B While I was working at a French school,I was often preparing my work in the staff room.Sometimes I would hear the school secretary talking.At first I thought she was talking to me,as there was no one else in the room except me,so I tried to respond to her.However,I soon realized that in fact,she was talking to herself.I noticed a lot of people do this in France.In the UK,people might think you're a bit strange if you talk to yourself at work,but there it seemed quite normal.It really did confuse me at times,becauseI was not sure whether people were talking to me or just talking to themselves. Another area of confusion involved the French language.In French,there are two ways to say"you": "tu"is the informal form while"vous"is the formal form.This is an aspect of French which,even now,I do not really understand.When I learnt French,I was taught to call everyone vous unless they were my family or friends.So I was surprised that virtually everyone in France used the informal tu all the time. School children used tu when they stayed with their teachers and all the staff called the head teacher tu But I continued to use vous because I didn't want people to think I was impolite. As you might know,school children in the UK traditionally wear school uniforms but in France pupils do not wear a uniform.It was a culture shock for me to see children wear Spiderman T-shirts and baggy(宽松的）blue jeans in the classroom, I found the differences puzzling at times,but I couldn't deny what a great opportunity it was to live and work in another country.The UK and France are only separated by a small channel of the sea,but there are many differences between the two countries. 24.In the staff room,the school secretary A.always chatted online B.interrupted the writer C.talked to herself often D.always made speeches 25.Why did the author always use"vous"when talking to others? A.She tried to be polite to others. B.She couldn't tell tu from vous at all. C.She didn't have close friends in France. D.She couldn't understand French very well. 26.How did the author feel seeing French kids wear Spiderman T-shirts at school? A.Pleased. B.Embarrassed. C.Frightened D.Surprised. 27. What made the author feel happy to live in France? A.Experiencing different cultures. B.Communicating in an informal way. C.Traveling along the channel of the sea. D.Having a chance to work with French teachers. ？而（些而 Recently scientists have announced some good ews:Several important tuna (species have stepped back from the edge of extinction. Two blue fin tna species,a yellow fin,and an albacore are no.longer seriously endangered or have moved off the leading intemational list of endangered species entirely. The unexpectedly fast recovery speaks to the success of efforts over the past decade to end overfishing.But tuna are not the only species scientists are thinking carefully at the 2021World Conservation Congress in Marseille,France,which is organized by the Interational Union for Conservation of Nature (TUCN).Researchers warn that many other sea species continued to be imperiled. For exame,more than a third of the word's sharks are still threatened with extinctiouevfshng habitat loss,and climate change. "think the good news is that sustainable(可持续的)fishing industryisossible",says Beth Polidoro,a biologist at Arizona State University."We can eat fish without reducing the population to the point where it is on the road to dying out or extinction."At the same time,she warns that the recovery should not encourage us to catch as many fish as we want."We need to keep doing what's working." Polidoro adds. The IUCN,which determines the world's most endangered species on its Red List of Threatened Species,also announced at the meeting that some animals are moving in the other direction,onto the Red List.Like the Komodo dragon,an lizard ()it is at particular risk from climate change. Of course,the work of protection is never over,and it will require close and continuous attention to make sure neither tuna nor Komodo dragons return to the edge of dying out.But for now,people can celebrate a few wins for the animal world. 28.What is the good news about tuna? A.They have been removed from the list of endangered species. B.The fishing of tuna has been put to an end completely. C.The population of some tuna species has recovered. D.The number of some tuna species increases slowly. 29.What does the underlined word"imperiled"in paragraph 3 mean? A.Dangerous. B.Sustainable. C.Disappointing D.Endangered. 30.Why does the writer mention'the Komodo dragon"in paragraph 5? A.To introduce a topic. B.To make a comparison. C.To explain an idea. D.To give an example. 31.What is the writer s attitude towards the recovery of the tuna species? A.Positive. B.Concerned. C.Critical. D.Doubtful. D The benefits of regular exercise are well documented but there's a new one to add to the ever-growing list.New researchers found that middle-aged women who were physically fit could be nearly 90 percent less likely to develop dementia (in later life and as they did,it came on ten years later than less sporty women. Lead researcher Dr.Helena Horder,of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden,said,These findings are excitingbecause it's possible that improving people's cardiovascular ()iessn middleaeouddelayoreven prevent them from developing dementia" For the study,omen with an averae age of5 tooka bicycle xeris esntilthey eretired out to measure their peak ()cardiovascular capacity.The average peak workload was measured at 103 watts. A total of 40 women met the standard for a high fitness level.or 120 watts or higher.A total of 92 英语试题第4页（共8页） women were in the medium fitness group;and 59 women were in the low fitness group,defined as a peak workload of 80 watts or less,or having their exercise tests stopped because of high blood pressure,chest pain or other cardiovascular problems. These women were then tested for dementia six times over the following forty years.During that time,44 of the women developed dementia.Five percent of the highly fit women developed dementia, compared to 25 percent of the women with medium fitness and 32 percent of the women with low fitness "However,this study does not show cause and effect between cardiovascular fitness and dementia,it only shows a connection.More research is needed to see if improved fitness could have a positive effect on the risk of dementia and also to look at when during a lifetime a high fitness level is most important." She also admitted that a relatively small number of women were studied,all of whom were form Sweden, so the results might not be applicable to other groups. 32.What is on the ever-growing list mentioned in the first paragraph? A.Positive effects of doing exercises. B.Exercises suitable for the middle-aged. C.Advantages of sporty woman over man. D.Experimental studies on certain diseases 33.Why did the researchers ask the woman to do bicycle exercise? A.To predict their maximum heart rate. B.To assess their cardiovascular capacity. C.To change their habits of working out D.To detect their potential health problems. 34.What do we know about Dr Horder's study? A.Some participants quit it halfway. B.Data collection was a long process. C.It aimed to find a cure for dementia. D.The results were far from satisfactory. 35.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.More Women Are Exercising to Prevent Dementia B.Middle-Aged Women Need to Do More Exercise. C.Fit Women Are Less Likely to Develop Dementia. D.Biking Improves Women's Cardiovascular Fitness. 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答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to gain happiness?Aristotle,a famous Greek philosopher ()believed that happiness is achieved through the development of certain virtues,stressing a balanced lifestyle.36 Balancing Personal Strengths and Relationships Aristotle combined virtues like modesty,honesty,and sociability into one principle:balance knowing yourself with getting along with others.Modesty()involves recognizing both your true strengths and weaknesses clearly.37.Honesty means being true in your expressions.Sociability stresses the necessity of making and keeping friends.
