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) inBritain, 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(喙). The Cairngorms National Park The Cairngorms National Park is in northeast Scotland. With an area of about 1,750square miles, the park covers the Cairngorms range of mountains and surrounding hills, and is the largest national park in the UK as the second national park in Scotland. Over 25% of theUK'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. 21. Which park is connected with the creation of a piece of music? A. The Isle of Staffa. B. The Cairngorms National Park. C. The North York Moors National Park. D. Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. 22. What do we know about the Cairngorms National Park? A. It is in southeast Scotland. B. It is home to UK's red squirrel. C. It is the only place to find the red deer. D. It is the largest national park in Scotland. 23. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To raise awareness of protecting wildlife in Scotland. B. To give advice on how to spend holidays in Scotland. C. To introduce some places to see wildlife in Scotland. D. To compare some breathtaking scenic spots in Scotland. B Cathy Brennan calmly paddled her bright yellow kayak(皮艇) down the Potomac River,continuing her voyage, the latest of her solo trips on major waterways. It was tough, but it allowed Brennan to let go of everything else, empty her brain of the everyday chores and focus on the present. “I'm in the moment, looking at the waves,” said Brennan.The journey is a minimalist style: a sleeping bag,a small tent, a rain jacket, a change of clothes, a first aid hit, apples and cheese sticks. “I always drink the river,” she says. Brennan loves being on the rivers, seeing the eagles above, deer on the banks and a fascinating bunch of bugs and insects that never find their way into homes. However, every few days Brennan will find a hotel for the night where she can get a shower and at a chceseburger. She` ll also check in with her husband John, who has helped her select the river and research the trips at their home. “He's my virtual Sherpa with benefits,”Brennan says, laughing. She has a phone with her but seldom calls or texts anyone. Her children usually keep track of her via the transponder(应答器) that sends them her location every 10 minutes or so. Brennan knows that solo kayaking is not for everyone and she's not reckless. When going through rapids(急流), she watches the weather in advance. She is careful about where she camps and who is around her. She has packed up her equipment and headed back out on the river when she has felt unsafe. She is alone on these journeys but she isn't lonely. She suggested that we all need some disconnection from the wired world to find the wider world around us. 24. What can be inferred from Paragraph 1? A. She seeks inner peace. B. She looks forward to the future. C. She longs for travelling. D. She enjoys everyday housework. 25. What do we know about Brennan's husband? A. He keeps track of her. B. He plans the route for her. C. He travels with her on the river. D. He contacts her via calls and texts. 26. What does the underlined word“reckless” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Fearless. B. Generous. C. Brave. D. Thoughtless. 27. How is Brennan's kayak trip according to the passage? A. Lonely but interesting. B. Difficult and boring. C. Tough but worthwhile. D. Dangerous and expensive. C When you see someone take the first sip of freshly-made milk tea, their face looks like pure joy. Today, millions of people enjoy this experience. Across the world, customers flock to their favorite spots to meet with friends and savor(细品) these tasty drinks. In the early 2000s, though, milk tea was just coming on the scene. The few brands that had successfully established themselves in the industry were dearly concerned: Would milk tea just be another fashion food? Sure, people are enjoying it today, but would they still be in a year, or five years? And with so much new excitement for this product, would people be able to distinguish milk tea companies? These are the questions that Serenitea, a milk tea company,faced in 2014. While successfully opening 60 stores, they found themselves in a strategic fog,which led them to research into the deep, unexplored psychology of milk tea. Like Airbnb, Serenite a partnered with an agency, CIA Bootleg Manila(CBM) which specializes in finding out deep consumer insights. The agency adopted a series of intensive,psychological-based techniques in their market research. Specifically, they explore the consumers’ deeper, emotional connections to milk tea, including their earliest childhood memories of milk and tea. What they found was that milk tea was a complex topic. Their research revealed that milk tea produced three consistent psychological responses. First, people were connected to milk through the concept of nurture(营养); they fondly remembered their childhood and being cared for by their mothers. Next, consumers connected tea to its healing properties. They would recall receiving tea when they had a stomachache or seeing their parents drinking herbal tea for health reasons. Lastly, they associated milk tea itself with teenage fun:a guilty pleasure of their youth. They had uncovered three psychological cornerstones(基石) of the milk tea experience:nurture, healing, and teenage fun. This set of insights was important. By taking these factors into consideration, milk tea brands could make a plan of an entirely new path. 28. What was Serenitea's concern in the early 2000s? A. Whether milk tea would become too expensive. B. Whether milk tea would lose its flavor over time. C. Whether milk tea would attract too many competitors. D. Whether milk tea would remain popular in the long term. 29. What does CBM find about milk tea? A. Milk tea is welcomed by parents. B. Milk tea is associated with teenage fun. C. Milk tea does harm to our mental health. D. Milk tea has no healing effect on consumers. 30. What could brands do to make a new path? A. Pay more attention to the package. B. Locate more stores in the big cities. C. Offer as many new flavors as possible. D. Focus on milk tea's psychological value. 31. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Revealing Milk Tea Psychology B. How to Make Milk Tea Popular C. Sharing the Pure Joy of Milk Tea D. A New Method to Business Success D A dog can be a person's best friend, or so the theory goes. But that relationship can be tested when a dog begins barking at an empty corner of a room, at a door, or anywhere where there doesn't appear to be any activity at all taking place. Is it communication with invisible beings? Or does it simply want to drive its owner crazy? According to the American Kennel Club(AKC), the most common explanation for dogs'barking without reasons is that it's not really voluntary at all. Dogs are, obviously, equipped with superior hearing including the ability to detect sounds that are higher in pitch(音高). It is said that a dog could be reacting to a noise that a persoH wotfidn't be able to hear. If a dog barks seemingly for no apparent reason at night, it might because the Holse nearby is lessened and barks of other dogs become more clearly. Because dogs w带 protect their own area, one dog barking can turn into many others to guard themselves. Dogs are also able to see better in the dark than humans thanks to their ability to get more light into their retinas (视网膜). If a dog is reacting to what looks like an empty backyard at night, it's possible that something has caught their attention, be it a wild animal, a leaf, or a stranger. That's not to say that dogs only bark because of their acute (敏锐的) senses. Some dogs might bark out of boredom in which case more exercise or play time is probably needed. They might also be trying to get their owner's attention. The AKC recommends that owners avoid speaking angrily to their dogs for barking.Instead, owners can try calming the dogs to let them know they' re aware of their concern. If they tend to bark while looking out of a window, owners can also try to pull the curtains. Less often, continual barking might be a sign of cognitive issues. If barking is persistent and no criminal is hiding out in your bushes, then you might consider a trip to the vet. 32. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. Dogs have the awareness of their own area. B. Dogs are not as sensitive to sound as humans. C. The surrounding noise will make a dog frightened. D. A dog barks in order to make friends with other dogs. 33. According to the passage, which factors won't make dogs bark at nothing? A. Its boredom. B. Its acute hearing. C. Its madness. D. Its good sight. 34. What should the owner do with the dog's barking according to AKC? A. Leaving it alone. B. Criticizing it seriously. C. Comforting it. D. Train it patiently. 35. Where is this passage probably taken from? A. A brochure. B. A novel C. A story. D. A report. 第二节 (共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 Last summer over 12,000 fans were at Wembley Arena in London, shouting and cheering.Thousands more were watching online. 36 It was esports, or competitive computer gaming.Millions of people in the UK play computer games for fun. Some of them have become professional games, playing games as their full-time job. 37 They practice for ten or more hours a day, five or six days a week. They do exercises like typing something and trying to type it faster and faster. They also study videos of other players and plan ways to beat them. 38 Are players athletes? Some say no. Esports players don't need to run, jump,throw or do big physical actions. At the moment, the UK government classifies esports as kinds of games, not as sports. But others say yes: esports are sports. Players do need some physical skills, especially hand-eye coordination, reflexes, accuracy and timing. If darts, snooker and shooting are classified as sports, then perhaps esports should be too. 39 And they will be an official medal sport in the Asian Games starting from 2022. Next step: the Olympics? For many esports fans and players, though, the most important thing is that esports are growing in popularity and importance. 40 A. But are esports really sports? B. Put simply, esports is competitive level gaming. C. It's not easy being a professional gamer, though. D. But this wasn't a football, basketball or tennis match. E. It is certain that esports will come into the 2028 Olympics. F. In fact, China and R. O. Korea do classify esports as sports. G. If esports are not as important as sports now, they definitely will be in the near future. 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共四节，满分45分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题，每小题1分，共15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A，B，C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Once upon a time, in a busy city, there lived a young girl named Linda.

Following that, we watched documentari es showcasing the efforts of communities to preserve their native languages.

Not only did the campaign enlighten us but it also added a new urgency to the language protection. Wish all languages could have a promising future. 听力文本 Text 1: W: Hey, Bill.
