They could be your family’s next vacation. Wildlife Wonders The Okavango Delta in northern Botswana is one of southern Africa’s biggest and most biodiverse freshwater watersheds (流域) and a dream destination for animal lovers of all ages. It sustains the planet’s most endangered animals, including the largest remaining elephant population, cheetahs, African wild dogs, wattled cranes, and great white pelicans. Fairy Chimneys Central Turkey’s Göreme National Park is a dry region of volcanic stone that takes fantastic forms, which often called fairy chimneys (仙女烟囱). Some of the most striking sights are villages carved into the volcanic stone. The Göreme Open Air Museum, valley hikes, cave hotels, hot air balloon rides, and guided tours are highlights for all ages. The Earliest Mummies (木乃伊) Wrapped simply in reeds and decorated with hair and clay masks, Chile’s Chinchorro mummies are 2,000 years older than Egypt’s. At San Miguel de Azapa Archaeological Museum, only a few of the 300 samples are on view, while at Colón 10, visitors can see 48 mummies buried in the earth through a glass floor. Dinosaur Fossils Dinosaur Provincial Park in Canada gives some paleontologists (古生物学者) a chance to explore landscapes. Although visitors are not permitted to dig in this fragile environment, the park offers a full schedule of family-friendly fossil tours, guided activities, and dinosaur displays. Families can camp out under the stars and dream of the days when various dinosaurs lived in this region. 21．Which of the following makes the Okavango Delta special? A．Beautiful villages. B．Rare freshwater fishes. C．Diverse wildlife species. D．Striking views of mountains. 22．Where should visitors go if they want to see the earliest mummies? A．Botswana. B．Chile. C．Egypt. D．Canada. 23．What can visitors do at Dinosaur Provincial Park? A．Have a night camping trip. B．Explore landscapes in the valley. C．Dig for man-made dinosaur fossils. D．Attend a lecture by a paleontologist. B Every festival has its own meaning. Labour Day, for example, celebrates the value of hard work. But somehow it now seems that while celebrating all festivals we just care about one thing-shopping. And that can be a big problem. “In a way, over-consumption (过度消费) is the mother of all our environmental problems,” Kalle Lasn once told CNN. Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day, a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits, and has now become an international event. It’s held on the day, which is known as Black Friday-a famous shopping day in the US and Canada. You can see the irony (奇异可笑之处) here. Even though the idea of Buy Nothing Day was brought up 29 years ago, we seem to need it now more than ever. It’s just as Lasn said, all the different kinds of dilemmas(困境) in our lives today—bad air quality, the reduction of forest area, endangered animal species, and plastic bags found in the ocean-seem to be the same cause: over-consumption. The latest example is the Singles’ Day shopping craze of Nov.11, which saw a new sales record. But as Nie Li, a campaigner at Greenpeace, told Reuters, “Record-setting over-consumption means record-setting waste.” And it was reported that last year the Singles’ Day packages left more than 160,000 tons of waste, including plastic and cardboard. The Collins dictionary has also just named “single-use” its Word of the Year, pointing out the problem that there’re too many things we throw away after only using them once. So, Buy Nothing Day might only be here for one day a year, but it’s not just to remind us about a break from shopping on that day, but to change our lifestyle completely, focusing on fun “with people we care about” rather than wasting money on useless things. 24．What’s the author’s purpose of writing the first paragraph? A．To express people’s love for all festivals. B．To talk about the meaning of the festivals. C．To appreciate the value of the festivals. D．To introduce the topic of the passage. 25．Why did Kalle Lasn organize Buy Nothing Day? A．To help people save money. B．To cut the cost for daily life. C．To prevent over-consumption. D．To set up a new sales record. 26．What’s Nie Li’s attitude towards the shopping craze? A．Opposed. B．Supportive. C．Unknown. D．Neutral. 27．What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Creating a New Lifestyle B．Buy Nothing Day C．Festivals Around the World D．A Change in People’s Life C Reading doesn’t come naturally to people, but most of us have learned how. Eighty-six percent of the world’s population is literate(有读写能力的)，and this rate has been increasing for centuries. Literacy makes it possible to travel a world filled with books, websites, text messages, road signs and more. Could a growing number of people participate in today’s world without reading or writing at all? Technology makes it possible. Most of our devices now talk to us and take spoken orders. Smart cars ask for a destination and then give directions. Smart virtual assistants listen for requests to report the weather, play a song, set a timer, order groceries, and much more. Software can also read text aloud or turn speech into text. These interactions aren’t perfect-the software still makes silly mistakes. But it’s getting better and better. It’s possible to imagine a future world where all of our communication with our devices and each other is spoken. But reading and writing are powerful tools. For one, most people read faster than they speak. A podcaster or audio book narrator speaks at around 150 to 160 words per minute, while a strong reader can go through a text at 300 to 400 words per minute. That’s twice as fast! Research has also found that people remember more information and stay more interested when they read as opposed to listen. Learning to read also creates new connections in the brain. In the book Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain, Maryanne Wolf writes that with the invention of reading, human beings “rearranged the very organization of our brain, which in turn expanded the ways we were able to think, which changed the intellectual evolution of our species.” Would we really choose to give up that progress? What do you think? Do you hope people keep on reading and writing, or will technology make literacy obsolete(淘汰的)? 28．What does the 2nd paragraph focus on? A．Technology makes up for illiteracy. B．Many people have problems with literacy. C．Technology is a double-edged sword. D．Technology is changing fast. 29．Compared to listening, what will a person do when reading? A．Gather more information. B．Remember less clearly. C．Show less interest. D．Learn more words. 30．Why does the author mention Maryanne’s book? A．To give an example of a book on reading. B．To show the evolution of human beings. C．To prove that reading is related with brain. D．To explain the need for reading and writing. 31．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A textbook. B．A blog post. C．A book review. D．An academic article. D A growing demand for turtles(乌龟) as pets in the United States, Asia, and Europe has led to a rise in poaching. Poaching means to catch or kill an animal illegally. Wildlife trade experts believe the rise in poaching is adding to the worldwide drop in rare freshwater turtles. Such concerns have led to proposals to increase protection for freshwater turtles. More than 180 nations have gathered this week in Panama as part of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, or CITES. Tara Easter, a doctoral student, studies the trade. She looked at turtle trade data from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. She found that the business export trade for mud turtles in the United States increased from 1,844 in 1999 to nearly 40,000 in 2017 and that the trade in musk turtles increased from 8,254 in 1999 to more than 281,000 in 2016. The United States and several Latin American countries have suggested stopping or limiting the trade in more than 20 turtle species. In their CITES proposal, the countries included data from Mexico that found nearly 20,000 were confiscated from 2010 to 2022. To confiscate means to take something away from someone to carry out laws or rules. The illegal trade has also led governments to suggest listing for the first time 42 turtle species under CITES, including North American musk turtles. A listing means traders will need permits to sell them internationally. Matthew Strickler is with the U.S. Department of the Interior. He is heading the American group at the CITES meeting in Panama. He called the possible listings and increased protection for North American turtles “really, really important”. “We’ve seen this pattern of turtles being depleted in one place, and then poachers and traders moving to another place,” Strickler said. “Southeast Asia was depleted. They moved to Africa. Now, we see them moving to the Americas.” 32．What is the real cause of the drop in the turtle population? A．Hunting them for their medical value. B．The pollution of freshwater. C．Humans’ keeping them as pets. D．Their homes being destroyed. 33．What do we know from Tara Easter’s study? A．Turtle trade grew rapidly. B．Turtles were well protected. C．Turtles grow more and more popular. D．Mud turtles were liked better than musk turtles. 34．What does listing some species under CITES mean? A．Allowing selling them freely. B．Limiting the trade in them internationally. C．Hunting them by law. D．Canceling international wildlife trade. 35．What does the underlined word “depleted” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Fed. B．Reduced. C．Joined. D．Protected. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，共12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Here are some habits to help you enjoy a longer and better life. Eat better. You don’t have to adopt some crazy diet or give up all sweets. Instead, try to eat a few more vegetables and fruits. 36 . A whole food is an ingredient in its natural state, one that comes in its own wrapper. While it’s even better to eat cuisine that is organic, locally grown or pesticide-free, start by shopping for groceries that require no packaging. Check with your doctor. When you feel good, it’s easy to avoid going to the doctor. No matter how you feel, though, it’s a good idea to visit your doctor for an annual check up. 37 . In addition, depending on your age and family history, the doctor may recommend other necessary tests or screenings. For example, your doctor may also do blood tests to check your cholesterol or screen for hormonal imbalances. 38 . Keep moving. Exercise lowers blood pressure, controls our weight, strengthens our bones and muscles, reduces our risk for cancers, and improves mood. Some research also says it has the power to keep us young. Physical activities including exercises can improve our flexibility, strength and balance. 39 . Just work more movement into your day. 40 . Simply said, we are better together. Steps to build a social network include getting involved with joining a cause or volunteering for an organization or checking out a support group.

The little bird waiting inside the house would be my first 43 as a volunteer wildlife rescuer since I’d completed a two-day training course the previous month. A call had come through that afternoon asking for help 44 a bird of an unknown species was being attacked by two youngsters in his garden. He 45 the children and grabbed their victim. I went inside to see my very first patient. I was 46 , but with the man watching on, I would have to look confident. With great care, I lifted the edge of the shoe box very 47 to see a tiny-looking bird standing to attention on very thin legs. The bird was trembling, so I decided not to grab it by hand but just transfer the whole shoebox into my rescue box. I didn’t want to appear unprofessional. Back home, I couldn’t see any obvious 48 of injury. I hadn’t seen this species of bird before, so I googled for a 49 on the Internet. After a while, I came across something that looked like a match: a fantail, so called because of its 50 feathers that, when fully open, spread out into a neat little “fan”. I phoned the bird specialist of my local rescue group. She told me this species hunts 51 on the wing, and I needed to set it free the next day on the same street it came from. I waited until evening the next day, which would provide the cover of 52 , to release it. I was back on the street where I’d rescued it, gently holding the bird, and wondered what would be 53 for this delicate creature this time around. Nothing. It would have to take care of itself just as before, and be strong enough to catch some insects and recover its energy levels without delay. I held the bird as 54 as I could to give it a good lift-off: the little bird 55 swiftly into the darkness without a pause. My first rescue had ended in a successful release. 41．A．friend’s B．doctor’s C．stranger’s D．patient’s 42．A．read B．follow C．notice D．announce 43．A．test B．vacation C．entertainment D．competition 44．A．so B．as C．if D．until 45．A．scared off B．caught up C．fought for D．talked back 46．A．courageous B．careful C．anxious D．curious 47．A．impatiently B．slightly C．hurriedly D．noisily 48．A．symbol B．proof C．sign D．cause 49．A．kind B．variety C．species D．likeness 50．A．head B．neck C．body D．tail 51．A．insects B．pests C．beetles D．worms 52．A．light B．power C．blanket D．darkness 53．A．similar B．different C．risky D．harmful 54．A．high B．far C．low D．close 55．A．fell away B．got down C．ran across D．flew off 第二节 短文填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入１个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 As a student, classes and workshops might take up most of your day, but 56 you make use of your time can make all the difference.

Now we’ll talk about making a good first impression. You only get one chance to do that. right? A really great way to make a good first impression is to make eye contact and to show real interest in the person you’re meeting. It’s important to remember their names. When you first meet somebody, you should use their names during the conversation to let them know that you remember their names. You should also allow them to have the spotlight. You can share information about yourself, but don’t control the conversation; it’s not all about you. Even if you’re the most interesting person in the world, people want to talk about themselves too. So be a great listener, ask questions and really make a point of getting to know the other person. And you know, people like to talk about themselves. So if you let them do that, then they’re going to like you. Finally, make sure you dress nicely and have good posture. Don’t be negative and don’t complain; no one wants to hear your problems. Just be positive, be yourself and be a good listener. 21．C 22．B 23．A 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍的是被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的几个全球景点的相关信息。 21．细节理解题。根据Wildlife Wonders部分的“It sustains the planet’s most endangered animals, including the largest remaining elephant population, cheetahs, African wild dogs, wattled cranes, and great white pelicans.(这里生活着地球上最濒危的动物，包括现存数量最多的大象、猎豹、非洲野狗、肉垂鹤和大白鹈鹕。)”可知，Okavango Delta的亮点是多样化的野生物种。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据The Earliest Mummies (木乃伊)部分的“Wrapped simply in reeds and decorated with hair and clay masks, Chile’s Chinchorro mummies are 2,000 years older than Egypt’s.(智利的Chinchorro木乃伊仅用芦苇包裹，用头发和粘土面具装饰，比埃及的木乃伊早了2000年。)”可知，如果游客想看最早的木乃伊，应该去智利。故选B。 23．细节理解题。根据Dinosaur Fossils部分的“Dinosaur Provincial Park(恐龙省立公园)”和“Families can camp out under the stars and dream of the days when various dinosaurs lived in this region.(一家人可以在星空下露营，梦想着各种恐龙生活在这个地区的日子。)”可知，游客在恐龙省立公园可以进行一次夜间露营旅行。故选A。 24．D 25．C 26．A 27．B 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了“无购物日”的设立及意义。 24．推理判断题。根据第一段“Every festival has its own meaning.

And that can be a big problem.(每个节日都有自己的意义。例如，劳动节庆祝辛勤工作的价值。但不知为何，现在看来，在庆祝所有节日的同时，我们只关心一件事——购物。这可是个大问题。)”和第二段中““In a way, over-consumption(过度消费)is the mother of all our environmental problems,” Kalle Lasn once told CNN. Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day, a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits, and has now become an international event.(“在某种程度上，过度消耗是我们所有环境问题的根源。”拉森是1992年在加拿大设立的“无购买日”的组织者，该日旨在与不健康的消费习惯作斗争，如今已成为一项国际活动。)”可推知，第一段的主要目的是介绍这篇文章的主题——“无购买日”。故选D。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中““In a way, over-consumption(过度消费)is the mother of all our environmental problems,” Kalle Lasn once told CNN. Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day, a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits, and has now become an international event.(“在某种程度上，过度消耗是我们所有环境问题的根源。”拉森是1992年在加拿大设立的“无购买日”的组织者，该日旨在与不健康的消费习惯作斗争，如今已成为一项国际活动。)”可知，Kalle Lasn设立“无购物日”的目的是防止过度消耗。故选C。 26．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“But as NVie Li, a campaigner at Greenpeace, told Reuters, “Record-setting over-consumption means record-setting waste.”(但是正如绿色和平组织的活动家 NVie Li 告诉路透社的，“创纪录的过度消耗意味着创纪录的浪费。”)”可推知，Nie Li对购物狂潮持反对态度，故选A。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段““In a way, over-consumption (过度消费) is the mother of all our environmental problems,” Kalle Lasn once told CNN. Lasn is the organizer of Buy Nothing Day, a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits, and has now become an international event. It’s held on the day, which is known as Black Friday-a famous shopping day in the US and Canada.(“在某种程度上，过度消耗是我们所有环境问题的根源。”拉森是1992年在加拿大设立的“无购买日”的组织者，该日旨在与不健康的消费习惯作斗争，如今已成为一项国际活动。这一天被称为黑色星期五，是美国和加拿大著名的购物日。)”可知，文章主要介绍了“无购物日”的设立及意义，B项“无购物日”适合做文章标题，故选B。 28．A 29．A 30．C 31．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了当今社会科技使人不读不写就能融入社会，但是读写能力仍然是最强大的认知工具。 28．主旨大意题。根据第二段“Could a growing number of people participate in today’s world without reading or writing at all? Technology makes it possible. Most of our devices now talk to us and take spoken commands.(越来越多的人不读不写就能融入当今世界吗？科技使之成为可能。现在，我们的大多数设备都能与我们对话，并接受语音指令)”可知，本段主要介绍，由于智能科技设备的识别语音功能，没有读写识字能力的人也有可能融入社会生活。科技弥补了不识字这一缺陷。故选A项。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段“For one, most people read faster than they speak. A podcaster or audio book narrator speaks at around150to 160 words per minute, while a strong reader can cruise through a text at 300 to 400 words per minute. That’s twice as fast! Research has also found that people remember more information and stay more interested when they read as opposed to listen.(首先，大多数人读得比说得快。播客或有声书的解说员每分钟大约说150到160个单词，而阅读能力强的人每分钟可以读300到400个单词。这是原来的两倍!研究还发现，与听相比，人们在阅读时能记住更多信息，也更有兴趣)”可知，与听相比，在相等时间内，阅读能获取更多信息。故选A项。 30．推理判断题。根据最后一段“In her book Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain, Maryanne Wolf writes that with the invention of reading, human beings ‘rearranged the very organization of our brain, which in turn expanded the ways we were able to think, which changed the intellectual evolution of our species.’(玛丽安·沃尔夫在她的书《普鲁斯特和乌贼:阅读大脑的故事和科学》中写道，随着阅读的发明，人类“重新安排了我们大脑的组织，这反过来扩展了我们能够思考的方式，从而改变了我们物种的智力进化)”可知，Maryanne Wolf认为阅读是和大脑组织有联系的，作者提到她的书也是要证明这一点。故选C项。 31．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Could a growing number of people participate in today’s world without reading or writing at all? Technology makes it possible.(越来越多的人不读不写就能融入当今世界吗？科技使之成为可能)”和最后一段末“Would we really choose to give up that progress?What do you think? Do you hope people keep on reading and writing, or will technology make literacy obsolete?(我们真的会选择放弃这种进步吗？你怎么看？你希望人们继续阅读和写作，还是希望科技使读写能力过时？)”可知，作者在和读者互动，期待答复与评论。由此推测，文章可能出自网络博客的帖子。故选B项。 32．C 33．A 34．B 35．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了在美国、亚洲和欧洲，对海龟作为宠物的需求不断增长，这导致了偷猎行为的增加以及全球多国采取的保护措施。 32．细节理解题。根据第一段“A growing demand for turtles(乌龟) as pets in the United States, Asia, and Europe has led to a rise in poaching. Poaching means to catch or kill an animal illegally. Wildlife trade experts believe the rise in poaching is adding to the worldwide drop in rare freshwater turtles(在美国、亚洲和欧洲，对海龟作为宠物的需求不断增长，这导致了偷猎行为的增加。偷猎是指非法捕获或杀害动物。野生动物贸易专家认为，偷猎行为的增加加剧了全球稀有淡水龟数量的下降)”可知，海龟数量下降的真正原因是人类养海龟作为宠物，故选C项。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段“She found that the business export trade for mud turtles in the United States increased from 1,844 in 1999 to nearly 40,000 in 2017 and that the trade in musk turtles increased from 8,254 in 1999 to more than 281,000 in 2016(她发现，美国泥龟的商业出口贸易从1999年的1844只增加到2017年的近40000只，麝香龟的贸易从1999的8254只增长到2016年的281000多只)”可知，塔拉·伊斯特的研究发现海龟贸易快速增长，故选A项。 34．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“A listing means traders will need permits to sell them internationally.( 上市意味着交易方需要获得许可才能在国际上销售)”可知，将某些海龟品种列入《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》意味着在国际上限制它们的贸易，故选B项。 35．词句猜测题。根据最后一段划线词下文“then poachers and traders moving to another place(然后偷猎者和交易方转移到另一个地方)”可知偷猎者和交易方转移地方，说明他们偷猎的对象的数目在减少，可推理出划线词的含义为“减少”，故选B项。 36．C 37．F 38．G 39．D 40．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章认为养成好习惯可以帮助你享受更长更好的生活，针对这一问题，本文给了几个建议。 36．根据下文“A whole food is an ingredient in its natural state (全食品是一种食品成分为自然状态的食品)”可推理出上文提到了全食品，C项“You can also eat more whole foods(你也可以多吃全食品)”符合语境，故选C项。 37．根据上文“it’s a good idea to visit your doctor for an annual check up(每年去看医生做一次检查是个好主意)”推知，空处内容应与医生做体检有关，F项“The doctor will most likely carry out some routine tests(医生很可能会做一些常规检查)”符合语境，故选F项。 38．空处位于段末应承接上文。根据上文“For example, your doctor may also do blood tests to check your cholesterol or screen for hormonal imbalances.(例如，你的医生也可以做血液测试来检查你的胆固醇或筛查激素失衡。)”可知，检测可以识别潜在的问题，G项“Each of these tests can help identify any potential problems(这些测试中的每一项都可以帮助识别任何潜在的问题)”符合语境义一致，故选G项。 39．根据上文“Physical activities including exercises can improve our flexibility, strength and balance(包括锻炼在内的体育活动可以提高我们的灵活性、力量和平衡)”以及下文“Just work more movement into your day.(只需在一天中多运动)”可知此处上下文说的是体育活动对身体有益，但是不必做剧烈的运动，只要每天多运动，分析待选项，D项“You don’t have to take up running marathons(你不必参加马拉松比赛)”符合语境，故选D项。 40．根据下文“Simply said, we are better together.(简单地说，我们在一起会更好。)”可知此处上下文说的是要多与别人建立连接，与B项“Connect with people(与他人建立联系)”表达的含义一致，故选B项。 41．C 42．B 43．A 44．B 45．A 46．C 47．B 48．C 49．D 50．D 51．A 52．D 53．B 54．A 55．D

56．考查主语从句。句意：作为一名学生，课堂和工作坊可能会占用你一天的大部分时间，但你如何利用时间会有很大的不同。该空引导主语从句，表“如何”，用连接副词how作从句的方式状语。故填how。 57．考查固定搭配。句意：它将帮助你保持条理，并关注最重要的事情。固定搭配pay attention to (关注)符合句意。故填to。
