The park’s three main islands of Komodo, Rinca and Padar make ideal destinations for divers, as the surrounding coral reefs support a vast amount of oceanic diversity. With over 1, 000 species of fish, 260 species of coral, and countless sea animals, this is an ideal spot to swim with sharks, whales, dolphins and more. Namib-Naukluft Location：Namibia Area: 49, 768km2 In the world’s oldest desert, the landscape moves. The golden dunes shift as winds blow and seasons pass. Visitors come to explore the dunes and it can be a real adventure. Jump in a 4×4 or hike across the sands on foot for a multi-day trail and you’ll soon find yourself deep in the Namibian wilderness. You’ll need a permit and doctor’s letter to take on the longer hikes, but one-day hikes give anyone a chance to see more of the Namib. Tongariro Location: New Zealand Area: 795km2 As New Zealand’s oldest national park, Tongariro National Park is home to three active volcanoes. And here’s the Tongariro. Alpine Crossing, a 19.4-kilometre hike that takes you across beautiful landscapes. This park also draws in skiers during the winter seasons. The biggest ski area, Whakapapa, covers 5.5km2 and has 15 lifts in all. Teide Location: Tenerife, Spain Area: 190km2 This park is home to Mount Teide, the highest peak in Spain. With a height of 3,718 metres, Mount Teide is also the third largest volcanic structure on the planet. Besides, Teide National Park possesses unique plants. The most unusual among the 139 recorded species is red bugloss, which has become the symbol of the park. 21. What can visitors do in Komodo National Park? A. Hike across the biggest ski area Whakapapa. B. Go diving on its 29 islands. C. Have an up-close encounter with ocean life. D. Play with the Komodo dragon. 22. Which of the following parks is the biggest? A. Teide National Park. B. Komodo National Park. C. Tongariro National Park. D. Namib-Naukluft National Park. 23. What do the last two parks have in common? A. Both are well-known for their volcanoes. B. Both own more than 100 plant species. C. Both ate perfect choices for skiers. D. Both feature golden dunes. 【答案】21. C 22. D 23. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了世界上最大的四个国家公园。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Komodo中的“With over 1, 000 species of fish, 260 species of coral, and countless sea animals, this is an ideal spot to swim with sharks, whales, dolphins and more. (这里有1000多种鱼类、260种珊瑚和数不清的海洋动物，是与鲸鱼、海豚等一起游泳的理想场所。)”可知，游客在科莫多国家公园可以近距离接触海洋生物。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章每一部分的开头进行判断。“Komodo Area:1,733 km2 (Komodo 面积：1733平方公里)”，“Namib-Naukluft Area: 49,768km2(Namib-Naukluft 面积：49768平方公里)，“Tongariro Area:795km2 (Tongariro面积：795平方公里)”，“Teide Area:190km2 (Teide 面积：190平方公里)”可知，Namib-Naukluft国家公园是最大的。故选D。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Tongariro中的“As New Zealand’s oldest national park, Tongariro National Park is home to three active volcanoes.(作为新西兰最古老的国家公园，Tongariro国家公园是三座活火山的所在地。)”以及Teide中的“Mount Teide is also the third largest volcanic structure on the planet.  (Teide山也是地球上第三大火山结构。)”可知，最后两个公园有的共同点是两者都以火山闻名。故选A。 B Steph put some flowers “borrowed” from her neighbour Mrs Robinson’s garden next to her cold breakfast and costly plates, and took a photo. She wanted to brighten the colours on her picture. Choosing a filter (滤镜), she noticed TrueBeauty downloaded before. Her picture looked perfect with that filter. She posted it on the social media for her 15k followers, hoping they would wish to have the same life as she showed. Then she threw away the food now that it was cold. Steph was surprised to get so few likes and so many negative comments. She looked again at the picture she had posted. Her picture showed a horrible breakfast with flies all over them and the flowers were dead. She tried to delete (删除) the photo, but she couldn’t. Just then, she received a message. Steph read: Dear User, I know that each of you truly cares about showing yourself. Are you as beautiful on the inside as on the outside? If you want your pictures to show the real you, it’s time to be as beautiful in real life as on your social media. Love, True Beauty PS. You can’t remove the filter or delete the pictures you posted using it. After the first time you use TrueBeauty, it will change all your photos from that moment on! Steph made her account private to hide the ugly pictures. She didn’t want to do anything if she couldn’t post photos of her life. With nothing to do, she went downstairs, past Mrs Robinson’s garden. She noticed the smell of the flowers for the first time. Lovely! Then she saw Mrs Robinson watering the plants. She offered to help. A couple of hours later, they were done with the work. Steph had enjoyed herself a lot. They took a picture, standing together in front of the roses and smiling. Later that evening Steph looked at the picture on her phone. She changed the colours a little bit. The roses looked beautiful anyway with or without any changes. Nothing could improve the smiles on her and Mrs Robinson’s faces. A really beautiful picture! She posted this picture. It looked exactly the same online! She made her account public again and added some text to the photo: Beauty in the garden. 24. Why did Steph post the filtered picture online? A. To show off her life. B. To try out a new filter. C. To share her tasty breakfast. D. To teach photography skills. 25. What can we learn about TrueBeauty? A. It improves the ugly pictures. B. It calls on us to behave honestly. C. It advises us to hide comments. D. It cares about its users’ feelings. 26. How did Steph feel about gardening with Mrs Robinson? A. Uplifted. B. Confused. C. Confident. D. Lucky. 27. What would the author most possibly write next? A. Steph no longer posted her life on social media. B. Steph successfully removed the TrueBeauty app. C. Steph learned to improve her appreciation of beauty. D. Steph inspired her followers to value their inner self. 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了曾经爱慕虚荣的斯蒂芬收到了TrueBeauty的信息，要求她展示真实的自我，于是她和罗宾逊太太一起做园艺振奋精神，玩的很高兴。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Her picture looked perfect with that filter. She posted it on the social media for her 15k followers, hoping they would wish to have the same life as she showed. Then she threw away the food now that it was cold.(她的照片用那个滤镜看起来很完美。她在社交媒体上为她的1.5万名粉丝发布了这张照片，希望他们也能过上和她一样的生活。然后她扔掉了食物，因为它已经冷了)”可知，斯蒂芬把这张添加滤镜的照片上传到网上是为了炫耀她的生活。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中“PS. You can’t remove the filter or delete the pictures you posted using it. After the first time you use TrueBeauty, it will change all your photos from that moment on!( PS：你不能删除滤镜，也不能删除你用它发布的照片。在你第一次使用TrueBeauty之后，它将从那一刻起改变你所有的照片！)”可知，TrueBeauty要求我们诚实行事。故选B。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Then she saw Mrs Robinson watering the plants. She offered to help. A couple of hours later, they were done with the work. Steph had enjoyed herself a lot. They took a picture, standing together in front of the roses and smiling.(然后她看见罗宾逊太太在给植物浇水。她主动提出帮忙。几个小时后，他们完成了工作。斯蒂芬玩得很开心。他们一起站在玫瑰前，微笑着照了相)”可知，斯蒂芬觉得和罗宾逊太太一起做园艺振奋精神。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Later that evening Steph looked at the picture on her phone. She changed the colours a little bit. The roses looked beautiful anyway, with or without any changes. Nothing could improve the smiles on her and Mrs Robinson’s faces. A really beautiful picture! She posted this picture. It looked exactly the same online! She made her account public again and added some text to the photo: Beauty in the garden.(那天晚上晚些时候，斯蒂芬看着手机里的照片。她稍微改变了一下颜色。不管有没有变化，玫瑰看起来都很漂亮。什么也不能使她和罗宾逊太太脸上的笑容更加灿烂。真是一幅美丽的画！她发了这张照片。在网上看起来一模一样!她再次公开了自己的账户，并在照片上加上了一些文字：花园里的美人)”可知，作者接下来最有可能写斯蒂芬鼓励她的追随者重视内心的自我。故选D。 C For many years, David James, a researcher studying insects at Washington State University, had a strong desire to study the migration (迁徙) patterns of West Coast monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶). However, it was difficult to track their route because the populations are too small to follow. Typically, only one out of every 200 tagged monarchs is recovered at the end of their journey, making it unlikely to find enough butterflies in the wild to tag. Understanding their migration route is important for conservation efforts, but James had no means to determine it until he received an unexpected phone call from Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla. The prison was looking for new activities to enhance the mental well-being of those serving long-term sentences. James collaborated with the prisoners to raise monarch butterflies, observing their complete transformation process. Once the adult butterflies were ready, they were tagged and released from the prison. Over a span of five years, nearly 10,000 monarchs flew from the facility. In other regions of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, researchers released a few thousand more. The tags on the butterflies included email addresses, and shortly after the first butterflies took flight, James started receiving messages from people who had spotted them. The reports confirmed that the butterflies spent their winter in coastal California. Twelve of them were found at Lighthouse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz, while several others made their way to Bolinas and Morro Bay. This research not only helps scientists identify suitable locations to plant milkweed and other essential vegetation for the West Coast monarch butterfly’s life cycle but also revealed a compassionate side among some of the prisoners. “They were genuinely concerned about causing harm to the butterflies,” James recalls. Witnessing the transformation of the monarch butterflies also had an impact on the prisoners. “This butterfly changed,” prisoners told James, “and maybe we can change too.” 28. What was the main challenge faced by David James in his study? A. The small population size of the butterflies. B. The lack of suitable tagging equipment. C. The difficulty in locating the butterflies’ wintering grounds. D. The resistance from the prison authorities. 29. Why did James work with prisoners from Washington State Penitentiary? A. To raise awareness about the importance of monarch butterflies. B. To provide the prisoners with a new activity for mental health improvement. C. To study the behavior of monarch butterflies in a controlled environment. D. To train the prisoners in butterfly tagging techniques. 30. Why are the butterflies tagged before being released? A. To guarantee their safety. B. To enable them to fly longer distances. C. To track their travel routes. D. To distinguish them from other species. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The impact of the research. B. The findings of James’ study. C. The release of the prisoners. D. The life cycle of the butterflies. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了David James想要研究黑脉金斑蝶的迁徙，但是很难找到足够可以跟踪的蝴蝶，华盛顿州立监狱的囚犯帮助饲养蝴蝶，然后打上包括邮箱地址的标签放飞， James收到了来自发现蝴蝶的人们的信息，从而让研究工作顺利进行，这项工作帮助研究人员确定了理想的种植马利筋和其他植被的地方，这些植被对西海岸黑脉金斑蝶蝶的生命周期很重要，也激发了一些囚犯富有同情心的一面。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“However, it was difficult to track their route because the populations are too small to follow. Typically, only one out of every 200 tagged monarchs is recovered at the end of their journey, making it unlikely to find enough butterflies in the wild to tag.(然而，很难追踪它们的路线，因为它们的数量太少了。通常情况下，每200只被标记的黑脉金斑蝶中只有一只在旅程结束时被发现，这使得在野外找到足够多的蝴蝶来标记是不太可能的。)”可知，研究中主要挑战是黑脉金斑蝶的数量太少，人们无法去跟随。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The prison was looking for new activities to enhance the mental well-being of those serving long-term sentences. James collaborated with the prisoners ...(监狱正在寻找新的活动来增强那些长期服刑人员的心理健康。詹姆斯与囚犯们合作……)”可知，与囚犯们合作是为了改善囚犯们的心理健康。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“it was difficult to track their route because the populations are too small to follow.(很难追踪它们的路线，因为它们的数量太少了。)”和第三段“The tags on the butterflies included email addresses, and shortly after the first butterflies took flight, James started receiving messages from people who had spotted them. The reports confirmed that the butterflies spent their winter in coastal California. Twelve of them were found at Lighthouse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz, while several others made their way to Bolinas and Morro Bay.(蝴蝶身上的标签包括电子邮件地址，在第一只蝴蝶起飞后不久，詹姆斯开始收到看到它们的人的信息。报告证实，这些蝴蝶在加利福尼亚沿海度过了冬天。其中12只在圣克鲁斯的灯塔菲尔德州立海滩被发现，而其他几只则前往波利纳斯和莫罗湾。)”可知，给蝴蝶打上标签是为了追踪他们的路线。故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“This research not only helps scientists identify suitable locations to plant milkweed and other essential vegetation for the West Coast monarch butterfly’s life cycle but also revealed a compassionate side among some of the prisoners.(这项研究不仅帮助科学家们确定适合种植马利筋和西海岸黑脉金斑蝶蝶生命周期所需的其他重要植被的地点，而且还揭示了一些囚犯富有同情心的一面。)”可知，文章主要讲述了这项研究工作的影响。故选A。 D People’s first memories are all autobiograpbical (自传式的), or memories of significant experiences in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia. However, research suggests that infants (婴儿) can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and tell it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can show that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often. But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we inst have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses. One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick. Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face and start to form some sense of self. Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second year of life, they can’t form descriptions about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus, which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors might contribute to infantile amnesia. 32. What can infants do in their first few months? A. Recognize familiar faces. B. Remember a series of events. C. Identify their own reflections. D. Memorize their family members. 33. What does the rouge test show about babies between 18 and 24 months? A. They like looking in the mirror. B. They ignore the marks on their faces. C. They see their reflections as themselves. D. They enjoy playing with their reflections. 34. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia according to the text? A. Infants’ lack of social skills. B. Infants’ undeveloped hippocampus. C. Infants’ inability to recall memories. D. Infants’ unusual autobiographical memories, 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How do kids form their memories? B. When do babies start remembering? C. How can we retrieve lost memories? D. Why can’t we remember being a baby? 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。研究表明婴儿可以形成其他类型的记忆，但是大多数人都不记得生命最初几年的事情，这种现象被称为“婴儿健忘症”，文章介绍了科学家们对导致婴儿健忘症的因素的猜测结果。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A few months later, infants can show that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often. (几个月后，婴儿可以通过对他们最常看到的人笑得最多来表明他们记得许多熟悉的面孔)”可知，几个月龄的婴儿已经可以认出最常看到的脸，并会对这些熟悉的脸有更多的笑。故选A项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick. (其一，自传式记忆要求你有某种自我意识。研究人员通过一项名为‘胭脂测试’的镜像识别任务来测试这种能力。它包括在婴儿的鼻子上涂上一点红色的口红。)”，第五段“Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face and start to form some sense of self. (在18到24个月之间，婴儿摸自己的鼻子，甚至看起来很尴尬，这表明他们把镜子里的红点和自己的脸联系起来，开始形成某种自我意识。)”可知，18-24个月的婴儿看到镜子中的影像的鼻子上有红色的印记，会摸自己的鼻子，说明他们知道镜子里的影像和自己有关，故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的第二句“Finally, the hippocampus, which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. (最后，海马体是大脑中主要负责记忆的区域，在婴儿时期并没有完全发育。)”可知，导致婴儿健忘症是因为在婴儿时期，负责记忆区域的海马体还没有完全发育，故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we inst have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses. (但如果是这样，为什么人们会经历婴儿健忘症呢？虽然目前还不清楚这是因为我们无法形成自传式记忆，还是因为我们没有办法检索它们，但科学家们有一些猜测。)”可知，本文围绕婴儿健忘症这个现象展开，介绍了科学家们对导致婴儿健忘症的因素的猜测结果，“Why can’t we remember being a baby? (作为一个婴儿，为什么我们记不住事情？)”适合作文章标题。故选D项。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Show Respect Whether you’re talking to your best friend or a stranger, respecting them shows that you’re kind and considerate.

B Steph put some flowers “borrowed” from her neighbour Mrs Robinson’s garden next to her cold breakfast and costly plates, and took a photo. She wanted to brighten the colours on her picture. Choosing a filter (滤镜), she noticed TrueBeauty downloaded before. Her picture looked perfect with that filter. She posted it on the social media for her 15k followers, hoping they would wish to have the same life as she showed. Then she threw away the food now that it was cold. Steph was surprised to get so few likes and so many negative comments. She looked again at the picture she had posted. Her picture showed a horrible breakfast with flies all over them and the flowers were dead. She tried to delete (删除) the photo, but she couldn’t. Just then, she received a message. Steph read: Dear User, I know that each of you truly cares about showing yourself. Are you as beautiful on the inside as on the outside? If you want your pictures to show the real you, it’s time to be as beautiful in real life as on your social media. Love, True Beauty PS. You can’t remove the filter or delete the pictures you posted using it. After the first time you use TrueBeauty, it will change all your photos from that moment on! Steph made her account private to hide the ugly pictures. She didn’t want to do anything if she couldn’t post photos of her life. With nothing to do, she went downstairs, past Mrs Robinson’s garden.

C For many years, David James, a researcher studying insects at Washington State University, had a strong desire to study the migration (迁徙) patterns of West Coast monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶). However, it was difficult to track their route because the populations are too small to follow. Typically, only one out of every 200 tagged monarchs is recovered at the end of their journey, making it unlikely to find enough butterflies in the wild to tag. Understanding their migration route is important for conservation efforts, but James had no means to determine it until he received an unexpected phone call from Washington State Penitentiary in Walla Walla. The prison was looking for new activities to enhance the mental well-being of those serving long-term sentences. James collaborated with the prisoners to raise monarch butterflies, observing their complete transformation process. Once the adult butterflies were ready, they were tagged and released from the prison. Over a span of five years, nearly 10,000 monarchs flew from the facility. In other regions of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, researchers released a few thousand more. The tags on the butterflies included email addresses, and shortly after the first butterflies took flight, James started receiving messages from people who had spotted them. The reports confirmed that the butterflies spent their winter in coastal California. Twelve of them were found at Lighthouse Field State Beach in Santa Cruz, while several others made their way to Bolinas and Morro Bay. This research not only helps scientists identify suitable locations to plant milkweed and other essential vegetation for the West Coast monarch butterfly’s life cycle but also revealed a compassionate side among some of the prisoners. “They were genuinely concerned about causing harm to the butterflies,” James recalls. Witnessing the transformation of the monarch butterflies also had an impact on the prisoners. “This butterfly changed,” prisoners told James, “and maybe we can change too.” 28. What was the main challenge faced by David James in his study? A. The small population size of the butterflies. B. The lack of suitable tagging equipment. C. The difficulty in locating the butterflies’ wintering grounds. D The resistance from the prison authorities. 29. Why did James work with prisoners from Washington State Penitentiary? A. To raise awareness about the importance of monarch butterflies. B. To provide the prisoners with a new activity for mental health improvement. C. To study the behavior of monarch butterflies in a controlled environment. D. To train the prisoners in butterfly tagging techniques. 30. Why are the butterflies tagged before being released? A. To guarantee their safety. B. To enable them to fly longer distances. C. To track their travel routes. D. To distinguish them from other species. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The impact of the research. B. The findings of James’ study. C. The release of the prisoners. D. The life cycle of the butterflies. D People’s first memories are all autobiograpbical (自传式的), or memories of significant experiences in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives a phenomenon researchers have called infantile amnesia. However, research suggests that infants (婴儿) can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and tell it from the face of a stranger. A few months later, infants can show that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at the ones they see most often. But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we inst have no way to retrieve (找回) them, scientists have a few guesses. One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose with a spot of red lipstick. Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face and start to form some sense of self. Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second year of life, they can’t form descriptions about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the hippocampus, which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t fully developed in the infancy period. Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors might contribute to infantile amnesia. 32. What can infants do in their first few months? A. Recognize familiar faces. B. Remember a series of events. C. Identify their own reflections. D. Memorize their family members. 33. What does the rouge test show about babies between 18 and 24 months? A. They like looking in the mirror. B. They ignore the marks on their faces. C. They see their reflections as themselves. D. They enjoy playing with their reflections. 34. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia according to the text? A. Infants’ lack of social skills. B. Infants’ undeveloped hippocampus. C. Infants’ inability to recall memories. D. Infants’ unusual autobiographical memories, 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How do kids form their memories? B. When do babies start remembering? C. How can we retrieve lost memories? D. Why can’t we remember being a baby? 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Show Respect Whether you’re talking to your best friend or a stranger, respecting them shows that you’re kind and considerate.
