Roadkill is a common sight when driving down most highways and sometimes also on roadways in cities. It refers to animals being hit by cars or other vehicles by accident. A study in 2023 measured, for the first time, the damage China’s fast-developing road network is having on animals in city areas. Before, research in China had focused on roadkill in nature reserves. Li Zhongqiu and his team from Nanjing University’s School of Life Sciences looked at the problem in cities, where roadkill could have an even larger influence. ① They chose Nanjing as the study subject, with more than 9,700 kilometers of paved roads (铺好的路). Nine roads, including three national highways, over 224 kilometers in all, were watched every two weeks for a year. ② Birds were nearly half the total, making them the most common group to roadkill. Cats, dogs and blackbirds were also commonly killed animals. There were usually a large number of blackbirds in East China, and they could be attracted by flies or other insects, leading to further accidents. ③ Roadkill incidents are more likely to happen in November and January, the team found. This may be because some warm-blooded animals have to go out and search for food when food is harder to find at this time. ④ “Roadkill has led to the decline (下降) of animal populations in cities and must be taken seriously,” Li said. The researchers also call on policymakers to put forward related traffic and animal protection rules, such as speed limits and traffic controls. 34. What is the focus of the study conducted by Li Zhongqiu and his team? A. Damage caused by building highways. B. Roadkill in city areas. C. Roadkill in nature reserves. D. Animal populations in cities. 35. Why were blackbirds a common roadkill animal in East China? A. They liked to wander into traffic. B. They couldn’t fly high enough in the sky. C. They had to search for food on roads. D. They could be attracted onto roads by insects. 36. What do the researchers suggest doing to reduce roadkill in cities? A. Increasing the number of traffic lights in the countryside areas. B. Setting speed limits and controlling traffic in cities. C. Sending some animals back to nature reserves. D. Improving road conditions in cities. 37. In which of the following can this sentence “The team recorded a total of 293 roadkill cases.” be put? A. ①. B. ②. C. ③. D. ④. C (Ned, Conceil and I were taken to the ship. Captain Nemo showed us around. He led us into a room as a museum with a great deal of collection and then took us to the library and the gallery (画廊).) Captain Nemo was very proud of his collection and the ship—the Nautilus. Then, he took me to my cabin (房舱). It was a very comfortable bedroom and was next to his cabin. His cabin had an instrument panel (仪表板), and on this he could see everything that he needed to know to sail the Nautilus. He told me that he had found a way to make electricity using salt and mercury (汞). This electricity gave the Nautilus all the power it needed to move through the water. Huge pumps (泵) filled and emptied tanks of air and water to make the Nautilus sink or rise. I was surprised to find that the Nautilus even had a small dinghy (小艇). Captain Nemo could enter the dinghy from the Nautilus while it was underwater and go to the surface. Then, the Nautilus would come up to collect him. As we walked to the engine room (发动机舱), we passed the large kitchen and crew (船员) room. The door of the crew room was closed, so I could not see how many men were asked to work on the Nautilus. Captain Nemo showed me the engine and explained how it worked. It was difficult to understand how the tanks, rudders and batteries worked. However, I had to believe it because the engine was working! The Nautilus was seventy meters long and eight meters wide. It had a cylindrical (圆柱形的) shape with points on each end and weighed 1,500tons. A pilot sat in a small room with strong windows, and a powerful electric light showed him where he was going. “It’s a wonderful ship!” I exclaimed. “I love it as if it were my child.” he replied. “How did you build it in secret?” I asked. “All the parts were made in different countries. I used different names each time I placed an order. I took all the parts to a desert island, and my workmen put them together. Then, we burned our workshops.” “It must have cost a great deal of money!” I exclaimed again. “Millions of dollars,” he replied. “However, I have billions.” Taken from Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea 38. What can we learn about the Nautilus? A. It had a lot of rooms with many treasures in them. B. It was too large for Captain Nemo to know how to sail. C. Everyone knew that Captain Nemo built it on a desert island. D. It could sail not only on the surface of the sea but under the water. 39. What does the underlined word “exclaimed” mean in Paragraph 4? A. cried suddenly in pain B. said suddenly and loudly in surprise C. spoke in a low voice because of sadness D. shouted in a loud voice because of anger 40. Which is the correct order of the story? ① Captain Nemo told us how he made electricity. ② All the parts of the ship were put together on an island. ③ Captain Nemo took Ned, Conceil and I to the Nautilus. ④ We realized how great the ship was. A. ③④①② B. ①③④② C. ②④③① D. ②③①④ 41. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. Captain Nemo had so much money. B. “I” was excited to visit the Nautilus. C. The Nautilus could sail under the water. D. The Nautilus was a great ship that Captain Nemo was proud of. D In December 2024, the United Nations (UN) took an important step. They carried out an emergency plan after an asteroid (小行星) named 2024 YR4 was found to be on its way to crash into Earth. Although there’s no immediate risk for now, scientists worry it could be a threat to humans in less than a decade. The UN’s Planetary Security Protocol (《行星安全协议》) was started for the first time, which was after a warning from the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Island in Spain. Later, scientists estimated (估算) that 2024 YR4 could hit our planet on December 22, 2032. However, there’s no need to scare. Asteroids are common as the Earth moves around the sun, but most of them are too small to cause problems. It doesn’t mean, however, there were no horrible events in the past. One such event happened 66 million years ago. With at least 10 kilometers long, Asteroid Chicxulub, destroyed 75 percent of all species on Earth, including dinosaurs. The brightness of 2024 YR4 helped scientists estimate its size at between 40 and 100 meters wide. Also, its route around the sun shows that it will miss Earth. Moreover, now studies show objects like Chicxulub only hit Earth about every 50 million years or so. How 2024 YR4 will affect us depends on what it’s made of. If it turns out to be just rock, which is the most likely case, it will get destroyed in the atmosphere and send down a shockwave (冲击波). If it’s made of metal, which is less possible, it might make it through the atmosphere for a direct crash. It might sound scary but we are monitoring the situation. In just the past few years, we have discovered 11 asteroids. Everything went well because we knew where they would hit. We are also learning to change the direction of dangerous asteroids, as the DART mission shows. Sent up in November 2021 by NASA, the mission stopped an asteroid from getting near the Earth in September 2022. 42. Why was the UN’s Planetary Security Protocol started last December? A. To develop new technology for discovering asteroids. B To encourage countries to work closely in space exploration. C. To prepare for a possible asteroid crash. D. To warn people about the dangers of asteroids. 43. What do we know about the asteroid 2024 YR4? A. It is made of metal. B. It was discovered by accident. C. It is less likely to hit Earth. D. It is larger than Chicxulub. 44. What does the DART mission show? A. We can predict asteroid crash. B. We can change an asteroid’s direction. C. We can destroy asteroids in the atmosphere. D. We can prevent asteroids from forming. 45. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude towards 2024 YR4? A. Anxious. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Scared. 第Ⅱ卷（60分） 四、词汇运用（共10小题; 每小题1分, 计10分, 每空一词） 46. Ne Zha 2 is a big success and the ________ (proud) of China’s film industry. 47 The cookie is much ________ (taste) than I imagined. 48.

In the play Shakespeare not only speaks highly of love and friendship, but also mirrors the social background of that time. Antonio had a friend named Bassanio who spent money without limitation. As a result, he ran out of his wealth soon. Bassanio fell in love with Portia, but he was required to pay a large amount of money. So he went to Antonio for help. Antonio is a wealthy merchant but he didn’t have so much cash. Antonio went to Shylock, a moneylender, for help. Having been scolded (责备) by Antonio for being cruel and greedy, Shylock hated him. However, he agreed to lend him the money only if Antonio would allow him to take a pound of his flesh when he could not repay him within three months. At last Antonio agreed to the contract. But unluckily, Antonio lost all his ships at sea. He was not able to pay back to Shylock, and the Jew went to court of Venice to carry out his deal. To save Antonio’s life, Portia dressed up as a famous lawyer. According to the contract, she agreed to Shylock’s request, but insisted a pound of meat must be cut by just a pound of flesh, no more and no less. At the same time, he was not allowed to let any of Antonio’s blood drop. The wise judge announced that according to the law if anyone tried to kill a citizen of Venice, everything he owned should be taken away. Shylock would rather die if all his money and goods were taken away. Finally, Antonio gave up his part of Shylock’s money on condition that Shylock should leave the money to his own daughter upon his death.
