2025年8月16日晚，清华大学博士生庞众望获评2024年度《感动中国》年度人物。他从历经重重

磨难的少年成长为励志榜样的故事，温暖并鼓舞了无数人。

庞众里出身贫寒，生活举步维艰.父亲患有精神疾病，母亲先天患病、双腿截肢，几乎无法行动：而庞

众望自己天生患有心脏病。为给母亲治病，他挨家挨户借钱，还捡拾废品偿还家中债务。即便如此，他始终

乐观开朗，坚信“知识改变命运”，在校期间，庞众望刻苦读书，每天长途步行上学。哪怕只有一盏微弱的

小灯，他也会学习到深夜，成绩始终稳居班级前列。

2017年，庞众望参加高考，取得了684分的优异成绩，成功考入清华大学。在校期间，他选择工科专

业，一如既往勤奋钻研。不幸的是，2020年，就在他即将获得清华直博机会前夕，母亲离世。母亲为他取

名“众望”，寓意“众人的希望”，生前总叮嘱他要永远向前看。“妈妈每天都笑着生活，我又凭什么消沉难

过？”他学业成绩优异，后来顺利攻读博士学位，参与多项重大科研项目，还研发出新技术。如今他手握三

项国家发明专利，研究成果应用于环境监测、灾害预警等领域。

功成名就的庞众望从未忘本。他用自身力量回馈社会：捐款资助贫困学子求学，为先天性心脏病儿童.医

疗基金提供援助；同时担任家乡旅游形象大使，助力宣传本土文化、带动地方经济发展。

颁奖词这样评价他：“跨过千难万苦，笑对人生前路，携一身力量奋勇向前。“庞众望的经历告诉我们：

只要内心坚韧、心怀希望，每个人都能不负期许，创造属于自己的光芒。

【全文翻译】

如今名人随处可见：电视上、杂志里、网络上。人们时常关注、谈论他们。这只是无伤大雅的消遣，

4/14

还是会对我们造成负面影响？究竟有多少人会疯狂追捧当下的偶像？而换个角度来看，成名这件事本身，

对名人自身是否有害？

多项研究表明，大多数青少年并不会盲目崇拜名人。研究人员将粉丝分为三类。约15%的年轻人属

于社交型追星群体：他们喜欢和用友聊自己喜爱的明星，这种行为看起来不会带来任何伤害。

另有5%的粉丝觉得自己和某位名人有着深厚的私人联结。他们有时将明星视作心灵伴侣，总会不由

自主地想起对方。这类人容易情绪低落。如果该群体中的女孩崇拜身材在她们眼中近乎完美的女明星，她

们更容易对自己的身材产生自卑、不满。

剩余2%的年轻人有着非理性的追星执念。他们可能会花数千英镑买下名人用过的纸盘，甚至做出违

法的事。这类人最容易陷入严重的情绪崩溃。

那名人自身又会受到什么影响？美国一些研究者开展了一项研究，探究成名对人产生的影响。研究显

示，名人普遍爱炫耀，且极度自恋。研究对象包含2（X）位名人、200名高学历年轻人（该群体本身就以

自恋特质突出著称）以及普通大众群体。不出研究人员所料，名人的自恋程度远高于高学历人群；而这两

类群体的自恋程度，乂都远超普通民众。

研究涵盖四类名人：通过真人秀走红的人自恋程度最高，其次是喜剧演员，再是演员，音乐人自恋程

度最低。还有一个有意思的发现：一个人的自恋程度，和他成名时间长短没有关联。

我们能从中得到什么启发？大多数功成名就、家喻户晓的人往往以自我为中心，行事多只为谋取自身

利益。翻看明星杂志就能发现，他们也常常倍感孤独，甚至绝望，并非值得效仿的正面榜样。

【长难句分析】

1.原文：Ifgirlsinthisgroupidolizeawomanstarwithabodytheyconsiderlobeperfect,theyaremorelikely（o

beunhappywiththeirownbodies.

翻译：如果该群体中的女孩崇拜身材在她们眼中近乎完美的女明星，她们更容易对自己的身材产生不满。

分析：本句为if引导条件状语从句+主句复合句；从句主干：girlsidolizeawomanstar；withabody介

词短语后置修饰star；定语从句theyconsidertobeperfect修饰先行词body,省略关系代同that；固定搭

配：belikelytodo有可能做某事；beunhappywith对...不满意。

2.原文：Theresearcherslookedal200celebrities,200youngadultswithhigheducation,whowereagroup

分普通民众。

5/14

分析:主句主干:Theresearcherslookedat并列三组宾语;who引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为200

youngadults；knownforbeingnarcissistic过去分词短语作后置定语，表被动”因自恋而出名”。

3.原文：Oneinterestingresultwasthattherewasnoconnectionbetweennarcissismand(helengthoftimethe

分析：that引导表语从句,作was的表语;表语从句主干：therewasnoconnection；between...and…固定

搭配，意为“在和之间“；省略关系词的定语从句thecelebrityhadbeenfamous修饰thelength

【答案】1.A2.C3.C4.B5.D

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了两名青少年为解决葡萄牙火灾后陡峭林地难以人工植树的问题，

发明并改进植树机器人Trovador的故事。

［详解］12.原文第一段“Mostofthemarconthehighandsteep（陡的）ground.Thismakesitalmostimpossible

fbrpeopletoclimbupandreplanttreessafbly.”提到大部分被烧毁的林地位于高而陡峭的地带，所以人们难以

安全攀爬和植树。

1.原文第二段提到“Itcouldplantyoungtrees28percentfasterthanhumans,and9outof10treesitplanted

survived”，说明初代机器人成功的原因是：种树比人类快，且种下的树成活率接近90%,对应C选项“它

工作速度快，且能让几乎所有树存活

2.原文第三段“Thenewmodelisbeingbuiltwithlightweightmaterialssoitwon'thurtthesoilwhichismade

weakbyfires.”说明使用轻量化材料是为了避免损伤火灾后脆弱的土壤。
