An encounter with wild dogs in'a foreign land left her injured forcing her to halt her journey for the time being. However, these hardships did not threaten her. Instead, they served as precious trials that made her value each encounter with different cultures even more While tracing Marco Polo's footsteps, Vienna also researched deeply into Chinese culture She visited varlous Confucius Institutes, engaging in exchanges and learnlng with local students, therefore gaining a deep understanding of the virtues of "benevolence"(仁) and "harmony" containing in Confucianism.

Despite being separated by a thousand years, they resonated (回响) amazingly in Vienna's journey. “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" got new meaning in Vienna's travels.

C Common house cats possess the ability to associate human words with images withou instructions, a new research conducted by animal scientists at Azabu University in Japan has' revealed. This discoery, pblished in the jouma Scientfie Repors, throws new ligt on cats:"' cognitive abilities and their potential for understanding human language. The team designed an experiment to test cats' ability to form picture-word associations The study involved 31 adult house cats and applied a methodology similar to those used in baby language development research. In the experiment. cats were shown short videos paired with nonsensical words ("keraru" and "parumo"). These videos were played repeatedly until ,__ the cats looked away. After a break, the same videos were shown, but with the spoken words 高二英语第5页(共12页) 扫描全能王创建 disordered. The results were striking: cats demonstrated longer viewing duration and pupil (孔.) expansion when the word-image pairings were switched, indicating puzzlement and a search for explanation. This behavior suggests that the cats had formed associations between the spoken words and the images they saw, even without any training "It is noteworthy that cats made the picture-word relation after only brief exposure," the researchers said. "Most cats habituated to the stimulus (刺激物) pairing after four trials, which means they received only nine-second exposures in two trials for each picture-word pair." By comparison, trials involving human babies used at least four 20-second trials for a picture-word pair. It's not clear why cats are able to form these associations so quickly and more work is needed to examine the question from both biological and developmental perspectives. The impacts of domestication on cats need to be investigated too, the researchers said. This is particularly crucial. as the research also indicated that cats might find it easier to form associations between objects and human speech rather than electronic sounds 28. What is the new discovery about house cats? A. They can be trained to please human. B. They can read human's facial expressions C. They can link words to images without tips D. They can understand complex human language 29. What was cats' reaction to the disordered words? C. Calm. A. Confused. B. Fascinated. D. Indifferent. 30. How does the cats' learning process compare to that of human babies? A. The processes are similar in speed B. Cats learn faster than human babies C. Cats take longer to form associations D. Human babies learn with shorter exposure 31. What could be the key focus for future study? A. The biological development of cats. B. The effects of domestication on cats C. The cat's talent for identifying objects D. The cats' preference for electronic sounds 高二英语第6页(共12页) 扫描全能王创建 D Not long ago, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)(多动症) was thought to affect only school-aged boys -the naughty ones who could not sit still in class and were always getting into trouble. Today the number of ADHD diagnosis (诊断) is rising fast in all age groups. At the moment, ADHD is treated as somcthing you either have or you don't. which is a binary approach to diagnosis. It has two consequences. The first is that treating everyone as if they are ill fills up health-care systems. The second consequence occurs when ADHD is treated as a disorder that needs fixing. This leads to a terrible waste of human potential. Forcing yourself to fit in with the 'normal" is tiring and can cause anxiety and depression. The binary view of ADHD is no longer supported by science. Researchers have reali2ed that there is no such thing as the "ADHD brain". For most people with ADHD, the symptoms (症状) are mild enough to disappear when their environment plays to their strengths In Portsmouth, teachers have been trained to evaluate a child's neurodiversity(神经多样 性) characteristies that include speech. energy levels, attention and adaptability. The goal is to find where children need support and where they have strengths, without diagnosing them with anything in particular. Organizing lessons to mix sitting, standing and working in groups is one way to make things easier for pupils with ADHD Greater understanding of neurodiversity would reduce bullying in schools and help managers grasp that neurodiversity people are often specialists, rather than generalists. They may be bad in large meetings or noisy classrooms, but exceptional at things like multitasking and repetitive activities that require attention to detail. Using their talents wisely means leaving what they cannot do well to others A culrure that respects difference and takes an enlightened view of the rules will hel people achicve more and get more out of life. That, rather than more medical appointments, is the best way to help the growing numbers lining up for ADHD diagnosis 32. What does the author think of "the binary approach"? B. Effective C.Rare. A. Extreme D. Advanced 33. Why does the author mention the practice in Portsmouth? A. To advocate teamwork B. To stress teachers'role C. To prove no "ADHD brain". 高二英语第7页(共12页) 扫描全能王创建 D. To introduce a way to assess ADHD 34. In which condition might people with ADHD perform well? A. Attending a large meeting B. Helping teachers manage class C. Having a class in a noisy classroom D. Taking notes while watching a video 35. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. People with ADHD should accept themselves. B. ADHD people should get more medical treatnent. C. People should stop treating ADHD as a disorder D. People with ADHD should strictly obey social rules 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.
