To relax, they invented many games. Here are some of them. Chuiwan Chuiwan was very popular in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). “Chui” means “hit” and “wan” means “ball”. This sport was similar to golf. On a large field, the players were divided into two groups. Usually there were 2 to 10 people in each group. Everyone had three chances to hit the ball into holes with a stick. Only when the balls were hit into the hole 3 times, could the player win the point. Archery In Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-771BC), archery was an important part of education for gentlemen. At 15, they began learning archery. The most famous competition was Grand Archery. It was held by the emperor, the head of the country. The competitors greeted each other before shooting arrows and drank together after it. As one of the six Chinese arts, archery didn’t become popular until Yuan Dynasty. At that time, the emperors used archery to fight, and to make themselves fit. Cuju First recorded 2,000 years ago, cuju is known as the earliest form of football: The ball was made of hard leather on the outside and filled with feathers or rice bran inside. As a fun game, cuju was first used in the army to train soldiers. Its rules were similar to the rules of football. Each team usually had 12 or 16 players. No hands were allowed. Only feet and head could be used. The ball should be hit into the other team’s goal. 26. What sport was chuiwan similar to? A. B. C. D. 27. Which is not the reason for people to learn archery across history? A. To educate young people. B. To protect themselves from attack. C. To keep strong. D. To compete against emperors. 28. What can we know about cuju? A. The ball was hard outside and empty inside. B. It was played by 12 or 16 players. C. It was invented to relax soldiers. D. Players could use head and feet to hit the ball. （B） It was a week before I saw Captain Nemo again. Every morning, I noticed fresh air coming into the rooms and I knew that the Nautilus had come to the top. I would go out and see the sunrise. Then I received a note from Captain Nemo. He invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. Ned was excited because he thought there he could find a chance to run away. When I saw Captain Nemo the next day, I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island. “I thought you preferred the sea.” “I do,” replied the Captain. “But these forests are under the sea.” During breakfast, he explained, “I have made diving suits that used special air tanks before I sent you the note. These tanks would allow us to stay under the water for ten hours. Wonderful, isn’t it?” He said he had also made lights that worked in electric batteries. When Ned realized that we were not going onto land for our hunting trip, he decided not to come at all. Conseil and I put on our diving suits, and so did Captain Nemo and one of his men. We stepped into a room and closed the door. The room was filled with water, and another door opened. We went through it, and we were on the sea floor. It was an amazing experience. We were about ten metres under the water. The light from the sun reached us. Everything looked very colourful. We walked over the fine sand and enjoyed the colours of the shells, fish and seaweed. Conseil and I followed Captain Nemo and his man as they crossed a large grassy area. We were going deeper and deeper. As we were a hundred metres under the water, we could still see quite well. Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes. This was the forest. The “trees” there were giant seaweed, and all their branches were vertical (垂直的). We could not stop looking at them. Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest. Small bushes grew under the large seaweed trees. Three hours later, we lay down to rest. I was not hungry, but very sleepy. We all slept, and when we woke up, we explored further. (Adapted from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea) 29. According to paragraph 1-3, which is NOT true? A.

For a long time, they were thought to have died out. In 1989, they were discovered again in Xinjiang. They are considered to be a living fossil of amphibians. Population: The population of Xinjiang salamanders has risen from around 1,700 in 2015 to over 3,000 in 2018. Appearancе: It’s a “four-footed fish” around 20 centimeters long and much smaller than other giant salamanders, with an oval body, long tail and smooth skin. Home: The Xinjiang salamander is only found around Tianshan Mountain, Xinjiang, but in no other places in the world. Food: Because of the bad weather in Tianshan Mountain, the Xinjiang salamanders do not have many kinds of food to eat. They mainly feed on insects in water, such as caddisflies, betonies and stoneflies. Behaviour: Xinjiang salamanders have poor eyesight. They often get lost on land, especially on cloudy and rainy days. They are afraid of light, so they often live under stones or grass. They also produce eggs under stones. If cows and sheep on the farm pass by, they would accidentally step on them. Salamanders have no natural enemies except themselves: young salamanders are often eaten by adult salamanders! Protection: The weather in Tianshan often changes greatly, making it difficult for the Xinjiang salamanders to live there. Besides, with decreasing wetlands and increasing human activities, its population dropped quickly. To protect the amphibians from dying out, a large nature reserve was set up in Wenquan County in 1997. People have also tried to protect the grassland and wetland where they live, and have built a monitoring system to learn about their growth. In 2016, a scientific research and education center was put into operation. In 2022, 139 baby salamanders were born there. 33 What does the underlined sentence try to show about Xinjiang salamanders? A. They can live longer than dinosaurs. B. They are old, so they can become valuable fossils. C. They appeared in ancient times but have lived till now. D. They are thought to be the oldest living animals. 34. What can we know about Xinjiang salamanders from the passage? A. Their population grew fast from 2015 to 2018. B. They are almost as big as other giant salamanders. C. They can also be found outside Xinjiang. D. They have rich food choices. 35. Which helps Xinjiang salamanders keep safe? A. Living with farm animals. B. Lying under stones and grassland. C. Travelling on land in terrible weather. D. Keeping baby and adult salamanders together. 36. What’s the purpose of the passage? A To explain how Xinjiang salamanders become living fossils. B. To tell new discoveries about Xinjiang salamanders. C. To show general information about a special salamander. D. To encourage people to visit surprising salamanders in Xinjiang. （D） How are animals communicating with each other? In the past, we could only study this by watching animals carefully or teaching them human language. But now with the help of AI and machine learning, we may be able to understand their languages! All around the animal world, there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, talk with each other using infrasound—too low for humans to hear. Bats communicate with ultrasound—too high for humans to hear. However, by putting field recorders in trees, on mountaintops, and even on the backs of whales and birds, scientists can collect their sounds. After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meanings. For example, a team of Israeli scientists used AI to get the meanings of bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60% of them were fights and disagreements about four things: food, sleep positions, personal space, and unwanted advances. This is surprising as bats are thought to be quiet animals! The new technology can not only understand animal talks, but also communicate back to them. For example, scientists in Germany studied how bees used sounds and dances to speak. Then they put the bee language system into a robot bee, and hid it in a bee hive where bees live. The robot gave orders to the other bees, like “quiet down” or “stop”, and they would follow. Why is it important to understand animals’ words? It is the first step to give other kinds of creatures on Earth a chance to express themselves. The natural world is full of conversations. But we are only able to understand one of them. By using AI, we are better able to listen to them, especially those in faraway places like deep seas and mountain tops. Though AI has proved itself to be useful, we have to think about the problems it may bring. What problems would there be if one day we could use animal robots to “talk” to real animals? Will humans use the technology to control or hurt the animals? What can we do to stop these? We’d better think about these problems before we act. 37. How can AI and machine learning help people understand animals? a. By teaching human language to animals. b. By picking up sounds humans cannot hear. c. By working out the meaning of animals’ sounds. d. By teaching animals to understand robots’ words. e. By learning animal languages to talk with them. A. a, b, c B. a, c, d C. b, c, e D. c, d, e 38. What does the underlined word “This” refer to in paragraph 3? A. The group of Israeli scientists. B. The study on bats’ disagreements. C. The number of bats’ calls. D. The finding on bats’ calls. 39. Why is it meaningful to understand animals’ languages? A. It makes it possible for animals to be heard. B. It proves human’s ability to understand and control animals. C. It helps discover more animals in the faraway places. D. It allows humans to listen to animals more clearly. 40. What does the writer think of the technology? A. He is surprised at it. B. He is afraid of it. C. He is careful about it. D. He is satisfied with it. 第二节阅读填空（共5小题; 每小题1分, 满分5分） 阅读短文及文后A~E选项, 选出可以填入41~45各题空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A smile shows that a person is happy.

But smiles are more than just a way for people to show their happiness and joy. ___41___ First, it is easier to smile than to show unhappiness. In fact, it only takes 17 muscles (肌肉) to smile.

To relax, they invented many games. Here are some of them. Chuiwan Chuiwan was very popular in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). “Chui” means “hit” and “wan” means “ball”. This sport was similar to golf. On a large field, the players were divided into two groups. Usually there were 2 to 10 people in each group. Everyone had three chances to hit the ball into holes with a stick. Only when the balls were hit into the hole 3 times, could the player win the point. Archery In Western Zhou Dynasty (1046-771BC), archery was an important part of education for gentlemen. At 15, they began learning archery. The most famous competition was Grand Archery. It was held by the emperor, the head of the country. The competitors greeted each other before shooting arrows and drank together after it. As one of the six Chinese arts, archery didn’t become popular until Yuan Dynasty. At that time, the emperors used archery to fight, and to make themselves fit. Cuju First recorded 2,000 years ago, cuju is known as the earliest form of football: The ball was made of hard leather on the outside and filled with feathers or rice bran inside. As a fun game, cuju was first used in the army to train soldiers. Its rules were similar to the rules of football. Each team usually had 12 or 16 players. No hands were allowed. Only feet and head could be used. The ball should be hit into the other team’s goal. 26. What sport was chuiwan similar to? A B. C. D. 27. Which is not the reason for people to learn archery across history? A. To educate young people. B. To protect themselves from attack. C. To keep strong. D. To compete against emperors. 28.

Every morning, I noticed fresh air coming into the rooms and I knew that the Nautilus had come to the top. I would go out and see the sunrise. Then I received a note from Captain Nemo. He invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. Ned was excited because he thought there he could find a chance to run away. When I saw Captain Nemo the next day, I asked him why he was so interested in Crespo Island. “I thought you preferred the sea.” “I do,” replied the Captain. “But these forests are under the sea.” During breakfast, he explained, “I have made diving suits that used special air tanks before I sent you the note. These tanks would allow us to stay under the water for ten hours. Wonderful, isn’t it?” He said he had also made lights that worked in electric batteries. When Ned realized that we were not going onto land for our hunting trip, he decided not to come at all. Conseil and I put on our diving suits, and so did Captain Nemo and one of his men. We stepped into a room and closed the door. The room was filled with water, and another door opened. We went through it, and we were on the sea floor. It was an amazing experience. We were about ten metres under the water. The light from the sun reached us. Everything looked very colourful. We walked over the fine sand and enjoyed the colours of the shells, fish and seaweed. Conseil and I followed Captain Nemo and his man as they crossed a large grassy area. We were going deeper and deeper. As we were a hundred metres under the water, we could still see quite well. Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes. This was the forest. The “trees” there were giant seaweed, and all their branches were vertical (垂直的). We could not stop looking at them. Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest. Small bushes grew under the large seaweed trees. Three hours later, we lay down to rest. I was not hungry, but very sleepy. We all slept, and when we woke up, we explored further. (Adapted from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea) 29. According to paragraph 1-3, which is NOT true? A.

For a long time, they were thought to have died out. In 1989, they were discovered again in Xinjiang. They are considered to be a living fossil of amphibians. Population: The population of Xinjiang salamanders has risen from around 1,700 in 2015 to over 3,000 in 2018. Appearancе: It’s a “four-footed fish” around 20 centimeters long and much smaller than other giant salamanders, with an oval body, long tail and smooth skin. Home: The Xinjiang salamander is only found around Tianshan Mountain, Xinjiang, but in no other places in the world. Food: Because of the bad weather in Tianshan Mountain, the Xinjiang salamanders do not have many kinds of food to eat. They mainly feed on insects in water, such as caddisflies, betonies and stoneflies. Behaviour: Xinjiang salamanders have poor eyesight. They often get lost on land, especially on cloudy and rainy days. They are afraid of light, so they often live under stones or grass. They also produce eggs under stones. If cows and sheep on the farm pass by, they would accidentally step on them. Salamanders have no natural enemies except themselves: young salamanders are often eaten by adult salamanders! Protection: The weather in Tianshan often changes greatly, making it difficult for the Xinjiang salamanders to live there. Besides, with decreasing wetlands and increasing human activities, its population dropped quickly. To protect the amphibians from dying out, a large nature reserve was set up in Wenquan County in 1997. People have also tried to protect the grassland and wetland where they live, and have built a monitoring system to learn about their growth. In 2016, a scientific research and education center was put into operation. In 2022, 139 baby salamanders were born there. 33. What does the underlined sentence try to show about Xinjiang salamanders? A. They can live longer than dinosaurs. B. They are old, so they can become valuable fossils. C. They appeared in ancient times but have lived till now. D. They are thought to be the oldest living animals. 34. What can we know about Xinjiang salamanders from the passage? A. Their population grew fast from 2015 to 2018. B. They are almost as big as other giant salamanders. C. They can also be found outside Xinjiang. D. They have rich food choices. 35. Which helps Xinjiang salamanders keep safe? A. Living with farm animals. B. Lying under stones and grassland. C. Travelling on land in terrible weather. D. Keeping baby and adult salamanders together. 36. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To explain how Xinjiang salamanders become living fossils. B. To tell new discoveries about Xinjiang salamanders. C. To show general information about a special salamander. D. To encourage people to visit surprising salamanders in Xinjiang. 【答案】33. C 34. A 35. B 36. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是新疆蝾螈的数量、外表、栖息地、食物、行动和如何保护等信息。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“... the Xinjiang salamander is an amphibian that has lived for more than 300 million years.”和“They are considered to be a living fossil of amphibians.”可知，蝾螈存在有三亿年之久，可以称得上是活的化石了，即出现在远古又是活着的。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判读题。根据“The population of Xinjiang salamanders has risen from around 1,700 in 2015 to over 3,000 in 2018.”可知，新疆蝾螈的数量从2015年的约1700只增长到2018年的3000多只，此段时间增长迅速。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“They are afraid of light, so they often live under stones or grass. They also produce eggs under stones.”可知，他们因怕光而躲在石头下或草里，很少露面而不会被其它动物吃掉。故选B。 【36题详解】 主旨大意题。根据标题“The Xinjiang Salamanders”和通读全文可知，本文就是具体介绍一种特殊的蝾螈——新疆蝾螈。故选C。 （D） How are animals communicating with each other? In the past, we could only study this by watching animals carefully or teaching them human language. But now with the help of AI and machine learning, we may be able to understand their languages! All around the animal world, there are sounds that we can hardly pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, talk with each other using infrasound—too low for humans to hear. Bats communicate with ultrasound—too high for humans to hear. However, by putting field recorders in trees, on mountaintops, and even on the backs of whales and birds, scientists can collect their sounds. After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meanings. For example, a team of Israeli scientists used AI to get the meanings of bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60% of them were fights and disagreements about four things: food, sleep positions, personal space, and unwanted advances. This is surprising as bats are thought to be quiet animals! The new technology can not only understand animal talks, but also communicate back to them. For example, scientists in Germany studied how bees used sounds and dances to speak. Then they put the bee language system into a robot bee, and hid it in a bee hive where bees live. The robot gave orders to the other bees, like “quiet down” or “stop”, and they would follow. Why is it important to understand animals’ words? It is the first step to give other kinds of creatures on Earth a chance to express themselves. The natural world is full of conversations. But we are only able to understand one of them. By using AI, we are better able to listen to them, especially those in faraway places like deep seas and mountain tops. Though AI has proved itself to be useful, we have to think about the problems it may bring. What problems would there be if one day we could use animal robots to “talk” to real animals? Will humans use the technology to control or hurt the animals? What can we do to stop these? We’d better think about these problems before we act. 37. How can AI and machine learning help people understand animals? a. By teaching human language to animals. b. By picking up sounds humans cannot hear. c. By working out the meaning of animals’ sounds. d. By teaching animals to understand robots’ words. e. By learning animal languages to talk with them. A. a, b, c B. a, c, d C. b, c, e D. c, d, e 38. What does the underlined word “This” refer to in paragraph 3? A. The group of Israeli scientists. B. The study on bats’ disagreements. C. The number of bats’ calls. D. The finding on bats’ calls. 39. Why is it meaningful to understand animals’ languages? A. It makes it possible for animals to be heard. B. It proves human’s ability to understand and control animals. C. It helps discover more animals in the faraway places. D. It allows humans to listen to animals more clearly. 40. What does the writer think of the technology? A. He is surprised at it. B. He is afraid of it. C. He is careful about it. D. He is satisfied with it. 【答案】37. C 38. D 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是AI如何辅助破解动物语言。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据“However, by putting field recorders in trees, on mountaintops, and even on the backs of whales and birds, scientists can collect their sounds.”、“After the sounds are recorded, AI can study their meanings.”和“The new technology can not only understand animal talks, but also communicate back to them.”可知，在理解动物语言方面，AI和机器能帮助人们拾到人类听不见的声音、弄清楚动物声音的含义和与动物进行对话。故选C。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据“For example, a team of Israeli scientists used AI to get the meanings of bats’ 15,000 calls. They found that more than 60% of them were fights and disagreements ...”可知，科学家团队蝙蝠大部分的叫声是关于打斗和争吵的，这一发现和人们之前以为蝙蝠是安静的动物大为不同。故选D。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Why is it important to understand animals’ words? It is the first step to give other kinds of creatures on Earth a chance to express themselves. ”可知，理解动物的语言之所以重要，是因为这使得动物被听见成为可能。故选A。 【40题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Though AI has proved itself to be useful, we have to think about the problems it may bring. What problems would there be if one day we could use animal robots to “talk” to real animals? Will humans use the technology to control or hurt the animals? What can we do to stop these? We’d better think about these problems before we act.”可知，作者认为要谨慎对待这项科技，因为如果机器人和动物对话或人类用这项科技控制或伤害动物，后果会很严重。故选C。 第二节阅读填空（共5小题; 每小题1分, 满分5分） 阅读短文及文后A~E选项, 选出可以填入41~45各题空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A smile shows that a person is happy.
