C Arecent study in the jouralCren Biolgy found that people danced 12more when 國 very low frequency bass()was played.Scientists wanted to see what factors of music make us want to dance."We look at things like what kinds of rhythms make us really drawn 如 in and want to move more,"said Daniel Cameron,a neuroscientist and the lead author of the study. 的 Volunteers were led into a lab that was changed into an electronie dance music concert. with live music performed for them,who were equipped with headbands that had a motion 长 capture sensor.The lab had special speakers that could play a very low frequency bass, undetectable to the human ear.The set lasted about an hour.Researchers introduced the very low bass every 2.5 minutes and found that the concertgoers moved more when the speakers were 区 on-even though they couldn't hear it. 都 Cameron thinks that our vestibular(前庭的)system can help explain the reason.“Tt's the inner-ear structures that give us a sense of where our head is in space,"he says."That system is sensitive to low-frequency stimulation,especially if it's loud." 构 Some people hear music and can't help but move,whether there are low,silent bass 的 frequencies or not.So why do humans dance?"It's hard to test this,but there has been some workon why we may have evolved this way.We know that moving together in synchrony( )when we're making music together and dancing together leads to soeial bonding.We feel better about the people we're with,We feel more conected with them,"Cameron ay"o you imagine this has potential advantages for groups throughout the long history ofou species.” Evolution aside,Cameron finds value in knowing his study has uncovered just one of the ingredients for what makes us want to dance a little bit more. 28.What does Cameron's research focus on? A.The popularity of dancing among people. B.The evolutionary reasons why humans dance. C.The musical elements that encourage dancing. D.The little effect of low frequency bass on dancers. 【高二英语第5页（共10页）】 ·24-576B· 29.What cnwe ea about the research setup described in paragraph2? A.Low frequency bass was played regularly.

D.The human speakers performed for an entire hour. 30.Why might humans have evolved to dance according to Cameron? A.To inspire imagination. B.To promote communication. C.To create work opportunities. D.To stimulate the body's potential. 31.What can be the best title for the text? A.The Science of Dance B.The Benefit Behind Dancing C.The Role of Rhythms in Music D.The Evolution of the Musical System D In 2021,a wildfire bloomed in the Sonoran Desert in southwestern Arizona.By June 7, winds had blown the wildfire east-northeast into the Pinal Mountains,in the Tonto's southern reaches.The fire rose quickly,climbing over cliffs (and sweeping across vast jungles. When the fire hit the tops of mountains with pine forests,it consumed them as well. The Telegraph Fire,as it's now called,grew very intense,creating its own wind as its heat rose,pulling air in from the edges.On the fifth day,the fire neared the city of Globe.By then,it had already destroyed a large area of Globe,making it one of the most powerful wildfires in Arizona's history,spanning approximately 700 square kilometers of land.But the fire would not swallow Globe.Instead,on a ridge,the Telegraph Fire encountered a protective bulwark,remains of a previous great fire. According to ecologist Kit O'Connor,the Telegraph Fire shifted from a powerful fire. which was killing roughly 60%to 70%of the trees it encountered,to a slow-moving ground fire that only killed about 1%of the trees it came across."Ultimately,the fire stopped approximately a kilometer away from a residential area on the outskirts of Globe,"said Lata. a wildfire management expert.She notes that without the Pinal Fire,the Telegraph Fire would have likely spread into the town and that they would have no means to prevent it. The decision to allow the Pinal Fire to burn was guided by a new approach to wildfire management called potential operational delineations (PODs).PODs categorize the landscape into zones where fires can potentially be contained.These zones are determined before the fire season begins,using a combination of AI and local expertise.A PODs network can assist land managers in identifying opportunities to exploit wildfires that light under manageable conditions. The goal is that,if subsequent fires break out under extreme conditions,there will be fewer bushes avsilable to feed their great power. 【高二英语第6页（共10页）】 ·24-576B· 32.What does paragraph 1 mainly describe about the wildfire? A.Its extension. B.Its origin. C.Its duration. D.Its managemn. 33.What does the underlined word"bulwark"in paragraph 2 refer to? A.A water source. B.A defensive wall. C.A type of vegetation. D.A fire-fighting technique. 34.What is Lata's attitude to the Pinal Fire? A.Critical. B.Indifferent. C.Cautious. D.Supportive. 35.What is the main purpose of PODs in wildfire management? A.To predict wildfire occurrences B.To reduce fuel for future wildfires. C.To help land managers put out wildfires. D.To create landscapes against potential wildfires. 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 With busy schedules,we can often forget about ways to stay sustainable on campus. 36 So,here are some easy tips to be more eco-friendly on campus. 37 Whenever you head to stores or supermarkets,you will find that they sell reusable bags.But you are recommended to bring the ones you already own in your dorm, because it can help reduce the amount of bags accumulating in the corner of your dorm.
