But it’s good to take a step away from everything else we’ve known and see something new! Library of Celsus, Türkiye The Library of Celsus was a public library built by Tiberius Julius Acquila in ancient Ephesus, now in modern-day Türkiye. It was built on the Mount Koressos and its construction began in 114 AD and ended in 117 AD. It is one of the best-preserved ancient buildings due to its Roman-time structures, which were built using marble, a type of hard, decorative stone. Meteora, Greece Meteora is a group of monasteries (修道院) in Greece located on top of tall rock pillars (柱子). Meteora contains 24 monasteries built on natural sandstone rock pillars between the 11th and 15th century AD. Meteora is one of Greece's most popular tourist destinations and has been a World Heritage Site since 1988. Tower of Hercules, Spain The Tower of Hercules is a Roman lighthouse built in 14 BC on the coast of Spain. You may be wondering how a place that was built much earlier than some of the other wonders of the world can still be considered a wonder today. Well, it was, once one of lighthouses in Europe. The tower has been rebuilt several times, but it still stands today. Toruń, Poland Toruń is one of the oldest cities in Poland and is the capital of the province of Kujawsko-Pomorskie. Toruń was founded by Teutonic Order in the mid-13th century as an important city on the trade route between Kraków and Gdańsk. The name “Toruń” comes from two German words — “tor” means gate or tower and “tun” means settlement; therefore, “Tower settlement”. 1. What makes Library of Celsus one of the best-preserved ancient buildings? A. Its special purpose. B. Its geographic position. C. Its preservation skills. D. Its construction materials. 2. Which one has the longest history? A. Library of Celsus. B. Meteora. C. Tower of Hercules. D. Toruń. 3. What is special about Toruá? A The origin of its name. B. The theory of its design. C. The time of its visit. D. The ways of its construction. B Karla Torres, a recent graduate of Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High School in Boyle Heights, designed and created an 18th-century-inspired dress with the support of her mom to enter the yearly “Stuck at Prom” scholarship contest, sponsored by a trademarked brand of duct tape (强力胶带). The Los Angeles teen was named a finalist last week with the grand prize: a $ 10,000 scholarship. In the beginning, Karla often spent hours online looking for clothing ideas or different styles. But it wasn't until a recent visit to the J. Paul Getty Museum — the only field trip she took in high school — that she found her inspiration from the 18th-century French paintings, featuring impressive, grand dresses. “We’ve never made a dress, much less out of duct tape,” Karla said. “We didn’t know how much duct tape we needed. We were just doing it by trial and error.” In the end, the college-bound teen and her mom spent at least 120 hours, over many days, working on the dress, and used l4 rolls of tape. “Tape is so tough and you can’t move it easily,” Karla said. “It was really challenging to make it all come together.” But the fashion-forward teenager overcame that challenge. Of more than 200 entries to the contest, Karla’s work was selected among the top five, judged for color, quality, originality, and the use of the brand tape. While it’s Karla’s name officially in the contest, this whole process was more of a collective effort by her family. “It means a lot to me. The $ 10,000 prize would go a long way as I plan to attend a California State University school in August. I wouldn’t want my parents to struggle trying to find a way to pay for it,” Karla said. “It would really help my parents.” 4. What inspired Karla to create the dress? A. Social media. B. The encouragement of her mom. C. Her visit to a museum. D. The impact of other competitors. 5. How did Karla’s work stand out among the other entries in the contest? A. It showed great skills and originality. B. It copied the style of modern paintings. C. It reflected a variety of fashionable ideas. D. It used expensive and high-quality materials. 6. Why is winning the contest important for Karla? A. It’s a recognition of her mom’s efforts. B It allows her to find a job in the fashion industry. C. It ensures her admission into the California college. D. It saves her parents from struggling to pay for her college. 7. Which of the following can best describe Karla? A. Creative and considerate. B. Humorous and hardworking. C. Responsible and brave. D. Kind and generous. C In a new study, researchers found a link between outdoor education and science grades. The findings indicate outdoor education could be a promising tool to help close gender (性别) gaps in science. “The outdoors is a space where teachers can find tangible ways to make science come alive,” says lead author Kathryn Stevenson, assistant professor of parks, recreation, and tourism management at North Carolina State University. “The natural environment is also a place that everybody has in common. In a way, it’s also a great context for employing teaching practices like hands-on, inquiry-based learning or group work. These practices can be good for all students, but they may be particularly good for reaching students who aren’t as well-served in classroom settings,” Stevenson says. The researchers studied the impact of an outdoor science education program called Muddy Sneakers on fifth graders’ science grades and knowledge of, and attitude about, science. Fifth graders from western North Carolina attended between 6 and 10 days of Muddy Sneakers. They had science lessons in nearby natural areas, including state parks and school grounds, Outdoor lessons followed the standard course of study for science through hands-on activities, hikes, nature exploration, and reflections. Researchers compared the performance of 237 students who learned about science in the classroom to 403 students who participated in the outdoor program. When researchers evaluated (评估) students’ science grades by gender, they saw that girls who participated in the outdoor science program maintained their science grades on average (平均), while girls’ average grades in the traditional science classes dropped. They also saw that participation in average grades in the traditional science classes dropped. They also saw that participation in the outdoor program helped girls learn more about how science works on average, but traditional classrooms did not. Boys in the outdoor and traditional class settings had fairly stable science grades on average and saw similar gains in knowledge of how science works. “Outdoor education seems to be one of those contexts that helps everyone learn, but it may be really, really helpful for some students in particular,” Stevenson says. 8. What does the underlined word “tangible” in paragraph l mean? A. Practical. B. Ineffective. C. Challenging. D. Unfair. 9. What is the purpose of the study? A. To improve fifth graders’ science grades. B. To provide part-time jobs for the students. C. To learn the effect of outdoor education on students. D To earn some money from different kinds of courses. 10. How do the researchers reach the findings? A. By listing numbers. B. By interviewing students. C. By explaining the causes. D. By making a comparison. 11. What is Stevenson’s attitude towards outdoor education? A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Unclear. D. Objective. D With mounting evidence that nanoplastic particles (纳米塑料微粒) are in our bodies, there is growing concern over their potential health impacts. Now a new study finds a relation between nanoplastics in the brain and a higher risk for Parkinson’s disease. Nanoplastics appear when the plastic packaging breaks down into small pieces. These particles can enter the blood and cross the blood-brain barrier, with European researchers reporting earlier this year that in animal experiments, it can take two hours or less for certain nanoplastics to reach the brain after being eaten. In humans, it’s long been thought that environmental factors play a role in Parkinson’s disease but specific causes are still unclear. The new study from the Duke University School of Medicine details how nanoplastics cause chemical changes in the brain that can, in turn, make Parkinson’s and related types of diseases more likely. That’s because the nanoplastics attract a protein (蛋白质) called alpha-synuclein, known to play a role in Parkinson’s and related disorders. In lab and animal studies, the plastic’s interaction with it leads to increases in the affected neurons in the brain. This interaction appears related to favorable conditions in which Parkinson’s can develop. The study authors note that Parkinson’s disease existed long before nanoplastics appeared in the environment, but they think that this “nanoplastics pollution in the human brain” may prove a new poison. Further, the Duke team led by Dr. Andrew West notes that Parkinson’s disease is among the fastest growing nervous diseases in the world, even as the amazing amount of plastic pollution builds across the planet. This is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. “The technology to monitor nanoplastics is still at the earliest possible stages and not ready yet to answer all the questions we have,” West said. “But hopefully efforts in this area will increase rapidly, as we see what these particles can do in our experiments.” 12. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A product advertisement. B. A science journal. C. An art magazine. D. A travel brochure. 13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The conditions leading to Parkinson’s. B. The cause of alpha-synuclein’s appearance. C. The principle of nanoplastics’ impact on Parkinson’s. D. The difference between Parkinson’s and related disorders. 14. What can be inferred from West’s words in the last paragraph? A. Plastic pollution will by no means be avoided. B. Nanoplastics are impossible to deal with at present. C. Fewer people will suffer from Parkinson’s in the future. D More efforts in the study of nanoplastics will be put in. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Nanoplastics can enter the brain through blood B. Nanoplastics may promote Parkinson’s disease C. Alpha-synuclein plays a role in Parkinson’s disease D. Nanoplastics will do serious harm to human health 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。 Grain Rain is the sixth solar term (节气) in the twenty-four solar terms, which is from an old Chinese saying — rain produces hundreds of grains. ____16____.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了世界上一些鲜为人知但值得一游的奇观。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Library of Celsus, Türkiye部分中“It is one of the best-preserved ancient buildings due to its Roman-time structures, which were built using marble, a type of hard, decorative stone.(它是保存最完好的古建筑之一，因为它的罗马时代结构是用大理石建造的，大理石是一种坚硬的装饰性石头)”可知，塞尔苏斯图书馆的建筑材料是大理石，所以它成为保存最完好的古建筑之一。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Library of Celsus, Türkiye部分中“It was built on the Mount Koressos and its construction began in 114 AD and ended in 117 AD.(它建于科雷索斯山上，始建于公元114年，始建于公元117年)”、Meteora, Greece部分中“Meteora contains 24 monasteries built on natural sandstone rock pillars between the 11th and 15th century AD.(迈泰奥拉有24座修道院，建于公元11世纪到15世纪之间的天然砂岩石柱上)”、Tower of Hercules, Spain部分中“The Tower of Hercules is a Roman lighthouse built in 14 BC on the coast of Spain.(赫拉克勒斯塔是一座建于公元前14年的罗马灯塔，位于西班牙海岸)”和Toruń, Poland部分中“Toruń was founded by Teutonic Order in the mid-13th century as an important city on the trade route between Kraków and Gdańsk.(13世纪中叶，条顿骑士团建立了托鲁瓦，作为Kraków和Gdańsk之间贸易路线上的重要城市)”可知，Tower of Hercules具有最长的历史，因为它建于公元前14年，远远早于其他三者。故选C项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Toruń, Poland部分中“The name “Toruń” comes from two German words — “tor” means gate or tower and “tun” means settlement; therefore, “Tower settlement”.(“Toruń”这个名字来自两个德语单词——“tor”是门或塔的意思，“tun”是定居点的意思；因此叫“塔之城”)”可知，Toruń的名称来源于两个德国单词，“tor”意味着门或塔，“tun”表示定居点或村落。因此，“Toruń”意为“塔之城”或“塔之定居点”，这反映了其名称的特殊性和与塔的关联。故选A项。 B Karla Torres, a recent graduate of Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet High School in Boyle Heights, designed and created an 18th-century-inspired dress with the support of her mom to enter the yearly “Stuck at Prom” scholarship contest, sponsored by a trademarked brand of duct tape (强力胶带).

Paul Getty Museum — the only field trip she took in high school — that she found her inspiration from the 18th-century French paintings, featuring impressive, grand dresses. “We’ve never made a dress, much less out of duct tape,” Karla said. “We didn’t know how much duct tape we needed. We were just doing it by trial and error.” In the end, the college-bound teen and her mom spent at least 120 hours, over many days, working on the dress, and used l4 rolls of tape. “Tape is so tough and you can’t move it easily,” Karla said. “It was really challenging to make it all come together.” But the fashion-forward teenager overcame that challenge. Of more than 200 entries to the contest, Karla’s work was selected among the top five, judged for color, quality, originality, and the use of the brand tape. While it’s Karla’s name officially in the contest this whole process was more of a collective effort by her family. “It means a lot to me. The $ 10,000 prize would go a long way as I plan to attend a California State University school in August. I wouldn’t want my parents to struggle trying to find a way to pay for it,” Karla said. “It would really help my parents.” 4. What inspired Karla to create the dress? A. Social media. B. The encouragement of her mom. C. Her visit to a museum. D. The impact of other competitors. 5. How did Karla’s work stand out among the other entries in the contest? A. It showed great skills and originality. B. It copied the style of modern paintings. C. It reflected a variety of fashionable ideas. D. It used expensive and high-quality materials. 6. Why is winning the contest important for Karla? A. It’s a recognition of her mom’s efforts. B. It allows her to find a job in the fashion industry. C. It ensures her admission into the California college. D. It saves her parents from struggling to pay for her college. 7. Which of the following can best describe Karla? A. Creative and considerate. B. Humorous and hardworking. C. Responsible and brave. D. Kind and generous. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7.

The findings indicate outdoor education could be a promising tool to help close gender (性别) gaps in science. “The outdoors is a space where teachers can find tangible ways to make science come alive,” says lead author Kathryn Stevenson, assistant professor of parks, recreation, and tourism management at North Carolina State University. “The natural environment is also a place that everybody has in common. In a way, it’s also a great context for employing teaching practices like hands-on, inquiry-based learning or group work. These practices can be good for all students, but they may be particularly good for reaching students who aren’t as well-served in classroom settings,” Stevenson says. The researchers studied the impact of an outdoor science education program called Muddy Sneakers on fifth graders’ science grades and knowledge of, and attitude about, science. Fifth graders from western North Carolina attended between 6 and 10 days of Muddy Sneakers. They had science lessons in nearby natural areas, including state parks and school grounds, Outdoor lessons followed the standard course of study for science through hands-on activities, hikes, nature exploration, and reflections. Researchers compared the performance of 237 students who learned about science in the classroom to 403 students who participated in the outdoor program. When researchers evaluated (评估) students’ science grades by gender, they saw that girls who participated in the outdoor science program maintained their science grades on average (平均), while girls’ average grades in the traditional science classes dropped. They also saw that participation in average grades in the traditional science classes dropped. They also saw that participation in the outdoor program helped girls learn more about how science works on average, but traditional classrooms did not. Boys in the outdoor and traditional class settings had fairly stable science grades on average and saw similar gains in knowledge of how science works. “Outdoor education seems to be one of those contexts that helps everyone learn but it may be really, really helpful for some students in particular,” Stevenson says. 8. What does the underlined word “tangible” in paragraph l mean? A. Practical. B. Ineffective. C. Challenging. D. Unfair. 9. What is the purpose of the study? A. To improve fifth graders’ science grades. B. To provide part-time jobs for the students. C. To learn the effect of outdoor education on students. D. To earn some money from different kinds of courses. 10. How do the researchers reach the findings? A. By listing numbers. B. By interviewing students. C. By explaining the causes. D. By making a comparison. 11. What is Stevenson’s attitude towards outdoor education? A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Unclear. D. Objective. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究人员发现户外教育与科学成绩之间存在联系，并指出户外教育可能是缩小科学领域性别差距的有力工具。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“The outdoors is a space where teachers can find tangible ways to make science come alive (在户外，教师可以找到tangible的方法，让科学变得生动起来)”中outdoors和make science come alive可推知，在户外空间中，教师能找到可感知的，实际有效的方法让科学变得生动开解起来。结合选项，practical与tangible意思最为接近，意为“实有效的”。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In a new study, researchers found a link between outdoor education and science grades. (在一项新的研究中，研究人员发现户外教育与科学成绩之间存在联系)”和第三段中“The researchers studied the impact of an outdoor science education program called Muddy Sneakers on fifth graders’ science grades and knowledge of, and attitude about, science.(研究人员研究了一个名为“泥泞运动鞋”的户外科学教育项目对五年级学生的科学成绩、科学知识和科学态度的影响)”可知，该研究是为了弄清楚户外教育对学生的影响。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Researchers compared the performance of 237 students who learned about science in the classroom to 403 students who participated in the outdoor program. When researchers evaluated (评估) students’ science grades by gender, they saw that girls who participated in the outdoor science program maintained their science grades on average (平均), while girls’ average grades in the traditional science classes dropped.(研究人员比较了237名在课堂上学习科学知识的学生和403名参加户外活动的学生的表现。当研究人员按性别评估学生的科学成绩时，他们发现参加户外科学课程的女孩的平均科学成绩保持不变，而参加传统科学课程的女孩的平均成绩下降了)”可推知，研究人员通过比较“在课堂上学习科学知识的学生”和“参加户外活动的学生”的成绩得出研究结论。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据Stevenson在第一段中的话“The outdoors is a space where teachers can find tangible ways to make science come alive (在户外，教师可以找到切实可行的方法，让科学变得生动起来)”和最后一段中的话“Outdoor education seems to be one of those contexts that helps everyone learn, but it may be really, really helpful for some students in particular,(户外教育似乎是帮助每个人学习的环境之一，但它可能对一些学生特别有帮助)”可推知，Stevenson认为户外教育可以让科学变得生动，可以帮助每个人学习。由此推知，他对户外教育持支持态度。故选B项。 D With mounting evidence that nanoplastic particles (纳米塑料微粒) are in our bodies, there is growing concern over their potential health impacts. Now a new study finds a relation between nanoplastics in the brain and a higher risk for Parkinson’s disease. Nanoplastics appear when the plastic packaging breaks down into small pieces. These particles can enter the blood and cross the blood-brain barrier, with European researchers reporting earlier this year that in animal experiments, it can take two hours or less for certain nanoplastics to reach the brain after being eaten. In humans, it’s long been thought that environmental factors play a role in Parkinson’s disease but specific causes are still unclear. The new study from the Duke University School of Medicine details how nanoplastics cause chemical changes in the brain that can, in turn, make Parkinson’s and related types of diseases more likely. That’s because the nanoplastics attract a protein (蛋白质) called alpha-synuclein, known to play a role in Parkinson’s and related disorders. In lab and animal studies, the plastic’s interaction with it leads to increases in the affected neurons in the brain. This interaction appears related to favorable conditions in which Parkinson’s can develop. The study authors note that Parkinson’s disease existed long before nanoplastics appeared in the environment, but they think that this “nanoplastics pollution in the human brain” may prove a new poison. Further, the Duke team led by Dr. Andrew West notes that Parkinson’s disease is among the fastest growing nervous diseases in the world, even as the amazing amount of plastic pollution builds across the planet. This is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. “The technology to monitor nanoplastics is still at the earliest possible stages and not ready yet to answer all the questions we have,” West said. “But hopefully efforts in this area will increase rapidly, as we see what these particles can do in our experiments.” 12. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A product advertisement. B. A science journal. C. An art magazine. D. A travel brochure. 13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The conditions leading to Parkinson’s. B. The cause of alpha-synuclein’s appearance. C. The principle of nanoplastics’ impact on Parkinson’s. D. The difference between Parkinson’s and related disorders. 14. What can be inferred from West’s words in the last paragraph? A. Plastic pollution will by no means be avoided. B. Nanoplastics are impossible to deal with at present. C. Fewer people will suffer from Parkinson’s in the future. D. More efforts in the study of nanoplastics will be put in. 15. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Nanoplastics can enter the brain through blood B. Nanoplastics may promote Parkinson’s disease C. Alpha-synuclein plays a role in Parkinson’s disease D. Nanoplastics will do serious harm to human health 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了纳米塑料颗粒与更高的帕金森病风险之间的关系。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Now a new study finds a relation between nanoplastics in the brain and a higher risk for Parkinson’s disease. (现在，一项新的研究发现了大脑中的纳米塑料与更高的帕金森病风险之间的关系。)”可知，本文介绍了纳米塑料颗粒与更高的帕金森病风险之间的关系，是一篇科普说明文，最有可能来自科学杂志。故选B。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“That’s because the nanoplastics attract a protein(蛋白质) called alpha-synuclein, known to play a role in Parkinson’s and related disorders. In lab and animal studies, the plastic’s interaction with it leads to increases in the affected neurons in the brain. This interaction appears related to favorable conditions in which Parkinson’s can develop. (这是因为纳米塑料会吸引一种名为α -突触核蛋白的蛋白质，这种蛋白质在帕金森病和相关疾病中发挥着作用。在实验室和动物研究中，塑料与它的相互作用导致大脑中受影响的神经元增加。这种相互作用似乎与可发展为帕金森病的有利条件有关。)”可知，本段描述了纳米塑料对帕金森病影响的原理。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““The technology to monitor nanoplastics is still at the earliest possible stages and not ready yet to answer all the questions we have,” West said. “But hopefully efforts in this area will increase rapidly, as we see what these particles can do in our experiments.” (韦斯特说：“监测纳米塑料的技术仍处于可能的早期阶段，还没有准备好回答我们所有的问题。但随着我们在实验中看到这些粒子的作用，希望这一领域的努力将迅速增加。”)”可推知，这项研究还在早期阶段，因此将在纳米塑料的研究上投入更多的努力。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Now a new study finds a relation between nanoplastics in the brain and a higher risk for Parkinson’s disease .(现在，一项新的研究发现了大脑中的纳米塑料与更高的帕金森病风险之间的关系。)”及全文内容可知，本文介绍了纳米塑料颗粒与更高的帕金森病风险之间的关系，B选项“纳米塑料可能促进帕金森病”最符合本文主旨，适合作为最佳标题。故选B。 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。 Grain Rain is the sixth solar term (节气) in the twenty-four solar terms, which is from an old Chinese saying — rain produces hundreds of grains. ____16____.
