One was about the Smith family who had just lost theirfour-year-old son to cancer. His older brother was in deep sorrow. Could Della help?That message and the 30 or so others like it were exactly what Della was looking for. To celebrate her 53rd, the long-time social service professional had put out a call on her blog.She wanted to commit 53 random acts of kindness by the end of her birth month, and she needed information on people who could use one. When she got the note about the Smith family,she sent a wind chime(风铃)with the message“Listen to the wind and know that I amnear”written on it. It now hangs in the four-year-old’s bedroom, where his older brother can go to listen to it whenever he wants.This is not the first time that Della has decided to give gifts for her birthday. For her 47th, in 2016, she founded Love in Action, an organization committed to doing something good near her home and beyond. Its aim is simple: Do Your Best, Show Your Love!Over the years, the organization has reached out and touched well over 100 strangers, some found via Dclla’s blog, others with help from her grandkids. The organization also shares inexpensive and creative gift ideas for others to help people in need.Della pays for everything herself: gift cards, pay-it-forward purchases at drive-throughs, and care packages, as well as the gas it takes to play fairy.

Known as nature’s engineers, they tear trees down to build homes to live in and dams to raise water levels for protection from enemies. Dams also slow water’s flow while blocking sediment(沉积物)that would otherwise flow downstream. The resulting wetlands often attract wildlife diversity where none had existed. There are challenges, though. Beaver dams sometimes cause flooding, and most people prefer trees alive and upright.Communities face a delicate balancing act, learning to coexist with beavers. Last winter, many people enjoying Winston Path became beaver fans as one furry family transformed Swallow Pond into an oasis for birds, frogs, turtles and deer.Yet such activity caused concern. As beavers worked, they raised water levels about five feet. The increased depth allows beavers to survive underwater if the pond ices over. But county officials were concerned about how higher water would affect the soil bank supporting Winston Path.To find a good balance between protecting the path and the beavers, the county introduced a“ beaver baffle”— a pond leveler.Beavers often rush to fill holes in theirdams.Baffles stabilize water levels by creating a hidden exit for high water to escape through the dam, unnoticed by the beavers.People love the beavers but they also love the mature trees. Recently, Catherine Jones,18, organized a tree-caging event — putting wire cloth around large tree trunks to discourage beavers from biting t hem. It also protects people from injury due to random trees falling.“We cover the trees we don’t want them to eat, while planting periodically others they like,“said Jones.“We need-to learn to give up a little of our wants to share the Earth’s resources.”Swallow Pond’s 2023 project will restore proper water depth and improve wildlife habitat without creating problems for the path. The balancing act continues.8.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.Where beavers’ favorite surroundings are.B.What effects beavers have on their habitat.C.Why beavers are called nature’s engineers.D.How beavers help attract wildlife diversity.9.Why did the beaver family’s activity cause concern?A.Swallow Pond would flood often.B.Sediment would flow downstream.C.The popular path might be damaged.D.Beavers might have to live underwater.10.What do the underlined words“beaver baffle”refer to in paragraph 4?A．A block to keep beavers away. B．A tool to fix holes in the dams.C．A device to maintain water level. D．A material to protect the soil bank.11.What is the theme of Swallow Pond’s 2023 project?A．Biological diversity. B．Harmonious coexistence. C．Prevention of natural disasters. D．Preservation of wildlife habitat.Some bacteria(细菌)have a superpower that scientists would love to use. These bacteria gain energy from light, just as plants do.Scientists have wanted to use cyanobacteria(蓝藻菌)to make electricity. But in previous research, they didn’t survive long on artificial surfaces. Researchers have now moved them to a living surface — a mushroom. Their creation is the first mushroom to make electricity.Applied Physicist Simon Jackson and his team turned that mushroom into a mini energyfarm. This bionic(生物电子的)mushroom combines 3D printing, conductive ink and bacteria to generate electricity. Its design could lead to new ways of combining nature with electronics.Like plants, cyanobacteria make their own food from sunlight, releasing electrons(电子). When enough electrons build up in one place, they can create an electric current.The researchers needed to bring a lot of these bacteria together. They decided to use 3D printing to place them precisely onto a surface.Jackson’s team chose mushrooms for that surface. After all, they realized, mushrooms naturally host communities of bacteria and other microbes. Finding test subjects for their tests was easy. Jackson simply went to the grocery store and picked up white button mushrooms.Printing on those mushrooms, though, turned out to be a real challenge. 3D printers have been designed to print on flat surfaces, but mushroom caps are curved. The researchers spent months writing computer code to solve the problem. Eventually, they came up with a program to 3D print their ink onto the curved mushroom tops.The researchers printed two“inks”onto their mushrooms. One was a green ink made of cyanobacteria. They used this to make a spiral pattern on the cap. They also used a black ink made of graphene, which is great at conducting electricity. They printed this ink in a branching pattern across the mushroom top.Then it was time to shine.“Cyanobacteria are the real heroes here,”says Jackson. When his team shone light on the mushrooms, the bacteria gave out electrons. Those electrons flowed into the graphene and created an electric current.12.What was the problem in previous research?A.Cyanobacteria didn’t produce electrons.B．Cyanobacteria couldn’t get enough light.C.The researchers chose the wrong bacteria.D.No suitable home was made for cyanobacteria.13.Why were mushrooms finally chosen as test subjects?A.They are convenient to find.B.They can produce electric currents.C.They are where bacteria can naturally grow.D.They can be easily combined with 3D printing.14.What is the major function of the black ink in this test?A.To feed bacteria.B.To deliver electrons.C.To produce electricity.D.To reshape mushroom tops.15.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Who are the real heroes?B.New application of 3D printingC.Nature combined with electronsD．Bionic mushroom makes electricity二、七选五Home gardens produce delicious food.But that’s not their main virtue.Imagine a plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One came out of a super-market box, probably harvested unripe. 16 The other was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten. The first one will probably taste like a slightly sour grape while the second is likely to be sweet and rich in flavour.Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages. They are convenient and available in the northern globe even in February. But the two berries differ from each other in the same way that hearing Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata in a concert hall differs from listening to it on an old tape. 17Other people, however, believe gardening a waste of time. But the same could be said of cooking. There are cheap and decent restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals? 18 They mistake the product for the purpose.Actually, a garden, especially in the early years, can produce little but frustration(挫败感). New gardeners may plant the wrong crops for their soil. Rabbits have an annoying habit of taking single bites of vegetable, then leaving the rest to go bad. 19 No matter. The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it. The deepest pleasure — as with cooking, writing, bringing up children or almost anything worthwhile — is in the work itself.A gardener’s memories revolve not around the food produced, but around long afternoons with hands in the dirt.20A.No one can ever avoid this hard stage.B.So why don’t we start home gardening for delicious food?C.This might explain why many people desire a home garden.D.These people misunderstand the ultimate appeal of gardening.E.By the time it reached the plate it may have been off the plant for days.F.To garden is to patiently and lovingly help life grow, in the ground and above it.G.And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to uncooperative weather.三、完形填空At school, art class is fun. We 21 with different techniques and generally get creative. However, a field trip to an art gallery is often 22 . Last year my art teacher organized a trip to an art exhibition. The gallery was full of older people, who obviously didn’t want to be with 23 students. We all got 24 and couldn’t stop chatting. Our teacher was getting 25 and kept telling us to be quiet.The next day we complained to our teacher about the 26 of activities for teens at art galleries. She 27 that a visit should be both educational and fun. That’s when I decided to go online and look for art galleries that have special 28 for teens. Eventually, I 29 to find a huge range of activities and proposed some to my teacher.I also used the 30 to learn about artists. Recently, I found a contemporary artist called Martin Bailey. I’ve 31 seen artists who combine different techniques, but Bailey is totally different. He does unique illustrations with32 household objects such as umbrellas, headphones and even cookies. His art is simple, but it makes you see things 33 . For example, he notices that a flower is similar to a mop(拖把) and puts this 34 into life by drawing a little man with a real flower mop. It’s really 35 ! I hope I’ll be able to go to an exhibition of his work in the future.21．A．deal B．start C．struggle D．experiment 22．A．disappointing B．challenging C．exciting D．interesting 23．A．noisy B．careless C．attentive D．creative 24．A．annoyed B．bored C．lost D．worried25．A．weak B．sensitive C．stressed D．tired 26．A．lack B．theme C．result D．schedule 27．A．announced B．demanded C．suggested D．agreed 28．A．gifts B．prices C．paintings D．events 29．A．happened B．determined C．managed D．expected 30．A．activity B．internet C．trip D．exhibition 31．A．already B．never C．merely D．obviously 32．A．useful B．fancy C．suitable D．ordinary 33．A．clearly B．directly C．differently D．critically 34．A．design B．idea C．plant D．tool 35．A．abstract B．amusing C．strange D．practical四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

What will students do in the course?A. Interview award-winning guests.B. Help authors improve their articles.C. Connect with professional publishers.D. Edit one article for Gen Z Era.23. A graduating senior applying for a Day Program on April 30, 2024 should pay _______.A.$5,100B.$5,500C.$6,200D. $6,600BCourage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I constantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The root of“courage”is “cor,” the Latin word for heart. Originally, courage meant“to speak one’s mind by telling all one's heart.”While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountain-climbing trip with my15-year-old daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions to rest, she persisted until she couldn't breathe properly.Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check out on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak.“You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter,“I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you'll get there too.”“Yeah, don't let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It's okay to admit when you're struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it's important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That's how we improve and grow.”Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle.I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it's okay to be the least experienced in a group.

One even cried with happiness.” The setting for these tearful scenes? Navis's restaurant in a Dutch city. Here, the owner and his team create experimental food using herbs, roots, flowers and nuts—some common, others less so.Most of these ingredients(食材) come from the Ketelbroek Food Forest nearby. To the untrained eye, it's like an ordinary wood. But there's one key difference: everything in it is edible. It was set up in 2009 by Dutch botanist and environmentalist Noah Eck as an experiment in slow farming, to see what would happen if the right combination of food plants were left to grow together like a natural forest, without chemicals.“It's the first ‘food forest’ of its kind in Europe and we’re one of the few restaurants around the world cooperating in this way,”says Navis.“We have over 400 different species of edible plants we plan our menus around, including some we previously knew little about." He harvests the ingredients and, with his fellow chefs, works them into beautifully presented tasting menus, served in a dining room hidden in the backstreets of the city,“To us, fine dining is not about the fame of a restaurant, its location, expensive decoration, fancy cooking and wine list,”says Navis.“It's about adding value through creativity and using ingredients nobody knows of, which are grown with great attention.”However, he adds, luxury cooking can be about enhancing everyday ingredients, too.“When looking at cooking in this way, who can argue that caviar(鱼子酱), for example, is more valuable than a carrot grown with specialist knowledge?”Experimentation is extremely important to Navis. In the next five years, he hopes to open an outdoor restaurant. But for now, the most important thing is to continue focusing on how plants are being grown and the perennial system used in the Food Forest, reducing the need for replanting each season.28. What can we learn about Navis's restaurant?A. It is well received by its guests.B. It serves food with moving stories.C. It offers experimental food for free.D. It is known for its rare food sources.29. How is Ketelbrock Food Forest different from ordinary woods?A. It is a natural forest.B. Diverse plants coexist in it.C. Plants there take longer to grow.D. It provides safe food ingredients.30. What is the key element of fine dining according to Navis?A. Convenient locations.B. Expensive ingredients.C. Innovative menus.D. Fancy cooking techniques.31. What does “the perennial system” in the last paragraph probably refer to?A. The sustainable farming practice.B. Farming with proper use of chemicals.C. Natural farming without human intervention.D. An experimental farm for an outdoor restaurant.DMy father started learning French at 57, drawn by the potential benefits of bilingualism in delaying dementia (失智症). Now,20 years later, he's on his third teacher. Many people like my father have attempted to pick up a new language. But can this really boost brain health?According to experts, regularly using a new language brings cognitive(认知的) benefits. If you're trying to recall the right words in another language, your brain is forced to inhibit your mother tongue. This process, called cognitive inhibition, helps improve your brain function. Repeating this process makes your brain more resistant to diseases like dementia. The more you challenge your brain, the better it functions, even if your brain health starts to decline.However, evidence for the benefits of learning a second language in your 60s is weaker. Research by Dr. Leo Antoniou found that older Italians who took English lessons for four months didn't see any difference in their cognition scores, but people who didn't saw their scores decline. Prof. Diana Smith's 2023 studies found similar results.Researchers offered a few potential explanations for their disappointing results. One is that the participants were highly motivated volunteers, probably of high cognitive level for their age, making it hard to see any improvements. “When choosing participants, we have to be careful, are they really representative of the population?” said Dr. Judith Ware. Another is that the language interventions were perhaps too short. These studies have used language lessons that “were very different in their length and frequency,” said Prof. Laura Grossman.To Dr. Antoniou, the limited findings are not entirely surprising. No one would say that learning a new languagefor six months would be the same as having used two languages for your entire life. But he does think that language lessons can provide cognitive benefits by being cognitively stimulating.Perhaps more important, Prof. Grossman said, learning another language offers other potential advantages, like traveling or connecting with new communities. My father, for example, has remained pen friends with his first teacher and traveled to France numerous times.And at 76, he's as sharp as ever.32. What happens in the process of “cognitive inhibition” ?A. Memory improves.B. Native language is held back.C. Dementia is cured.D. Brain health worsens.33. Which is a possible explanation for the disappointing research results?A. The intervention of the first language.B. The great length of the language course.C. The poor choice of research participants.D. The age difference of the research subjects.34. Whose opinion does the author support by mentioning his father's experience?A. Leo Antoniou's.B. Diana Smith's.C. Judith Ware's.D. Laura Grossman's.35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Is it never too late to learn a new language?B. Can learning a new language delay dementia?C. Why does my father start learning a new language?D. How does learning a new language benefit aging brain?第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Kids won’t always come out on top.Still，they deserve kudos (赞誉) for trying their best.Tenyearold April Cutler，for example，has had trouble with math since second grade.“She usually gets C’s on her report card，but last year she was determined to get A’s and worked hard at it，”says her mom.“When the first grading period ended，April was disappointed when she got a B minus in math，”Lueille continues.“But my husband and I told her we were very proud that she’d improved.That inspired her to try even harder.She got a B plus for the next period！”4．Letting them make decisions and mistakes.Making his/her own decisions increases a child’s sense of control and builds his/her selfesteem (自尊心)．And allowing kids to make wrong decisions—so long as doing so won’t harm them—helps kids learn from their mistakes.5．Encouraging them to solve their own problems.As they grow，children need practice in communicating，standing up for themselves and compromising.One of the best places to learn these skills is at home.So the next time your child runs to you complaining that her brother is blaming her，step back and let them work it out.46．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To encourage parents to admire their kids.B．To show how to praise kids.C．To help kids study harder.D．To give advice on how to help kids become mature.47．The passage is mainly intended for________.A．kids B．parents C．teachers D．educators48．From the example of April Cutler，we can learn that________.A．praising kids’efforts can help them make greater progressB．setting a high goal makes kids feel discouragedC．solving problems by themselves helps kids feel confidentD．interest is the best teacher49．Why should parents allow kids to make mistakes?A．Making mistakes is a normal thing for a kid.B．Adults also make mistakes now and then.C．Kids can learn something valuable from their mistakes.D．Making mistakes won’t harm kids.BWhen you were looking for a reliable，honest auto mechanic，how did you find him？Before you went into that restaurant you recently tried，how did you know that it served great food？If you are like most people on the planet，you want to lower your risk of a big ugly surprise so you asked people you trust to refer to a business they trust.Marketers call this friendtofriend recognition of a business “wordofmouth”advertising.When you do a great job for your customer or a bad job，people are going to talk about your business.Unfortunately，because we humans seem to feel negative emotions more intensively than positive ones，we’re more likely to tell more of our friends about bad experiences with a business than positive ones.Understand this：Customers believe their own experience.You can’t make them believe that your company is wonderful when they felt they were treated badly.So，to get positive wordofmouth going for your business in this servicebased economy，you’ve got to do a really outstanding job for everyone，exactly.And when you do，you build a great reputation.That takes time.But it forms a close link with your customers in a way that no advertising and no promotional coupon (优惠券) ever could.The good news is that because there are so many different businesses chasing after your customers’money，people want to know whom they can trust.So people are going to be talking about you.Create a free sales force for your business—an army of delighted customers who tell everyone that they know how good your company is to do business with.That’s a great antidote (解毒剂) to defectionitis.50．What is the main topic of this passage?A．A good name will bring you money.B．A person should rely on his friends for business.C．Advertising can make customers believe it’s wonderful.D．A company can rely on its associates to survive.51．According to the passage，whether we go to a place or not depends on________.A．business fame B．media assistanceC．particular recognition D．associates’recommendation52．When you do an outstanding job in service，you will surely________.A．make more money than you expectB．have a mutual understanding with your customersC．build a great reputation immediatelyD．earn your fame as well as advertise for your company53．The underlined word “defectionitis”probably means________.A．service imperfection B．customers’distrustC．customers’protection D．service advertisementCRalph and Norton can grow to be 40 feet long and live in a tank as large as a football field.What are they？They’re the only two whale sharks at a North American aquarium (水族馆)．You can see Ralph and Norton at the world’s largest aquarium，the new Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta.The aquarium’s giant tanks hold eight million gallons of water and will be home to about 100,000 fish!The aquarium was designed to look like a giant ship breaking through the waves.It has 60 different habitats from the sea and five galleries (展馆)，each with a different theme.About 2.4 million visitors are expected to come each year.“We_want_to_be_the_world’s most_engaging aquarium.”said Jeff Swanagan，the aquarium’s executive director.Ralph and Norton arrived in June,2005 from Taiwan.They were only 15 and 13 feet long，but they may grow to be more than 40 feet long！Whale sharks are the world’s largest fish.Three fulltime vets will work there to makesure that Ralph，Norton，and all of the aquarium’s sea life stay healthy.Students from the University of Georgia will help run the aquarium and conduct research at the animal hospital.The aquarium was paid for almost completely by a $200 million gift from Berne Marcus，cofounder of the Home Depot Inc，and his wife，Billi.“It’s going to be the most unique aquarium in the world，”said Marcus.Marcus said the aquarium was a “thank you”note to the city of Atlanta and the State of Georgia，where the Home Depot first opened for business.54．According to this passage，Ralph and Norton are________.A．polar bears B．whale sharksC．penguins D．dolphins55．The world’s largest aquarium located in________.A．Los Angeles B．New York C．Atlanta D．Miami56．By saying “We want to be the world’s most engaging aquarium”，Jeff Swanagan means________.A．the aquarium will attract a large number of visitorsB．the aquarium will be home to very special sea animalsC．the aquarium will be rebuilt and will be made even largerD．the aquarium will be the largest habitat for sea lifeDStarting the day on an egg could keep your blood pressure (血压) under control，research suggests.Scientists have shown that eggs produce proteins with a function similar to that of powerful blood pressurelowering drugs.The researchers，from the University of Alberta in Canada，showed that when eggs come in contact with stomach enzymes (酶) they produce a protein that acts in the same way as ACE inhibitors，drugs taken by millions around the world to lower blood pressure.Fried eggs proved particularly effective，but more work is needed to show the effects outside a lab and in the human body.Earlier this month，British researchers declared that，contrary to popular beliefs，it is healthy to go to work on an egg.They concluded that the type of cholesterol (胆固醇) found in eggs has little effect on increasing heart disease risks.Researcher Professor Bruce Griffin，from the University of Surrey，said，“The wrong beliefs linking egg eating to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected.The amount of fat in our diet has an effect on blood cholesterol that is several times greater than the relatively small amount of cholesterol found in eggs.The UK public do not need to limit the number of eggs they eat.They can be encouraged to include them in a healthy diet as they are one of nature’s most nutritious foods.”The British Heart Foundation dropped its threeeggaweek limit in 2005.However，almost half of Britons believe the limit still applies.57．From the text we know that ACE inhibitors are________.A．a kind of medicine B．a kind of proteinC．a kind of illness D．a kind of food58．According to what Professor Bruce said，eggs________.A．are the most nutritious foodB．have no effect on blood cholesterolC．can be included in a healthy dietD．are forbidden to be eaten in the UK59．We can infer from the text that________.A．drugs to lower blood pressure will be replaced by eating eggsB．stomach enzymes mixed with eggs can cure heart diseasesC．most Britons agree the threeeggaweek limit should be droppedD．about 50% of Britons think eating an egg a day is bad for their health60．The text is meant________.A．to introduce scientific findings about eggsB．to introduce a medicine made from eggsC．to tell people how to lower their blood pressureD．to advise people to eat as many eggs as possible第二节(共5 小题；每小题2分，满分10分)A．Argue with your boss everything you wantB．Make the issues clearC．Watch your timingD．Don’t go in when you are angryE．Propose your solutionF．Put yourself in the boss’s position61.Before you argue with your boss，check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood.If he ate nails for breakfast，it is not a good idea to ask him for something.Even without the boss’s secretary，there are keys to timing：don’t approach the boss when he’s on deadline；don’t go in right before lunch，when he is apt to be distracted and rushed；don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.62.If you are mad，that will only make your boss mad.Calm down first.And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration.The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind.Then，maybe he will dismiss you.63.Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss.Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear.The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understands it.64.Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more.If you can’t put forward an immediate solution，at least suggest how to approach the problem.People who frequently present problems without solutions to their bosses may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.65.To deal effectively with a boss，it’s important to consider his goals and pressure.If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss，then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.第三部分：写作(共三节，满分55分)第一节单词拼写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)66．He seems very________(严肃)，but in fact he has a delightful sense of humor.67．He________(道歉) to his teacher for not finishing his homework on time.68．I’d like to take this________(机会) to express my thankfulness to you for your timely help.69．It is________(无礼的) to speak with your mouth full of food.70．He________(犹豫) before he answered because he didn’t know what to say.71．It was so cloudy that the top of the mountain was________(看不见的)．72．Boy as he is，he has a large________(收藏) of stamps.73．One of his________(抱负) is to become the President of the Motor General.74．The two small shops________(结合) to make a large one.75．It was a difficult situation and he________(对付) it very well.第二节短文改错(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)Dear Brown，Last summer I take a parttime job in the International Camp for children.I have been told one more worker will be needed in this year and I think you are fit to it.How about join us？The camp is at the foot of a small hill close to a river.It is so a beautiful place！We can hear birds singing happy all around.Everybody sleeps in tents，that is very exciting.We usually work only five hours a day，so we will have plenty of spare time visit the area and have a fun.I am sure it will be an unforgettable experience.If you have interests in it，reply to me

"Dad, why did The Wild Robot have to be so sad?" He tearfully asked me.The story is set on a remote island, where a robot named Roz learns to survive and communicate with the island's creatures, and becomes part of the community. For my son, it was the first book he discovered on his own; the first to impact him with the mix of tragedy （悲剧） and joy.When I finished the book, I knew why Henry loved it. In our book club discussion, he described how Brown's pictures and words had made the story feel real. When talking about its final scenes, where Roz leaves to find repairs for her injured body, Henry cried again. His previous reading experiences had cheerful, "happily-ever-after" endings, but this book introduced him to the beauty of complex emotions. I tried to explain low sadness can enhance the meaning of happy moments, but failed to fully convince him.Once our discussion ended, Henry requested to buy The Wild Robot Escapes and instantly fell in love with it. He read the first two books repeatedly, so you can imagine his excitement when we finally got a copy of The Wild Robot Protects.We both agree il is worth the wait. Roz leaves the island again to stop an underwater threat: "the poison tide. " Brown expertly balances between breathtaking adventure and unsettling ideas-not just happiness and sadness, but also, given the climate-change undercurrents, hope and despair.And, here's something special about Roz: her physical clumsiness and confusion about life, conveyed through her expressive eyes' and downturned mouth. Her story reflects the challenges of surviving in a strange place, much like a child's journey. Readers love Roz. They learn from her. Even better, they learn alongside her. Roz gave Henry the power to push through the first book's sad parts, getting him ready to appreciate that, sometimes, sadness isn't a bad thing to feel.24. What drove the author to read The Wild Robot?A. Its tragic ending.B. Henry's tearful recommendation.C. Its attractive cover.D. Henry's emotional response to it.25. What is one theme of The Wild Robot Protects?A. Family and community.B. Concerns of global issues.C. Exploration of the ocean.D. Man-robot relationship.26. What makes Roz in the trilogy special?A. Her childlike expressions.B. Her robotic power.C. Her struggling experiences.D. Her adventurous spirit.27. Which message does this text seem to communicate?A. Misfortune inspires great literary works.B. Robot stories work like magic on children.C. Book discussions help kids survive tragedies.D. Reading literature facilitates personal growth.CWhen adult humans meet a baby, many can't help speaking in a higher-pitched （更高音的）, sing-songy voice. This shift, known as parentese, is not unique to humans it has also been observed in animals like monkeys and gorillas. Now, scientists are adding one more species to that list: bottlenose dolphins.Dolphins are intelligent animals that live and hunt in groups. They communicate in a unique way: every individual produces its own signature sound that acts much like an ID card, usually by its first birthday. But how does each come up with its distinctive whistle? For babies, it might have something to do with listening to Mum. To solve this mystery, researchers examined the sounds mother dolphins, make.Scientists studied 34 years' worth of recordings of sounds made by 19 female bottlenose dolphins. When the mother dolphins were near their young, they continued to make their signature sound, but at a higher frequency. They also used a wider range of frequencies than they did when their babies were not nearby.This discovery suggests that using these modifications mother dolphins assist their young in learning how to produce these calls themselves. Since dolphin babies often spend some years with their mothers before living on their own, it makes sense that this adaptation would help them learn to communicate. At the very least, the higher-pitched whistle likely gets the babies' attention. "It's important for a baby to know, "Oh, Mum's talking to me now, " says marine biologist June Mann.This kind of research could help us understand how language developed in humans. "It is absolutely essential to have basic knowledge about other species and how they communicate, " says Mann. "I would be really interested to see whether dolphins also change their sounds when interacting with babies of others, which is what happens in humans. "28. What do the underlined words "this mystery" refer to in paragraph 2?A. Why dolphins live and play in groups.B. How dolphins develop their unique sounds.C. What aspects of intelligence dolphins possess.D. Whether dolphins can use parentese like humans.29. How did the researchers carry out their study of dolphins?A. By analyzing mother dolphins' sound features.B. By recording parent-child interaction frequency.C. By measuring the distance between parent and child.D. By examining the speech organs of mother dolphins.30. What is a suggested reason why dolphin mothers use parentese with their young?A. To help them learn to talk.B. To teach them bunting skills.C. To express worry and care.D. To distract their attention.31. What is the purpose of the text?A. To compare the parentese of humans and dolphins.B. To illustrate the development of dolphin intelligence.C. To share new findings about dolphin communication.D. To highlight the value of studying dolphins' language.DThere's a classic short story in which a young man travels years ahead and meets his future self. Narratives like this have always been related to science fiction. But what if you could meet your future self?I'm a psychologist and professor. My research over the past 15 years isn't far from this theme. I've largely focused on how people think about and relate to their future selves, and explored the reasons why we have such a hard time making long-terra decisions. In my research, I've learnt thatwe often imagine our future selves like strangers, which can impede us in making long-term choices. One way to bridge the emotional gap is to think of future selves in more concrete and vivid ways, like writing letters to and from one's future self, which can strengthen the connection between current and future selves.Admittedly, having people engage in an imagined conversation is a far cry from actually meeting one's future self. But it's believed that far richer interactions may happen in the near future through artificial intelligence （AT）. It wouldn't be predicting exactly what choices you'd make. It'd be more about showing your potential, based on the lives of people similar to you: not just one possible life for you, but rather, the most possible life path for you. Such interactions could offer valuable insights into our potential future selves.So, to return to my original question: if you could time-travel to meet your future self, what aspects of your life world you want to know more about? I realized, through thorough reflections, that the most powerful questions would be ones that helped me make better choices today -- questions exploring personal growth, regrets and unfulfilled actions.Actually, you don't need to wait for time travel or advanced AI for answers that you can act on. Through my research, I've learnt that simply taking a bit of time to picture this meeting can help you make better choices now. All you need is a little imagination, and the willingness to put yourself in the shoes of a person you currently treat as a stranger.32. Why is it difficult for people to make long-term decisions according to the author?A. Technology for time travel is not available.B. Strangers cannot help with decision-making.C. Writing letters to one's future self is impractical.D. People find it hard to connect with their distant selves.33. What does the underlined phrase "a far cry from" mean in paragraph 3?A. contradictory toB. very different fromC. not as convenient asD. less popular than34. Which question would the author most likely ask his future self?A. Why hasn't my hard work ever paid off?B. What can AI do to help people become better persons?C. If given the chance, what would you have done differently?D. How can I succeed without going through all the difficulties in life?35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Time travel: What if you met your future self?B. My research: How do people view their future selves?C. Emotional gap: Why can't we talk with our future selves?D. Artificial intelligence: Is it possible to meet your future self?第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AIf you are looking for something fun and educational to do in Maryland,why not visit the Maryland Science Center?It is located at 601 Light Street,Baltimore,MD 2.The ticket prices vary depending on ages,groups and the exhibits you choose.IntroductionThe Maryland Science Center is basically a museum,but it gives everyone a chance to learn through experience and play,rather than just glance at an exhibit.ActivitiesYou can learn about various topics,including outer space,the human body,dinosaurs,electricity,marine （海洋的）biology,energy,and much more.You can also take part in the interactive activities,such as racing bubbles,digging for dinosaur fossils,using puzzle pieces to construct cars,and so much more.The Davis Planetarium（天文馆）At the Davis Planetarium,you can lie back in a chair and look at the stars while still inside the Science Center.

I remember my struggles in class."I don't know the answer,"I would say,"I can’t do it!"“Perhaps you don't know the answer,”he wou ld say quietly."Do you think we might figure it out together?How do you know what you can do until you try?"Mr.Myrus lived around the comer,and I would often stop by to talk while he worked in his garden.I knew there was someone who let me know that if I had really tried,that was enough."Don't be so hard on yourself,"he'd say."Stop blaming yourself.Did you try your best?Well,then you're not a failure,"he often told me these words.Mr.Myrus died in 1978.I had never thought about his death.He was too young.I felt sorry.But when I think about him now,I don't feel so sorry.He taught me to be kind,not only to others,but to myself.He taught me my own value.He taught me about honor,about truth,and about doing my best—and that all feelings and beliefs have dignity and deserve respect.And of all the things I know,this I believe: We can't all be “the best”,but we can,each of us,be our best,and I know that's true because Mr.Myrus told me that.11.What can we learn about Mr.Myrus according to the passage?A.He is usually hard on the students.B.He is responsible for his students and his teaching.C.He is a person who isn't particular about what be wears.D.He sometimes is cruel and unreasonable to his students.12.What does the underlined word “dema ndi ng” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A.Strict.B.Serious.C.Critical.D.Careful.13.Why did the author think he was a lucky dog?A.He had got a great belief from his teacher.B.Mr.Myrus trad been his teacher for eightyears.C.He became interested in math because of Mr.Myrus.D.He developed a good relationship with Mr.Myrus.14.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A.Mr.Myrus thought it very easy to learn math.B.The author preferred other subjects to math.C.The author was ashamed to admit his poor math.D.Mr.Myrus helped the author build up his confidence.15.What can we conclude by reading the passage?A.The author may have become a teacher.B.The author liked to recall his childhood.C.The author believed he would be the best of all.D.The author ended up being a man of self-confidence.DIn an unmanned supermarket,a customer waits to pay.With the use of advanced digital payment technology, including biological recognition and in-depth learning,the man leaves in a minute.There's no cashier in the store.At a large university,students use a hand-scanning machine that authorizes their entry into the gym.Those people are using “smart mac hi nes” which iden tify people by their physical characteristics.These new devices use fingers,hands, faces,eyes and voices.Some machines may even use smells.This new technology,called biometrics,gets information from parts of the body.In the past,biometric machines were used mainly in government agencies or in prisons.But now that the cost of the technology is lower,these machines are starting to be used everywhere,from border services to schools.Some people,however,are concerned that these machines will mean the destruction of personal privacy.They worry that the machines will get personal information about them.“I know it seems like these machines are invading our privacy,but actually,biometric machines help to protect it,”say s Jay Tarkett,who works at a company that develops the machines.“They can be used instead of passwords on a computer,for example.They can also identify criminals at airports.So,really,they help to promote public safety,and all the information stored is kept conf idential by the machine itself.”Some people don't like the idea of using fingerprints because they associate them with criminals,andfeel like they are being accused of something.In addition,they don't work for some people,such as bricklayers,who wear down their fingerprints.Yet,face recognition does work well because the subject doesn't really have to do anything.To cash a check at a bank,for example,the customer has to do nothing more than look at a machine similar to an automatic teller.If the face matches the picture kept on fie,the customer gets the money with no problems.The need to carry identification with you from place to place,then,would all but cease.It has been found that the hand scan works well in the college gym.Before this machine was used,students at the college entered the gym using cards similar to credit cards.The problem was that students often lost or forgot their cards.With the hand-scanning machine,however,the problem was solved right away.But the machines are still new,and there can be problems.For example,voice recognition works on the phone, but it is not precise,and can be tricked.Another constraint（限制）we notice,with machines that use face recognition in particular,is that they can be fooled if people color their hair or gain a lot of weight.However,this particular problem may be solved by a new type of technology that scans a person's iris,the colored part of the eye.It can even identify the person from a few feet away,recognizing a customer as he or she approaches the ATM.16.What's the author's intention by presenting two examples in Paragraph 1?A.To stress how smart machines work.B.To bring in the topic of the passage.C.To show the popularity of smart machines.D.To introduce the convenience smart machines offer.17.Why don't people like using finger-prints while using the machine?A.They want to keep their mistakes a secret.B.They don't want to damage their fingers.C.They are afraid of losing money in the bank.D.They are afraid of being thought of as criminals.18.Why are biometric machines starting to be used in many fields?A.They are not as expensive as they were.B.They no longer invade people's privacy.C.People enjoy face and voice recognition.D.Criminals are often hidden at airports.19.What is the author's attitude towards the new technology?A.Worried.B.Bitter.C.Optimistic.D.Satisfied.20.What is the passage mainly about?A.An introduction to biometric machines.B.An advertisement for biometric machines.C.A brief description of hand scanning machines.D.An analysis of biometric machines' value in economy.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ABritain is arguably the great walking nation. About two-thirds of us already head out to stretch our legs once a week. The following festivals offer a wealth of organized walks, but walkers should register in advance.Prestatyn and Clwydian Range festivalVisitors to Wales tend to move west, to either the well-worn tracks of Snowdonia or the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. There are 25 walks packed into the three days, with various options available, including a half-mile Roman-themed adventure, an eight-mile walk exploring the life of 18th-century Welsh naturalist and travel writer ThomasPennant and a 21-mile Offa’s Dyke challenge. All walks are free. Denbighshire, Wales, 19-21 MayOtley walking festivalThis local festival has grown from humble origins in 2000 into a busy schedule of 50 short-distance walks and events celebrating the lives and landscapes of Wharfedale in West Yorkshire. One might enjoy the Five Pubs Walk, Walking With Wine, Four More Pubs or Lost Pubs of Otley. All walks are free, though there is sometimes a small charge for transport.Otley, West Yorkshire, 24 June-3 JulyDartmoor offroading walking festivalDartmoor delights (使高兴) walkers because, while tracks are there to be followed, the lack of wire and other barriers, and the relatively small number of farm buildings on the higher ground, create a sensation of freedom. The six free wheelchair walks, starting daily at 11am, explore Dartmoor’s industrial history, bronze age valuables and Victorian railway builders.Devon, 27 August-2 SeptemberGower walking festivalWith more superb walking options inside a single landscape than perhaps anywhere else, the Gower peninsula (半岛) sometimes feels as if it’s all coast. The further information for this nine-dayfestival, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Wales Coast Path (WCP), has yet to be finalized.

His home is Guzhang county, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture, which is located deep in western Hunan province. Xiang Qing and his 23-year-old nephew, Xiang Hong, jointly operate a video channel called “Shan Bai”. Through their video s, they showcase handicrafts and rural life in China, captivating (迷住) many young urban viewers.“Life here unfolds at its own pace. We cultivate crops and vegetables and occasionally purchase meat at the market,” Xiang Qing said. “I’ve come across numerou s comments from people who watch our videos while lying in bed at night after a busy day of work, finding them truly relaxing and comforting. I think it’s fantastic, and it’s in line with our initial intentions.”Five years ago, Xiang Qing resigned from his job as a customer service representative in Shanghai and returned to his hometown in Guzhang county, embarking on (开始) a new journey as a video blogger. “Back in 2012, when I was a college student, film-making aroused my passion, and it has continued to be a profound and enduring interest,” he said.Following in his uncle’s footsteps, Xiang Hong made the same life-altering decision. Having graduated from college last year, he also returned to his hometown in April from Changde, a city inHunan, and ventured into the world of video production alongside his uncle.Now their video channel Shan Bai has attracted more than 59.8 million followers. Xiang Qing conceptualizes, films, and edits the videos himself. Xiang Hong serves as the video presenter. Long Lingl ing, Xiang Qing’s wife, manages the day-to-day operations of the video account, and other family members also contribute to the video production process in different ways.4. Why do Xiang Qing and Xiang Hong take video bloggers as their careerA. To pursue personal fame and wealth.B. To financially support their whole family.C To continue their passion for film-making.D. To promote the lifestyle in their hometown.5. What can we learn about Xiang Qing and Xiang HongA. Xiang Qing inspires Xiang Hong in career-making.B. They quit their first job and altered to video making.C. They reached a decision of returning to hometown together.D. They engage in each step of the video production process.6. Which of the following can best describe Xiang Qing and Xiang HongA. Devoted and creative.B. Diligent and optimistic.C. Modest and responsible.D. Ambitious and demanding.7. Where is the text most probably taken fromA. A personal diary.B. A news interview.C. A travel brochure.D. A fashion magazine.COn O ctober 20th comes “Killers of the Flower Moon” from the director Martin Scorsese. At nearly three and a half hours, its length is nearly double that of the average film last year. Even movie fans struggle to concentrate for that long. During the premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May, some viewers dozed off. Afterwards there was a mad dash (and long queue) for the toilets. When did watching a film become such a laborFilm-makers started producing long-lasting movies at a rapid pace in the early 1960s. Cinema was booming and filmmakers wanted to distinguish their art from television. Epics surpassing the three-and-a-half hour mark graced the silver screen. Back then, audiences enjoyed an interval while the projectionist prepared the reels for the next act. Runtimes of popular films experienced ups and downs over subsequent decades. But they have ballooned since 2018.Movie series is one driver of this trend. Studios want to squeeze the most out of their costly intellectual property, but they arecompeting with streaming platforms for eyeballs. The hope is that a spectacular, drawn-out blockbuster (大片) will tempt audiences away from the small screen and into cinemas. This approach has often paid off: “Avengers: Endgame” (2019), which showcased Marvel superheroes remarkably with a runtime of three hours, achieved the highest box office revenue among all films in that year. Anything that attracts people away from their sofas to see a film in theatres is good news for cinemas. But lengthy runtimes also pose a “fundamental problem”, complains Clare Binns of Picturehouse, a British cinema group and film distributor. Long movies can mean abandoning two showings per night, which hurts ticket sales and profits.Another explanation for longer films has to do with dire ctors’ growing influence. Who would dare tell the likes of Mr Nolan to shorten his masterpieces Streamers, which do not have to worry as much about concision because viewers can pause whenever they like, may attract big names with deep pockets and promises of creative freedom. “Killers of the Flower Moon” will debut on AppleTV+ after its theatrical release.8. What can we learn from paragraph 1A. Movie fans tend to have a dislike for long movies.B. Movie theaters should provide adequate restrooms.C. The average movie fan cannot focus for over three hours.D. Long movies affect audience engagement and physical comfort.9. What does the underlined word “ballooned” mean in paragraph 2A. Expanded with air.B. Made great profits.C. Enjoyed great popularityD. Increased rapidly in length.10. Why does the author mention the movie “Avengers: Endgame”A. To demonstrate the trend of longer movies.B. To highlight the success of Marvel series.C. To illustrate the strong appeal of movie series.D To emphasize the studio-streaming platform contest.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the textA. Movie Marathons: Past and PresentB. Long Movies: Impacts and ReasonsC. Filmmaking: Challenges and RewardsD. Streaming Platforms: Promising and ProfitableDTwo and a half millennia ago, Socrates complained that writing would harm students. With a way to store ideas permanently and externally, they would no longer need to memorize. However, studies today have found that writing on paper can improve everything from recalling a random series of words to betterunderstanding complex concepts.For learning material by repetition, the benefits of using a pen or pencil lie in how the motor and sensory memory of putting words on paper reinforces that material. The scribbling (涂鸦) on a page feeds into visual memory: people might remember a word they wrote down in French class as being at the bottom-left on a page. One of the best-demonstrated advantages of writing by hand seems to be in note-taking. Students typing on computers wrote down almost twice as many words directly from lectures, suggesting they were not understanding so much as rapidly copying the material. However, handwriting forces note-takers to process and organize ideas into their own words. This aids conceptual understanding at the moment of writing, resulting in better performance on tests.Many studies have confirmed handwriting’s benefits, and policymakers have taken note. Though America’s curriculum from 2010 does not require handwriting instruction past first grade (roughly age six), about half the states since then have required more teaching of it. In Sweden there is a push for more handwriting and printed books and fewer devices. England’s national curriculum already includes the teaching of basic cursive writing (连写体) skills by age seven.However, several school systems in America have gone so far as to ban most laptops. This is too extreme. Some students have disabilities that make handwriting especially hard. Nearly all will eventually need typing skills. Virginia Berninger, professor of psychology at the University of Washington, is a longtime advocate of handwriting. But she is not a purist; she says there are research tested benefits for “manuscript” print-style writing but also for typing.Socrates may or may not have had a point about the downsides of writing. But no one would remember, much less care, if his student Plato had not noted it down for the benefit of future generations.12. According to the text, why does writing on paper have benefits for learningA. It provides visual enjoyment in class.B. It improves the effect of memorization.C. It promotes the motor and sensory ability.D. It helps to remember the information forever.13. How does the author show the emphasis on handwriting instruction at schoolA. By giving examples.B. By providing statistics.C. By making comparisons.D. By making classification.14. What is paragraph 5 mainly aboutA. Difficulties faced by the disabled.B. Unreasonableness of forbidding typing.C. The research-tested benefits of typing.D. The longtime advocacy for handwriting.15. Why does the writer mention Socrates and Plato in the last paragraphA. To thank Plato for his efforts.B. To defend Socrates’ point of view.C. To show people’s indifference to typing.D. To confirm the importance of handwriting.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

What should you buy for your family or your friend? It could be a Yankees baseball cap if you visit the U.S. in Vietnam, a straw hat called a Non La is a popular tourist gift. If you ever visit Russia, you may want to think about buying a set of Russian dolls (俄罗斯套娃).They are like no other doll.Russian dolls were first made in 1890 and included eight dolls. These were all hand carved (雕刻) and painted. They were dressed in a traditional dress called sarafan. The word “Matryoshka” means matron—an older married woman. The idea was that it meant a family with the mother being at its head. The dolls proved to be very popular and it was not long before every woodworker was making them.The Russian doll appeared at the Paris World’s Fair in 1900. Everyone who saw them wanted one. Soon people visiting Russia also wanted to have one. Being quite small, they could fit into tourists’ luggage (行李) very easily—unlike a Non La! The dolls were all hand carved and painted until about 1930, when factories began producing inexpensive Russian dolls.26．As a tourist gift, where does a Non La most probably come from?A．France B．Russia C．Vietnam D．America 27．What can we learn about the early Matryoshka dolls?A．They were named after an old woman.B．They were images of a big family.C．They were gifts for mothers.D．They were made by hand.28．What happened to the Russian doll at the Paris World’s Fair?A．They were hugely popular.B．They were produced in factories.C．They were put into a small bag.D．They were given to tourists as a gift.Jill tore (撕) the piece of paper and threw it on the floor. It was her third try at a new story. She just couldn’t seem to get the first sentence right.Picking up the pen, she started again.Jill loved to write. She dreamt of being a writer one day. And she knew she had to spend a lot of time practising alone in her room. She wrote in her diary every day, and she wrote at least one story a week. But she was having a lot of trouble with her new story this week.Jill got up off and walked to her desk.She liked her story last week, about a boy in a wheelchair. Her mother liked it too. She said it was the best story Jill had ever written.Jill needed some encouragement, so she decided to read the story again. She opened the drawer (抽屉) of the desk and look through a pile of (一堆) paper. The story wasn’t there. So she looked through the pile again. But it was gone.Running down the stairs, she found her mother in the living room.“Mum, I’ve lost it!” She cried. “I’ve lost my story about the boy in a wheelchair!”Her mother looked up from her book. “It’s not lost.”“But I can’t find it anywhere.”“I mailed it to Teen Tales magazine,” said her mother. “I’m sorry, dear, but it’s too good to sit at home in your desk drawer. If you want to be a writer, you have to start letting people read your stories. Please don’t be angry.”A smile appeared on Jill’s face.She wasn’t angry. Because she knew her mother was right. And now she felt more thanencouraged imagining her story in the Teen Tales magazine.29．What was Jill’s problem?A．She often felt worried.B．She lost her favorite pen.C．She often wrote wrong sentences.D．She had trouble writing her new story. 30．Who was the boy in a wheelchair?A．A reader of Jill’s stories.B．A young writer Jill liked.C．A reader of Teen Tales magazine.D．The main character in one of Jill’sstories.31．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to?A．The wheelchair.B．The drawer.C．The story.D．The diary.32．How did Jill feel about what her mother had done for her?A．Angry.B．Surprised.C．Happy.D．Disappointed.For three days towards the end of 2018, England’s second largest airport, Gatwick, had to cancel hundreds of flights. Over 140,000 passengers were left stranded with nowhere to go. The reason? The local police had received 92 reports of a drone (无人机) being seen flying above the airport. Even though there was not a single photo of this drone, it was decided it was too dangerous for airplanes to take off or land at Gatwick Airport.Ever since drones have become available (可获得的) to the public, there have been concerns about what people may actually do with them. It’s fine to have a drone to take amazing videos and photos for your own enjoyment. It’s not fine for a simple drone bought from a local electronics store to be used to send drugs or to be part of illegal (非法的) activities.This is something that has been challenging both the police and the military (军方) for many years. Time has been spent searching for ways to combat drones being being used for illegal purposes. For example there were suggestions that it would be possible to block an illegal drone’s signal to stop it from flying. However, none of these solutions were used when Gatwick Airport had a problem.Just a few months later, a company in California called Anduril announced that it had designed a solution to the Gatwick drone problem. They called it The Interceptor. The Interceptor is actually a drone itself. However, it is as heavy as a bowling ball. It can fly at160 kilometers per hour and is designed to crash into another drone and destroy it—without destroying itself. It is controlled by artificial intelligence (AI), but will not attack another drone without confirmation from a human controller first. Anduril has now started building The Interceptor and sending them to the military in both the USA and Great Britain. Confidence is so high in this company. It has been able to raise $120 million from banks to help with its development.33．What happened at Gatwick at the end of 2018?A．Many flights were not allowed to take off.B．People reported the airport to the police.C．A drone show was held at the airport.D．A lot of people rushed to the airport.34．What’s the concerns about the drones?A．They may be widely used during wars.B．They may be too expensive for the public.C．They may be used for some illegal activities.D．They may be unable to help people in their daily lives.35．What can we know about The Interceptor?A．It can fly as fast as a plane.B．It was made to destroyed other drones.C．It was created by a British company.D．It has been widely accepted by the market.36．Where does the passage come from?A．A novel.B．An advertisement.C．A diary.D．Newspaper.All of the groups performed well on School Day and received praise from the visitors. In short, our School Day went well and we got no poor opinions from the visitors.Feedback :Opinions from 200 students have been collected. Most students thought the activities were good. However, some students thought the prices of the school postcards were a little too high.Follow-up:Have a meeting with the headmaster about prizes for excellent student helpers. 37．How did the visitors feel about the activities?A．Disappointed.B．Worried.C．Satisfied.D．Surprised. 38．How many students like the recycling bags according to the feedback?A．20B．25C．50D．100 39．Which of the following is TRUE about the activities?A．Nick was the leader of Group 1.B．The postcards were cheap.C．Twenty-four students offered their feedback.D．Student helpers who did well will get prizes.40．The passage is written to ________.A．give a report B．hold School DayC．collect opinions from visitors D．hold a meeting with teachers四、阅读还原5选5阅读短文及文后A~E六个选项，选出可以填入下列各题空白处的最佳选项。
