There are many national parks in the UK, and you may know Northumberland National Park, the North York Moors National Park and so on. But when you think of wildlife holidays in the UK, Scotland is probably the first destination that springs to mind, with quite a few breathtaking natural sites that offer a wonderful base to watch wildlife.
Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park
It is the first national park established in Scotland. The Loch Lomond at the center of the park is the largest body of fresh water in the UK. The largest land mammal (哺乳动物) in Britain, red deer can be found in the park. Keep an eye out as you pass through forests, woodlands and open hills.
The Isle of Staffa
The Isle of Staffa is famous for its dramatic rock formations, and for the cave known as “Fingal’s Cave”. Staffa provided inspiration for Felix Mendelssohn, a German musician. He visited in 1829 and, afterwards, composed his Hebrides Overture. The island is also famous for its adorable seabirds — puffins, which are known for their vibrant beaks (鸟喙).
The Cairngorms National Park
The Cairngorms National Park is in northeast Scotland. With an area of about 1,750 square miles, the park covers the Cairngorms range of mountains and surrounding hills, and is the largest national park in the UK and the second national park in Scotland. Over 25% of the UK’s endangered species make their home in the park’s ancient pine forests, among which you can find the red squirrel (松鼠) — the UK’s only native squirrel species.
17. Which of the following is connected with the creation of a piece of music?
A. The North York Moors National Park.
B. Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.

Compared with physicists such as Marie Curie or Richard Feynman, Wu Chien-shiung is not a household name in China, where she was born and grew up, or in the United States, where she spent most of her life, but she was one of the most influential nuclear physicists of the 20th century, one that “radically (根本上)” changed human’s view of the universe.
Born on May 31, 1912, Wu was a diligent student. After graduating from the former National Central University in Nanjing in 1934, Wu enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley at the age of 24 to continue her study in physics.
She was always cautious in experiments. She didn’t start collecting data until she fully understood the instruments. To get accurate results, she worked hard day and night at a laboratory and gained a reputation for accuracy. There was a saying among physicists: If the experiment was done by Wu, it must be correct.
Wu was honored with the National Medal of Science in 1975 and became the president of the American Physical Society that same year. She was recognized as one of the best experimental physicists in the world. Wu retired from her position at Columbia University in 1981. During her 44-year career as a nuclear physicist, Wu’s remarkable achievements won her nicknames such as “Chinese Madame Curie”, “queen of nuclear research” and “first lady of physics”.
Although she spent most of her life in the US, Wu always wore qipao, a traditional Chinese gown. “She indeed had set a great model for women and girls to ‘see the limitlessness of life’, and ‘what can be gained by pushing past the barriers around you’,” wrote Jada Yuan, Wu’s granddaughter, in an article when she recalled the time spent with Wu. “She was fighting to be seen and respected at a time when women and Chinese people in America rarely were,” Yuan also wrote.
20. What do we know about Wu Chien-shiung from the first paragraph?
A. She was born and grew up in the United States.
B. Her influence on nuclear physics was significant.
C. She was equally well-known in China and the United States.
D. She was a physicist who only changed the view of the universe slightly.
21. What can best describe Wu Chien-shiung?
A. Innovative and lazy. B. Humble and diligent.
C. Hard-working and careful. D. Outgoing and intelligent.
22. Why was Wu Chien-shiung called “Chinese Madame Curie”?
A. Because she discovered radium like Marie Curie.
B. Because she won the Nobel Prize in Physics, just like Marie Curie.
C. Because she was born in China and later moved to France like Marie Curie.
D. Because she made significant contributions to physics, similar to Marie Curie.
23. What did Wu Chien-shiung’s granddaughter emphasize about her grandmother?
A. She defeated her enemies.
B. She worked hard to get promoted.
C. She cared much about her appearance.
D. She was an inspiration for women and girls.
【答案】20. B 21. C 22. D 23. D

We know many musical instruments well, such as pianos, violins, drums and so on. What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.
The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and it became quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.
As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally, there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).
24. When did the erhu become a popular instrument?
A. In the Tang Dynasty. B. In the Song Dynasty.
C. In the Ming Dynasty. D. In recent years.
25. Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The huqin belongs to the erhu family.
B. Folk art stops the development of the erhu.
C. People can find plenty of written records about the erhu.
D. The erhu is used in both traditional and modern music now.
26. In which section of a newspaper can you find this article?
A. Culture. B. Business. C. Health. D. Nature.
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The forms of folk music. B. The history of the erhu.
C. The rise of different dynasties. D. The development of Chinese instruments.

Autonomous driving vehicles may sound like science fiction, but they are racing into our daily lives sooner than many expected. Nowadays, people can hail (打车) robotaxis by using ride-hailing apps on their mobile phones in certain areas of Wuzhen, Zhejiang province.
All they need to do is to input pickup and drop-off points and the number of passengers and—a self-driving taxi approaches—with a safety operator sitting behind the wheel to monitor the vehicle for safety.
The vehicle runs smoothly and is capable of fully recognizing stop signs as it automatically decelerates before finally coming to a stop. As traffic lights change from red to green, the taxi moves through the crossings.
Last December, Baidu officially opened its Apollo Park in Wuzhen, which serves as an important R&D, design, application and testing base for autonomous vehicles in the Yangtze River Delta region.
As the fourth demonstration base for intelligent-connected vehicles built by Baidu in China, the park is equipped with facilities such as a vehicle-road coordination (协调) system, remote vehicle control platform, operation center and 5G-powered cockpit control system.
Baidu plans to expand Apollo Go services to 65 cities in 2025, and 100 in 2030, said Robin Li, CEO of the company. “The massively reduced costs will enable us to deploy (调动) tens of thousands of autonomous vehicles across China. We are moving toward a future where taking a robotaxi will be half the cost of taking a taxi today.”
So far, Baidu Apollo’s L4 autonomous vehicles have run more than 36 million kilometers, with 718 autonomous driving permits in China, including 571 for carrying passengers. L4 autonomy means the vehicle can drive by itself under most circumstances, without a human driver.
Baidu Apollo has rolled out robotaxi ride-hailing services in more than 10 cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
Yang Diange, a professor from the School of Vehicle and Mobility at Tsinghua University, said the commercial operation of self-driving vehicles will promote the innovation of technologies, and help companies explore reasonable business models, thus allowing autonomous driving technologies to create more value.
28. What does the underlined word “decelerate” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Speed up. B. Switch off.
C. Stretch out. D. Slow down.
29. Which contributes to more autonomous vehicles in China?
A. Lower cost. B. 5G-powered control system.
C. Ultimate safety. D. Convenient ride-hailing services.
30. What is Yang Diange’s attitude to the commercial operation of self-driving vehicles?
A. Cautious. B. Supportive.
C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Baidu, a tech pioneer
B. Baidu and its Apollo Parks
C. Autonomous driving taxis taking market by storm
D. Autonomous driving taxis replacing traditional ones overnight
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了百度计划扩展自动驾驶出租车的范围,推广其服务,自动驾驶出租车席卷市场。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。由第三段中的“The vehicle runs smoothly and is capable of fully recognizing stop signs as it automatically decelerates before finally coming to a stop. (车辆运行平稳,能够完全识别停车标志,并在最终停车前自动减速)”可知,结合“fully recognizing stop signs”和“coming to a stop”,停车需要减速,可得出decelerate意为“减速(Slow dow)”。故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。由第六段中的“The massively reduced costs will enable us to deploy (调动) tens of thousands of autonomous vehicles across China. (大幅降低的成本将使我们能够在中国各地部署数万辆自动驾驶汽车)”可知,更低的成本使中国有更多的自动驾驶汽车。故选A项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段“Yang Diange, a professor from the School of Vehicle and Mobility at Tsinghua University, said the commercial operation of self-driving vehicles will promote the innovation of technologies, and help companies explore reasonable business models, thus allowing autonomous driving technologies to create more value. (清华大学车辆与移动学院教授Yang Diange表示,自动驾驶汽车的商业运营将促进技术创新,帮助企业探索合理的商业模式,从而让自动驾驶技术创造更多价值)”可知,Yang Diange认为自动驾驶汽车的商业化运营有好处,可得出他对此持支持态度。故选B项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“Autonomous driving vehicles may sound like science fiction, but they are racing into our daily lives sooner than many expected. (自动驾驶汽车听起来可能像科幻小说,但它们比许多人预期的更快地进入我们的日常生活)”和第六段中的“Baidu plans to expand Apollo Go services to 65 cities in 2025, and 100 in 2030, said Robin Li, CEO of the company. (百度首席执行官李彦宏表示,百度计划2025年将Apollo Go服务扩展到65个城市,2030年将扩展到100个城市)”和倒数第二段“Baidu Apollo has rolled out robotaxi ride-hailing services in more than 10 cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. (百度Apollo已在北京、上海、广州和深圳等10多个城市推出了自动打车服务)”可知,文章介绍了百度计划扩展自动驾驶出租车的范围,推广其服务,自动驾驶出租车席卷市场,C项“自动驾驶出租车席卷市场”符合文意。故选C项。

【53题详解】

63. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
16-year-old Abigail, knowing that she was in for a rough afternoon, sighed as the door shut behind her mother. She thought back to when her mother asked her to watch her younger brother, Harry, for a few hours while she went to a meeting at work.
“What will Harry and I do together for an entire afternoon?” She complained. Her brother had a reputation for causing trouble. “You can play outside,” her mother replied. “You both love to play basketball.” “I guess that would be okay,” Abigail answered.
Now Abigail looked out of the window at the pouring rain and frowned (皱眉). There went her plan of spending the afternoon playing basketball. She looked at Harry nervously and said, “It’s raining too hard to go outside, so what would you like to do instead?” Harry shrugged (耸肩) his shoulders. “Do you want to color with crayons?” “Coloring is boring,” Harry said.
Abigail sighed. This was exactly what she had worried about. “Come on, Harry, we can’ t just sit here all afternoon. Please think of something you want to do.” Harry’s face lit up as he asked, “Can we play hide- and-seek(捉迷藏)?”
Abigail had stopped playing hide-and-seek years ago, but she was willing to do almost anything to keep Harry out of trouble until their mother came home. She covered her eyes with her hands and started counting. When she reached 50, she called out, “Ready or not, here I come!”
Abigail started by looking in the family room and then made her way into the kitchen. As she wondered where Harry was hiding, the perfect place popped into her head. She raced to the garage and climbed the stairs to the attic(阁楼). The floor was so dusty that she easily followed Harry’s footprints to where he was hiding behind a pile of boxes. “I found you!” she laughingly yelled. As Harry hopped up to run away, he knocked over several boxes. Abigail was about to scold him when the contents of the boxes caught her eye. Beautiful beads (珠子) of all shapes, colors, and sizes were now rolling around the attic floor.
注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph1:
“Cool beads! Do you think Mom would mind if we used them?”said Harry, bending down to pick them up.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph2:
When their mother came home, Abigail and Harry presented her with their gifts.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“Cool beads! Do you think Mom would mind if we used them?” said Harry, bending down to pick them up. “I don’t see why she would when they are just sitting up here gathering dust,” Abigail replied with a wide smile. “Besides, how could she mind if we used them to make gifts for her? These would make awesome necklaces.” Harry returned Abigail’ smile as they collected the beads, excited by the thought of having something fun to do on a rainy afternoon.
When their mother came home, Abigail and Harry presented her with their gifts. Abigail’s necklace had been carefully designed and planned coming in its own unique pattern. Harry, on the other hand, had not planned, stringing his beads in a very casual way, picking whatever bead was nearest and adding it to the others. The end results, however, were still interesting and beautiful. “What a wonderful welcome!” said their mother happily. “I had forgotten all about my grandmother’s collection of beads. Where did you find them?” “In the attic,” replied Harry with a smile. “They were playing hide-and-seek!”

There are many national parks in the UK, and you may know Northumberland National Park, the North York Moors National Park and so on. But when you think of wildlife holidays in the UK, Scotland is probably the first destination that springs to mind, with quite a few breathtaking natural sites that offer a wonderful base to watch wildlife.
Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park
It is the first national park established in Scotland. The Loch Lomond at the center of the park is the largest body of fresh water in the UK. The largest land mammal (哺乳动物) in Britain, red deer can be found in the park. Keep an eye out as you pass through forests, woodlands and open hills.
The Isle of Staffa
The Isle of Staffa is famous for its dramatic rock formations, and for the cave known as “Fingal’s Cave”. Staffa provided inspiration for Felix Mendelssohn, a German musician. He visited in 1829 and, afterwards, composed his Hebrides Overture. The island is also famous for its adorable seabirds — puffins, which are known for their vibrant beaks (鸟喙).
The Cairngorms National Park
The Cairngorms National Park is in northeast Scotland. With an area of about 1,750 square miles, the park covers the Cairngorms range of mountains and surrounding hills, and is the largest national park in the UK and the second national park in Scotland. Over 25% of the UK’s endangered species make their home in the park’s ancient pine forests, among which you can find the red squirrel (松鼠) — the UK’s only native squirrel species.

Compared with physicists such as Marie Curie or Richard Feynman, Wu Chien-shiung is not a household name in China, where she was born and grew up, or in the United States, where she spent most of her life, but she was one of the most influential nuclear physicists of the 20th century, one that “radically (根本上)” changed human’s view of the universe.
Born on May 31, 1912, Wu was a diligent student. After graduating from the former National Central University in Nanjing in 1934, Wu enrolled at the University of California, Berkeley at the age of 24 to continue her study in physics.
She was always cautious in experiments. She didn’t start collecting data until she fully understood the instruments. To get accurate results, she worked hard day and night at a laboratory and gained a reputation for accuracy. There was a saying among physicists: If the experiment was done by Wu, it must be correct.
Wu was honored with the National Medal of Science in 1975 and became the president of the American Physical Society that same year. She was recognized as one of the best experimental physicists in the world. Wu retired from her position at Columbia University in 1981. During her 44-year career as a nuclear physicist, Wu’s remarkable achievements won her nicknames such as “Chinese Madame Curie”, “queen of nuclear research” and “first lady of physics”.
Although she spent most of her life in the US, Wu always wore qipao, a traditional Chinese gown. “She indeed had set a great model for women and girls to ‘see the limitlessness of life’, and ‘what can be gained by pushing past the barriers around you’,” wrote Jada Yuan, Wu’s granddaughter, in an article when she recalled the time spent with Wu. “She was fighting to be seen and respected at a time when women and Chinese people in America rarely were,” Yuan also wrote.
20. What do we know about Wu Chien-shiung from the first paragraph?
A. She was born and grew up in the United States.
B. Her influence on nuclear physics was significant.
C. She was equally well-known in China and the United States.
D. She was a physicist who only changed the view of the universe slightly.
21. What can best describe Wu Chien-shiung?
A Innovative and lazy. B. Humble and diligent.
C. Hard-working and careful. D. Outgoing and intelligent.
22. Why was Wu Chien-shiung called “Chinese Madame Curie”?
A. Because she discovered radium like Marie Curie.
B. Because she won the Nobel Prize in Physics, just like Marie Curie.
C. Because she was born in China and later moved to France like Marie Curie.
D. Because she made significant contributions to physics, similar to Marie Curie.
23. What did Wu Chien-shiung’s granddaughter emphasize about her grandmother?
A. She defeated her enemies.
B. She worked hard to get promoted.
C. She cared much about her appearance.
D. She was an inspiration for women and girls.
C
We know many musical instruments well, such as pianos, violins, drums and so on. What about the erhu? The erhu is a traditional Chinese instrument. It is the most popular of the huqin family, and it has a long history.
The modern erhu developed from the xiqin, which was played by many ethnic minorities (少数民族) during the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, musicians began to use the erhu to perform different kinds of music, and it became quite a popular instrument. With the rise of some forms of folk art, the art of the erhu developed quickly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It became an important accompanying instrument in different folk music. At present, it is used in both traditional and modern music, such as in pop, rock and jazz. It has even become a solo (独奏) instrument. One of the most famous musical pieces played on the erhu is Erquan Yingyue.
As the erhu was mainly played by common people and the playing skills were passed down orally, there are few written records about the erhu that can be found. To study the history and the development of the erhu, historians usually turn to ancient paintings. The earliest pictures of this instrument were found in Yulin Caves and Eastern Thousand Buddha Caves in Gansu Province, where five erhu pictures were discovered on murals (壁画).
24. When did the erhu become a popular instrument?
A. In the Tang Dynasty. B. In the Song Dynasty.
C. In the Ming Dynasty. D. In recent years.
25. Which is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The huqin belongs to the erhu family.
B. Folk art stops the development of the erhu.
C. People can find plenty of written records about the erhu.
D. The erhu is used in both traditional and modern music now.
26. In which section of a newspaper can you find this article?
A. Culture. B. Business. C. Health. D. Nature.
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The forms of folk music. B. The history of the erhu.
C. The rise of different dynasties. D. The development of Chinese instruments.

Autonomous driving vehicles may sound like science fiction, but they are racing into our daily lives sooner than many expected. Nowadays, people can hail (打车) robotaxis by using ride-hailing apps on their mobile phones in certain areas of Wuzhen, Zhejiang province.
All they need to do is to input pickup and drop-off points and the number of passengers and—a self-driving taxi approaches—with a safety operator sitting behind the wheel to monitor the vehicle for safety.
The vehicle runs smoothly and is capable of fully recognizing stop signs as it automatically decelerates before finally coming to a stop. As traffic lights change from red to green, the taxi moves through the crossings.
Last December, Baidu officially opened its Apollo Park in Wuzhen, which serves as an important R&D, design, application and testing base for autonomous vehicles in the Yangtze River Delta region.
As the fourth demonstration base for intelligent-connected vehicles built by Baidu in China, the park is equipped with facilities such as a vehicle-road coordination (协调) system, remote vehicle control platform, operation center and 5G-powered cockpit control system.
Baidu plans to expand Apollo Go services to 65 cities in 2025, and 100 in 2030, said Robin Li, CEO of the company. “The massively reduced costs will enable us to deploy (调动) tens of thousands of autonomous vehicles across China. We are moving toward a future where taking a robotaxi will be half the cost of taking a taxi today.”
So far, Baidu Apollo’s L4 autonomous vehicles have run more than 36 million kilometers, with 718 autonomous driving permits in China, including 571 for carrying passengers. L4 autonomy means the vehicle can drive by itself under most circumstances, without a human driver.
Baidu Apollo has rolled out robotaxi ride-hailing services in more than 10 cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
Yang Diange, a professor from the School of Vehicle and Mobility at Tsinghua University, said the commercial operation of self-driving vehicles will promote the innovation of technologies, and help companies explore reasonable business models, thus allowing autonomous driving technologies to create more value.
28. What does the underlined word “decelerate” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Speed up. B. Switch off.
C. Stretch out. D. Slow down.
29. Which contributes to more autonomous vehicles in China?
A. Lower cost. B. 5G-powered control system.
C Ultimate safety. D. Convenient ride-hailing services.
30. What is Yang Diange’s attitude to the commercial operation of self-driving vehicles?

63. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
16-year-old Abigail, knowing that she was in for a rough afternoon, sighed as the door shut behind her mother. She thought back to when her mother asked her to watch her younger brother, Harry, for a few hours while she went to a meeting at work.
“What will Harry and I do together for an entire afternoon?” She complained. Her brother had a reputation for causing trouble. “You can play outside,” her mother replied. “You both love to play basketball.” “I guess that would be okay,” Abigail answered.
Now Abigail looked out of the window at the pouring rain and frowned (皱眉). There went her plan of spending the afternoon playing basketball. She looked at Harry nervously and said, “It’s raining too hard to go outside, so what would you like to do instead?” Harry shrugged (耸肩) his shoulders. “Do you want to color with crayons?” “Coloring is boring,” Harry said.
Abigail sighed. This was exactly what she had worried about. “Come on, Harry, we can’ t just sit here all afternoon. Please think of something you want to do.” Harry’s face lit up as he asked, “Can we play hide- and-seek(捉迷藏)?”
Abigail had stopped playing hide-and-seek years ago, but she was willing to do almost anything to keep Harry out of trouble until their mother came home. She covered her eyes with her hands and started counting. When she reached 50, she called out, “Ready or not, here I come!”
Abigail started by looking in the family room and then made her way into the kitchen. As she wondered where Harry was hiding, the perfect place popped into her head. She raced to the garage and climbed the stairs to the attic(阁楼). The floor was so dusty that she easily followed Harry’s footprints to where he was hiding behind a pile of boxes. “I found you!” she laughingly yelled. As Harry hopped up to run away, he knocked over several boxes. Abigail was about to scold him when the contents of the boxes caught her eye. Beautiful beads (珠子) of all shapes, colors, and sizes were now rolling around the attic floor.
注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph1:
“Cool beads! Do you think Mom would mind if we used them?”said Harry, bending down to pick them up.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph2:
When their mother came home, Abigail and Harry presented her with their gifts.
