As I drove along the road, a small car flew across the center divider from the opposite
direction and crashed into my car head-on, I fainted and was awakened by the ringing of my
mobile phone.
I was brought to Kuala Lumpur General Hospital bleeding on from my nose, mouth and
legs. But the hospital staff was too busy to attend to me, so I called a friend to tell him about
the accident. Some friends arrived very soon and sent me to a private hospital nearby. I saw
my injured feet hanging from my body, blue and lifeless, and I begged the doctors to save 【高三英语试卷 第 5 页(共 13 页)】

The doctors made it. After I was discharged, I was given ten months medical leave. My
heart sank, knowing that it meant I, a big man, couldn't work. How was I going to support
my 65-year-old mother and other family members? I felt completely helpless, but a lot of
unexpected blessings came my way. I had many visitors during my 14 days in hospital and
when I was recovering at home. Friends and relatives helped me with my banking, insurance
or simply came to cheer me up.
When the casts ( 石 膏 ) were removed, I did not let the sight of my weak legs
discourage me. I worked hard at my physiotherapy (物理疗法)with only one aim. After
eight months, I was walking without the aid of a walking stick. On February the following
year, I returned to my job again. Today, after eight years, I have travelled to many countries
as a tour leader.

You should try your best to create your own family library so that you and your family
are always learning. "It is a great mistake to think that education is finished when young peo-
ple leave school. Education is never finished even if you grow older," said Mrs Child in The
Mother's Book. "Collecting a library of books in your home is really helpful to your family. ”
"What is really interesting about having so many books in your home is that a book you
purchase has a chapter about the deeper knowledge of your favorite subject at school," said
a university graduate. Researchers in a study tries to identify what parents do has an influence
on how well their children do on standardized tests. One positive aspect they find is the
availability of a large number of books at home. This has a stronger connection, especially
when you read to your children every day. The more books your older kids have access to at
home, the more likely they are just to be reading for fun, rather than having to wait for weekly
trips to the library.
John Henry, one educated parent, said, "I have been homeschooling my children using
the philosophy of A Thomas Jeffer son Education. This philosophy of learning is based on
the reading of classic books. ” Clinton Fadiman said, "When you reread a classic, you do not
see more in the book than you did before; you see more in you than before. " Classic
books also make you smarter and wiser! The wisdom comes in the examples in the lives of
the characters.
"It is within your power to guide your youth in their reading and to cultivate in their
hearts a desire for good books. It is the most unfortunate if a person is not possessed with the
desire for good reading. The reading habit, like charity, should begin at home," said Mrs
Child.
28. What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2?
A. Kids don't need to go to the library any longer.
B. Parents should set a good example at home.
C. It's necessary to create a family library.
D. It's important to let kids pass standardized tests.
29. How does the author explain the effect of reading classic books at home in paragraph 3?
A. By quoting others* words. B. By questioning.
C. By imagination. D. By analyzing research data.
30. What can we learn from what Mrs Child said?【高三英语试卷 第 7 页(共 13 页)】
A. East or west, home is best.
B. One is never too old to learn.
C. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.
D. Charity is the soul, rather than the virtues of hand.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Where to Store Your Favorite Books at Home?
B. When to Read the Classic Books to Your Children?
C. Which Is Better, a Home Library or a Public Library?
D. Why Not Have Your Own Library of Books at Home?
D
Tests have shown robots can diagnose heart problems in as little as four seconds, as a
review of artificial intelligence (Al) finds machines are now as good at spotting illness as
doctors.
Analyzing a patient's heart function on a cardiac MRI (心脏磁共振成像)scan
currently takes doctors around 13 minutes. But a new trial by University College London (
UCL) showed an Al program could read the scans in less time with equal accuracy. There
are approximately 150,000 such scans performed in the UK each year, and researchers
estimate that* fully using Al to read them could save 54 clinician-days (临床天数)at
each cardiac centre per year. So it can make up for the shortage of doctors.
It is hoped that Al where computer systems are able to learn from data to identify new
patterns with minimal human intervention will transform medicine by helping doctors spot
dis- eases such as heart disease and cancer faster and earlier. However, most scans are still
read by specially trained doctors.
Dr Charlotte Manisty, who led the UCL research, said, "Cardiovascular MRI offers in-
comparable image quality for assessing heart structure and function. However, current
manual analysis remains basic and outdated. Automated machine techniques offer the
potential to change this and completely improve efficiency and accuracy, and we look
forward to further research that could confirm the superiority to human analysis."
She added, “Our dataset of patients with a range of heart disease who received scans
enabled us to demonstrate that the greatest sources of measurement errors arise from human
factors. This indicates that automated techniques are at least as good as humans, with the 【高三英语试卷 第 8 页(共 13 页)】
potential soon to be 'super-human'—transforming clinical and research measurement
precision."
Professor Alastair Denniston said, "Within those handful of high-quality studies, we
found that by deep learning Al could indeed detect disease ranging from cancer to eye disease
as accurately as health professionals. But it's important to note that it did not absolutely
exceed human professional diagnosis. ”
32. Which of the following can best describe this Al program?
A. Time-consuming. B. Environmentally friendly.
C. Extremely unpractical. D. Labor-saving.
33. What is Charlotte Manisty's expectation of automated machine techniques?
A. To treat eye disease faster and earlier.
B. To analyze heart disease efficiently and accurately.
C. To combine manual with automated analysis.
D. To confirm heart structure and function.
34. What did Alastair Denniston say about Al?
A. It would be super-human soon.
B. It couldn't completely replace expert doctors.
C. It would correct professionals' measurement errors.
D. It couldn't detect cancer as accurately as health professionals.
35. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Al has many shortcomings in practice.
B. Al totally shows its superiority to human analysis.
C. Al can reduce medical errors arising from human factors.
D. Al can diagnose heart disease as well as doctors in less time.

How to Develop Appropriate Self-Confidence
Under most circumstances* having self-confidence is a good thing. 36 It is this strong
sense of confidence that allows them to go out in the world and reach for their goals.
But can you have too much self-confidence? 37 In most cases, knowing your strengths 【高三英语试卷 第 9 页(共 13 页)】
and having the assuredness to go out and take risks are admirable qualities. But when this
confidence makes you inflexible, opposed to trying new things, and incapable of listening to
others, it can become harmful to success and well-being. So what can people do to ensure
that their self-confidence is realistic, authentic and socially appropriate?
38 Whether you are evaluating your own success or offering praise to your children,
try to place a greater emphasis on the work that went into the task rather than just focus on
how things turned out. You cannot always control how things go, but you can control the
amount of work you put into achieving your goals.
Keep learning new things. Even if you are highly confident about your skills in an area,
keep looking for new challenges. It is easy to become overconfident if you think you know
everything there is to know about a subject. Finding new challenges to overcome does
sharpen your skills. 39
Listen to what others have to say. Overconfidence can sometimes cause people to
become rigid and even arbitrary. Instead of assuming that your way is the right or only way,
try to keep an open mind. 40 However, it is important to listen in order to gain a new
perspective.
A. Focus on the effort, not the outcome.
B. Is overconfidence definitely a good thing?
C. You might not always agree with other people.
D. Having too much self-confidence is beneficial to us.
E. Are you teaching in a different way and extremely excellent?
F. Confident people tend to be more successful in a wide variety of fields.
G. Finding new challenges also reminds you that there're fresh ways of thinking about
things.

One possible version:
Dear Jack.
Recently, 1 read a passage---- The True Meaning of Happiness. I'm glad to share my views with you. Un-
doubted! y・ all of us look for happiness, but what is the true meaning of happiness? Personally. working hard
and being committed to whatever we are doing can make us feel happy. In reality, nothing can replace the sense
of achievement one feels after much devotion.
My best way to gain happiness is as follows. Firstly, I'm buried in my studies. Only when I try my best can
I gain a sense of happiness. Secondly, I'm willing to share my happiness with others. Sharing can release my
sorrow and double my pleasure.
What's your opinion? Looking forward to your reply!
Yours,
