Here're 4 strangest sports played worldwide.
Zorbing
It's an extreme sport, but there appears to be no competitive element involved, making
it more of a recreational activity than a sport. You get inside a large inflatable orb(充气球)
that's made of plastic, and then the orb is rolled off the top of a hill. The orbs are double
layered, ensuring there's a shock absorber to stop injuries. It originated in New Zealand in
the late 199Os ( the birthplace of many extreme sports).
Sepak Takraw
It's a popular sport in Asia and has been around since the 15th century. It translates to
"kick ball", but it's nothing like soccer. A more accurate comparison to make would be
英语(二)第2页(共8页)
volleyball. Unlike volleyball, however, you're not allowed to use your hands and instead you
must use your feet, knees or your chin. In the Asian Games Beijing 199O, it was the official
competition event for the first time.
Kabaddi
It has a history of more than 4,oOO years, and has roots in Indian wrestling and allows
you to tackle your opponent to the ground. It's the national game of Bangladesh and Nepal.
Each year there's a World Cup in South Asia, and India has won this every single year since
it started. In the 199o Asian Games in Beijing, men's kabaddi became an official event.
Chess Boxing
Dutch performance artist Lepe Rubingh is the inventor. The first competition took place
in Berlin in 2oo3, but it's since exploded in popularity and it's now played in Germany,
Great Britain, and India, with major organizations and competitions taking place each year.
A chess boxing fight consists of 11 rounds ( six chess, five boxing), alternating between
each sport and lasting three minutes.
21. What can we say about Zorbing?
A. It's highly entertaining.
B. It's the youngest of the four.
C. Its players get injured easily.
D. Its aim is to stop using plastic.
22. What can be learned about India according to the text?
A. It is credited with chess boxing.
B. It is superior in playing kabaddi.
C. It's home to many extreme sports.
D. It spread Sepak Takraw to South Asia.
23. Which sports became official competition events at the same time?
A. Zorbing and Kabaddi.
B. Chess Boxing and Zorbing.
C. Sepak Takraw and Kabaddi.
D. Sepak Takraw and Chess Boxing.

Now, a new exhibition at the Heide Museum of Modern Art in Melbourne, Australia. is
examining hair art.
"For thousands of years, hair has been presenting ideas about gender, status, power,
the body, psychology, and beauty," says senior curator (馆长) Melissa Keys. "Occupying
an important place in the world of appearances, it has always assumed a particular
importance in relation to the self and society."Keys tells The Guardian's Tim Byrne that she
started thinking about the exhibition about ten years ago, when some of her friends were
running a gallery in a space previously occupied by a hair studio.
The new show, titled Hair Pieces, features works from 38 artists from eight countries.
Visitors will see paintings, sculptures, photography, videos and recorded live performances.
"It's a massive topic," Keys says. "So many artists, though not that famous, work with this
material, so there's an opportunity for a number of shows. I wanted this one to be open and
suggestive.”
Some of the artworks are serious, while others are humorous-or even
completely strange. Walking through the exhibition, visitors will encounter a can of
mushrooms filled with dark hair, red shoes made from wigs(假发) and more.
Australian artist Julie Rrap's contribution, Horse's Tale ( 19o9), examines ideas such as
beauty standards, and cultural expectations of women. Some pieces on view are playful.
Charlie Sofo and Debris Facility's Found Combs, which began in 2Oo7, is a collection of
combs(梳子) that were found on the street. Other artworks take on weightier subjects.
Johannesburg-based artist Kemang Wa Lehulere's work, called Pencil Test 2 (2O12), shows
Wa Lehulere moving pencils through his hair-a reference to a practice in South Africa in the
1950s, when oficials used a " pencil test" to classify a person's race. Perhaps the most
famous artists featured in the exhibition are Marina Abramovic and Ulay. Relation in Time
英语(二)第3页(共8页)
(1977) features video footage of the partners sittng back-to-back for hours, their long hair
tied together.
24. Why did Keys hold Hair Pieces?
A. To show hair's cultural significance.
B. To promote her collection of hair art.
C. To help her friends run an art gallery.
D. To urge people to look after their hair.
25. What do we know about the artworks at Hair Pieces?
A. They are world-famous.
B. They were ignored by people.
C. They were created by barbers.
D. They strike diverse tones.
26. Whose work uncovers a racial issue according to the text?
A. Julie Rrap's
B. Kemang Wa Lehulere's.
C. Marina Abramovic and Ulay's.
D. Charlie Sofo and Debris Facility's.

The Florida panther (美洲豹) that is crucial to the natural environment has received
help from conservation groups and state officials.
Panthers once wandered throughout the southern US. Elise Bennett, a biologist, said.
The species has even been documented as far north as Louisiana. They have been limited to
a small geographic area in southwest Florida after being hunted to near-extinction. The
population is capped due to the limited amount of space to house them and a lack of safe
passage elsewhere in the state, according to panther experts.
There're only about 2OO panthers left in the wild. Experts say the only way for the
species to recover is to expand their range northward. The goal is to create three separate
panther populations with at least 24o adults to support the genetic flow of the species,
according to the US Fish and Wildlife Service, which listed the Florida panther under the
Endangered Species Act in 1967. There's currently only one group in Florida.
The development of highways and roads in Florida, one of the fastest-growing states in
the country, has "bottlenecked" the panthers, Bennett said. The Florida Department of
Transportation has teamed with scientists and wildlife conservation groups to build wildlife
crossings across the state to allow animals like panthers, bears and deer a safe passage across
roadways. These crossings are meant to prevent animals entering highways and more than 50
have been constructed since planning began in 1972. A new crossing at Interstate 4 near the
State Road 57 interchange in Polk County is near completion and more than a dozen are in
the works.
Cars are one of the biggest dangers to panthers, Bennett said. Thirteen panthers were
hit and killed by cars in 2023. At least 13 have been killed on roadways so far this year.
We've seen great progress for panther populations south of the Caloosahatchee River.
But the success for panther conservation still faces many challenges. "We have a long way to
go,"Bennett said.
28. What can be inferred about panthers from paragraph 2?
A. Their habitat used to be vast in America.
B. They had been extinct in Florida before.
C. They had the largest population in Florida.
D. Their survival ability is stronger than others'.
英语(二)第4页(共8页)
29. Which of the following best describes the goal of protecting panthers?
B. Practical.
C. Debatable.
A. Unnecessary.
D. Ambitious.
30. What has posed a threat to panthers in Florida?
A. Its rapid expansion of transportation.
B. Its damage to the natural environment.
C. Its continuous increase of residents.
D. Its introduction of other wild species.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. Studying panthers' living habits.
B. Saving the Florida panther.
C. Listing the importance of panthers.
D. Forecasting panthers' promising future.
D
The rapidly expanding use of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence (AI) tools has
fired up a heated debate in academia.
On one side of the debate, professors and teachers are concerned over the future of post-
secondary learning and threats to traditional disciplines(学科), especially within the
humanities, as headlines warn of "The End of the English Major". Nevertheless, AI is here
and about a third of teachers, from kindergarten through high school, report using it in the
classroom, according to a recent survey. While many of our workfellows in higher education
policy, science policy, and university design criticize or dismiss generative AI, we are
instead decidedly optimistic that it will follow a pattern seen in other technologies that have
enhanced educational access and success.
History supports this view. From the Gutenberg press to online math classes,
technologies that improve access to quality learning opportunities were routinely dismissed by
critics. Consider the calculator. A survey in the mid-197Os carried out by Mathematics
Teacher
magazine found that 72 percent of respondents-mainly
teachers
and
They
mathematicians-opposed equipping seventh graders with calculators.
said an
overdependence on it would weaken students' math skills.
It's easy to see how the use of the calculator mirrors current concerns about generative
AI. The College Board made a similar argument in an article published last spring that talked
about the "Great Calculator Panic of the 198Os and 90s". Critics of AI in the classroom
argued that students might never learn to write a simple sentence or a basic five-paragraph
essay.
Actually, the introduction of calculators into classrooms didn't cause the demise of
mathematics education; instead, it significantly broadened its ranges while inspiring
educators and academics to rethink the educational limits of mathematics. This shift created a
climate ripe for innovation. Today's math learning environment is observably more dynamic,
inclusive and creative than it was before common access to calculators.
Far from fearing technological progress, history teaches us to accept it to broaden
learning.
32. What is the author's attitude to the adoption of AI into the classroom?
B. Unclear.
C. Doubtful.
A. Dismissive.
D.Approving.
33. What can we say about online math classes?
A. They were promoted by the calculator.
B. They were not thought well of at first.
C. They relied on old teaching methods.
D. They laid the foundation for AI's use.
34. Why does the author mention the case of the calculator?
A. Tohighlight a problem.
B. To present an assumption.
C. To support an argument.
D. To explain a definition.

35. What does the underlined word "demise" mean in paragraph 5?

What should you do to stay cool and safe at home when summer power outages(停电)
prevent you from using fans and air conditioners?Emergency response and medical experts
share their tips.
How to stay cool
36 . Frequently wetting T-shirts or other clothing with water can help boost this
effect. That does two things that are pretty beneficial. Firstly, you have the potential for all
of that water to evaporate (蒸发) off the skin and actually cool the body. And secondly, it
lowers the need for your own body to produce that sweat.
37 . That'sbecause their
bodies produce less sweat as they age.
If the temperature inside your house during the day is the same, or warmer,
thanit is
outside, you can open windows to increase air flow-but make sure to keep curtains closed.
especially if windows are receiving direct sunlight. 38 .
Food safety
If the power goes out, the food that's in your refrigerator can keep cold for about four
hours, and what is in your freezer can keep cold for up to two days. You can move food to a
cooler.
39 . In this way, they can keep the cooler temperature below 4.4C.
If food in your fridge starts to have an unusual smell or color, don't hesitate to throw it
away.
40 . If food that must be kept cold has been exposed to temperatures of at least
4. 4C for longer than four or 48 hours, depending on whether it is refrigerated or frozen, it
should be thrown away so that you don't give yourself food poisoning.
A. Or, remember a principle
B. Avoid sweating wherever you are
C. When it's hot, the body cools off by sweating
D. But make sure there is enough ice and cold packs
E. People like the foods that don't require refrigeration
F. Such strategies could be particularly helpful for older people
G. At night, if temperatures drop, open windows help increase the flow of cooler air

短文。
A New York mother and daughter couldn't be prouder of one another after they graduated
together from Onondaga Community College (OCC) in Syracuse.
Barbara Wiggins, 58, and her daughter Tanisha Wiggins, 36, walked side by side
together at their graduation ceremony as they both received their associate of science degrees
in human services.
“I'm extremely proud of my mom," Tanisha said. "When I started school, my mom was
going to school at the same time. That was really a proud moment for me." Barbara, who has
worked as a doula(助产士),said she was inspired to go back to school after seeing others
around her succeed in higher education. "It was about just helping people and getting more
educated," Barbara, a mother of five and grandmother of 12, explained.
Barbara Wiggins enrolled (注册) at OCC in 2O21, and although she was hesitant at
first, being a non-traditional student, she never gave up on her goal of graduating. "There
was a kid in my class, 18 years old," Barbara recalled. "I said,'I have an 18-year-old
grandson. I'm old enough to be your grandmother.'And we all just started laughing.
Throughout her journey, Barbara said her teachers and her family were some of her biggest
cheerleaders and supporters.
Meanwhile, Tanisha Wiggins also decided to return to school after first starting at OCC
back when she was 18."I suffered from serious depression at a young age," Tanisha
explained."I was in and out of the hospital, so that prevented me from finishing school."
Later, Tanisha said she started on medication and began working, and going back to
school was pushed to the side until she had her children, who are now 2 and 1. "I decided to
go back after I had kids, because I need to make a better future for them," the mom of two said.
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。
Tanisha is grateful for OCC's "Help Mothers with Children" program.
The success of the mother and daughter also depended on each other's support.
