We hope this taste will encourage more people to visit beijing in the future. The exhibition runs for six months.

You can buy tickets online, and I suggest you do IT quickly as they are selling fast. I'm jack from shanghai.

Peterley Manor Farm in the Chiltern Hills has moved a long way from conventional farming. Roger Brill, a fourth-generation farmer, and his wife, Jane, took over a rundown turkey farm in 1982 and started growing and selling fruits and vegetables. Now, their 40-acre farm features a “wild spa” with outdoor ice baths, yoga in a tent, and a café in a tractor garage. Surprisingly, their farm’s produce, including Christmas trees and apple juice, makes up less than a tenth of their income last year.
“Instagram has changed everything,” according to Katy Brill, who took over the farm from her parents in 2014. Novel experiences and scenic backdrops do very well on social media platforms. Besides the spa, the farm also offers fitness camps, an outdoor cinema, and play areas for kids, all with beautiful views. They’re even planning a nature-based nursery.
Branching out has become normal for modern farmers. Nearly 70% of farms in England are exploring new business. Consumer-focused services in particular are growing fast. Social-media use and a shift towards sustainability and wellness have increased the demand for farm experiences. Farm shops are selling more than before. And farms across Britain outperformed hotels as wedding venues (地点) in 2023, according to data from Hitched, a wedding-planning website.
The decision to diversify may not be new: farmers have sought alternative income for decades. But the need has become more urgent. Farms have been under pressure by huge rises in energy costs and higher labor costs. Increasingly unpredictable weather, including record amounts of rainfall, has made harvests less reliable.
Diversification brings new opportunities for struggling farms, but adapting to consumer demands leaves them exposed to wider economic cycles. It also requires them to find workers with new skills. In one respect, though, things are not different from old-fashioned farming, “The hospitality (服务) business is extremely difficult,” says Ms Brill. “It’s hard work and long hours.”
24. What has Roger Brill’s farm been transformed into?
A. A traditional farm selling fruits. B. A farm with diversified offerings.
C. A special spa and wellness center. D. A centre providing entertainments.
25. What is the farm’s strategy under Katy Brill?
A. Enlarging children’s play areas. B. Improving farm produce quality.
C. Focusing on conventional farming. D. Stressing promotion by social media.
26. What does the underlined phrase “branching out” in Para 3 mean?
A. Narrowing. B. Extending. C. Simplifying. D. Dividing.
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. New-normal farm operations. B. Great pressure on farm owners.
C. Demanding hospitality business. D. Old-fashioned farming modes.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代农场运营呈现新趋势,Peterley Manor Farm从传统农业转型,借助社交媒体拓展业务,提供多样服务,这是农场应对压力的新常态。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Now, their 40-acre farm features a ‘wild spa’ with outdoor ice baths, yoga in a tent, and a café in a tractor garage. Surprisingly, their farm’s produce, including Christmas trees and apple juice, makes up less than a tenth of their income last year.(如今,他们 40 英亩的农场设有一个带户外冰浴的“野生水疗中心”、帐篷里的瑜伽课程,以及一个位于拖拉机车库的咖啡馆。令人惊讶的是,他们农场的农产品,包括圣诞树和苹果汁,去年占其收入的比例不到十分之一。)”可知,Roger Brill农场的农产品收入占比不高,并且提供多样化服务,由此可知,Roger Brill的农场已转变为提供多样化服务的农场,不仅仅局限于传统农业生产。故选B项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“‘Instagram has changed everything,’ according to Katy Brill, who took over the farm from her parents in 2014. Novel experiences and scenic backdrops do very well on social media platforms.(‘Instagram 改变了一切,’根据2014 年从父母手中接管农场的Katy Brill所说。新奇的体验和风景优美的背景在社交媒体平台上很受欢迎。)”可知,Katy Brill认为社交媒体对农场发展影响重大,推测Katy Brill的策略是强调通过社交媒体进行推广。故选D项。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Nearly 70% of farms in England are exploring new business. Consumer-focused services in particular are growing fast.(英格兰近70%的农场正在探索新业务。尤其是以消费者为中心的服务增长迅速。)”可知,此处介绍的是农场在拓展业务,推测branching out意思应是“拓展,扩大”,与Extending意思相近。故选B项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了像Peterley Manor Farm这样的现代农场从传统农业向多元化经营转变的情况,如提供各种体验服务等,这已成为现代农场运营的新常态。所以A项New-normal farm operations(农场运营新常态)符合文章主旨。故选A项。
C
The fascinating phenomenon of mirroring behavior, such as nodding and yawning, weaves an invisible thread that bonds us together in our daily interactions, often without our conscious awareness. This phenomenon is activated by mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains, which fire when we perform an action and when we observe someone else doing the same. Mirroring is not just a physical act; it includes verbal and emotional aspects as well.
The evolutionary (进化的) advantages of mirroring are evident in how it enabled our ancestors to learn, bond, and avoid danger. It’s a fundamental part of social cognition, crucial for child development, and varies across cultures, influencing social norms and interactions. In therapeutic (治疗) setting, mirroring is used to build trust and connection. Mirroring strengthens personal and professional relationships. It improves communication and can boost success in sales and negotiations. By slightly mirroring a customer’s body language or speech patterns, you can create a sense of harmony and agreement.
With practice, we can learn to use mirroring intentionally to build better relationships and communicate more effectively. However, it must be used with care and sincerity. Cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings if mirroring norms are not respected. What’s considered polite mirroring in one culture might be seen as disrespectful in another. It’s like trying to do the cha-cha at a square dance. There’s also the dark side of mirroring. Some people might use mirroring techniques to do bad things on purpose. It’s like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, using our natural tendency against us.
Remember, mirroring is our ability to understand and empathize (共情) with others. So go forth and use it correctly. You might just be surprised at the connections you create and the insights you gain. After all, in the grand mirror of life, we’re all just reflections of each other.
28. What is mirroring behavior?
A. It is a kind of emotional expression. B. It is unconscious tendency to imitate.
C. It is an invisible thread in our brains. D. It is a verbal action without awareness.
29. What’s the power of mirroring in therapeutic setting?

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry has recently celebrated a remarkable instance of artificial intelligence (AI) aiding humankind, particularly in the field of protein structure discovery.
Proteins, the central players in biological processes, are crucial for life’s chemical reactions, functioning as hormones, signals, antibodies, and tissue (组织) builders. They consist of amino acid chains (氨基酸序列) that fold into unique structures, controlling their interactions with other molecules (分子). But understanding their structure was a worrying task until recently.
The traditional method of X-ray crystallography, which won John Kendrew and Max Perutz the 1962 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was time-consuming. However, the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry recognized a breakthrough with the work of David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper. Their AI model, AlphaFold, makes use of neural (神经) networks to identify patterns in vast amounts of data. The system was trained on the vast information in databases of all known protein structures and amino acid chains. AlphaFold has predicted more than 200 million protein structures, covering nearly all proteins known to science.
The ability to predict protein structures is a game-changer for drug and vaccine development, as it provides insights into how proteins look and behave. AlphaFold’s predictions have already sped up biomedical research, as exemplified by the search for a malaria vaccine. AlphaFold’s accurate structure prediction of a key surface protein enabled researchers to design a vaccine, advancing the research from fundamental science to preclinical and clinical development stages.
While AI is not always correct, its capabilities are improving. The AlphaFold project is expanding to include interactions between proteins and other biomedical structures. AI’s potential risks must be addressed, but for now, AlphaFold demonstrates AI’s power to strengthen human knowledge for the betterment of society.
32. What is one of the functions of proteins?
A. Acting as antibodies. B. Folding unique tissues.
C. Signaling between molecules. D. Controlling chemical reactions.
33. What does Para 3 mainly say about AlphaFold?
A. Its complexity. B. Its development. C. Its capability. D. Its application.
34. What is the writer’s attitude towards AlphaFold?
A. Approving. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative.
35. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Impact of AI on Nobel Prize. B. The Rise of AI in Protein Research.
C. AlphaFold: A New Frontier in Vaccine. D. AlphaFold: A Game Changer in Biology.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了AI在蛋白质结构研究领域的突破与意义,尤其是AlphaFold 的作用和影响。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Proteins, the central players in biological processes, are crucial for life’s chemical reactions, functioning as hormones, signals, antibodies, and tissue builders. (蛋白质是生物过程的核心参与者,对生命的化学反应至关重要,起着激素、信号、抗体和组织构建者的作用。)”可知,蛋白质的功能之一是充当抗体,故选A项。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Their AI model, AlphaFold, makes use of neural networks to identify patterns in vast amounts of data. The system was trained on the vast information in databases of all known protein structures and amino acid chains. AlphaFold has predicted more than 200 million protein structures, covering nearly all proteins known to science. (他们的人工智能模型 AlphaFold 利用神经网络识别大量数据中的模式。该系统利用所有已知蛋白质结构和氨基酸链数据库中的大量信息进行训练。AlphaFold 已经预测了超过 2 亿种蛋白质结构,涵盖了科学已知的几乎所有蛋白质。)”可知,本段主要讲述了AlphaFold的强大能力。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“While AI is not always correct, its capabilities are improving. The AlphaFold project is expanding to include interactions between proteins and other biomedical structures. AI’s potential risks must be addressed, but for now, AlphaFold demonstrates AI’s power to strengthen human knowledge for the betterment of society. (虽然人工智能并不总是正确的,但它的能力正在提高。AlphaFold项目正在扩展到包括蛋白质和其他生物医学结构之间的相互作用。人工智能的潜在风险必须得到解决,但就目前而言,AlphaFold展示了人工智能增强人类知识以改善社会的力量。)”可知,作者认为 AlphaFold有积极作用,对其持认可态度。故选A项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文特别是第三段“Their AI model, AlphaFold, makes use of neural networks to identify patterns in vast amounts of data.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Once upon a time in a small village in ancient China, there lived a young man named Kuang Heng. He had a great thirst for knowledge, but his family was too poor to afford a lamp for him to study at night.
One evening, as he sat in the dark, he noticed a faint glow of light seeping through a crack in the wall, which came from the lamp of his neighbor. Kuang Heng’s eyes lit up with an idea. He carefully dug a small hole in the wall, just large enough to let in a beam of light. From that day forward, Kuang Heng would huddle by the hole in the wall, using the stolen light to read his books and study late into the night. In this way, he taught himself many ancient classic books.
The story of Kuang Heng has been passed down through generations, reminding us all that where there is a will, there is always a way to overcome obstacles and achieve our goals.

Peterley Manor Farm in the Chiltern Hills has moved a long way from conventional farming. Roger Brill, a fourth-generation farmer, and his wife, Jane, took over a rundown turkey farm in 1982 and started growing and selling fruits and vegetables. Now, their 40-acre farm features a “wild spa” with outdoor ice baths, yoga in a tent, and a café in a tractor garage. Surprisingly, their farm’s produce, including Christmas trees and apple juice, makes up less than a tenth of their income last year.
“Instagram has changed everything,” according to Katy Brill, who took over the farm from her parents in 2014. Novel experiences and scenic backdrops do very well on social media platforms. Besides the spa, the farm also offers fitness camps, an outdoor cinema, and play areas for kids, all with beautiful views. They’re even planning a nature-based nursery.
Branching out has become normal for modern farmers. Nearly 70% of farms in England are exploring new business. Consumer-focused services in particular are growing fast. Social-media use and a shift towards sustainability and wellness have increased the demand for farm experiences. Farm shops are selling more than before. And farms across Britain outperformed hotels as wedding venues (地点) in 2023, according to data from Hitched, a wedding-planning website.
The decision to diversify may not be new: farmers have sought alternative income for decades. But the need has become more urgent. Farms have been under pressure by huge rises in energy costs and higher labor costs. Increasingly unpredictable weather including record amounts of rainfall, has made harvests less reliable.
Diversification brings new opportunities for struggling farms, but adapting to consumer demands leaves them exposed to wider economic cycles. It also requires them to find workers with new skills. In one respect, though, things are not different from old-fashioned farming, “The hospitality (服务) business is extremely difficult,” says Ms Brill. “It’s hard work and long hours.”
24. What has Roger Brill’s farm been transformed into?
A A traditional farm selling fruits. B. A farm with diversified offerings.
C. A special spa and wellness center. D. A centre providing entertainments.
25. What is the farm’s strategy under Katy Brill?
A. Enlarging children’s play areas. B. Improving farm produce quality.
C. Focusing on conventional farming. D. Stressing promotion by social media.
26. What does the underlined phrase “branching out” in Para 3 mean?
A. Narrowing. B. Extending. C. Simplifying. D. Dividing.
27. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. New-normal farm operations. B. Great pressure on farm owners.
C. Demanding hospitality business. D. Old-fashioned farming modes.
C
The fascinating phenomenon of mirroring behavior, such as nodding and yawning, weaves an invisible thread that bonds us together in our daily interactions, often without our conscious awareness. This phenomenon is activated by mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains, which fire when we perform an action and when we observe someone else doing the same. Mirroring is not just a physical act; it includes verbal and emotional aspects as well.
The evolutionary (进化的) advantages of mirroring are evident in how it enabled our ancestors to learn, bond, and avoid danger. It’s a fundamental part of social cognition, crucial for child development, and varies across cultures, influencing social norms and interactions. In therapeutic (治疗) setting, mirroring is used to build trust and connection. Mirroring strengthens personal and professional relationships. It improves communication and can boost success in sales and negotiations. By slightly mirroring a customer’s body language or speech patterns, you can create a sense of harmony and agreement.
With practice, we can learn to use mirroring intentionally to build better relationships and communicate more effectively. However, it must be used with care and sincerity. Cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings if mirroring norms are not respected. What’s considered polite mirroring in one culture might be seen as disrespectful in another. It’s like trying to do the cha-cha at a square dance. There’s also the dark side of mirroring. Some people might use mirroring techniques to do bad things on purpose. It’s like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, using our natural tendency against us.
Remember, mirroring is our ability to understand and empathize (共情) with others. So go forth and use it correctly. You might just be surprised at the connections you create and the insights you gain. After all, in the grand mirror of life, we’re all just reflections of each other.
28. What is mirroring behavior?
A. It is a kind of emotional expression. B. It is unconscious tendency to imitate.
C. It is an invisible thread in our brains. D. It is a verbal action without awareness.
29. What’s the power of mirroring in therapeutic setting?
A. Ensuring survival. B. Boosting success.
C. Promoting trust. D. Influencing culture.
30. What can we infer about mirroring from the underlined in Para. 3?
A. It might go wrong due to cultural differences.
B. It might be used intentionally for evil purpose.
C. It can help people communicate more smoothly.
D. It can deepen understanding of diverse cultures.
31. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph?
A. Showing insights into life. B. Reflecting carefully.
C. Understanding others. D. Mirroring mindfully.
D
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry has recently celebrated a remarkable instance of artificial intelligence (AI) aiding humankind, particularly in the field of protein structure discovery.
Proteins, the central players in biological processes, are crucial for life’s chemical reactions, functioning as hormones, signals, antibodies, and tissue (组织) builders. They consist of amino acid chains (氨基酸序列) that fold into unique structures, controlling their interactions with other molecules (分子). But understanding their structure was a worrying task until recently.
The traditional method of X-ray crystallography, which won John Kendrew and Max Perutz the 1962 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, was time-consuming. However, the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry recognized a breakthrough with the work of David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper. Their AI model, AlphaFold, makes use of neural (神经) networks to identify patterns in vast amounts of data. The system was trained on the vast information in databases of all known protein structures and amino acid chains. AlphaFold has predicted more than 200 million protein structures, covering nearly all proteins known to science.
The ability to predict protein structures is a game-changer for drug and vaccine development, as it provides insights into how proteins look and behave. AlphaFold’s predictions have already sped up biomedical research, as exemplified by the search for a malaria vaccine. AlphaFold’s accurate structure prediction of a key surface protein enabled researchers to design a vaccine, advancing the research from fundamental science to preclinical and clinical development stages.
While AI is not always correct, its capabilities are improving. The AlphaFold project is expanding to include interactions between proteins and other biomedical structures. AI’s potential risks must be addressed, but for now, AlphaFold demonstrates AI’s power to strengthen human knowledge for the betterment of society.
32. What is one of the functions of proteins?
A. Acting as antibodies. B. Folding unique tissues.
C. Signaling between molecules. D. Controlling chemical reactions.
33. What does Para 3 mainly say about AlphaFold?
A. Its complexity. B. Its development. C. Its capability. D. Its application.
34. What is the writer’s attitude towards AlphaFold?
A. Approving. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative.
35. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Impact of AI on Nobel Prize. B. The Rise of AI in Protein Research.
C. AlphaFold: A New Frontier in Vaccine. D. AlphaFold: A Game Changer in Biology.
