UNESCO’s World Heritage List has been updated for 2024. Europe’s newest additions some of the continent’s lesser-known yet culturally significant sites — are well worth exploring.
Via Appia, Italy
Also known as “the Queen of roads”, this 500-mile stretch is the oldest Roman road. It connects the Italian capital to Southern Italy’s seaports and speeds the growth and development of new settlements while driving agricultural production and trade. Journeying up this road is a transportation through time with the original paving stones reminding us of Italy’s old times.
Schwerin Residence Ensemble (建筑群) Germany
A picture-perfect image of traditional German architecture surrounded by Lake Schwerin, this cultural ensemble comprises 38 of Schwerin’s most striking landscapes and architecture. The architecture of Schwerin captures the essence of 19th-century Germany with its public gardens and cultural buildings tied together by the grand Schwerin Castle.
The Flow Country, Scotland
In Scotland lies one of the world’s most untouched blanket bog (沼泽) landscapes. With around 500,000 acres of bog pools and ancient plants, The Flow Country is one of the world’s biggest carbon stores, crucial in the fight against climate change. On foot is how you can experience the dramatic views of this lesser-known landscape and diverse wildlife species closely.
Moravian Church Settlements, Germany and UK
Gracehill was a village in Northern Ireland founded by the Moravians in 1759. Guided tours of Gracehill Old School and the Moravian Church offer visual insights into traditional, Moravian architecture. In Germany, the living Moravian heritage can be felt in the museums and church halls of Herrnhut, the birthplace of the Moravian Church.

Feifei Li’s journey from a teenager in China to a leading figure in artificial intelligence is nothing short of remarkable.
Born in Beijing in 1976, Li grew up in Chengdu. Her life took a dramatic turn when her family moved to America. Initially, the family didn’t speak English, so the burden of translation fell on Li. She credited kind teachers at her new high school for helping her overcome challenges, as she developed language skills and regained her academic excellence. Outside school, she worked tirelessly in low-paying jobs to support her family. During this period, she felt like an outsider with few friends, suffering from isolation(孤独).
Despite these hardships, she was accepted into Princeton to study physics. In 1999, Li graduated with honors, before going on to complete her Ph.D. and eventually joining Princeton’s computer science department as an assistant professor.
At Princeton, Li began to pioneer ImageNet, a large-scale image database in visual object recognition software. Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet, which involved a massive labeling effort for over three million images. Instead of getting support within the Princeton department, she outsourced(外包) the task to the Internet, using an Amazon’s program to force the job out to remote workers around the globe. Before long ImageNet was completed, and it has subsequently had an enormous impact on the development of artificial intelligence. The database has now grown to over fourteen million images, and is a fundamental part of countless AI applications, like self-driving car technology.
Beyond her technical contributions, Li is a faithful advocate for moral AI development. She founded the Human-Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. Moreover, Li’s influence extends to promoting diversity in AI, through initiatives like AI4ALL, which educates historically excluded talents in the field. Her devotion to AI development earns her the name of “the Godmother of AI”.
4. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Li’s pursuit of further excellence
B. Li’s struggles in the new life.
C. Li’s efforts in balancing studies and work.
D. Li’s gratitude to her teachers.
5. What is special about ImageNet?
A. It recognizes a single object at a time.
B. It produces a huge number of images.
C. It automates image-recognition process.
D. It features extensive image recognition.
6. Why does the author mention the Human-Centered AI Institute?
A. To praise Li’s outstanding technical competence.
B. To highlight Li’s status in the AI research field.
C. To demonstrate Li’s devotion to moral AI development.
D To emphasize Li’s influence on advancing diversity in AI.
7. Which of the following best describes Li?
A. Creative and caring. B. Ambitious and sensitive.
C. Cautious and patriotic. D. Conventional and determined.
C
It is generally acknowledged that young people from poorer socio-economic backgrounds tend to do less well in the education system. In an attempt to help the children of poor families, a nationwide program called “Headstart” was started in the US in 1965. A lot of money was poured into it. It took children into pre-school institutions at the age of three and was supposed to help them succeed in school. But the results have been disappointing , because the program began too late. Many children who entered it at three were already behind their peers in language and intelligence and the parents were not involved in the process. At the end of each day, “Headstart” children returned to the same disadvantaged home environment.
To improve the results, another program was started in Missouri that concentrated on parents as the child,s first teachers. This program was based on research showing that working with the family is the most effective way of helping children get the best possible start in life. The four-year study included 380 families who were about to have their first child and represented different social-economic status, age and family structure. The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.
At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.
The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.
8. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?
A. The large number of poor families.
B. The disapproval from children.
C. The late start of the program.
D. The long period of time.
9. What do we know about the “Missouri” program ?
A. It focused on the children,s first school teachers.
B. It helped the children return to the same home.
C. It made the children improved in many aspects.
D. It gave the parents advice on their development.
10. According to the passage, what is likely to influence children,s performance ?
A. The number of family members. B. The parent-child communication.
C. The intelligence of their parents. D. The teacher-student relationship.
11. How does the author develop the passage ?
A. By listing figures. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. By drawing conclusions.
D
The mission is simple. Arrive on foreign soil, fit in and wait. Then, when the time is right, emerge from the shadows and take over. This procedure, familiar from spy fiction as the preserve of sleeper agents, is also the strategy of certain invasive plant species.
Invasive species that stay put, known as sleeper species, are not hard-wired to do so. Their natural tendency to expand is, instead, held back by some external factor. With the climate rapidly changing, Bethany Bradley at the University of Massachusetts wondered whether alterations in temperature and rainfall had the potential to activate some sleeper species. As she reports in a paper in Biological Inuvasions, the answer is a definitive yes.
Dr Bradley and her team came to their conclusions by studying 1,795 plant species in north-eastern America identifiable as foreign but not yet locally listed as invasive. Of these, 169 were unquestionably demonstrating invasive behaviour in other parts of the world, and causing damage to their environment. That suggested they had the capacity to cause similar damage in America too.
To determine whether the conditions coming to the region would activate any of the set 169, the researchers first identified the conditions under which these species would thrive (旺盛). A number of the plants on their list were held back by the cold winters that are less and less common in the region. They also found that some other species required more rainfall than is typical.
According to the team’s findings, climate change is on track to awaken 18 sleeper species that could cause serious environmental and economic problems. Dr Bradley estimates that they will start to make themselves felt between 2040 and 2060 if something is not done soon.
The most practical course of action, in her view, is to seek these sleeper species out before they are able to spread. Removing them today may be expensive, but it will be far cheaper than trying to weed them out tomorrow.
12. What strategy do sleeper species employ?
A. Rapidly expanding in new environments.
B. Patiently waiting for human intervention.
C. Remaining inactive until conditions are favorable.
D. Avoiding detection by staying in shadowy-corners.
13. What does the underlined word “hard-wired” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Slowly adapted.
B. Solidly supported.
C. Externally influenced.
D. Naturally programmed.
14. What did researchers aim to uncover by focusing on the 169 species?
A. The potential risks they could pose in the future.
B. Their invasive behavior in other parts of the world.
C. The reasons why they failed to survive in America.
D. Possible ways to make them less common in America.
15. What’s Dr Bradley’s suggestion for dealing with sleeper species?
A. Let nature take its course.
B. Prevention is better than cure.
C. Cutting budgets is a top priority.
D. Delay action until it’s necessary.

47. 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。
After flying all night, I was tired as I arrived in Denver to hold an event on positive thinking. As I entered the lecture hall, Dr. Fred Vogt asked me, “Do you know about the Make-A-Wish Foundation?” “Yes,” I replied. “Well, a 17-year-old girl Amy Graham has been diagnosed as having terminal (晚期的) cancer. Doctors gave her three days. Her dying wish was to attend your lecture.”
I was shocked. I felt a combination of awe and doubt. I couldn’t believe it. I thought kids who were dying would want to go see Disneyland, or suchlike. Why would a kid with only a few days to live want to spend their final days listening to a motivational speaker? Suddenly my thoughts were interrupted…
“Here’s Amy.” Before me stood a girl wearing a bright red hat to cover her head which was bald from all of the treatments. Her weak body was a bit bent. She said, “My two goals were to graduate from high school and to attend your lecture. My doctors didn’t believe I could do either and they didn’t think I’d have enough energy. I have to rely on my parents now.”
Tears welled in my eyes; I was choked up. My mind was being shaken. I cleared my throat and smiled, “Thanks for wanting to come.” We hugged, wiped our eyes and separated.
That Sunday afternoon I held the workshop that Amy and her parents attended. The audience was packed to overflowing with over a thousand attendees eager to learn, grow and become more fully human. I humbly asked the audience if they wanted to learn a healing process that might serve them for life. From the stage it appeared that everyone’s hand was raised high in the air. I taught the audience how to vigorously (用力地) rub their hands together, separate them by two inches and feel the healing energy. Then I paired them off with a partner to feel the healing energy from themselves to another, explaining that everyone had healing potential to support others.
注意:
1. 续写短文词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
At that point an idea struck me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With a round of applause, Amy’s dad led her off the stage.

【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Born in Beijing in 1976, Li grew up in Chengdu. Her life took a dramatic turn when her family moved to America. Initially, the family didn’t speak English, so the burden of translation fell on Li. She credited kind teachers at her new high school for helping her overcome challenges, as she developed language skills and regained her academic excellence. Outside school, she worked tirelessly in low-paying jobs to support her family. During this period, she felt like an outsider with few friends, suffering from isolation(孤独).(1976年出生于北京,李飞飞在成都长大。当她的家人搬到美国后,她的生活发生了戏剧性的转变。起初,家人不会说英语,所以翻译的重担落在了李的身上。她感谢新高中的善良老师帮助她克服了挑战,帮助她提高了语言技能,恢复了学业上的优异成绩。在校外,她不知疲倦地做着低薪的工作来养家。在这段时间里,她觉得自己像个外人,朋友很少,很孤独)” 可知,该段主要讲述了李飞飞在新生活中所经历的挣扎。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“At Princeton, Li began to pioneer ImageNet, a large-scale image database in visual object recognition software. Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet, which involved a massive labeling effort for over three million images.(在普林斯顿大学,李开始率先开发ImageNet,这是一种用于视觉对象识别软件的大规模图像数据库。她对同龄人训练计算机一次识别一张图像的低效方法感到沮丧,于是她根据儿童的视觉学习方法向计算机介绍了大量物体。这导致了ImageNet的创建,这涉及到对超过300万张图像进行大量标记的工作)”及“ The database has now grown to over fourteen million images, and is a fundamental part of countless AI applications, like self-driving car technology.(该数据库现在已经发展到超过1400万张图像,是无数人工智能应用的基础部分,比如自动驾驶汽车技术)”可知,ImageNet的特别之处在于它具有广泛的图像识别功能。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Beyond her technical contributions, Li is a faithful advocate for moral AI development. She founded the Human-Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition.(除了她的技术贡献,李还是道德人工智能发展的忠实倡导者。她创立了以人为中心的人工智能研究所,以推进改善人类状况的人工智能研究)”可推知,作者提到该研究所是为了证明李飞飞对道德人工智能发展的贡献。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Frustrated by her peers’ inefficient approach of training computers to recognize one image at a time, she introduced computers to a vast number of objects based on children’s visual learning methods. This led to the creation of ImageNet(由于对同龄人一次训练计算机识别一张图像的低效方法感到沮丧,她根据儿童的视觉学习方法让计算机接触大量的物体。这导致了ImageNet的创建)” 可知,李飞飞不满足于传统的方法,通过创新的方式创建了ImageNet,体现了她的创造性(Creative)。再根据第五段“She founded the Human-Centered AI Institute to advance AI research that improves the human condition. Moreover, Li’s influence extends to promoting diversity in AI, through initiatives like AI4ALL, which educates historically excluded talents in the field(她创立了以人为中心的人工智能研究所,以推进改善人类状况的人工智能研究。此外,李的影响力还延伸到通过 AI4ALL 等倡议促进人工智能领域的多样性,该倡议教育该领域历来被排除在外的人才)”,可以看出李飞飞关心人类和人工智能领域的发展,致力于让人工智能造福人类,推动行业的多元化,这体现了她的关爱他人、有爱心(Caring)的品质。 选项 A(有创造力和有爱心的)符合对她的描述,故选A。
C

The program involved trained educators visiting and working with the parent or parents and the child. The program also gave the parents some guidance, and useful skills on child development.
At three, the children involved in the “Missouri” program were evaluated with the children selected from the same socio-economic background and family situations. The results were obvious. The children in the program were more advanced in language development, problem solving and other intellectual skills than their peers. They performed equally well regardless of socio-economic backgrounds or family structure. The one factor that was found to affect the child,s development was the poor quality of parent-child interaction. That interaction was not necessarily bad in poorer families.
The “Missouri” program compares quite distinctly with the “Headstart” program. Without a similar focus on parent education and on the vital importance of the first three years, some evidence indicates that it will not be enough to overcome educational unfairness.
8. What caused the failure of the “Headstart” program ?
A. The large number of poor families.
B. The disapproval from children.
C. The late start of the program.
D. The long period of time.
9. What do we know about the “Missouri” program ?
A. It focused on the children,s first school teachers.
B. It helped the children return to the same home.
C. It made the children improved in many aspects.
D. It gave the parents advice on their development.
10. According to the passage, what is likely to influence children,s performance ?
A. The number of family members. B. The parent-child communication.
C. The intelligence of their parents. D. The teacher-student relationship.
11. How does the author develop the passage ?
A. By listing figures. B. By making comparisons.
C. By giving examples. D. By drawing conclusions.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. B 11. B

D
The mission is simple. Arrive on foreign soil, fit in and wait. Then, when the time is right, emerge from the shadows and take over. This procedure, familiar from spy fiction as the preserve of sleeper agents, is also the strategy of certain invasive plant species.
Invasive species that stay put, known as sleeper species, are not hard-wired to do so. Their natural tendency to expand is, instead, held back by some external factor. With the climate rapidly changing, Bethany Bradley at the University of Massachusetts wondered whether alterations in temperature and rainfall had the potential to activate some sleeper species. As she reports in a paper in Biological Inuvasions, the answer is a definitive yes.
Dr Bradley and her team came to their conclusions by studying 1,795 plant species in north-eastern America identifiable as foreign but not yet locally listed as invasive. Of these, 169 were unquestionably demonstrating invasive behaviour in other parts of the world, and causing damage to their environment. That suggested they had the capacity to cause similar damage in America too.
To determine whether the conditions coming to the region would activate any of the set 169, the researchers first identified the conditions under which these species would thrive (旺盛). A number of the plants on their list were held back by the cold winters that are less and less common in the region. They also found that some other species required more rainfall than is typical.
According to the team’s findings, climate change is on track to awaken 18 sleeper species that could cause serious environmental and economic problems. Dr Bradley estimates that they will start to make themselves felt between 2040 and 2060 if something is not done soon.
The most practical course of action, in her view, is to seek these sleeper species out before they are able to spread. Removing them today may be expensive, but it will be far cheaper than trying to weed them out tomorrow.
12. What strategy do sleeper species employ?
A. Rapidly expanding in new environments.
B. Patiently waiting for human intervention.
C. Remaining inactive until conditions are favorable.
D. Avoiding detection by staying in shadowy-corners.
13. What does the underlined word “hard-wired” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Slowly adapted.
B. Solidly supported.
C. Externally influenced.
D. Naturally programmed.
14. What did researchers aim to uncover by focusing on the 169 species?
A. The potential risks they could pose in the future.
B. Their invasive behavior in other parts of the world.
C. The reasons why they failed to survive in America.
D. Possible ways to make them less common in America.
15. What’s Dr Bradley’s suggestion for dealing with sleeper species?
A. Let nature take its course.
B. Prevention is better than cure.
C. Cutting budgets is a top priority.
D. Delay action until it’s necessary.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了气候变化如何激活沉睡的入侵植物物种,预示这些物种可能对环境和经济产生严重影响,并建议提前采取措施。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段内容以及“Arrive on foreign soil, fit in and wait. Then, when the time is right, emerge from the shadows and take over. This procedure, familiar from spy fiction as the preserve of sleeper agents, is also the strategy of certain invasive plant species.”(到达外国的土地,适应和等待。然后,当时机成熟时,从阴影中走出来,接管一切。这一过程在间谍小说中很常见,就像潜伏特工的保护一样,也是某些入侵植物物种的策略。)可知, sleeper species的策略是在等待适宜的条件才活跃起来。因此选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“Their natural tendency to expand is, instead, held back by some external factor.”(相反,它们扩张自然趋势被一些外部因素所抑制。)可知,这些物种本能地倾向于扩展,虽然这种倾向被外部因素所抑制,hard-wired 在这里指的是“与生俱来的,固有的”。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Of these,169 were unquestionably demonstrating invasive behaviour in other parts of the world, and causing damage to their environment. That suggested they had the capacity to cause similar damage in America too.”(其中,169只无疑在世界其他地区表现出入侵行为,并对其环境造成破坏。这表明他们也有能力在美国造成类似的破坏。)可知,研究人员通过关注这169这个物种来揭示它们在未来可能带来的风险,即它们在美国也可能造成类似的环境和经济问题。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。从最后一段“The most practical course of action,in her view,is to seek these sleeper species out before they are able to spread.”(在她看来,最实际的做法是在这些潜伏物种传播之前将其消灭。)可知,Dr Bradley建议在这些物种有机会扩散之前就将其发现并清除,说明“预防胜于治疗”是应对睡眠物种的最佳策略。故选B项。

47. 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。
After flying all night, I was tired as I arrived in Denver to hold an event on positive thinking. As I entered the lecture hall, Dr. Fred Vogt asked me, “Do you know about the Make-A-Wish Foundation?” “Yes,” I replied. “Well, a 17-year-old girl Amy Graham has been diagnosed as having terminal (晚期的) cancer. Doctors gave her three days. Her dying wish was to attend your lecture.”
I was shocked. I felt a combination of awe and doubt. I couldn’t believe it. I thought kids who were dying would want to go see Disneyland, or suchlike. Why would a kid with only a few days to live want to spend their final days listening to a motivational speaker? Suddenly my thoughts were interrupted…
“Here’s Amy.” Before me stood a girl wearing a bright red hat to cover her head, which was bald from all of the treatments. Her weak body was a bit bent. She said, “My two goals were to graduate from high school and to attend your lecture. My doctors didn’t believe I could do either and they didn’t think I’d have enough energy. I have to rely on my parents now.”
Tears welled in my eyes; I was choked up. My mind was being shaken. I cleared my throat and smiled, “Thanks for wanting to come.” We hugged, wiped our eyes and separated.
That Sunday afternoon I held the workshop that Amy and her parents attended. The audience was packed to overflowing with over a thousand attendees eager to learn, grow and become more fully human. I humbly asked the audience if they wanted to learn a healing process that might serve them for life. From the stage it appeared that everyone’s hand was raised high in the air. I taught the audience how to vigorously (用力地) rub their hands together, separate them by two inches and feel the healing energy. Then I paired them off with a partner to feel the healing energy from themselves to another, explaining that everyone had healing potential to support others.

【答案】At that point an idea struck me. I said to the audience, “This morning I was introduced to Amy Graham, a 17-year-old. I want to bring her up here and let you all send healing life energy toward her.” Supported by her father, Amy stepped onto the stage, looking frail from an absolute lack of exercise. She talked about what she was suffering from and her final wish to be at this workshop. Touched by her story, the audience spontaneously warmed up their hands and engaged in the simple exercise, after which they gave her a tearful standing ovation.
With a round of applause, Amy’s dad led her off the stage. At that moment, the workshop became more than just a lecture on positive thinking — it showed the power of hope and the resilience of the human spirit. After the workshop concluded, attendees lingered, sharing stories and exchanging contact information. Many approached Amy and her parents, offering words of encouragement. It was clear that something extraordinary had taken place — a blend of hope, belief, and the courage to confront adversity with positivity. Before leaving, Amy thanked me for the unexpected invitation, which was a real bonus for her and gave her the healing power beyond physical remedies.
