The most popular bookstore is Bomulseom, which carries a quality selection (挑选) of Korean, English, and Japanese books, as well as magazines and albums.(此外，你可以用你的旧书来换取这些书店里你想读的书。最受欢迎的书店是“Bomulseom”，这里有韩文、英文、日文的优质书籍，还有杂志和画册)”可知，书迷在坡州书城可以用自己的旧书和书店交换。故选D项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据College Street, India部分“Perhaps the most well-known bookstores in this neighborhood are Dasgupta & Co., the first bookstore on College Street founded in 1886 with a large number of rare books, and the Bani Library, a family-run business for five generations housing all kinds of textbooks related to all things academic.(这一带最有名的书店可能是达斯古普塔书店(Dasgupta & Co.)和巴尼图书馆(Bani Library)，这是学院街(College Street)上的第一家书店，成立于1886年，藏有大量珍本书籍。巴尼图书馆是一家家族经营的企业，有五代人的历史，收藏着与学术有关的各种教科书)”可知，这两个书店都历史悠久。故选C项。 B “If knowledge is power, then learning is a Super Power.” That’s the motto of Jim Kwik, a world leader in speed learning and best brain performance whose cutting-edge techniques and impressive mental achievements have made him a rock star of the personal transformation world. At the age of five, Jim was sitting on a chair in his classroom. Suddenly, hearing a fire engine alarm, Jim Kwik who saw firemen as superheroes lifted his chair and moved to the corridor to watch them. Standing over the chair to watch the firemen, Jim Kwik was late to react as his fellow mate pulled his chair and he got his head severely injured. After that accident, he was never back to normal. He couldn’t remember and understand things, struggling to cope with schooling as he said once that his heart would beat out of his chest whenever his teacher asked him to read aloud a book in front of his classmates. He still remembered a teacher talking to other teachers pointing him out and naming him as “a boy with the broken brain”. His parents were very protective. But Jim never gave up! He taught himself by reading comic books every night under the blankets with the flashlight. By doing this every day he taught himself how to read in three years. Finally, Jim got a chance to have some success in school. Today, he is a highly sought-out brain trainer for top companies and organizations, with some of his videos reaching over 20 million views, and he’s known for having coached Hollywood stars like Will Smith and Hugh Jackman along with the cast of the movie X-Men. 24.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Jim Kwik由于头部受伤，不能记住和理解事物，努力应付学校教育，但是他没有放弃，通过自学，他在三年内自学了如何阅读，终于有机会在学校有所成就。如今Jim Kwik成为了学习专家。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“That’s the motto of Jim Kwik, a world leader in speed learning and best brain performance whose cutting-edge techniques and impressive mental achievements have made him a rock star of the personal transformation world.(这是Jim Kwik的座右铭，他是快速学习和最佳大脑表现方面的世界领导者，他的尖端技术和令人印象深刻的精神成就使他成为个人转变领域的摇滚明星)”可知，吉姆·奎克是世界著名的学习专家。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“After that accident, he was never back to normal. He couldn’t remember and understand things, struggling to cope with schooling as he said once that his heart would beat out of his chest whenever his teacher asked him to read aloud a book in front of his classmates. He still remembered a teacher talking to other teachers pointing him out and naming him as “a boy with the broken brain”.(那次事故之后，他再也没有恢复正常。他不能记住和理解事物，努力应付学校教育，因为他曾经说过，每当老师让他在同学面前大声朗读一本书时，他的心都会跳出来。他还记得一位老师和其他老师说话时指着他，称他为“一个脑子坏了的男孩”)”可知，事故发生后吉姆发现自己很难处理学校的任务。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“But Jim never gave up! He taught himself by reading comic books every night under the blankets with the flashlight. By doing this every day he taught himself how to read in three years. Finally, Jim got a chance to have some success in school.(但吉姆从未放弃!他每天晚上都躲在毯子下面，打着手电筒看漫画书，自学成才。通过每天这样做，他在三年内自学了如何阅读。终于，吉姆有机会在学校有所成就)”可知，吉姆·奎克的故事是鼓舞人心的。故选C。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章主要讲述了Jim Kwik由于头部受伤，不能记住和理解事物，努力应付学校教育，但是他没有放弃，通过自学，他在三年内自学了如何阅读，终于有机会在学校有所成就。如今Jim Kwik成为了学习专家。可知，B选项“学习使大脑发生变化”最符合文章标题。故选B。 C Neil Jordan, a conservation biologist, has come up with a novel method for protecting cattle from African lions: paint eyes on their behinds. The lions will think their intended prey (猎物) has seen them and will give up, since they've lost the element of surprise. This psychological trickery has been called "iCow", which is actually not as strange as it sounds. The eye-like patterns on butterfly wings are known to prevent preying birds and woodcutters in Indian forests wear masks on the backs of their heads when working to discourage hungry tigers. The inspiration for the iCow strategy came while Jordan was based in a village in Botswana, when two lionesses were killed by local farmers to revenge their cattle's death. The African lion is a vulnerable species,with numbers dropping from over 100,000 in the 1990s to about 30,000 today. Much of that decline is due to these kinds of revengeful killings because farmers have no effective strategies for protecting their herds. "Lions are hunters that like to attack by surprise. They move slowly, quietly, and carefully to their prey, get close, and jump on them unseen," he said. When Jordan was watching a lion follow an antelope one day, he noticed the lion gave up the hunt once the antelope spotted it. So he joined one of the local farmers on a 10-week trial study, painting eyes on one-third of a herd of 62 cattle. When the cattle returned each night, they took a head count to see how many had survived. Only three cows were killed by lions during this period-all without the painted eyes on their behinds. And all the painted cows survived. However, Jordan warned that so far this is just a promising idea. He is now back in Botswana for a more ambitious study,equipped with GPS devices to better monitor the movement of predators (捕食者) and prey. 28. The iCow strategy is designed to . A. kill the lions B. scare off Predators C. identify cattle D. have fun 29. When hunting,lions like to . A. give up halfway B. hesitate to take action C. chase their prey steadily D. launch surprising attacks 30. What does the underlined word "vulnerable" mean in the third paragraph? A. badly behaved B. likely to attack C. easily cheated D. easily damaged 31. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Neil Jordan got the inspiration from the patterns on butterfly wings. B. In the 10-week trial study,more cattle were killed. C. The iCow strategy is likely to bring great benefit. D. The farmers will continue to take their revenge on the lions. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了一种叫icow的策略，在牛的背上背上画上眼睛，让非洲狮子失去捕杀牛的机会，这样农民也就不再猎杀狮子，进而保护了它们。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Neil Jordan, a conservation biologist, has come up with a novel method for protecting cattle from African lions: paint eyes on their behinds. The lions will think their intended prey has seen them and will give up, since they've lost the element of surprise.（保护生物学家尼尔·乔丹提出了一种保护牛群不受非洲狮伤害的新方法:在它们的背上画上眼睛。狮子会认为它们的目标猎物看到了它们，就会放弃，因为它们已经失去了出其不意的机会。）”和第二段第一句“This psychological trickery has been called "iCow", which is actually not as strange as it sounds.（这种心理欺骗被称为“iCow”，其实并不像听起来那么奇怪。）”可知，iCow策略的目的是通过吓走非洲狮，保护牲畜不被非洲狮捕猎。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Lions are hunters that like to attack by surprise.（狮子是喜欢出其不意攻击的捕猎者。）”可知，狮子是喜欢突然袭击的捕猎者。故选D项。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“with numbers dropping from over 100,000 in the 1990s to about 30,000 today”可知，非洲狮数量下降很快，所以非洲狮是一种脆弱的物种，所以，划线单词与D项“easily damaged”意义一致。故选D项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的句子“So he joined one of the local farmers on a 10-week trial study, painting eyes on one-third of a herd of 62 cattle. When the cattle returned each night, they took a head count to see how many had survived. Only three cows were killed by lions during this period-all without the painted eyes on their behinds. And all the painted cows survived.（因此，他加入了当地一位农民的行列，进行了为期10周的试验研究，为一群62头牛中的三分之一画上眼睛。每天晚上，当牛群回来时，他们会数一数，看看有多少幸存下来。在这一时期，只有三头牛被狮子杀死，而且都没有在它们的背后画上眼睛。所有画好的奶牛都活了下来。）” 可以推论出，iCow策略可能会带来巨大的利益。故选C项。 D Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal (北方的) forest fires were in terms of emissions. The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study. Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal (封存) carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink. But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source. In all, fires in boreal forests released the carbon sink and produced nearly half a billion metric tons of carbon in 2021. That’s more carbon than the entire continent of Australia produced the same year, though some of the emissions produced by the fires will be sucked back up as forests regrow. The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from. They found that boreal forests, which typically produce about 10 percent of the globe’s annual wildfire emissions, accounted for 23 percent of the world’s wildfire emissions in 2021 — more than twice as much as normal. Canadell, who led the study, is most concerned about the study’s main takeaway; Boreal forests have served an important and underappreciated role in sequestering carbon emissions, but climate change threatens to release that carbon. “We need to be very careful with these systems in terms of their future development.” he said. 32. What is the function of paragraph 2? A To indicate the seriousness of the fire. B. To illustrate two scientific concepts. C. To explain the source of carbon. D. To show the importance of boreal forests. 33. How did the scientists get needed data? A. By searching on the website. B. By employing technology. C. By analyzing previous data. D. By turning to the firefighters. 34. What does the underlined word “sequestering” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Stopping. B. Increasing. C. Monitoring. D. Assessing. 35. What is mainly talked about in the text? A. The reasons for the forest fires in the north. B. The impact of the 2021 boreal forest fires. C. The link between fires and carbon dioxide. D. The increasingly growing carbon emissions. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是2021年北方森林大火造成的影响。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study. (根据一项研究，自21世纪之交以来，火灾产生的地球加热二氧化碳比任何其他极端火灾事件都多)”及第二段“Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink. (北方的森林生长在非常寒冷的地方。生活在这种类型的森林中的树木生长缓慢，并在树干和根部封存碳数百年，其中包括一组被捕获的排放物，研究人员称之为碳汇)”可知，文章首段提出北方森林大火造成了大量的碳排放，在第二段介绍了森林对碳的封存功能以及这些树木内的碳是如何释放出来的。由此推知，第二段的目的是解释北方森林大火为什么会造成大量的碳排放，即说明这些碳的来源。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from. (研究人员通过使用卫星跟踪大气中的排放浓度来获得研究数据，然后将这些信息输入计算机模型，以确定这些排放在地理上来自何处)”可知，科学家在研究过程中使用了高科技来统计数据。故选B项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source. (但是，在这些历史上凉爽的地区，气温上升和相关的干旱导致了极端野火活动的增加，并有可能释放储存在那里生长的树木中的碳，将碳汇转化为碳源)”以及第五段划线词后句中“but climate change threatens to release that carbon(但气候变化有可能释放这种碳)”可知，北方森林在隔离碳排放方面发挥了重要但未得到充分重视的作用。由此可知，划线词sequestering和stopping“阻止”意思相近。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal (北方的) forest fires were in terms of emissions. (两年前，大火席卷了俄罗斯约4600万英亩的森林，这是该国有记录以来最严重的火灾季节。现在，研究人员对2021北方森林火灾在排放方面的重要性有了更清晰的认识)”可知，文章主要介绍的是2021年北方森林大火造成的影响。故选B项。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。 Are you thinking about holidaying alone, but a bit concerned about the dangers? You needn’t worry if you consider these tips first. 1. Safety Unless you positively invite danger — i.e. wandering around a dark park at 3 a.m. with headphones on — travelling alone isn’t actually that risky. ___36___ In the case of taking taxis, always keep a record of the plate number and ask for an estimated fare before setting off. You should also carry your ID card with you and always keep a back-up. And most importantly, ensure that someone else knows your route and keep in regular contact with them. 2. Plan Being alone means you can’t use your partner’s phone when yours runs out of juice, or rely on them should you lose your wallet. ___37___ It’s a good idea to write down some key numbers of friends, hotels and emergency services beforehand, and keep some back-up money in your bag, just in case. 3. Eating Many single travelers have a fear of eating alone. ___38___ You can bring a book to avoid boredom, sit at counters to be less noticeable or use the opportunity to practice your foreign language on a waiter. 4. Making friends ___39___ This is another common concern when travelling alone. In fact, acquiring new companions (伙伴) is easier than feared. You can smile at people, have open body language, read something interesting to start conversation, or ask strangers a question. All these help you look approachable. More hands-on tips include visiting bars, joining tours or using apps designed to help people make friends. 5.

G 38. C 39. A 40. F 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。你是否考虑过独自度假，但又有点担心危险？文章主要就独自旅行中常见的一些担忧提出了一些建议。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Unless you positively invite danger — i.e. wandering around a dark park at 3 a.m. with headphones on — travelling alone isn’t actually that risky.(除非你确实是自找麻烦——比如凌晨3点戴着耳机在黑暗的公园里闲逛——独自旅行其实并没有那么危险)”以及后文“In the case of taking taxis, always keep a record of the plate number and ask for an estimated fare before setting off. You should also carry your ID card with you and always keep a back-up. And most importantly, ensure that someone else knows your route and keep in regular contact with them.(在乘坐的士时，一定要记录车牌号码，并在出发前索要估计车费。你亦应随身携带身份证，并备存身份证。最重要的是，确保别人知道你的路线，并与他们保持定期联系)”可知，本段主要说明的是个人安全问题，上文提到独自旅行并没有那么危险，可知本句应当是在说明真正的危险是什么，故B选项“最大的危险是坐车被人骗了”符合语境，故选B。 【37题详解】 根据后文“It’s a good idea to write down some key numbers of friends, hotels and emergency services beforehand, and keep some back-up money in your bag, just in case.(事先记下一些重要的朋友、酒店和应急服务机构的电话号码，并在包里备一些钱以防万一，这是个好主意)”可知，后文提到了旅行前一些以防万一的措施，可知是在出发前就要做好紧急措施，G选项中emergency对应后文中emergency。故G选项“所以在出发前要准备好应急措施”符合语境，故选G。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Many single travelers have a fear of eating alone.(许多单身旅行者都害怕一个人吃饭)”以及后文“You can bring a book to avoid boredom, sit at counters to be less noticeable or use the opportunity to practice your foreign language on a waiter.(你可以带本书来排解无聊，坐在柜台前让别人注意不到你，或者利用这个机会向服务员练习外语)”可知，上文提到害怕一个人吃饭，后文则提出了解决办法，可知要克服一个人吃饭的忧虑并不困难。故C选项“克服忧虑其实并不难”符合语境，故选C。 【39题详解】 根据后文“This is another common concern when travelling alone. In fact, acquiring new companions (伙伴) is easier than feared. You can smile at people, have open body language, read something interesting to start conversation, or ask strangers a question. All these help you look approachable. More hands-on tips include visiting bars, joining tours or using apps designed to help people make friends.(这是独自旅行时另一个常见的问题。事实上，获得新伙伴比你担心的要容易。你可以对别人微笑，使用开放的肢体语言，读一些有趣的东西来开始对话，或者问陌生人一个问题。所有这些都会让你看起来平易近人。更多的实用技巧包括逛酒吧、参加旅行团或使用旨在帮助人们交朋友的应用程序)”可知，本段主要说明的是独自旅行时交朋友的问题，且后文提到了担心，说明本句是在说明担心旅行中没有人喜欢自己，交不到朋友。故A选项“如果在我的旅行中没有人喜欢我怎么办？”符合语境，故选A。 【40题详解】 根据小标题“Enjoy it(享受它)”以及上文“Without having to consider others’ needs, the joy of solo travel is that you can be entirely selfish: walk at your preferred pace, eat what and when you want, and go wherever you like to see the sights that interest you.(不用考虑别人的需要，独自旅行的乐趣在于你可以完全自私：以你喜欢的步调行走，想吃什么就吃什么，去任何你想去的地方，去你感兴趣的景点)”可知，本段的建议是享受独自旅行，F选项中enjoy对应小标题中enjoy。故F选项“珍惜你的独立，享受这种自由”符合语境，故选F。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，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。 The first time ever I realized that plastic was a serious matter for our planet was during a road trip in Western Australia, almost 12 years ago.

With laughter and cheers all around me, I took a short break near the field’s edge to catch my breath. It was then that I heard a faint mewing sound. Following the sound, I finally spotted a tiny kitten. It looked scared and hurt, its leg twisted at a strange angle. “Hey, guys! Come here!” I called out to my classmates. They gathered around, their faces filled with concern. “We need to help it,” said Sarah. We all agreed. Carefully, I picked up the kitten, feeling its tiny body shake in my hands. It was so small and weak. We decided to seek help from our kind PE teacher, Mr Johnson. “Mr Johnson, we found this poor kitten, and it seems badly hurt,” I said, holding it out to him. He looked at the kitten and then at us, a serious expression crossing his face. “Let me call the school nurse Mrs Thompson,” he said. Before Mrs Thompson came, we quickly made a makeshift stretcher (临时担架) using a towel and two sticks, and gently placed the kitten on it with Mr Johnson’s direction. A moment later, Mrs Thompson came running with a first aid kit. As she examined the kitten, we all held our breath. “It looks like it has a broken leg,” she said. “We need to get it to the animal hospital immediately.” Mr Johnson nodded and told us to go back to the classroom after the PE class was over. Then, he and Mrs Thompson took the kitten to the vet. The rest of the day was a blur. We could only think about the kitten, hoping it would be fine. Before the school was over, Mr Johnson returned to the classroom with a big smile on his face. “Good news, kids!” he announced. “The kitten’s surgery was a success. The vet said that with proper care it would make a full recovery.” 注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Hearing this, we all felt relieved. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the animal hospital, we saw the recovered kitten. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Hearing this, we all felt relieved. The classroom erupted in cheers and applause. Sarah clapped her hands, her eyes shining with joy. “We saved a life today!” she exclaimed. I couldn’t help but smile, feeling a warm sense of pride. Mr Johnson praised us for our teamwork and kindness, reminding us that even small actions could make a big difference. We decided to visit the kitten after school to see how it was doing. In the animal hospital, we saw the recovered kitten. It was resting in a cozy bed, its leg wrapped in a tiny cast. The kitten looked much better, its eyes bright and curious. The vet told us it would need a few weeks to heal completely. “Who will take care of it?” I asked. Mr Johnson smiled and said, “I’ve already spoken to the principal. The school will adopt it, and we can all help take care of it.” We cheered again, knowing the kitten had found a safe home. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主要讲述了在体育课上发现一只受伤的小猫，同学们和老师共同努力救助小猫，并最终看到小猫康复的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听了这话，我们都松了一口气。”可知，第一段可描写听到消息后的反应和老师的表扬以及决定去看小猫。 ②由第二段首句内容“在动物医院，我们看到了那只康复的小猫”可知，第二段可描写同学们在动物医院看到康复后的小猫的情景以及决定照顾小猫。 2.续写线索：爆发出欢呼声和掌声——老师的表扬——放学后决定去看小猫——看到小猫的场景——欢呼 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①爆发：erupt/burst ②赞扬：praise/ speak highly of ③决定：decide /determine ④告知：tell/inform 情绪类 ①快乐：joy/pleasure ②自豪：pride/being proud 【点睛】[高分句型1] I couldn’t help but smile, feeling a warm sense of pride.

B “If knowledge is power, then learning is a Super Power.” That’s the motto of Jim Kwik, a world leader in speed learning and best brain performance whose cutting-edge techniques and impressive mental achievements have made him a rock star of the personal transformation world. At the age of five, Jim was sitting on a chair in his classroom. Suddenly, hearing a fire engine alarm, Jim Kwik who saw firemen as superheroes lifted his chair and moved to the corridor to watch them. Standing over the chair to watch the firemen, Jim Kwik was late to react as his fellow mate pulled his chair and he got his head severely injured. After that accident, he was never back to normal. He couldn’t remember and understand things, struggling to cope with schooling as he said once that his heart would beat out of his chest whenever his teacher asked him to read aloud a book in front of his classmates. He still remembered a teacher talking to other teachers pointing him out and naming him as “a boy with the broken brain”. His parents were very protective. But Jim never gave up! He taught himself by reading comic books every night under the blankets with the flashlight. By doing this every day he taught himself how to read in three years. Finally, Jim got a chance to have some success in school. Today, he is a highly sought-out brain trainer for top companies and organizations, with some of his videos reaching over 20 million views, and he’s known for having coached Hollywood stars like Will Smith and Hugh Jackman along with the cast of the movie X-Men. 24 What do we know about Jim Kwik? A. He heals brain and mental diseases. B. He is a world famous learning expert. C. He was injured by his classmate on purpose. D. He got injured when taking part in a fire fighting. 25. What happened to Jim after the accident? A. He never went back to school. B. He felt nervous to talk with classmates. C. He found it difficult to handle school tasks. D. He was called ”broken brain"by his classmates. 26. Which word can best describe the story of Jim Kwik? A. Tragic. B. Embarrassing. C. Inspiring. D. Entertaining. 27. Which would be the best title for the text? A. Knowledge Is a Super Power B. Learning Makes a Brain Change C A Super Brain Guarantees Success D. An Accident Turned Out a Blessing C Neil Jordan, a conservation biologist, has come up with a novel method for protecting cattle from African lions: paint eyes on their behinds. The lions will think their intended prey (猎物) has seen them and will give up, since they've lost the element of surprise. This psychological trickery has been called "iCow", which is actually not as strange as it sounds. The eye-like patterns on butterfly wings are known to prevent preying birds and woodcutters in Indian forests wear masks on the backs of their heads when working to discourage hungry tigers. The inspiration for the iCow strategy came while Jordan was based in a village in Botswana, when two lionesses were killed by local farmers to revenge their cattle's death. The African lion is a vulnerable species,with numbers dropping from over 100,000 in the 1990s to about 30,000 today. Much of that decline is due to these kinds of revengeful killings because farmers have no effective strategies for protecting their herds. "Lions are hunters that like to attack by surprise. They move slowly, quietly, and carefully to their prey, get close, and jump on them unseen," he said. When Jordan was watching a lion follow an antelope one day, he noticed the lion gave up the hunt once the antelope spotted it. So he joined one of the local farmers on a 10-week trial study, painting eyes on one-third of a herd of 62 cattle. When the cattle returned each night, they took a head count to see how many had survived. Only three cows were killed by lions during this period-all without the painted eyes on their behinds. And all the painted cows survived. However, Jordan warned that so far this is just a promising idea. He is now back in Botswana for a more ambitious study,equipped with GPS devices to better monitor the movement of predators (捕食者) and prey. 28. The iCow strategy is designed to . A. kill the lions B. scare off Predators C. identify cattle D. have fun 29. When hunting,lions like to . A. give up halfway B. hesitate to take action C. chase their prey steadily D. launch surprising attacks 30. What does the underlined word "vulnerable" mean in the third paragraph? A. badly behaved B. likely to attack C. easily cheated D. easily damaged 31. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Neil Jordan got the inspiration from the patterns on butterfly wings. B. In the 10-week trial study,more cattle were killed. C. The iCow strategy is likely to bring great benefit. D. The farmers will continue to take their revenge on the lions. D Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal (北方的) forest fires were in terms of emissions. The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study. Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal (封存) carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink. But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source. In all, fires in boreal forests released the carbon sink and produced nearly half a billion metric tons of carbon in 2021. That’s more carbon than the entire continent of Australia produced the same year, though some of the emissions produced by the fires will be sucked back up as forests regrow. The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from. They found that boreal forests, which typically produce about 10 percent of the globe’s annual wildfire emissions, accounted for 23 percent of the world’s wildfire emissions in 2021 — more than twice as much as normal. Canadell, who led the study, is most concerned about the study’s main takeaway; Boreal forests have served an important and underappreciated role in sequestering carbon emissions, but climate change threatens to release that carbon. “We need to be very careful with these systems in terms of their future development.” he said. 32. What is the function of paragraph 2? A. To indicate the seriousness of the fire. B. To illustrate two scientific concepts. C. To explain the source of carbon. D. To show the importance of boreal forests. 33. How did the scientists get needed data? A. By searching on the website. B. By employing technology. C. By analyzing previous data. D. By turning to the firefighters. 34. What does the underlined word “sequestering” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Stopping. B. Increasing. C. Monitoring. D. Assessing. 35. What is mainly talked about in the text? A. The reasons for the forest fires in the north. B. The impact of the 2021 boreal forest fires. C. The link between fires and carbon dioxide. D. The increasingly growing carbon emissions. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。 Are you thinking about holidaying alone, but a bit concerned about the dangers? You needn’t worry if you consider these tips first. 1. Safety Unless you positively invite danger — i.e. wandering around a dark park at 3 a.m. with headphones on — travelling alone isn’t actually that risky. ___36___ In the case of taking taxis, always keep a record of the plate number and ask for an estimated fare before setting off. You should also carry your ID card with you and always keep a back-up. And most importantly, ensure that someone else knows your route and keep in regular contact with them. 2. Plan Being alone means you can’t use your partner’s phone when yours runs out of juice, or rely on them should you lose your wallet. ___37___ It’s a good idea to write down some key numbers of friends, hotels and emergency services beforehand, and keep some back-up money in your bag, just in case. 3. Eating Many single travelers have a fear of eating alone. ___38___ You can bring a book to avoid boredom, sit at counters to be less noticeable or use the opportunity to practice your foreign language on a waiter. 4. Making friends ___39___ This is another common concern when travelling alone. In fact, acquiring new companions (伙伴) is easier than feared. You can smile at people, have open body language, read something interesting to start conversation, or ask strangers a question. All these help you look approachable. More hands-on tips include visiting bars, joining tours or using apps designed to help people make friends. 5. Enjoy it Without having to consider others’ needs, the joy of solo travel is that you can be entirely selfish: walk at your preferred pace, eat what and when you want, and go wherever you like to see the sights that interest you. ___40___. A. What if no one likes me on my trip? B. The biggest danger is being taken for a ride. C. It’s actually not so hard to get over your worry. D. You needn’t get into a panic if this really happens. E. However well you plan in advance, things will go wrong. F. Just appreciate your independence and enjoy that freedom. G. So put emergency systems in place before starting your trip. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，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。 The first time ever I realized that plastic was a serious matter for our planet was during a road trip in Western Australia, almost 12 years ago.

With laughter and cheers all around me, I took a short break near the field’s edge to catch my breath. It was then that I heard a faint mewing sound. Following the sound, I finally spotted a tiny kitten. It looked scared and hurt, its leg twisted at a strange angle. “Hey, guys! Come here!” I called out to my classmates. They gathered around, their faces filled with concern. “We need to help it,” said Sarah. We all agreed. Carefully, I picked up the kitten, feeling its tiny body shake in my hands. It was so small and weak. We decided to seek help from our kind PE teacher, Mr Johnson. “Mr Johnson, we found this poor kitten, and it seems badly hurt,” I said, holding it out to him. He looked at the kitten and then at us, a serious expression crossing his face. “Let me call the school nurse Mrs Thompson,” he said. Before Mrs Thompson came, we quickly made a makeshift stretcher (临时担架) using a towel and two sticks, and gently placed the kitten on it with Mr Johnson’s direction. A moment later, Mrs Thompson came running with a first aid kit. As she examined the kitten, we all held our breath. “It looks like it has a broken leg,” she said. “We need to get it to the animal hospital immediately.” Mr Johnson nodded and told us to go back to the classroom after the PE class was over. Then, he and Mrs Thompson took the kitten to the vet. The rest of the day was a blur. We could only think about the kitten, hoping it would be fine. Before the school was over, Mr Johnson returned to the classroom with a big smile on his face. “Good news, kids!” he announced. “The kitten’s surgery was a success. The vet said that with proper care it would make a full recovery.” 注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Hearing this, we all felt relieved. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the animal hospital, we saw the recovered kitten. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Hi john.
