Megan Piphus Peace is one of them: In late 2021, she became the show’s first full-time black woman puppeteer, playing a 6-year-old black girl named Gabrielle. Last month, she officially left her real estate career. “I always dreamed of working in television, but I never imagined myself being on Sesame Street,” she says.Piphus Peace, now 29, grew up watching Sesame Street. As a young child, she considered the puppets to be her companions, not realizing until she was older that they weren’t real. She has been pursuing puppeteering since then. At Vanderbilt University, where she studied economics, she was known as the “Vanderbilt Ventriloquist (腹语表演者).” She even appeared on The Tonight Show in 2012 and America’s Got Talent in 2013.One of Piphus Peace’s teachers, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, who played the Sesame Street character Abby Cadabby in 2006, says that Piphus Peace is a gifted storyteller and natural leader. “To say that I was amazed by Megan would be an understatement,”Carrara-Rudolph says. “I was inspired by her loving heart, strength of character, humor, humanity and what an energetic creative force she is.”Although Piphus Peace submitted her first video audition (试演) to Sesame Street in 2017, she didn’t hear back until 2020, when Matt Vogel, the puppet captain of the show, reached out to her. “She comes from a different kind of puppetry background than most of other Sesame Street puppet performers,” Vogel says. “We went to college to learn puppetry, or acting schools, etc., but Megan learned the art of ventriloquism by herself.”4.What do we know about Piphus Peace?A.She used to work in television. B.She is now part of Sesame Street. C.She was called Gabrielle at a young age. D.She has been a puppeteer for over 50 years.5.How did Piphus Peace look at the puppets in her childhood?A.She thought they were unreal. B.She considered them to be humorous. C.She found it hard to distinguish them. D.She regarded them as her friends. 6.What does paragraph 3 strongly stress?A.Carrara-Rudolph’s impact on Piphus PeaceB.The striking characteristics of Sesame StreetC.Carrara-Rudolph’s opinion of Piphus PeaceD.The character Abby Cadabby in Sesame Street7.Why is Piphus Peace different from most other performers according to Vogel? A.She is a self-trained ventriloquist. B.She is the most popular performer. C.She has played many different characters. D.She is the only female actress in the show.Reading books can obviously make you a better, smarter entrepreneur. According to a 2018 study of over 160,000 adults in 31 countries, the more books that were present in participants’ childhood homes, the more competent they now were as adults with skills in literacy, mathematics, and technological problem-solving. Researchers note that book-oriented socialization, indicated by home library size, equips youth with lifelong tastes, skill and knowledge.Growing up with home libraries boosts adult skills in literacy, numeracy and technological problem-solving beyond the benefits acquired from parental education or your own educational or occupational attainment. Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesn’t necessarily offset the “lots of books in the home” advantage. Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman [of Inc.] writes, surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you don’t know — which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows the quicker you are to admit you don’t know something, the faster you can then learn it. As Jeff Bezos says, a key sign of intelligence is the willingness to change your mind, something that only happens if you’re willing to admit that your current thinking may not be the best thinking. Modesty, learning and the willingness to change your mind when new data presents itself: That’s another three bonus every entrepreneur can benefit from.8.What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about the research?A.Tough process. B.Inspiring discovery.C.Numerous data. D.Advanced technology.9.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 2?A.Compete with. B.Differ from. C.Go against. D.Compensate for. 10.Why does the author mention Jessica?A.To keep readers intellectually hungry. B.To stress the significance of modesty.C.To remind readers of their ignorance. D.To evidence the benefits of home library.11.What is the passage mainly about?A.Home library size indicates lifelong skills. B.Home reading equals to a college degree.C.Modesty makes a promising entrepreneur. D.Childhood libraries lead to adulthood success.The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.When you are on a bicycle, you have the strength of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.12.You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.A.you will break the traffic rulesB.you will cause much noiseC.you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights wellD.you can’t drive into some parks13.The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ________. A.you can take photos of animalsB.it is a cheap way of travelingC.you can get a clearer sight of animalsD.it is a good way to do sunbathing14.Which of the following words has the same meaning as the word underlined in the third paragraph?A.advantage B.weakness C.appearance D.disadvantage15.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A.How to hire bikes on Gold Coast.B.What kinds of bikes there are in stores.C.What bikes are the most popular.D.Who can hire bikes on Gold Coast.二、七选五Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 16 According to recent studies,the answer is a big YES,if the air quality in your camping area is good.17 If the air you’re breathing is clean-which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen.If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles (肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing (治愈). 18 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likelyto recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.20 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D.To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D.A.Being in nature refreshes us.B.But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?C.Fresh air cleans our lungs.D.So what are you waiting for?E.Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.F.All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.G.Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.三、完形填空Music can make us happy, peaceful or sad.

His experiment wasn’t working and he desperately needed help. I was then a fift h year PhD student, and I took pride in being the senior member of the lab, whom everyone looked up to.But that also meant I was the one everyone turned to for help - which ate away hours, days, and sometimes weeks that I could have spent on my own research.There were many reasons I had a hard time saying no to such pleas(恳求). I was new to the United States for graduate school. I found it difficult to make new friends and discover activities I enjoyed. So I spent a huge chunk of my time in the lab, with my lab-mates serving as my primary source of social connection. I feared that if I brushed them off, I’d lose their favor.But the extra responsibilities came at a cost. I had to work extra hours to catch up with my own work, and I often made sacrifices to my personal life.It wasn’t until my wife gave birth to our first child that I realized how thin I had stretched myself, and how misguided my priorities were. While she lay in a hospital bed in the early stages of labor, I sat nearby hunched(伏首前倾的)over my laptop finishing up a work report hours later, after hearing my daughter’s first cry and watching her tiny fingers grab tightly onto mine, it dawned on me: I should have been fully present during my daughter’s birth. I was clearly spending too much time working if my job had intruded(侵入)into one of the most precious moments of my life.From then on, I decided to spend more time with my family by paring down my work tasks and carefully considering each request for help. I still enjoyed collaborating with others, but I prioritized mutually beneficial tasks or those my manager asked me to take on, rather than accepting everything that came my way.I noticed many benefits: no longer working overtime, more family time, and improved work performance. I was also pl eased to discover that “Sorry, I’d love to help but I have a deadline coming up” is an acceptable response to a request for assistance.It’s hard to say “no” to those you work with. But I’ve learned that sometimes that’s the best course of action to avoid an excessive workload and lead a freer and happier life.4. Why did the author find it difficult to refuse the requests of his lab-mates?A.He was afraid to be left out by them. B.He wanted to earn their respect.C.He was the senior member of the lab. D.He had once received help from them.5. What did the author realize after his daughter’s birth?A.He was guilty for his absence when she was born.B.His wife had sacrificed a lot for the family.C.He should have balanced work and life better.D.He should work harder due to the increased responsibilities.6. What did the author decide to do after his daughter’s birth?A.To put his work tasks aside.B.To cut his work tasks down.C.To stop his work tasks.D.To get familiar with his work tasks.7. What is the text mainly about?A.Enjoying family life. B.Giving priority to family.C.Giving and taking. D.Learning to say “no”.Not only is second-hand shopping good for the planet and your wallet, but new research finds that the more conscious (关注的) of style you are, the more likely you are to shop for second-hand clothes.It is often assumed that those who shop for second-hand clothes do so to save money or reduce their impact on the environment. In fact, according to the research, style-consciousness is a bigger predictor of second-hand shopping than frugality or eco-consciousness.Style-consciousness is very different from fashion-consciousness. Fashion is all about the “new” , and is constantly evolving. Style, on the other hand, is about expressing long-term individual identity.Fashion shoppers are used to a continuous supply of new trends and fast fashion products. Fast fashion works quickly to replicate (复制) an ever-moving stream of fashion trends, generating large volumes of low-quality clothes. The impact of fast fashion on the environment is significant and well-documented. Globally ,the fast fashion industry creates 92 million tons of waste per year. Less than 15 percent of clothes are recycled or reused.A style-conscious person expresses themselves through their clothes. These shoppers want second-hand clothes that show their personal style and values. They look for authentic and original pieces and avoid mainstream trends and fast fashion. They buy clothes that are timeless, well-made and all ow them to express their individual identity.Going against the fast fashion trend, growing numbers of people are shopping for second-hand clothing. And the number of second-hand stores is also increasing. The research suggests much of this growth is due to shoppers considering themselves to be style-conscious.We hope with increasing numbers of second-hand stores, markets and online platforms selling a range of quality, pre-loved clothes at different price points for different budgets — coupled with the growing acceptance of second-hand shopping — shoppers will consider buying second-hand more often. Not only are you helping the planet, you are also likely to be doing it with style.8. What does the underlined word “frugality” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Buying expensive items. B.Not recycling used clothes.C.Being environmentally aware. D.Not spending much money.9. How are fashion-conscious shoppers different from style-conscious shoppers?A.They keep up with current trends.B.They take a greater interest in clothes.C.They prefer to buy low-quality clothes.D.They are more conscious of the environment.10. Why do style-conscious shoppers want to wear second-hand clothes?A.To understand themselves better.B.To make statements about themselves.C.To express their concerns about the planet.D.To prove the value of second-hand clothes.11. What might be a suitable title for the text?A.The More Stylish, the Better. B.Helping the Planet with Style.C.Shopping Second Hand Matters. D.How Fast Fashion Affects the Planet. Natural selection is the process by which one type of animal within a species develops well becauseof certain characteristics that make it more likely to live than others in its group. The history of the peppered moth (桦尺蛾) is an example of the natural selection process.In nineteenth-century England, certain types of peppered moths were able to better blend (融合) into their surroundings. During that time period, great changes were happening in Great Britain. The Industrial Revolution was part of this change, and with it came air pollution. Natural selection usually takes hundreds or even thousands of years to occur. For the peppered moth, this process occurred relatively quickly .At the beginning of the Industrial Age, most peppered moths in England were light-coloured and covered with black markings, although a few moths had dark-coloured wings. Because the light-coloured moths blended into the light-coloured bar k on the trees, they could not be easily seen by birds that would eat them. As the air grew more polluted, however, tree trunks (树干) became covered with soot (煤烟) and became darker. The light-coloured moths became easy for birds to see against the dark tree trunks. Since the dark-coloured moths now had the advantage, their numbers grew. Within 50 years, the peppered moth went from being mostly light-coloured to being mostly dark-coloured.In the twentieth century, the air cleared up, and the peppered moth population changed again. As tree trunks lightened due to less soot in the air, light-coloured moths once again had an advantage. Their numbers increased as soot levels declined. Depending on their environment, the colouration of the moths helped them to be “naturally selected” to survive.12. What was unusual about the pe ppered moth’s natural selection process?A.Its uncertainty. B.Its complexity.C.Its contributing factors. D.Its length of time.13. What can we learn from paragraph 3?A.Both kinds of moths preferred dark-coloured trunks.B.Light-coloured moths were more sensitive to pollution.C.Different kinds of moths preferred different air conditions.D.Dark-coloured moths were originally easier to see on trees.14. What would most likely happen if soot darkened England’s trees again?A.New species of moths would appear.B.Light-coloured moths would die out.C.Dark-coloured moths would rise in number again.D.Moths would be less dependent on their surroundings.15. What does the author want to illustrate with the example of moths?A.Nothing is permanent. B.It is the fittest that survives.C.Keep up with the times. D.Environmental protection is essential. Going to concerts and live performances is a lot of fun. As a teen, you’ll want to prepare for the event far in advance in order to ensure that your concert experience is enjoyable.Check to make sure that the concert venue (场所) is for all ages.Some venues, particularly those that serve alcohol, will only allow entry for guests who are over 21 years old. 16 If you buy a ticket and get turned away at the door, you likely will not get your money back.Ask your parents for permission.17 Have a conversation with your parents to figure out how you will travel to and from the concert, and talk about ground rules for staying safe at the event.Find a friend to go with.For your safety, it’s best not to attend concerts alone. 18 If you’re having trouble finding company, consider posting on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram to see if other people in your social network are interested.Buy tickets.If the concert is for a popular band, figure out exactly when the tickets go on sale. 19 sells tickets for bigger shows, but if you’re going to a smaller show, look online at the venue’s website for information on how to buy tickets.Research venue policies and regulations.Find the venue’s web page to get a sense of what to expect, and to avoid any problem on the day of the concert. You should know how early the doors will open. 20During my last stay in France, I got used to biking down a quiet road. Round a corner, I _______ a little house. In its yard, there was an elderly woman. I waved at her as I went by, and she must have thought I was some _________ tourist, because she didn’t wave back.The _________ thing happened the second day.

AWild Times In The Lone Star StateWhether you are enjoying the atmosphere in old-time towns, hiking into untouched wilderness or preparing for horseback adventures, the plains, grasslands and valleys of Texas make for an astonishing journey. This is a land rich in natural wonders—read on to discover how you could absorb yourself in a little authentic western culture.Hike A Natural WonderLocated in the Texas, Palo Duro is the second largest canyon(峡谷) in North America, dropping more than 240 metres. The highlight of along walk in this rough but beautiful region is to climb to the Lighthouse, a sandstone rock structure. From here, you will be amazed at the view across miles of dramatic Texas wilderness.Enjoy An Enchanted DuskShaped like a large, pink loaf of bread, the Enchanted Rock stands 130m highat the top. Hike up to its summit before sunset to take in the view across the uneven land below-and listen carefully: as night falls, you might just hear the rock start to make a screeching noise, just as the old legends insist it does at dusk.Meet The Real CowboysFort Worth, as Texans will tell you, is known as Cowtown. Every morning and afternoon, a herd of longhorns moves along Exchange Avenue in the world’s only daily cattle drive. The cows are heading to the stockyards. This energetic district is full of exciting bars and restaurants set among grand early 20th-century buildings.Explore The DepthsPreviously only accessible to experienced explorers, a section of the Natural Bridge Caverns—a huge cave system near San Antonio—has now been opened to all comers. It includes a new viewing area overlooking a passage called the Box Canyon, which provides a natural theatre for a sound and light show.21. What is Texas abundant in?A. Natural attractions.B. Old legends.C. Grand buildings.D. Ancient towns.22. Which place is recommended to enjoy the sunset scenery?A. Palo Duro.B. The Enchanted Rock.C. Fort Worth.D. The Natural Bridge Caverns.23. What can be concluded about Texas from the text?A. The Box Canyon is a theatre for performers to put on shows.B. In Fort Worth, cowboys drive cattle to the bars and restaurants every day.C. Tourists can overlook the Texas wilderness in the Natural Bridge Caverns.D. Climbing to the Lighthouse is the most attractive part of the hike in Palo Duro.BWhen I was in senior high school, I was scared of writing application letters. One of my biggest fears was the fear of rejection. Keeping myself in a safe space and doing things that I know I can perform well was my favorite pastime. But I knew I had to make a change, so I tried to apply for the college myself.When I received the first reply letter, I was taking a class then. My heart was beating wildly while I waited for the school internet to connect faster. When I saw the letter starting with “Thank you for your application. After a careful review...”, I felt my face growing hotter. Although it was a college I was not thinking of going to even if I did get in, I was heart-broken.This fear is applicable anywhere else: the fear of having your projects or ideas rejected or even the fear of being rejected from your friend group, to name but a few. I cannot tell you how many times I passed up the opportunity because I always thought there were better applicants out there, and for this reason, I missed out on so many opportunities to grow.Even nowadays, when I get a rejection letter from a scholarship application, I have the same immediate reaction, no matter how many rejections I’ve gone through. But the aftermath(创伤) does get easier Every time I am rejected, I am able to bounce back and hand in another application more quickly. Along the journey of rejections, I realize that I am not incompetent, but that everyone else maybe more capable. And that is okay.This fear will never truly go away. I’m still terrified to write and publish my articles. But it is thrilling to know that I write what I want to say, explore my mind and learn more about myself. Uncertainty is scary, but without experiencing the scariness, we would never grow, would we?24. What can we know about the author’s applying for the college?A. He knew he could perform it well.B. He stepped out of his comfort zone.C. He was unwilling to make a change.D. He couldn’t write application letters25. What caused the author to give up so many chances to grow?A. His discontent at the chances.B. His inner uncertainty about himself.C. His poor ability to take up the task.D. His previous experiences of being rejected.26. How does the author respond to being rejected nowadays?A. He struggles with self-doubt.B. He doesn’t feel scared any longer.C. He makes faster adjustments.D. He feels disappointed and desperate.27. Which can be the best title for the text?A. Relieve yourself of fear.B. Brave the fear of rejection.C. Reject saying no to yourself.D. Seize the opportunity to grow.CFor 32 years, Brenda Richardson has provided nutrition(营养) services to a diverse group of people aged 50 and older. Her journey began in college when she took a nutrition course that lit up her passion to become a registered nutritionist.After earning an undergraduate degree in dietetics(膳食营养学) and institution administration, Richardson was selected to practice at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, ter, she worked at several military emergency facilities and then became the hospital chief of clinical dietetics. She also left active duty to work as a food buyer and nutrition educator for schools. “I am excited to see the real impact that food, nutrition and dining can have on the prevention and management of malnutrition and the quality of life for each kid.” she recalled.In 1987, Richardson was offered a role serving a different population in long-term care. She was not only a consultant for independent living, assisted living and nursing facilities, but a so worked with food producers and distributors to develop dietary supplement products for seniors. Additionally, she volunteered with some organizations, where she provided education and training for their members to serve the elderly. “While I enjoy working in emergency care and schools, I prefer working with my colleagues.to prove the value of nutrition for healthy aging,” she said. “It is so rewarding to see improvements in person-centered care, the prevention and-management of malnutrition and other diseases, and the positive impact nutrition on individuals’ daily lives.”In 2019, after being nominated by the HealthCare Community Dietetics Practice Group and Indiana Academy of Nutrition, Richardson received the Lenna Frances Cooper Memorial Lecture Award. “This is a great honor that represents Cooper’s heritage and leadership in the field of nutrition and dietetics,” she said. “Her heritage has enabled me to improve my life through evidence-based nutrition. I am honored and humble.”28. What motivated Richardson to be a registered dietitian at first?A. Her duty for schools.B. Her journey to a college.C. Her service for seniors.D. Her attendance in a nutrition course.29. What is Richardson’s special contribution as a dietitian?A. She served as a nutrition consultant for schools.B. She became director of clinical nutrition at the hospital.C. She volunteered with her fellows to prevent diseases for each kid.D. She devoted herself to serving the aging population through food and nutrition.30. What does the underlined word “nominated” mean in the last paragraph?A. Appointed.B. Named.C. Proposed.D. Distributed.31. Where is this article probably taken from?A. A health magazine.B. A senior service website.C. A nutrition cookbook.D. An education newspaper.DIf you’ve ever cooked a complex meal with someone, you know the level of cooperation required. American researchers recently showed that in a virtual kitchen, artificial intelligence (AI) learned how to cooperate with ahuman just by watching humans work together.There are some ways researchers have already trained AI to work with people. Many approaches involve reinforcement learning, where an AI interacts with an environment online-which can include other AIs or humans—and is rewarded for making decisions that lead to desired outcomes. Google Deep Mind’s program Alpha Go, for example, learned the board game Go using reinforcement learning.But starting training an AI from zero to interact with people through complete trial and error can waste a lot of time and can be risky. Another choice is to train one AI to model human behavior, and then use that as a tireless human replacement for another AI to learn to interact with. Researchers have used this method in a simple game. But repeating human behavior in more complex settings can be difficult.Thus in the study, researchers used offline reinforcement learning—a method for developing strategies by analyzing recorded behavior rather than through real-time interaction. Previously, offline reinforcement learning had been used mostly to help virtual robots move or to help AIs solve mazes (迷宫), but here it was applied to the tricky problem of working with humans. Instead of learning by interacting with people, this A I learned by watching human interactions.“The research work introduces away for AI to learn to team up with humans, without even practicing with us. It could help improve human-AI interactions.” says Nikolaidis, director of a lab.In the future, humans will increasingly work with AI, both online and in the physical world. Sometimes we’ll want an AI to silently guide our choices and strategies, like a good teammate who knows our weaknesses. “It solves an important problem how AI can learn to work with people,” says Nikolaidis.32. What is the function of reinforcement learning in the passage?A. It’s how AI learned to work with peopleB. It’s how researchers helped AI learn cooking.C. It’s how Google Deep Mind developed AlphaGo.D. It’s how AI got rewards for making correct choices.33. What is the advantage of offline reinforcement learning?A. It relies on real-time interaction.B. It helps AI learn by interacting with people.C. It takes less time and has less danger.D. It is realized through mistakes and corrections.34. What is AI expected to do in the future?A. To cook a complex meal on its own.B. To point out our weaknesses directly.C. To offer voiceless guidance sometimes.D. To solve difficult problems for humans.35. What is the text mainly about?A. AI learns cooperation by practising.B.AI learns cooking from humans.C. AI learns cooking without humans’ help.D.AI learns teamwork by watching humans.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。

I hadn’t considered it until a girl came up to me and said, “You look like a good runner. Would you like to join the track team?” She thought I would make a good runne r because she saw my legs and arms were built, but I was just naturally slim.I was excited and surprised, “I don’t know. What do I have to do?”“It is a lot of hard work and devotion. It’s not easy.”She was right. My team had practice every day from 3:30 to 6 except for Fridays. When we didn’t have practice, I’d run on my own on the boardwalk. I got faster and focused. Track helped me get away from troubles. Arguments with my mom, problems with schoolwork, and dramas with the kids at school. I felt calm every time I ran.I got to the Armory at 7. My team was already there. We gave each other hugs and high fives. When the officials called for the relay race, I went out to the starting line. Then the gun went off. As I pounded the track, I was focusing so much on myself. I started running away from my problems. I couldn’t see anyone or anything but the finish line. Everything else was just a blur. Ifought to the finish line. I wasn’t only fighting against the other teams; I was also fighting to win my battle against my stress.I could feel the wind blowing against my skin. I felt like I was flying. My stress disappeared.

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8.What is the purpose of the public holiday?A.To increase economic income. B.To encourage people to plant trees.C.To allow people to get more rest. D.To remind people to get close to nature. 9.Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3?A.Increase. B.Figure. C.Record. D.Stop.10.What does Soipan Tuya want to say by referring to the day as “a ‘hummingbird’ contribution day”?A.We should get on well with birds. B.No contribution is too small to leave animpact.C.Each animal is important to nature. D.It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11.What is the best title for the text?A.Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB.Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC.Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD.Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12.What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A.To introduce a phenomenon. B.To bring in the topic.C.To ask an interesting question. D.To provide background information. 13.How did the researchers conduct the study?A.By analyzing previous studies. B.By observing the behavior of birds.C.By gathering feelings of participants. D.By studying people’s effect on birds. 14.What does Hammoud think of the new study?A.Pioneering. B.Interesting. C.Conventional. D.Practical. 15.What is the main idea of the text?A.Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B.Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C.Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D.Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Disappointed with the colors of traditional Russian art, he loved to paint with strong blues, reds and yellows.So in 1911, he moved to Paris, France, where artists from around the world were creating novel art forms and he acquired fresh ways of painting eagerly. He stayed true to his childhood memories. While others chose modern subjects, he painted scenes of fantasy based on an older, farmer-like way of life. Blue dogs, yellow skies and red trees were all creations of his imagination.Chagall went through two world wars and personal sufferings. In 1941, because his family were Jewish, the Chagalls had to leave France to escape the Nazis during World War Ⅱ. In 1944 came another blow. Chagall’s beloved wife Bella died of an illness. Despi te the hardships, his passion for painting never faded. In the 1950s, he returned to France and continued to make his dreamlike paintings.One day, during a walk in a village, he discovered a 700-year-old church (教堂), where he saw a stained-glass (彩色玻璃) window that contained a green horse. It looked as if Chagall might have created it himself. Here was a sure sign, he thought, that he should create his own stained-glass windows.Then Chagall devoted all his energy and time to the work. As we know, many stained-glass windows are made of flat colors, but Chagall used various techniques to create the effects he wanted. He made flexible use of bright colors, putting light into the works. He painted images on glass, then had them fired to high temperatures, making the lines and colors part of the glass.Chagall created the stained-glass windows for churches and other buildings around the world until his death in 1985. He gave them as gifts to the world and often refused payment. Today, people are still amazed at how his stained-glass creations shine and change with the sun.4.Why did Chagall choose to go to Paris?A. To learn new painting skills.B. To publicize his new ideas about art.C. To experience the colorful local life.D. To participate in modern art exhibitions. 5.What led Chagall to design stained-glass windows?A. Desire to let in more sunlight.B. Intention to improve the quality of glass.C. Encouragement from some famous artists.D. Inspiration from an ancient church window.6.What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about?A. Chagall’s working attitude.B. The images Chagall created.C. Chagall’s artistic experiences.D. The features of Chagall’s works. 7.Which of the following can best describe Chagall as an artist?A. Imaginative and honest.B. Generous and easy-going.C. Creative and strong-willed.D. Energetic and traditional.Sharks are among the best swimmers on the planet, but a new research suggests that even they sometimes “hold their breath” while diving deep underwater. The reason is that sharks are cold-blooded and their body temperature matches the waters they swim in. To do deepRoyer, a leading researcher at the University of Hawaii, set out to study the diving habits of hammerheads sharks. They’re known for swimming in warmer coastal waters, but earlier studies showed they can also dive to over 800 meters below the surface. At those cold depths, the water temperature falls to as low as 5℃.For these sharks, the fall in temperature is a matter of life and death. Because a shark can’t produce its own body heat, it begins to freeze the deeper it goes. Its muscles, eyes and brain become sluggish (迟钝). If it gets too cold, it can’t swim. And if it stops swi mming, water doesn’t go across its gills. It can’t breathe and will eventually drown (溺亡).How is it that hammerheads are able to go down into these deep depths and survive? To find out, Royer and his colleagues caught the fish and attached an electronic sensor to each shark. The sensor would release itself from the shark’s body after several weeks. The data they found amazed them: The sharks dived, spent just a few minutes at depths and then they shot towards the surface. They closed their gills and kept water out of their gills so that their body wouldn’t cool down.“Unlike animals with lungs, the sharks don’t return to the surface to breathe. Instead, they simply go to a depth where it’s warm enough for them to feel comfortable and reopen their gills. Hammerheads are probably not the only species doing so. Our work is another example of how new electronic sensors help to explain the extraordinary ability of these animals across 400 million years of changing ocean environments,” Royer said.8.What does the new research focus on concerning the sharks?A. Their hunting habits.B. Their basic types.C. Their special behaviors.D. Their body structures.9.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Keeping body heat.B. Holding their breath.C. Swimming on the surface.D. Diving deep in the sea.10.What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about hammerheads sharks?A. How their gills work in the sea.B. How the temperature drop affects them.C. Why they can survive the terrible environment.D. Why they can protect themselves from the cold.11.What can we know from Royer’s words?A. Hammerheads depend on their lungs to breathe.B. The diving strategy may not be unique to hammerheads.C. It’s hard for hammerheads to adapt to the cold conditions.D. It’s common for hammerheads to stay long at great depths.Scientists have created a new tool that can turn people’s thoughts into words. It works by using an Artificial Intelligence (AI) program to translate brain activity into words. The scientists say the program could help people who cannot speak because of damage to the brain.Alexander Huth, a team leader of the scientists, says, “We’re engaged in the study and are looking forward to the benefits the study can bring to people.”The study involves two main parts. The first is a scanner (扫描仪) that allows the scientists to record brain activity. The second is an AI system that the researchers train to turn videos of brain activity into words.To record brain activity without surgery (外科手术), Alexander and his team used a big machine called FMRI, which uses strong radio waves to create pictures showing which parts of the brain are active. FMRI can record the activity of the brain as it happens. To translate these recordings into words, they used an AI tool ca lled “GPT-1”. It guesses which word is most likely to come next, based on the facts and details that came before.The researchers first trained GPT-1 on lots of stories people had told about their lives. Next, they trained it to make connections between brain scans and spoken words. Then a test was done on three human volunteers to see whether the AI tool really worked. Each person spent sixteen hours in FMRI listening to stories. The people imagined the stories as they heard them, and FMRI recorded their brain activity. GPT-1 then used these recordings ofbrain activity to make connections between the words and ideas in the stories and the brain activity of the listeners.Alexander found the words GPT-1 guessed were very similar to the words in the storyth at the people were listening to. Although the words weren’t exactly the same, they often carried the same meaning.Alexander says that GPT-I is the first AI program to tum what people are thinking into words without brain surgery. The program isn’t somethi ng that can be easily used today, mainly because of the size and cost of FMRI.12.Who is the AI program targeted at?A. Health experts studying human brains.B. V olunteers performing medical service.C. Doctors in need of advanced equipment.D. Speech-disabled patients with brain injury.13.On what basis does GPT-1 translate brain activity into words?A. Previously gained information.B. Processed radio waves.C. Instructions from the scientists.D. Videos of brain surgery.14.For what purpose was the test carried out?A. To improve the function of FMRI.B. To confirm the weaknesses of the scanner.C. To check the effectiveness of the AI system.D. To measure the volunteers’ memory abilities.15.What can be the best title of the text?A. FMRI: A Powerful Device to Cure Brain Illness.B. FMRI Has Been Used and Won Public Recognition.C. Scientists Are Training AI to Read Human Thoughts.D. Alexander: An Expert Devoted to Developing AI Language.二、七选五16.Turn FOMO into JOMOIt’s weekend.

But sometimes the doctors write so badly that even chemists can’t understand what was written.One day a lady wrote to a doctor, inviting him to have dinner with her family. A few days later she got a reply, but he wrote so carelessly that she couldn’t read it. Her husband couldn’t read it either. “What shall I do?” she said to her husband. “How can we know if he is coming? It is not polite to call the doctor and tell him that I can’t read his writing.”Her husband thought hard and then he got a good idea. “Take it to the chemist, and he will be able to read it easily.” he said. “That’s great,” shouted the lady. So she went to the chemist’s shop. The chemist looked at the note carefully. “Wait a moment, please, ”he said politely, and went to the back of the shop. After ten minutes he returned with a large bottle hand. He gave the bottle to the lady and said,“Take one spoonful(一勺) before every meal.”( )41.

But experts believe that proper exposure(暴露) sunlight is good for us.For example, scientists think sunlight can help stop some diseases. They say that using sunscreen(防晒油) all the time makes the body short of vitamin D.Vitamin D in fact stops us from more than 25 Diseases and keeps bones and teeth healthy.However, around 60% of the population are short of vitamin D in their blood. One of the easiest ways to get it is to expose your skin to sunlight. Your body makes vitamin D from the sun faster than it takes in from food. What’s more, safely getting enough sunlight can make you look younger.However, not everybody likes sunlight. Some people should not be exposed to the sun without a strong sun protection. Experts advise that just 10 minutes of daily exposure to sunlight should be enough to give us vitamin D we need.( )46.What does the passage mainly tell us ?A.Don’t expose to the sun.B.Proper exposure to sunlight is good for our health.C.We should stay in the sun as long as possible.D.We can get vitamin D from food.( )47.What will happen if we don’t get enough sunlight for a long time?A.We will keep away from cancer.B.We will get many diseases.C.Our body will be short of vitamin D .D.We will have more vitamin D in our blood( )48.

If you think it is not a simple question, you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in bio-technology(生物技术). With the help of new medicine, the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents, murder and war. Today’s leading killers, such as heart disease, cancer, and aging itself, will become distant memorises.In discussion of technological changes, the internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells are the basic units of all living things, and until recently, scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond 120 years because the basic material of cells such as those of brain cells, would not last forever. But the upper limits will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100, medicine would have advanced to the point at which every 10 years or so, people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs. The medicine, made up the basic building materials of life, will build new brain cells, heart cells and so on – in much the sameway our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones.It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence, but many technical problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.( )51.Accoring to the passage, human death is now mainly caused by____.A. diseases and agingB. accidents and warC. accidents and agingD. heart disease and war( )52.

How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?A.About 100 years.B.More than 120.C.About 150 years.D.The passage doesn’t tell us.( )55. We can learn from the passage that____.A. human life won’t last over 120 years in the futureB. humans have to take medicine to build new skin cells nowC. much needs to be done before humans can have a longer lifeD. we have already solved the technical problems in building new cellsD.Choose the best one for each blank from A to G.Two of them are unnecessary.(从A到G中选出最佳选项,其中两个多余。
