The beautiful 13th-century Dragsholm Slot is now a luxury hotel with one of the most well-known restaurants in Zealand — Dragsholm Slot Gourmet. It holds a Michelin star, led by chef Jeppe Foldager who serves seasonal cuisine with materials farmed and hunted from the surrounding fields, forests and sea.

Noticing that the door was open, she entered the library, and was astonished to see the heartwarming scene that people were using it like on a regular day. It was scheduled to be closed for the New Year holiday. The people in the library behaved as usual. Many were sitting reading newspapers, some families were in the children's section and others were searching for books on the computer. It seemed that Elf's colleagues had simply forgotten to lock the door, and because this popular library is usually open on Saturdays. visitors just assumed they could walk in. Elf called to check with her staff team, before announcing to the people present that the library was about to close. Then she expressed her regret for what had been done wrong and caused them a problem. It later turns out that 446 locals visited the city library borrowing a total of 246 books during the day. What's remarkable is that people checked out their books through the library's electronic self-service system, and that to date, all the books have been returned! Many Swedes have reacted positively to this uplifting demonstration of local respect for the library, a center that can be seen as a sign of the community, and what the locals did has strengthened their sense of belonging in their community. Elf says, “Nothing was destroyed. It's amazing that Gothenburgers entered an empty library and treated and so lovingly.” The city leader has even suggested that this unusual Saturday serve as an accidental experiment to analyse the possibility of operating a totally automated library without staff. 4. Why did Elf feel surprised after entering the library? A. The library staff were in it. B. People kept reading on holidays. C. People came in without permission. D. It was used though supposed to be closed. 5. What did Elf do that Saturday? A. She left the library open. B. She asked the staff back. C. She apologized to the visitors. D.

Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. “There is power in a name, and some English bird names have associations with the past that continue to be exclusionary (排他的) and harmful today,” the organization’s president, Colleen Handel, said in a statement. “Everyone who loves and cares about birds should be able to enjoy and study them freely.” Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. “I’m really happy and excited about the announcement,” said Emily Williams, an ornithologist at Georgetown University who was not involved in the decision. She said heated discussions over bird names have been happening within birdwatching communities for the past several years. “Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. “The name has come to represent so much more than the work of one person,” Susan Bell, chair of the National Audubon Society’s Board of Directors, told Audubon magazine in March, adding, “We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past.” 8. Why are some examples given in paragraph 3? A. To state naming birds after people is common practice. B. To show birds are closely related to people’s daily life. C. To introduce some famous naturalists to the readers. D. To stress the influence celebrities have on society. 9. How should birds be named according to Emily Williams? A. After their places of birth. B. Based on their communities. C. According to their habits. D. In terms of their living places. 10. What is Susan Bell’s attitude towards the decision of NAS? A. Supportive. B. Carefree. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Rare Species Found in North America B. Bird Names Linking to Human History C. Discussions Caused by Bird Names D. Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国鸟类学会宣布将不再以人名命名北美洲的鸟类，并计划在未来一年内重新命名美国和加拿大发现的约80个物种。文章详细描述了这一决定的背景、原因以及相关的讨论和争议。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. (该组织宣布，所有鸟类都将重新命名，而不是单独审查每只以某个人命名的鸟类。将被重新命名的鸟类包括目前被称为威尔逊莺和威尔逊鹬的鸟类，它们都是以19世纪博物学家亚历山大威尔逊的名字命名的。奥杜邦的海鸥，一种以约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦命名的海鸟，也将得到一个新名字。2020年，该组织将一种曾经指联邦军队将军约翰·皮·麦考恩的鸟改名为厚嘴长刺鸟。)”可知，本段介绍了一些以人名命名的鸟类，目的是说明以人名给鸟类命名在过去是一种常见的做法。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句““Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. (她说：“根据栖息地或外表给鸟类命名是问题最少的方法之一。”)”可知，Emily Williams建议根据栖息地或外表给鸟类命名。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. (今年早些时候，美国国家奥杜邦协会（NAS）宣布将保留其名称，尽管批评人士和该组织内部的一些声音认为，它应该与约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦断绝关系，因为他的家人残忍地对待他们的员工。)”和最后一段中Susan Bell的话“We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past. (我们不应该忽视约翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦过去对员工所做的一切。)”可知，Susan Bell对美国国家奥杜邦协会决定保留以翰·詹姆斯·奥杜邦命名的海鸟的名字这一做法持反对意见。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Birds in North America will no longer be named after people, the American Ornithological Society (美国鸟类学会) announced Wednesday. Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. (美国鸟类学会周三宣布，北美的鸟类将不再以人的名字命名。明年，该组织将开始重新命名在美国和加拿大发现的大约80个物种。)”可知，文章主要报道了美国鸟类学会宣布将不再以人名命名北美洲的鸟类，并计划在未来一年内重新命名美国和加拿大发现的约80个物种。文章详细描述了这一决定的背景、原因以及相关的讨论和争议。D选项“Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year (明年鸟类将被重新命名)”最适合作文章标题。故选D。 D Playing with my 5-year-old child, I sometimes wonder: Why are her made-up games so terribly boring? In Learning to Imagine, psychologist Andrew Shtulman thinks it untrue that kids are uncontrolled wellsprings of imagination. On the contrary, the more we learn, the more imaginative we can become, and learning will not hold back imaginative ideas. Kids, he argues, fail to imagine obvious possibilities. To gather evidence for this argument, Shtulman explores mechanisms (机制) for expanding imagination. Without support of others or new tools and technologies, people may reject reasonable ideas out of hand, he maintains. Lord Kelvin, for instance, famously denied the possibility of “heavier-than-air flying machines” less than 10 years before the Wright brothers created one. Abstract principles, like those so influential in science and ethics (伦理学), also boost imagination. Finally, imagination grows through exploring alternative models of the world, as in plays, fiction and so on. Across all of these examples, expanding imagination requires building closely on what people already know. Perhaps counterintuitively (反直觉地), kids relate best to realistic stories. For instance, Walt Disney’s earliest cartoons were disorganized and strange. Only when the cartoons became “reasonably impossible” did they gain mass appeal. Many fictional worlds, from Middle Earth to Hogwarts, rely on reasonable impossibility. Shtulman cleverly and precisely sails this vast attractive sea. Learning to Imagine never drags or makes me get stuck on professional words. I wish, however, that there had been more focus on what these findings mean. If education does not hinder imagination, how do we develop it? Shtulman advises us to “engage with, and learn from, the collective knowledge of other people”. AI programs like GPT take that approach, educating themselves on massive data sets. “Be like GPT” is not the most heartening message. But while humans cannot learn large amounts of data quickly and easily like AI, human imagination is shared and cooperative. That, at least, is something all of us—5-year-olds and their dads alike-have over the chatbots. 12. What’s the misunderstanding about imagination according to Shtulman? A. It’s an inborn ability. B. It helps broaden the mind. C. Children are full of it. D. Inventions are based on it. 13. What does expanding imagination depend on? A. Known information. B. Realistic principles. C. Gradual exploration. D. Supportable arguments. 14. What does the underlined word “hinder” mean in paragraph 4? A. Improve. B. Prevent. C. Stress. D. Dismiss. 15. What is the text? A. A research report. B. A personal diary. C. A children’s story. D. A book review. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Andrew Shtulman在《学会想象》一书中关于想象力的观点和建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In Learning to Imagine, psychologist Andrew Shtulman thinks it untrue that kids are uncontrolled wellsprings of imagination. On the contrary, the more we learn, the more imaginative we can become, and learning will not hold back imaginative ideas.(在《学会想象》一书中，心理学家安德鲁·什图尔曼认为孩子是想象力的不受控制的源泉是不正确的。相反，我们学得越多，我们就越有想象力，而学习不会阻碍我们的想象力)”可知，在Shtulman看来，关于想象力的误解是孩子们满脑子都是。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Finally, imagination grows through exploring alternative models of the world, as in plays, fiction and so on. Across all of these examples, expanding imagination requires building closely on what people already know.(最后，想象力通过探索世界的不同模式而增长，如在戏剧、小说等中。在所有这些例子中，扩展想象力需要紧密地建立在人们已经知道的基础上)”可知，扩展想象力依赖于已知信息。故选A。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“imagination, how do we develop it?”以及“Shtulman advises us to “engage with, and learn from, the collective knowledge of other people”. AI programs like GPT take that approach, educating themselves on massive data sets.(Shtulman建议我们“参与并从他人的集体知识中学习”。像GPT这样的人工智能程序采用这种方法，在海量数据集上进行自我教育)”可知，后文提到Shtulman建议人们进行自我教育来开发想象力，可知划线词所在句的意思是假设在教育不会阻止想象力的情况下，我们如何发展想象力。故划线词意思是“阻止”。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In Learning to Imagine, psychologist Andrew Shtulman thinks it untrue that kids are uncontrolled wellsprings of imagination. On the contrary, the more we learn, the more imaginative we can become, and learning will not hold back imaginative ideas.(在《学会想象》一书中，心理学家安德鲁·什图尔曼认为孩子是想象力的不受控制的源泉是不正确的。相反，我们学得越多，我们就越有想象力，而学习不会阻碍我们的想象力)”结合文章主要介绍了Andrew Shtulman在《学会想象》一书中关于想象力的观点和建议。可知，文章是一篇书评。故选D。 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。 If your resolution is to learn a new language, you may be wondering: What’s the best way to go about this? ____16____ There are many different ways to approach it. If you want to start learning a language fast, though, there is plenty of advice we can offer. Is grammar important? Yes, grammar is important. But after all, when you’re learning your first language as a baby, your parents don’t have to teach you the clear rules of the language. ____17____ Should I focus on speaking or writing? ____18____ If you want to travel and communicate with native speakers, then writing might be slightly less helpful. But if you’re learning Latin because you want to read texts in the original language, then you can probably skip the speaking part entirely. Should I watch shows and listen to music in the language I’m learning? Absolutely yes. Being exposed to a language will always help you with your learning. ____19____ Watching movies to learn a language may have helped somewhat. But it’s important not to trap yourself with a complex language. How Can I make language learning more fun? One of the best ways to make learning more fun is to work it in to your other hobbies. ____20____ You can’t learn to play the guitar and go jogging at the same time, for example. However, language is always around you and you can practice it while doing something else. While jogging, you could listen to a podcast in another language. While playing the guitar, you could pick songs that are in your target language. Anyway, connecting your interests really matters. A. You just pick it up by nature. B. A new language isn’t like most other hobbies. C. Yet the real question is what you should watch or listen to. D. Unfortunately, there’s no “best way” to learn a new language. E. So it’s more important to get comfortable with speaking the language. F. The answer to this question really depends on what you hope to achieve. G. An important thing to remember is switching up how you’re exposed to the language. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. F 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学习一门语言的技巧。 【16题详解】 根据空前一句“What’s the best way to go about this? (什么是最好的方法？)”可知，空前是在提问什么是最好的方法，空处应回答该问题。D项“Unfortunately, there’s no “best way” to learn a new language. (遗憾的是，学习一门新语言没有最好的方法。)”可以作为该问题的回答，且D项与空后一句“There are many different ways to approach it. (有许多不同的方法来处理它。)”是顺承关系。故选D。 【17题详解】 根据本段的主旨句“Is grammar important? (语法重要吗？)”可知，本段与学习语法是否重要有关。由空前“Yes, grammar is important. But after all, when you’re learning your first language as a baby, your parents don’t have to teach you the clear rules of the language. (是的，语法很重要。但毕竟，当你在婴儿时期学习第一语言时，你的父母不需要教你语言的明确规则。)”可知，学习语言不用刻意地学习语法而是自然而然地学习。A项“You just pick it up by nature. (你只是自然而然地学会了。)”是对前一句的进一步解释，能承接上文，符合题意。故选A。 【18题详解】 根据本段主旨句提出的问题“Should I focus on speaking or writing? (我应该专注于说还是写？)”和下文“If you want to travel and communicate with native speakers, then writing might be slightly less helpful. But if you’re learning Latin because you want to read texts in the original language, then you can probably skip the speaking part entirely. (如果你想去旅行并与母语人士交流，那么写作可能就没那么有用了。但如果你学习拉丁语是因为你想阅读原文，那么你可以完全跳过口语部分。)”可知，应该专注于说还是写这个问题的答案取决于你希望达成什么。F项“The answer to this question really depends on what you hope to achieve. (这个问题的答案实际上取决于你希望达到什么目标。)”能承上启下，符合此处的语境。故选F。 19题详解】 根据空前的“Being exposed to a language will always help you with your learning. (接触一门语言对你的学习总是有帮助的。)”可知，接触一门语言对学习有帮助。根据空后的“Watching movies to learn a language may have helped somewhat. But it’s important not to trap yourself with a complex language. (通过看电影来学习一门语言可能会有所帮助。但重要的是不要让自己陷入复杂的语言中。)”可知，看电影来学习语言可能有一定的帮助，要有技巧。C项“Yet the real question is what you should watch or listen to. (然而，真正的问题是你应该看什么或听什么。)”与前文形成转折，指出真正的问题是你应该看什么或听什么，且能引起下文，符合此处的语境。故选C。 【20题详解】 空前一句“One of the best ways to make learning more fun is to work it in to your other hobbies. (让学习变得更有趣的最好方法之一就是把它和你的其他爱好结合起来。)”点明主题。根据下文“You can’t learn to play the guitar and go jogging at the same time, for example. However, language is always around you and you can practice it while doing something else. While jogging, you could listen to a podcast in another language. While playing the guitar, you could pick songs that are in your target language. Anyway, connecting your interests really matters. (例如，你不可能一边学弹吉他一边去慢跑。然而，语言总是在你身边，你可以在做其他事情的时候练习它。慢跑时，你可以听另一种语言的播客。在弹吉他的时候，你可以选择目标语言的歌曲。无论如何，把你的兴趣联系起来真的很重要。)”所举的例子和所做的解释可知，学习一门新语言不像大多数其他爱好，因为每时每刻语言都在我们身边。所以B项“A new language isn’t like most other hobbies. (一门新语言不像大多数其他爱好。)”能承上启下，符合此处的语境。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 That late afternoon I was assigned to accompany an important Chinese businessman to tourist sites in northern Thailand.

With the $200 she had earned, she wanted to buy some gifts for the poor families on the fifth floor for the coming New Year. Then, on a happy snowy evening, Julia went to the grocery store to buy some food. Later, she safely drove back home. At 9:30 that night, she called Grace and cried, “I lost my wallet and all $200 I had earned. My New Year’s Day is ruined.” “Don’t worry, Mom,” Grace said, completely unaware that Julia had gone out in the snow. “I will drive to your place in the morning and we will find it,” Grace told her mother. “No. It’s gone. It was in my pocket when I went to the store. But when I checked it just now, it wasn’t there,” Julia said. “I searched my car and home. Then, I drove back to the store to see if I left it there. But it wasn’t there either. Then, I walked through the parking lot, looking for it, but it wasn’t anywhere.” Thinking of her old mother’s going out on the snowy, windy night, Grace was heartbroken. “It’ll be okay, Mom,” she comforted her mother. “We’ll cancel the credit card, and we can replace all the rest of the things in your wallet.” However, getting her mother a new license as well as bank, medical, and identity cards was discouraging even for Grace. It took Grace several hours to drive to Julia’s house the following morning. But before she got there, Julia had already gone back to the store again. With tears in her eyes, she shared her story about the money she had earned with the store manager and asked if he could check his store for her wallet. The manager felt a great pity for her and thought to himself that if the wallet couldn’t be found, he’d give her some of his own money. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 With that thought, the manager began searching for the wallet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After Grace found the wallet, Julia went to return the money and buy New Year gifts. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: With that thought, the manager began searching for the wallet. He retraced every aisle Julia could have walked down. Despite his diligent search, the wallet was nowhere to be seen. Knowing how much the $200 meant to Julia, he handed Julia a box with $200 in it, saying, “My gift. Please take this and fulfill your New Year’s wish!” Julia went home with her eyes filled with tears. Julia was greeted with good news the minute she arrived home. Grace, who had come, discovered the misplaced wallet trapped in the folds of the couch. Paragraph 2: After Grace found the wallet, Julia went to return the money and buy New Year gifts. She proceeded to the store, telling the manager what had happened, but he simply wouldn’t take it. “Make it a bigger New Year for more,” he said with a smile. Julia, moved by his generosity, decided to use both the money she had earned and the money from the manager to buy presents not just for her fifth-floor neighbors, but for many others in need. The gifts spread far and wide, bringing unexpected happiness and creating a ripple of goodwill. 【解析】 【导语】本文以Julia和Grace两位人物为线索展开，讲述了Julia是一个勤劳善良的老人，为了赚钱给贫困家庭买新年礼物，她辛苦制作毛巾并在集市上出售。然而，在一个下雪的晚上，她外出购物后不慎丢失了钱包和里面的200美元。她的女儿Grace在得知母亲的遭遇后，尽力安慰并帮助她寻找钱包。同时，Grace也提出了实际可行的建议来应对这一突发情况。在Julia再次回到商店求助时，她的遭遇引起了店经理的同情。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“带着这样的想法，经理开始寻找钱包。”可知，第一段可描写经理帮助Julia寻找钱，但是没有找到，于是给了Julia200美元。 ②由第二段首句内容“Grace找到钱包后，Julia去还钱买新年礼物。”可知，第二段可描写Julia告诉经理经过，并还钱，经理让Julia拿着钱去帮助更多的人。 2. 续写线索：经理帮助找钱——没有找到——给于200美元——在家找到钱包——解释并还钱——经理让Julia去帮助更多人。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①到达：arrive/reach ②发现：discover/find ③决定：decide/determine 情绪类 ①感动的：moved/touched ②快乐：happiness/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1]Grace, who had come, discovered the misplaced wallet trapped in the folds of the couch.(who引导的非限制性定语从句) [高分句型2]She proceeded to the store, telling the manager what had happened, but he simply wouldn’t take it.(what引导宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 邓州春雨国文学校入学适应考试 高三英语 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Copenhagen is an ideal destination for food-loving travellers, but there are many gastronomic (美食的) adventures that await visitors outside this capital city of Denmark.

B One Saturday in December, Annacarin Elf, the head of operations at Gothenburg City Library, just happened to walk by her workplace. Noticing that the door was open, she entered the library, and was astonished to see the heartwarming scene that people were using it like on a regular day. It was scheduled to be closed for the New Year holiday. The people in the library behaved as usual. Many were sitting reading newspapers, some families were in the children's section and others were searching for books on the computer. It seemed that Elf's colleagues had simply forgotten to lock the door, and because this popular library is usually open on Saturdays. visitors just assumed they could walk in. Elf called to check with her staff team, before announcing to the people present that the library was about to close. Then she expressed her regret for what had been done wrong and caused them a problem. It later turns out that 446 locals visited the city library borrowing a total of 246 books during the day. What's remarkable is that people checked out their books through the library's electronic self-service system, and that to date, all the books have been returned! Many Swedes have reacted positively to this uplifting demonstration of local respect for the library, a center that can be seen as a sign of the community, and what the locals did has strengthened their sense of belonging in their community. Elf says, “Nothing was destroyed. It's amazing that Gothenburgers entered an empty library and treated and so lovingly.” The city leader has even suggested that this unusual Saturday serve as an accidental experiment to analyse the possibility of operating a totally automated library without staff. 4. Why did Elf feel surprised after entering the library? A. The library staff were in it. B. People kept reading on holidays. C. People came in without permission. D. It was used though supposed to be closed. 5. What did Elf do that Saturday? A. She left the library open. B. She asked the staff back. C. She apologized to the visitors. D. She read books in the library. 6. What do many Swedes think of the behavior of Gothenburg locals? A. It displays community spirit. B. It gives the library much uplift. C. It is a positive reaction to society. D. It strengthens trust between people. 7. What does the author want to convey through the story? A. People tend to show care for others. B. Life is always full of the unexpected. C. Libraries can be automated sometimes. D. A library can bring out the best in people. C Birds in North America will no longer be named after people, the American Ornithological Society (美国鸟类学会) announced Wednesday. Next year, the organization will begin to rename around 80 species found in the U.S. and Canada. “There is power in a name, and some English bird names have associations with the past that continue to be exclusionary (排他的) and harmful today,” the organization’s president, Colleen Handel, said in a statement. “Everyone who loves and cares about birds should be able to enjoy and study them freely.” Rather than review each bird named after a person individually, all such birds will be renamed, the organization announced. Birds that will be renamed include those currently called Wilson’s warbler and Wilson’s snipe, both named after the 19th-century naturalist Alexander Wilson. Audubon’s shearwater, a seabird named for John James Audubon, also will get a new name. In 2020, the organization renamed a bird once referring to a Confederate Army general, John P. McCown, as the thick-billed longspur. “I’m really happy and excited about the announcement,” said Emily Williams, an ornithologist at Georgetown University who was not involved in the decision. She said heated discussions over bird names have been happening within birdwatching communities for the past several years. “Naming birds based on habitat or appearance is one of the least problematic approaches,” she said. Earlier this year, the National Audubon Society (NAS) announced that it would keep its name, even as critics and some voices within the organization have argued that it should dump (抛弃) the association with a man, John James Audubon, whose family treated their employees cruelly. “The name has come to represent so much more than the work of one person,” Susan Bell, chair of the National Audubon Society’s Board of Directors, told Audubon magazine in March, adding, “We shouldn’t ignore what John James Audubon did to his employees in the past.” 8. Why are some examples given in paragraph 3? A. To state naming birds after people is common practice. B. To show birds are closely related to people’s daily life. C. To introduce some famous naturalists to the readers. D. To stress the influence celebrities have on society. 9. How should birds be named according to Emily Williams? A. After their places of birth. B. Based on their communities. C. According to their habits. D. In terms of their living places. 10. What is Susan Bell’s attitude towards the decision of NAS? A. Supportive. B. Carefree. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Rare Species Found in North America B. Bird Names Linking to Human History C. Discussions Caused by Bird Names D. Bird Species to Be Renamed Next Year D Playing with my 5-year-old child, I sometimes wonder: Why are her made-up games so terribly boring? In Learning to Imagine, psychologist Andrew Shtulman thinks it untrue that kids are uncontrolled wellsprings of imagination. On the contrary, the more we learn, the more imaginative we can become, and learning will not hold back imaginative ideas. Kids, he argues, fail to imagine obvious possibilities. To gather evidence for this argument, Shtulman explores mechanisms (机制) for expanding imagination. Without support of others or new tools and technologies, people may reject reasonable ideas out of hand, he maintains. Lord Kelvin, for instance, famously denied the possibility of “heavier-than-air flying machines” less than 10 years before the Wright brothers created one. Abstract principles, like those so influential in science and ethics (伦理学), also boost imagination. Finally, imagination grows through exploring alternative models of the world, as in plays, fiction and so on. Across all of these examples, expanding imagination requires building closely on what people already know. Perhaps counterintuitively (反直觉地), kids relate best to realistic stories. For instance, Walt Disney’s earliest cartoons were disorganized and strange. Only when the cartoons became “reasonably impossible” did they gain mass appeal. Many fictional worlds, from Middle Earth to Hogwarts, rely on reasonable impossibility. Shtulman cleverly and precisely sails this vast, attractive sea. Learning to Imagine never drags or makes me get stuck on professional words. I wish, however, that there had been more focus on what these findings mean. If education does not hinder imagination, how do we develop it? Shtulman advises us to “engage with, and learn from, the collective knowledge of other people”. AI programs like GPT take that approach, educating themselves on massive data sets. “Be like GPT” is not the most heartening message. But while humans cannot learn large amounts of data quickly and easily like AI, human imagination is shared and cooperative. That, at least, is something all of us—5-year-olds and their dads alike-have over the chatbots. 12. What’s the misunderstanding about imagination according to Shtulman? A. It’s an inborn ability. B. It helps broaden the mind. C. Children are full of it. D. Inventions are based on it. 13. What does expanding imagination depend on? A. Known information. B. Realistic principles. C. Gradual exploration. D. Supportable arguments. 14. What does the underlined word “hinder” mean in paragraph 4? A. Improve. B. Prevent. C. Stress. D. Dismiss. 15. What is the text? A. A research report. B. A personal diary. C. A children’s story. D. A book review. 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。 If your resolution is to learn a new language, you may be wondering: What’s the best way to go about this? ____16____ There are many different ways to approach it. If you want to start learning a language fast, though, there is plenty of advice we can offer. Is grammar important? Yes, grammar is important. But after all, when you’re learning your first language as a baby, your parents don’t have to teach you the clear rules of the language. ____17____ Should I focus on speaking or writing? ____18____ If you want to travel and communicate with native speakers, then writing might be slightly less helpful. But if you’re learning Latin because you want to read texts in the original language, then you can probably skip the speaking part entirely. Should I watch shows and listen to music in the language I’m learning? Absolutely yes. Being exposed to a language will always help you with your learning. ____19____ Watching movies to learn a language may have helped somewhat. But it’s important not to trap yourself with a complex language. How Can I make language learning more fun? One of the best ways to make learning more fun is to work it in to your other hobbies. ____20____ You can’t learn to play the guitar and go jogging at the same time, for example. However, language is always around you and you can practice it while doing something else. While jogging, you could listen to a podcast in another language. While playing the guitar, you could pick songs that are in your target language. Anyway, connecting your interests really matters. A. You just pick it up by nature. B. A new language isn’t like most other hobbies. C. Yet the real question is what you should watch or listen to. D. Unfortunately, there’s no “best way” to learn a new language. E. So it’s more important to get comfortable with speaking the language. F. The answer to this question really depends on what you hope to achieve. G. An important thing to remember is switching up how you’re exposed to the language. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 That late afternoon I was assigned to accompany an important Chinese businessman to tourist sites in northern Thailand.

With the $200 she had earned, she wanted to buy some gifts for the poor families on the fifth floor for the coming New Year. Then, on a happy snowy evening, Julia went to the grocery store to buy some food. Later, she safely drove back home. At 9:30 that night, she called Grace and cried, “I lost my wallet and all $200 I had earned. My New Year’s Day is ruined.” “Don’t worry, Mom,” Grace said, completely unaware that Julia had gone out in the snow. “I will drive to your place in the morning and we will find it,” Grace told her mother. “No. It’s gone. It was in my pocket when I went to the store. But when I checked it just now, it wasn’t there,” Julia said. “I searched my car and home. Then, I drove back to the store to see if I left it there. But it wasn’t there either. Then, I walked through the parking lot, looking for it, but it wasn’t anywhere.” Thinking of her old mother’s going out on the snowy, windy night, Grace was heartbroken. “It’ll be okay, Mom,” she comforted her mother. “We’ll cancel the credit card, and we can replace all the rest of the things in your wallet.” However, getting her mother a new license as well as bank, medical, and identity cards was discouraging even for Grace. It took Grace several hours to drive to Julia’s house the following morning. But before she got there, Julia had already gone back to the store again. With tears in her eyes, she shared her story about the money she had earned with the store manager and asked if he could check his store for her wallet. The manager felt a great pity for her and thought to himself that if the wallet couldn’t be found, he’d give her some of his own money. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With that thought, the manager began searching for the wallet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After Grace found the wallet, Julia went to return the money and buy New Year gifts. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
