Chinese social media was a buzz with praise for war correspondent Chen Huihui

who reported from the front lines of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. As one of the

first journalists to arrive at the scene, Chen has been reporting live from the

battlefield since October 9th.

Chen’s reports have provided a realistic and complex view of the conflict,

earning her widespread respect and admiration from netizens on Weibo. Many

compared her deed to a “heroic act” for fearlessly facing the situation.

One netizen expressed admiration for war reporters covering the Israel-Palestine

conflict, stating: “I admire the war reporters covering the Israel-Palestine conflict;

truly admirable, they are reporting and directing the gunfire and bombardment every

day. Salute!”

As the Israeli army entered Gaza and began ground battle, Chen Huihui shared

her firsthand accounts of the situation. On November 11th, an emotional video

emerged of a father crying out in sorrow after his three children were killed by

Israel ’ s bombardment. This heart-broken image led netizens to express their

sympathy for the people affected by the conflict.

The Weibo netizens remained great support and respect for journalists like Chen

Huihui who are putting their lives on the line to report from the front lines. As a

Spanish parliamentarian named Mayster condemned Israel for committing war

crimes, Chinese social media users praised journalists who bring attention to the

realities and cruelty of war.

As another netizen put it: “War correspondents are often not individuals but

representatives of national images. Only when reporters are closer to the guns can

they feel more deeply the cruelty of war, know true casualties, and understand the

distinction between justice and injustice.”

Chen Huihui’s courageous reporting from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has

earned her widespread praise on Chinese social media. Her bravery and devotion to

providing realistic coverage of the complex situation have inspired admiration

among netizens who value journalists like her who are committed to throwing light

on important global issues.

media?

Many people have dreamt to find a cancer cure. Now, a pill might provide some

insight into their dreams.

The medicine, AOH1996, also called the “cancer-killing pill”, explicitly targets

the protein that encourages cancer cells to spread across the body. It prevents

proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA 细胞增殖核抗原) with a tiny molecule.

Up to August 2023, it is being evaluated in Phase I clinical studies for the treatment

of solid cancers.

Cancer is a condition in which abnormal cells continue to proliferate

uncontrollably, causing the tissue to be destroyed. About one in six deaths were due

to cancer in 2020, making it the top cause of death globally.

According to a recent study published in Cell Chemical Biology, City of Hope

researchers have discovered a novel method to treat cancer using a special tablet that

can get rid of solid tumors. AOH1996 differs from other targeted cancer therapies in

this respect, where other approaches may cause a tumor to change and develop more

resistance to treatment.

英语学科 第 6 页 共 12 页

{#{QQABCQiUogCgAAIAAQgCAwFYCEGQkBCCCAoGAFAIIAIASQFABAA=}#}

According to City of Hope Professor Linda Malkas, the research team created a

medicine specifically targeting the kind of PCNA seen in cancer cells since data

indicate that PCNA is distinctively changed in cancer cells. The novel cancer

medicine acts like a snowstorm closing a significant airport, stopping only flights

from and to aircraft carrying cancer cells.

“Results have been promising. AOH1996 can prevent tumor growth in cell and

animal models. The drug is currently in Phase I clinical trial in humans at City of

Hope.”

Treatment of lung, brain and skin cancers with AOH1996 has shown to be

effective. It kills specific cells by stopping them from replicating (复制) typically.

To assess this medicine for potential future use, more clinical studies are planned.

38. What can we know about PCNA?

A. It is a pill that cures solid cancer.

B. It is a medicine that prevents tumor growth.

C. It is a molecule targeted by the cancer-killing pill AOH1996.

D. It is a protein that causes cancer cells to spread across the body.

39. Why is AOH1996 different from other cancer drugs?

A. It has cured many patients’ cancers.

B. It will develop drug resistance.

C. It is a natural product collected from plants.

D. It has less side effects than other cancer drugs.

40. What does the author want to express by saying “The novel cancer medicine acts

like a snowstorm closing a significant airport...”?

A. AOH1996 targets cancer cells without harming healthy cells.

B. AOH1996 has caused chaos in the medical field.

C. AOH1996 is highly effective but inefficient in treating cancer patients.

D. AOH1996 is unpredictable and can have unintended consequences.

41. What’s the purpose of planning more clinical studies for AOH1996?

A. Determining the specific types of cancers it can effectively treat.

B. Investigating the possible side effects of the medicine.

C. Determining if it can be used on a large scale.

D. Confirming its effectiveness in killing specific cells.

D

The Stanford marshmallow( 棉 花 糖 )test was originally conducted by

psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a nursery

school were placed in a room. A single sugary treat, selected by the child, was

placed on a table. Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the

treat, they would be given a second treat. Then they were left alone in the room.

{#{QQABCQiUogCgAAIAAQgCAwFYCEGQkBCCCAoGAFAIIAIASQFABAA=}#}

Follow-up studies with the children later in life showed a connection between an

ability to wait long enough to obtain a second treat and various forms of success.

As adults, we face a version of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not

tempted by sugary treats, but by our computers, phones, and tablets — all the

devices that connect us to the global delivery system for various types of

information that do to us what marshmallows do to preschoolers.

We are tempted by sugary treats because our ancestors lived in a calorie-poor

world, and our brains developed a response mechanism to these treats that reflected

their value — a feeling of reward and satisfaction. But as we’ve reshaped the world

around us, dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories,

we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago, and this mismatch is at

the heart of why so many of us struggle to resist tempting foods that we know we

shouldn’t eat.

A similar process is at work in our response to information. Our formative

environment as a species was information-poor, so our brains developed a

mechanism that prized new information. But global connectivity has greatly

changed our information environment. We are now ceaselessly bombarded(轰炸)

with new information. Therefore, just as we need to be more thoughtful about our

caloric consumption, we also need to be more thoughtful about our information

consumption, resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food” in order to manage

our time most effectively.

42. What did the children need to do to get a second treat in Mischel’s test?

A. Take an examination alone.

B. Show respect for the researchers.

C. Share their treats with others.

D. Delay eating for fifteen minutes.

43. According to paragraph 3, there is a mismatch between ______.

A. the calorie-poor world and our good appetites

B. the shortage of sugar and our nutritional needs

C. the rich food supply and our unchanged brains

D. the tempting foods and our efforts to keep fit

44. What does the author suggest readers do?

A. Absorb new information readily.

B. Be selective information consumers.

C. Use diverse information sources.

D. Protect the information environment.

45. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. Eat Less, Read More

B. The Bitter Truth about Early Humans

In an attempt to survive in the world with challenges, we need to be wise.

46 Let me tell you this, wisdom provides us with perspective when we need it

and it calms us down in terrible situations. Here are some strategies that we can use

to get wiser.

47 This will open up new pathways for us. Never base your perspective

on the most popular opinion or which is the most comfortable for you. Train your

mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas. If you are humble, then you will always

get to experience something new.

You must be the kind of person who learns something new every day. Take

new classes, read books and the list goes on and on. 48 All of these

activities will help you to tackle problems from different angles, making everything

easier.

You obviously want to grow and do better in life, right? The best way is to

have wise people as your mentors(导师), like teachers, colleagues and even special

friends. Prior to making them a mentor, find out what makes them wiser, then

engage in useful dialogue with them. 49

If you have accumulated a lot of knowledge, then why not share it with others

too? 50 In today’s world, it is very easy to become wise but it isn’t easy to

help others. So keep things balanced and never let go of your passions and values.

This will pave the path to success.

A. Why do we communicate with wise people?

B. Why is wisdom crucial in this modern world?

C. Change your routine and see where life takes you.

D. Surf the Internet and clear out your problems that confuse you.

E. Sometimes we ourselves need to be open to diverse perspectives.

F. The more time is spent with them, the more transfer of knowledge there will

be.

G. Communicating with others and helping them out will also increase your

wisdom.
