’t have the
assignment that was 43 : a thought card. Professor Simon had explained that every Tuesday we
must 44 an index card, on which we wrote a thought, a concern, a question or anything that was on
our mind and that he would return the card every Wednesday with his 45 or answer on it. He
stressed that the card was our 46 to class on Tuesdays.
Now, I raced down the hallway, ten minutes late to class. Just outside the door, I took out an index
card and wrote on it “I am the son of an IDIOT!”, as I could only think about the 47 I’d just had
with my dad. Then I dashed into the room, handed the card to Professor Simon and took my seat. The

moment I reached my seat, I 48 telling him that about my dad. I didn’t want to 49 myself
to him.
Wednesday morning I got to the class early and hid in the back. Professor Simon began 50
our thought cards. On my card was written, “What does ‘the son of an idiot’ do with the rest of his life?”
His question got right to the 51 of the issue: Whose problem was it? Whose responsibility was it?
Professor Simon’s comment kept coming up in my mind over the next few weeks. Slowly, my
thinking began to 52 . People began to notice that I was taking 53 for my doings and
choices. My grades improved. My relationship with my father also improved 54 . Now I saw him as
concerned and caring, instead of controlling. And it all 55 with a question, an innocent-seeming
question.

China’s first emperor, have allowed Chinese archaeologists to gain more insight into 56 the
world-famous Terracotta Warriors and their weapons were made.
According to a recent report archaeologists 57 (restore) more than 140 Terracotta Warriors.
They discovered that the arms of these figures were created separately and then attached to the bodies and
covered in a layer of fine clay. The carving of fine details was completed 58 the arms were
attached. 59 (additional), the pit has yielded a variety of weapons, including long-range attack
weapons, shields for defense, as well as drums and drumsticks used for commanding soldiers.
“The Terracotta Warriors used a very special mechanism to connect pieces together. Such 60
(wise) was unique to China,” Lv Qiuxia, 61 expert on ancient Chinese art, told the Global Times
on Wednesday. Lv added that the way the warriors were made differed based on their social status and class.
“When 62 (analyze) how they were made, we noticed that the warriors were divided into different
classes. This contributes to research 63 the burial culture of the Terracotta Warriors.” the expert

My middle child, Jake, was smart and good-looking, but he always sees the cup of life as half empty. Every day when he came home from school, Jake would list everything bad that happened that day!
On his ninth birthday, we saved enough money to take the family to Disneyland for two days. His dad
and I didn’t make much then, so it cost a considerable amount, but we felt Jake’s birthday was worth it. After doing Disneyland to death (玩夠了), we returned to our hotel room, all exhausted. And I asked the
birthday boy, “Did you have fun today, Jake?”
All my fault-finding son could say to me was “Pirates (海盜) of the Caribbean was closed!” “Jake Marshall,” I was clearly unable to contain my anger, “we stood in line for an hour and a half to see The Haunted Mansion. We rode Space Mountain three times. We spent two days playing in the park, and all you
can say is, Pirates of the Caribbean was closed?” Clearly, something had to be done about his negative
attitude and I was going to be the one to do it!
I was determined to help him. I read every article and bought every book. With the help of great resources, I found my son had the tendency to see the worst in every situation. My research told me that people with negativity have an emotional need for order and sensitivity. That meant I needed to listen to my son’s daily pessimistic reports. My usual reaction was to try to talk Jake out of his negativity, but that wouldn’t satisfy his need for sensitivity, so I had to let him finish his complaints and ask what good things happened. Then I needed to wait until he could tell me. This would help Jake realize that good things really were happening to him.

One possible version:
One day Jake came home from school and complained as usual. He listed the terrible things
at school. I listened carefully, looking at him and nodding now and then. After his complaint, I asked what good things happened to him. “Nothing.” His response was what I could expect.
“Something good must have happened. Think it over, my boy.” I encouraged with a gentle smile.
After about fifteen minutes’ effort, he admitted being praised by his head teacher for helping cleaning the front desk. Through this practice, he realized something good really happened to him.
From then on, Jake came to understand the power of seeing good points. He would not just
consider everything awful, but was willing to discover something awesome. And to my great joy, he kept patient and peaceful during his sharing. He even danced in excitement at wonderful things. I witnessed his attitude changing from negativity to positivity. The path to getting there seemed to be a struggle, but he was making headway. My hard work was paying off and I believed Jake would get used to seeing the cup of life as half full.

錄音原文
Text 1
M: Yesterday, I watched Aims Pond. It was great.
W: Wasn’t it originally a TV show?
M: Actually, it was originally a novel, which was adapted into a long-running TV show. Then, it
was turned into a movie.
Text 2
M: Our friend Eddie will hold a dancing party on Friday night. I heard there will be a really
good DJ and a big dance floor.
W: I know and I’m looking forward to it.
Text 3
W: So it’s a family business. I guess you’ll take it over, right?
M: Yeah, but actually, I really admire Joey. Unlike me, he never listens to my uncle and he
just pursues what he likes.
Text 4
M: Your piano teacher said you wanted to quit the lessons. You know you don’t have to worry
about the money.
W: No, Dad, it’s just that I’ve realized my true interest lies in solving difficult math
problems. Music is just not my thing.
Text 5
W: This sports car is our newest model, sir, and its engine is very powerful.
M: Hmm, the design is really appealing, but do I look like someone who can afford 100,000
dollars?
Text 6
M: This dress is from Paris, but at Hong Kong price. Would you like to try this black one on?
W: It’s nice, (6) but do you have a green one?
答案第4頁(yè),共6頁(yè)
M: Sure. Wow, you look terrific in it.
W: Thanks. It goes well with my white high heels. (6) I’ll take it.
M: (7) It’s 120 Hong Kong dollars. Are you a member? Members can get a 10% discount.
W: (7) No. But how can I become a member?
M: (7) Just fill out this form.
W: (7) OK. I’ll do it now.
Text 7
W: How many eggs come in a dozen?
M: A dozen is 12.
W: Really? I thought it was 13 but thinking about it now, it wouldn’t make sense for the box to
have an uneven number of spaces.
M: There is something called a baker’s dozen. A long time ago, giving a smaller amount of bread than a person paid for was illegal. (9) So then bakers began to put one extra piece in their
bags so they would not be fined.
W: Wow! That is interesting! How do you know so much about old bakers?
M: My mother owned a bakery. She made bread all the time! It was so delicious.
W: That does sound delicious. Do you know how to bake bread?
M: No, I wish I had learned properly. My mother tried to show me once, but I was too young to
understand.
Text 8
M: (10) Honey, I made beef steak, your favorite, for dinner. You look annoyed. What
happened?
W: I just got back from Charlie’s school. (11) And I think I’m getting ready to give Charlie a
lesson for beating up his classmate ... I will ... beat him up ...
M: What? You can’t do that. Our response shouldn’t be an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
W: Then what kind of punishment? Refusing to give allowance or taking away his toys? Those
don’t seem severe enough to me.
M: We could ground him for a month, only allowing him to go to school.
W: That still doesn’t seem to be enough.
M: (12) We could have him spend the weekend with your mother Julie.
W: Would it work?
M: If I were a 10-year-old boy and I had to face your angry and unfriendly mother for an entire
weekend, I’d be quaking in my boots!
W: That’s true.
Text 9
M: What day is it today, Chloe?
W: Friday maybe? Oh, no. (13) It’s Thursday. Why?
M: Hmm, Dad’s birthday is next Tuesday, which means we’ve only got a few days to prepare a
gift for him.
W: So what do you have in mind?
M: I’m thinking of buying him a motorcycle. He’ll be excited.
W: Yeah, (14) letting a 75-year-old ride a motorcycle on the road and pretending he doesn’t
have a heart condition — it’s such a brilliant idea.
M: Uh, what’s your suggestion then?
答案第5頁(yè),共6頁(yè)
W: Well, we got him a new TV set on his 73rd birthday, and last year we bought a smart phone for
him. (15) Maybe this year we can get him a laptop. It’s good for old people to keep in touch with high tech.
M: (15) Well, I’m not against that.
W: Great. Let’s go to the department store this afternoon and make the purchase.
M: But I have plans to play games online with my friends. Can’t we do it this weekend?
W: Alright. (16) Then I’ll just go to the gym instead.
Text 10
M: Good afternoon everyone. (17) I know that you’ve just arrived for a few days and you’re
probably not aware of the problems you may face while studying for your degree. However, it is important that you will go through ups and downs during your stay here. Fortunately, you don’t have to go through all these alone. (18) At the school advisory office,
we have several experienced advisors to help you with your problems. The office is open
Monday to Friday 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and on Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. If you need advice on study-related problems, you can make an appointment with Rodney Reid. (19)
If you’re looking for a part-time job, Jarrod Howard may help you. He can also help you
with information about jobs relating to your courses. If you want to discuss money matters, you can turn to Jim Smith. (20) If you have a problem that doesn’t fit into one of the areas
already mentioned, or a personal problem, you can talk to Laura Lea. Check the
noticeboards or the advisory office for more information.
