Teachers always do their best within the classroom,but actual learning happens outside
those four walls during excursions,says Sherielyn Choi,an English teacher at the all-girls
secondary school,Canossa College,in Hong Kong.
"Excursions offer valuable hands-on learning opportunities and help students consolidate
(巩囿)what they learn at a theoretical level in class,”Choi says.“Additionally,every time
our students return from their excursions,I observe that they improve socially and
emotionally,with better communication and cooperation skills."
She speaks from fresh experience since her students recently took part in the educational
tour,"Macau Unlocked:A Journey of Discovery for Students 2023-2024",jointly organised
by the Macao Government Tourism Office (MGTO)and South China Morning Post.
The day trip has been specially designed for young people to help them learn about
Macao's rich history,vibrant(充满话力的)culture and sustainable practices..
Jaydee Lai,a Year 11 student at Canossa College,says,"I'd never been to Macao before
the tour,so as a newcomer,I felt that the tour did a good job of compacting (Macao's
400-year history into a day's event.I definitely learned a lot of fun facts,history and culture
of Macao.”
The tour was led by experienced MGTO tour guides,who are knowledgeable about
Macao's history and culture.Students taking part in the tour went to many historic sites that
are not often visited,including the Old City Walls,Na Tcha Temple,the Ruins of St.Paul's,
Macao Museum and Mount Fortress.
Lai says she was most fascinated to learn about some of Macao's sustainable practices.
"Besides the exhibits in the Macao Tea Culture House,we also learned how tea leaf residues
(are recycled to produce items such as cups and even furniture,"she says."We were
asked to smell these products,and they really do smell like tea!"
Choi feels it is great that her students had the opportunity to go on such an interesting
tour."They were talking excitedly about the activities they did and I think it really helped to
arouse their curiosity,"she says."Excursions are truly necessary for students to become well-
rounded individuals."

Over the past few years,libraries and archives (across the world have worked to
digitize their resources.Many have been investing heavily in expanding digital collections for
their records.A recent attack on the British Library (BL)has raised some questions about it.
On Oct.28,2023,the British Library's website was hacked,making it nonfunctional for
several weeks.The library didn't restore its home page until Dec.19,and it was a month
before its basic catalogue was searchable again.The bulk (of the library's online
resources will take much longer to restore,leaving students and scholars with research plans
across the world in trouble.
Digitization has been a powerful weapon in the battle against both intentional destruction
and the neglect of records.It helped scholars preserve the records while also allowing
understaffed libraries to preserve materials suffering from the degradation (of neglect.
It enables users to access records from all over the world,helping them overcome the barriers
of geography and the costs of travel.Digitization can help us hold ourselves to account for the
past.
The hack at the British Library,however,exposes the vulnerabilities(易受打击)of
digitization.It forces us to ask:what happens to our records if a cyberattack severs us from
our digital records?Since the BL has physical (if somewhat outdated)catalogues,restoring
access for scholars won't be a mission impossible.But it is still extremely expensive.So what
happens if digitized collections in other countries are attacked in the same way?As with the
BL,it could prevent our access to physical records by destroying digital catalogues and
reference material.That means even though the original physical records may still exist,we
may struggle to access or use them effectively.And repairing the damage could require
resources that the institutions in question might not have.
Digitization has been a transformative tool for scholars and a valuable shield against the
dangers that threaten paper-based historical records.But it's time to consider the
【高二英语第5页(共10页)】
yulnerabilities of digital repositories as well.Fires,theft,and physical neglect are no longer
the only major threats archives face:now we must also add ransomware(勒索软件)to the
list.
28.What have many libraries and archives focused on recently?
A.Building new facilities.
B.Researching their records.
C.Expanding digital collections.
D.Collecting historical materials.
29.What impact did the cyberattack against BL have on researchers?
A.Increased workloads.
B.Disturbed research plans.
C.Improved computer skills.
D.Reduced research funding.
30.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.The challenges faced by libraries and archives.
B.The benefits of digitization in preserving records.
C.The importance of physical record-keeping methods.
D.The long-term battle between degradation and restoration.
31.What does the author suggest about the future of digital collections?
A.They will face new threats different from physical ones.
B.They will become the main source of historical records.
C.They will reduce the need for physical archives.
D.They will require less funding for maintenance.
D
You see a woman on the street who looks familiar-but you can't remember how you
know her.Your brain cannot attach any previous experiences to this person.Hours later,you
suddenly recall the party at a friend's house where you met her,and you realize who she is.
In a new study in mice,researchers have discovered the place in the brain that is
responsible for both types of familiarity-vague (recognition and complete
recollection.Both,moreover,are represented by two distinct neural(神经系统的)codes.
The brain's signature for strangers turns out to be simpler than the one used for old
friends-which makes sense,says study co-author Steven Siegelbaum,given the vastly
different memory requirements for the two relationships."Where you were,what you were
doing,when you were doing it,who else was there-the memory of a familiar individual is a
much richer memory,"Siegelbaum says."If you're meeting a stranger,there's nothing to
recollect..”
The action occurs in a small sliver (of a brain region called the hippocampus,
known for its importance in forming memories.The sliver in question,known as CA2,seems
to specialize in a certain kind of memory used to recall relationships."The new work really
emphasizes the importance of this brain area to social processing,at least in mice,"says
Serena Dudek,a neuroscientist at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences,
who was not involved in the study.
CA2 is unlikely to act alone in this process because it connects to other brain regions that
also play roles in social learning,memory and behavior,Dudek says.But if the findings in
mice apply to humans,the work could help researchers uncover the roots of social difficulties
in people.
【高二英语第6页(共10页)】
From there,researchers might find ways to improve social memory."How many
different disorders of memory are there?"Siegelbaum says."Do they all involve the same type
of changes in neural processing,or are there more specific changes that are associated with
different forms of disease?"Having a better way to classify these changes may lead to more
targeted treatments,he adds.
32.What's the author's purpose in writing the first paragraph?
A.To introduce the topic.
B.To provide an example.
C.To describe a funny experience.
D.To complain about the bad memory.
33.Why is the brain's signature for strangers simpler than that for old friends?
A.Strangers leave a stronger impression.
B.The brain processes strangers differently.
C.Memories of old friends are easier to recollect.
D.There are different memory requirements to meet.
34.What does the study find about CA2?
A.It connects to other brain regions specialized in learning.
B.It is responsible for refreshing one's visual memories.
C.It is dedicated to the memory related to relationships.
D.It plays a role in regulating people's social behavior.
35.What does Siegelbaum suggest about the study?
A.It should include more species.
B.It provides conclusive answers.
C.It deserves more media attention.
D.It needs further research in future.

选项。
Biodiversity doesn't only revolve around species we consider rare and threatened but
around every living being.36 Here are some ways to protect biodiversity in your backyard
garden.
Pesticides are known to be poisonous to humans,animals,and the Earth.Thus,to
protect biodiversity in your yard,avoid using harmful and poisonous chemicals.37 These
organic fertilizers provide the necessary nutrients needed for plant growth without harming the
Earth.Prevention is the best way to discourage and deal with pests and diseases.Check your
plants regularly for unwanted visitors.
Another way to protect biodiversity in your garden is to create various habitats.To do
so,you can choose to plant fruit trees or berry bushes and add a bird feeder or other open
water sources.Perennials(多年生植物)can provide shelter for some species.38
Plants grow better in their native habitats,where climate and soil are perfect for their
development and growth.Plants also form symbiotic relationships with other native
plants that help them spread their seeds and discourage pests and diseases.39 Easier to
build such relationships,native plants require fewer resources to grow healthily compared to
non-native plants.
【高二英语第7页(共10页)】
40 Plants that aren't native to your area can be invasive(侵人性的),take over your
garden,and threaten the growth and survival of native plants.Their removal provides space
for native plants to develop.These plants are part of the local ecosystem in your garden and
provide habitat for other animals.
A.Instead,turn to natural pest control and natural fertilizers.
B.Insects aren't the only reason for the great damage to your plants.
C.Creating a flowering wall is a good way to beautify your backyard.
D.Relationships like this help native plants defend themselves naturally.
E.Balanced biodiversity in your yard positively impacts the environment.
F.Removing invasive and non-native plants leaves more space for other plants.
G.Even a dead tree can also serve as a habitat for insects,birds,and other animals.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Truman's parents were scientists,and he also wanted to be a scientist,so he was
determined to be at the top of science subject.With only one week and one assignment to go
before the summer holiday,Truman knew that to secure the top spot,his final report had to
shine.
The topic was beehives ()a subject that Mrs.Lawrence,his teacher,had
emphasized the need for a unique perspective to earn an A+.
Truman opened the door to find his four-year-old brother,Bryan,who sat on the floor in
the living room with paper tubes all over the floor.
Bryan called,“Truman,help me build a city!”
With a sigh,Truman replied,"I'm sorry,Bryan,but I have to write a report about
beehives."Stepping carefully between the scattered tubes,he went into his room,deep in
thought about his project.
Shortly after,Bryan appeared at the door,his eyes sparkling ()"Truman,I know
where there's a beehive,"he said.
Truman followed Bryan to the garage where they found a real beehive hidden among the
firewood.Bending down,he removed the beehive from the wood.As Truman examined it
closely,he was fascinated by the hexagonal(六边形的)structure of each cell.“Why the
hexagon?”he thought.
After dinner,Truman did the dishes.He glanced at the clock.If he didn't think of
something soon,his chance to get an A+would be slim.
As Truman turned around,he stepped on something.He hadn't seen Bryan play with
paper tubes behind him.
"Get your tubes out of here,Bryan!"Truman said angrily.
Bryan ran into the living room,crying.
Truman sighed and gathered the paper tubes.Suddenly,he found that they were
arranged with one in the middle and surrounded by six others.They reminded Truman of the
beehive.The center tube formed a hexagon,just like the cells of the hive.Truman tried to
use different numbers of tubes to surround the center tube,and then Truman got the new
angle.But what else did he need to accompany his report?Maybe a model beehive!
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Thinking about this,Truman rushed into the living room,his heart pounding.
Bryan smiled and began picking out his tubes.

Good morning,everyone.In today's presentation,I'd like to talk about the English
course at Littleton College.I attended it with other 39 students this summer.On the whole,
the course was excellent and it emphasized vocabulary learning.I learned a great deal from the
grammar lessons.We enjoyed the opportunity to communicate with students from all over the
world.There were only 10 students in each class,so we had plenty of chances to speak.
However,we were given a lot of homework every night.It meant that we had fewer
opportunities for informal contact with other students.In addition,the social programs the
course held were not so useful,which was a let-down.Finally,I would recommend that the
college provide well-equipped places for students and teachers.In this way,the course can be
given more effectively and students can do enough practice on computers.All in all,I believe
students can benefit greatly from the course as soon as it gets improved in the future.
