听下面一段较长对话,回答以下小题。
11. Which color do cats see better than humans?
A. Gray. B. Green. C. Red.
12. Why do cats bring dead birds home?
A. To eat them in a safe place.
B. To make their owners happy.
C. To show off their hunting skills.
13. How does the man sound at the end of the conversation?
A. Curious. B. Serious. C. Humorous.
【答案】11. A 12. A 13. C
【原文】W: Welcome to our programme, Doctor Peterson. Let’s see what questions we’ve got for you today. Here is one, can cats see colours?
M: Sort of. In the wild, many cats hunt at night because their eyes are designed for low light. Your cat can’t see bright colors such as red and green, but it picks up more shades of blue, yellow and gray than humans do.
W: And why do cats give dead birds to their owners?
M: When your cat drops a dead bird at your feet, she isn’t bringing you a present. Most cats just drag food home because it’s a safe place to eat. A cat’s mom also brings home things to her children to help them practise hunting. So a female cat without children may bring these treats to her owner instead. You may not like them, but at least you don’t have to write her a thank you note.

【原文】W: A big dog celebrates a big birthday this year. Clifford The Big Red Dog first appeared sixty years ago, along with Emily Elizabeth, a little girl who loves him. Today we have Norman Bridwell to talk with NBR’s reporter on his dog’s sixtieth birthday. So Norman, tell us how it all started.
M: Well, it was 1962 and I was struggling. Not very successful artist in New York. My wife suggested that I try my hand at painting for children’s books. So I did ten paintings and took them to the publishers. I was turned down everywhere except at one publisher, where a young woman told me I wasn’t very good. So if I want to paint for a book, I need to write one on my own.
W: So you did.
M: Oh, the woman pointed to a painting I had done. A little girl with the big red dog and she said maybe that’s the story. And I went home and over that weekend I wrote the story Clifford the Big Red Dog and I was shocked. It was accepted for publication, because I never wrote anything before.
W: I see how wonderful.
M: Yes, it was. My wife was also in shock when she did realize it wasn’t a dream, but it was just luck.
W: But that luck turned into ninety Clifford books.

The police have asked the local people not to water their gardens more than once a week. During the emergency period, washing cars is completely banned.
The temperature at 2 p.m. yesterday was a record 32 degrees. Hospitals have reported a large number of cases caused by the extreme heat. Old people and babies are most at risk. Unfortunately the weather forecast says the hot, dry weather will continue for three or four more days. Who says it always rains in England? There has been a small fire at Oxton General Hospital. More than twenty patients were moved away from part of the building as firemen went for the fire.
The fire was not serious. The firemen stopped it in a couple of minutes and everything now is back to normal. Well, that’s the news at ten o’clock. The next news will be in two hours at midday.
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
72 hours in Beijing
Traveling to China is no longer a luxury for many foreign passport holders. The Chinese government has permitted a 72-hour visa-free policy that offers access to visitors from 53 countries including the US, France and Austria. Let’s start with the capital of China, Beijing. Here’s the pick of the best in Beijing.
Mutianyu Great Wall
Your trip to Beijing isn’t really complete without seeing one of the “New Seven Wonders of the World”-the Great Wall of China. The Mutianyu section of the Great Wall is by far the most well-preserved of all. Taking a one-hour bus ride, Mutianyu would be your ideal location for a half-day of hiking away from the large crowds in the city. Also, the authorities have allowed tourists to paint graffiti on a specific section of the Great Wall since 2014. The Great Wall was designated (把……定名为) a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.
Summer Palace
Located in northwestern Beijing, the Summer Palace is by far the city’s most well- preserved royal park. With its huge lake and hilltop views, the palace offers you a pastoral escape into the landscape of traditional Chinese paintings. The Summer Palace was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998.
798 Art Zone
This would be on the top of my list! Named after the 798 factory that was built in the 1950s, the art zone is home to various galleries, design studios, art exhibition spaces, fashionable shops and bars. You could easily spend half your day wandering around the complex, feeling the contrast of the present and the past.
Sichuan Provincial Restaurant
While in Beijing, apart from trying the city’s best-known Peking duck, the Sichuan provincial restaurant is one of places where you can enjoy regional delicious food. It offers one of China’s eight great cuisines, Sichuan cuisine, which ranges from Mapo tofu to spicy chicken.
21. When was the Summer Palace added to the UNESCO World Heritage List?
A. In 1950. B. In 1987. C. In 1998. D. In 2014.
22. Which place is the author’s first choice when visiting Beijing?
A. Mutianyu Great Wall. B. 798 Art Zone.
C. The Summer Palace. D. The Sichuan Provincial Restaurant.
23. Who is the passage intended for?
A. The foreigners to stay in Beijing for 3 days.
B. The tourists who prefer to travel for free.
C. The visitors coming from every corner of China.
D. The foreigners coming to Beijing for the first time.
【答案】21. C 22. B 23. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。中国政府允许53个国家的游客可以在中国免签证停留72小时。本文推荐了在这3天里北京几个最值得去的地方。
21.细节理解题。根据Summer Palace部分中“The Summer Palace was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998. (颐和园于 1998年被列人联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。)”可知,颐和园是在1998年被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录的。故选C。
22. 细节理解题。根据798 Art Zone部分中“This would be on the top of my list! (这将会是我旅游清单中的第一个!)”可知,去北京旅游时,798 Art Zone会是作者的首选。故选B。
23. 推理判断题。根据第一段“Traveling to China is no longer a luxury for many foreign passport holders. The Chinese government has permitted a 72-hour visa-free policy that offers access to visitors from 53 countries including the US, France and Austria. Let’s start with the capital of China, Beijing. Here’s the pick of the best in Beijing .(对于许多持有外国护照的人来说,去中国旅游不再是一件奢侈的事。中国政府已经允许72小时免签证入境政策,包括美国、法国和奥地利在内的53个国家的游客。让我们从中国的首都北京开始。以下是精选出的北京几个最好的去处。)”以及下文对北京四个景点的详细介绍可知,文章是为获得免签72小时的外国人推荐北京最好的几个去处,故本文是写给要在北京待3天的外国人。故选A。
B
Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature—not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.
If the task was as a strange one, it’s because the act of memorizing a poem feels curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. When I was in graduate school, working toward a degree in English literature, I mostly limited myself to essays. It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem. Sometimes I spoke its lines aloud, my voice masked by the airplane’s thrum. Sometimes I went through the whole poem at once, and sometimes I repeated a single stanza (诗节) over and over, and by the time my plane landed on the West Coast, I had the whole thing, all 40 lines of it, in my head. Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you run your hands through the rock, the lines at last come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure.
In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.
Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know that if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep beating in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.
24.Why did Robert L. Hass advise students to read poems?
A.To become literature professors. B.To prepare for the coming exams.
C.To compose more original poems. D.To relieve their future loneliness.
25.Why does the author say that memorizing a poem begins as a crime?
A.It’s out of date to recite poems. B.Repetition wastes a lot of time.
C.Repetition ruins the poem’s beauty. D.It’s a shame to read poems on plane.
26.How does understanding poetry influence us?
A.By broadening self-understanding. B.By refreshing our good memories.
C.By helping us survive the hard life. D.By reminding us to forget the past.
27.What is the author’s attitude towards memorizing poetry in the last paragraph?
A.Doubtful. B.Reserved. C.Appreciative. D.Critical.
【答案】24. D 25.C 26.A 27.C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者朋友多年前被诗人 Robert L.Hass布置了一 项特别任务——背诵三首诗,以及作者自己后来开始背诵诗歌的经历和感悟。
24. 细节理解题。根据第一段“not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you're going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have(他声称,这不是为了什么紧急的考试原因,而是为了让他们为不可避免的未来做好准备,那时你将独自一人,而诗歌将是你唯一的东西)”可知,Robert L.Hass 建议学生们背诗,为将来的孤独生活做准备。故选D。
25. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中 "Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has (因为这个过程既简单又无聊,背诵一首伟大的诗总是开始得像是一种罪过。重复的无聊减少了它所具有的巨大魅力)”可知,作者认为背诵诗歌的过程中,重复的无聊会破坏诗歌的魅力,因此开始背诵诗歌时就像是一种罪过。故选 C。
26. 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中"In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are(换句话说,诗歌通过成为读者的一部分而不断 存在。它之所以能做到这一点,是因为它是如此的具体,与我们如此的不同,以至于接受它 扩展了我们对自己是什么的感觉)”可知,理解诗歌可以扩展我们对自我的认识,影响我们对自 我的理解。A选项“By broadening self-understanding.(通过拓宽自我理解)”符合题意。故选A。
27. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“I won't promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become(我不会向你保证背诵诗歌会让你的生活变得更好,但它会让你变得更多:更多地接触语言,接触其他思想,也许还有你可能成为的样子)"可知,作者对背诵 诗歌持赞赏的态度,认为背诵诗歌可以让人更多地接触语言、其他思想和可能的自我。故选 C。
C
Hummingbirds are the Olympic gymnasts in the world of birds. They zip around at remarkable speeds, hover (悬停) in place and fly in all directions, including backward and while upside down. To achieve such agility (敏捷), hummingbirds use distinct modes of visual processing to control different types of flight, researchers report in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. In particular, the scientists uncovered a seemingly unique mode that guides hummingbirds’ speed when they are flying forward.
The findings come from an analysis of more than 3,500 hummingbird flights inside a 12-foot-long tunnel with a resting spot at one end and a feeder at the other. Moving patterns projected on the tunnel walls dominated the hummingbirds’ sense of optic flow — the perceived motion of surroundings while traveling through the world. The speed of that motion, called pattern velocity, is a key visual cue (线索) that many animals use to adjust their own speed and position as they move.
The researchers expected that if the hummingbirds were using pattern velocity cues to control their forward flight speed, they would see the birds speed or slow in line with vertical stripes projected on the side walls. But instead “it seemed more the case that they have their own internal speed meter” for forward flight, says study co-author Vikram Baliga, a comparative physiologist at the University of British Columbia.
Any movement that challenged the hummingbirds’ expectations of how their surroundings should change slowed the birds down — even vertical stripes moving toward the feeder, which the researchers expected would make them speed up. When hovering or moving up or down, however, the birds based their motor commands on the projected patterns they saw.
The ability to switch between these different flight modes highlights a hummingbird’s unique agility, says Doug Altshuler, a zoologist at the University of British Columbia specializing in complex locomotion. Hummingbird brains have evolved to make rapid transitions from visual signals to motor outputs. “They excel at taking in lots of complicated visual information and making a safe flight plan out of that.”
28. What is the key discovery about hummingbirds’ flight control?
A. It relies entirely on optic flow. B. It uses distinct visual strategies.
C. It navigates by feeder locations. D. It adjusts flight via vertical stripes.
29. Why were moving patterns projected in the tunnel?
A. To test light sensitivity. B. To study optic flow’s role.
C. To measure maximum speed. D. To observe feeding behavior.
30. What can be inferred about hummingbirds’ forward flight control from paragraph 3?
A. Muscle strength drives their flight. B. Vertical stripes guide their navigation.
C. Their speed matches projected patterns. D. Their speed adjustments are self-regulated.
31. According to Altshuler, hummingbirds achieve remarkable flight agility by .
A. processing visual data efficiently B. reacting to visual feedback instantly
C. following fixed flight routes completely D. using an internal speedometer consistently
【答案】28. B 29. B 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了科学家发现蜂鸟运用不同的视觉处理模式来控制不同类型的飞行,而且科学家发现了一种可以指导蜂鸟前进飞行的独特模式。
28. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“To achieve such agility (敏捷), hummingbirds use distinct modes of visual processing to control different types of flight, researchers report in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B.(研究人员在《英国皇家学会学报B》上报道,为了实现这种敏捷性,蜂鸟使用不同的视觉处理模式来控制不同类型的飞行。)”可知,科学家发现蜂鸟使用不同的视觉处理模式来控制飞行。故选B。
29. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Moving patterns projected on the tunnel walls dominated the hummingbirds’ sense of optic flow — the perceived motion of surroundings while traveling through the world. The speed of that motion, called pattern velocity, is a key visual cue (线索) that many animals use to adjust their own speed and position as they move.(投影在隧道壁上的移动图案影响了蜂鸟的光流感知——在穿越世界时感知到的周围环境的运动。这种运动的速度,称为图案速度,是许多动物在移动时用来调整自己速度和位置的关键视觉线索。)”和第三段中的“The researchers expected that if the hummingbirds were using pattern velocity cues to control their forward flight speed, they would see the birds speed or slow in line with vertical stripes projected on the side walls.(研究人员预计,如果蜂鸟使用图案速度线索来控制它们的前进飞行速度,他们会看到这些鸟的加速或减速与侧壁上投影的垂直条纹一致。)”可知,研究人员在隧道壁上投影了垂直条纹,这会影响蜂鸟的光流感知,而且研究人员预计,如果蜂鸟使用图案速度线索来控制前进飞行速度,这些鸟的加速或减速与侧壁上投影的垂直条纹一致。由此可推测出,研究人员在隧道壁上投影移动图案是为了研究光流对蜂鸟飞行的影响。故选B。
30. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But instead “it seemed more the case that they have their own internal speed meter” for forward flight, says study co-author Vikram Baliga, a comparative physiologist at the University of British Columbia.(但不列颠哥伦比亚大学的比较生理学家、该研究的合著者Vikram Baliga表示,相反,“情况似乎是,它们有自己的内部速度计”用于向前飞行。)”可知,蜂鸟向前飞行时未依赖垂直条纹的视觉线索,而是依靠“内部速度计”,由此可推测出,蜂鸟可以自主调节速度。故选D。
31. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The ability to switch between these different flight modes highlights a hummingbird’s unique agility, says Doug Altshuler, a zoologist at the University of British Columbia specializing in complex locomotion. Hummingbird brains have evolved to make rapid transitions from visual signals to motor outputs. “They excel at taking in lots of complicated visual information and making a safe flight plan out of that.”(不列颠哥伦比亚大学专门研究复杂运动的动物学家Doug Altshuler说,在这些不同的飞行模式之间切换的能力突显了蜂鸟独特的敏捷性。蜂鸟的大脑已经进化到能够从视觉信号快速过渡到运动输出。“它们擅长接收大量复杂的视觉信息,并据此制订安全的飞行计划。”)”可知,蜂鸟能快速处理复杂视觉信息并制订飞行计划,由此可推测出,蜂鸟通过高效处理视觉数据来实现飞行敏捷。故选A。
D
Beethoven is a giant of classical music. And the one with the most influence at least when it comes to piano compositions. That’s according to a study in the journal EPJ Data Science.
If you’re wondering how data analysis could determine something as abstract as cultural influence, it’s worth remembering the great thing about music: it’s the most mathematical of the art forms we actually can deal with because a lot of it is symbolic. The music is written in symbols that are connected in time.
Juyong Park is a theoretical physicist at the Korea Advanced institute of Science and Technology. Park and his colleagues collected 900 piano compositions by 19 composers covering the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, from 1700 to 1910. Then they used that mathematical quality to their advantage by dividing each composition into what they called “code words,” a group of notes played at the same time—in other words, a chord. They then compared each chord to the chords that came before it. “Our computer model allows us to calculate the degree of shared melodies between past and future works.” said Park.
The composer with top marks for novelty was Rachmaninoff. But when the researchers looked at those chord transitions across all 19 composers, it was Beethoven who was most heavily borrowed from—meaning, at least among the composers in this analysis, his influence was the largest.
Their study comes with a couple caveats. The researchers only considered piano compositions in this work—-not orchestral works. And by only studying chord transitions, their conclusions wouldn’t capture artists who had influence in other ways. “It’s well understood that Mozart’s contribution to music mainly comes from the musical forms that he devised. That was not very well captured by our mathematical modeling.”
32. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. They turned music compositions into written symbols.
B. They looked at how chords differed from previous ones.
C. They collected 900 pieces from contemporary composer.
D. They calculated the number of chords in each music piece.
33. What can be known from the research findings?
A. Beethoven was best at coming up with new chords.
B. Beethoven borrowed heavily from another composer.
C. Rachmaninoff’s chords were most unlike previous ones.
D. Rachmaninoff’s chords were copied by future composers.
34. What does he underlined word “caveats” probably mean?
A. warnings B. benefits C. costs D. proofs
35. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Beethoven Regarded as a Giant of Classical Music.
B. Similarity between Music and Math Investigated.
C. Beethoven’s Major Musical Contribution Confirmed.
D. Computer Analyses Confirm Beethoven’s Influence.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,研究人员通过数学性质证明了贝多芬在音乐领域的过人之处。
32. 细节理解题。根据第三段的“They then compared each chord to the chords that came before it. “Our computer model allows us to calculate the degree of shared melodies between past and future works.” said Park. (然后,他们将每个和弦与之前的和弦进行比较。“我们的计算机模型允许我们计算过去和未来作品之间共享旋律的程度。)”可知,他们通过观察和弦与之前的和弦有何不同来进行研究。故选B。
33. 细节理解题。根据第四段的“The composer with top marks for novelty was Rachmaninoff. (新颖性最高的作曲家是拉赫玛尼诺夫)”可知,在新颖性方面得分最高的作曲家是拉赫玛尼诺夫。所以拉赫玛尼诺夫的和弦与之前的和弦截然不同。故选C。
34. 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“The researchers only considered piano compositions in this work—-not orchestral works. And by only studying chord transitions, their conclusions wouldn’t capture artists who had influence in other ways. (研究人员在这部作品中只考虑了钢琴作品,而没有考虑管弦乐作品。仅仅研究和弦转换,他们的结论无法捕捉到在其他方面有影响力的艺术家)”可知,下文提到的内容是该研究的局限性。由此推知,划线词所在句子意为“他们的研究有几点需要注意”,即caveats意为“注意”,与warnings同义。故选A。
35. 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了研究员通过数学性质证明了贝多芬在音乐领域的过人之处,再结合第一段“Beethoven is a giant of classical music. And the one with the most influence at least when it comes to piano compositions. That’s according to a study in the journal EPJ Data Science. (贝多芬是古典音乐的巨匠。至少在钢琴创作方面是最有影响力的。这是根据《EPJ数据科学》杂志上的一项研究得出的结论)”可知,D项“计算机分析证实贝多芬的影响”可以作为本文最佳标题。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国民间故事的特点、历史背景及其对文化理解的重要性。
56. 考查定语从句。句意:西方童话通常与特定的作者有关,与之不同的是,中国的民间故事已经口头流传了几个世纪,适应了当地的习俗和信仰。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是Western fairy tales,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which引导。故填which。
57. 考查时态语态。句意:直到唐宋时期,这些故事才以文字形式记录下来,让人们得以一窥古代中国的思想和价值观。these tales与record是被动关系,应用被动语态,且动作发生在过去,应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数,be动词使用were。故填were recorded。
58. 考查非谓语动词。句意:中国民间故事是幻想与现实的混合体,从历史事件、宗教信仰和文化实践中汲取灵感。此处作伴随状语,动作与主句同时发生,应用现在分词,表示主动、进行。故填drawing。

60. 考查冠词。句意:一旦接触到这些故事,你就能对中国的文化有深刻的理解,并且有一种独特而愉快的学习语言的方式。此处泛指“一种独特而愉快的学习语言的方式”,且unique以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。故填a。
61. 考查连词。句意:无论你是语言爱好者还是单纯的故事爱好者,中国民间故事和传说都能为每个人提供一些东西。此处连接两个并列成分,表示选择关系,应用连词or,且构成固定句型Whether...or...“无论……还是……”。故填or。
62. 考查动词时态。句意:句意:因此,准备好被带入一个故事的世界,这些故事至今已经经受住了时间的考验。根据by now可知,应用现在完成时,表示动作从过去持续到现在,that替代先行词tales在定语从句中作主语,助动词应用have。故填have stood。
63. 考查名词。句意:你不仅会对中国文化的丰富性有更深的理解,还会发现自己对流传了几个世纪的智慧感到欢笑、哭泣和惊讶。此处作宾语,应用名词appreciation “理解”,空前有不定冠词a,应用名词单数形式。故填appreciation。
64. 考查形容词。句意:你不仅会对中国文化的丰富性有更深的理解,还会发现自己对流传了几个世纪的智慧感到欢笑、哭泣和惊讶。此处用形容词作宾语补足语,修饰人,表示“感到惊讶的”,故填amazed。
65. 考查副词。句意:你甚至可能在这个过程中学到一些有用的中文短语,愉快地阅读和学习!此处修饰动词reading and learning,应用副词happily“愉快地”,作状语。故填happily。

Learn From Failure
Failure is inevitable in everyone’s life. The problem that many of us face, however, is that we automatically equate experiencing failure with being a failure. We feel frustrated or despaired in face of failure, but it may be an educational lesson in certain ways.
I used to be an interest - driven learner, only willing to explore in the fields that I was passionate about as deep as I could. While learning in this way did make me feel comfortable, it led to a harmful imbalance between my grades of different subjects, some of which I failed afterwards. Nevertheless, I was not discouraged and made up my mind to change my learning habits. Before long, I became skilled at subjects that I completely ignored in the past.
Despite that dreadful failure, I stood up where I fell. Therefore, failure gives us an opportunity to learn, adapt and grow. Just as the famous quotation from Churchill goes: Failure is not fatal, what matters most is the courage to carry on. So learn your lessons of life.

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。
Hanson was a 6 Grade student in Pine Tree Primary School. He was known for his kindness and lively spirit. Hanson had a heart of gold; he loved helping others, which made him a favorite among his teachers and classmates. His academic performance was commendable, and punctuality was one of his strongest virtues. For instance, no matter the weather — be it a scorching hot day or a chilly, rainy morning — Hanson would always be the first to arrive at school, his backpack slung over one shoulder, a bright smile lighting up his face.
However, despite his many admirable qualities, Hanson harbored a secret fear: dogs. Ever since he was a little boy, the mere sight of a dog could send shivers down his spine. One particular memory stood out vividly in his mind. It was a sunny afternoon when he was playing in the park with his friends. Suddenly, a large, friendly-looking dog approached them, wagging its tail. While the other children laughed and played with the dog, Hanson froze, feeling a mix of fear and embarrassment. From that day on, he avoided any situation where he might encounter a dog, even if it meant taking a longer route home from school.
One day, Hanson woke up early as usual, ready to start another day at school. As he walked along the busy street, his eyes were fixed on the path ahead, determined not to be late. But then, something unusual caught his attention. A small puppy was wandering alone in the middle of the road, running nervously among cars. The traffic was heavy, and the danger was apparent. Without a second thought, Hanson’s fear of dogs was overshadowed by his concern for the puppy’s safety. He knew what he had to do.
Ignoring his own fear, Hanson bravely stepped into the road, calling softly to the puppy. With gentle hands, he picked up the trembling puppy and carried it to the side of the road. He looked around, hoping to spot the puppy’s owner, but there was no sign of anyone. Time ticked away, and Hanson realized he was going to be late for school. However, the puppy’s well-being was more important than being punctual. After waiting for a while with no luck, Hanson became a little anxious. He couldn’t wait there for long.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then, Hanson had an idea.

From that day forward, Hanson’s fear of dogs totally faded.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Then, Hanson had an idea. He decided to take the puppy to a nearby shop, explaining the situation to the shopkeeper and asking him to look after the puppy until its owner could be found. The rest of the school day seemed to drag on for Hanson. All he could think about was the little puppy. As soon as the final bell rang, Hanson rushed back to the shop. To his dismay, the puppy was nowhere to be seen. His heart sank, and he anxiously asked the shopkeeper about the puppy. Relief washed over him when the shopkeeper explained that he had managed to find the puppy’s owner. The owner was so grateful that they had asked the shopkeeper to convey their heartfelt thanks to Hanson.
From that day forward, Hanson’s fear of dogs totally faded. He felt a sense of joy and pride, not just because he had overcome his fear of dogs, but because he had helped a vulnerable creature in need. He is never afraid of dogs anymore. He even asked his parents to buy a dog for him. The experience taught him that sometimes, the most rewarding moments come from stepping outside of one’s comfort zone and doing what is right, regardless of personal fears. And so, Hanson continued to live his life with courage and compassion, ready to lend a helping hand whenever and wherever it was needed.

72 hours in Beijing
Traveling to China is no longer a luxury for many foreign passport holders. The Chinese government has permitted a 72-hour visa-free policy that offers access to visitors from 53 countries including the US, France and Austria. Let’s start with the capital of China, Beijing. Here’s the pick of the best in Beijing.
Mutianyu Great Wall
Your trip to Beijing isn’t really complete without seeing one of the “New Seven Wonders of the World”-the Great Wall of China. The Mutianyu section of the Great Wall is by far the most well-preserved of all. Taking a one-hour bus ride, Mutianyu would be your ideal location for a half-day of hiking away from the large crowds in the city. Also, the authorities have allowed tourists to paint graffiti on a specific section of the Great Wall since 2014. The Great Wall was designated (把……定名为) a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.
Summer Palace
Located in northwestern Beijing, the Summer Palace is by far the city’s most well- preserved royal park. With its huge lake and hilltop views, the palace offers you a pastoral escape into the landscape of traditional Chinese paintings. The Summer Palace was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998.
798 Art Zone
This would be on the top of my list! Named after the 798 factory that was built in the 1950s, the art zone is home to various galleries, design studios, art exhibition spaces, fashionable shops and bars. You could easily spend half your day wandering around the complex, feeling the contrast of the present and the past.
Sichuan Provincial Restaurant
While in Beijing, apart from trying the city’s best-known Peking duck, the Sichuan provincial restaurant is one of places where you can enjoy regional delicious food. It offers one of China’s eight great cuisines, Sichuan cuisine, which ranges from Mapo tofu to spicy chicken.
21. When was the Summer Palace added to the UNESCO World Heritage List?
A. In 1950. B. In 1987. C. In 1998. D. In 2014.
22. Which place is the author’s first choice when visiting Beijing?
A. Mutianyu Great Wall. B. 798 Art Zone.
C. The Summer Palace. D. The Sichuan Provincial Restaurant.
23. Who is the passage intended for?
A. The foreigners to stay in Beijing for 3 days.
B. The tourists who prefer to travel for free.
C. The visitors coming from every corner of China.
D. The foreigners coming to Beijing for the first time.
B
Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature—not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.
If the task was as a strange one, it’s because the act of memorizing a poem feels curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. When I was in graduate school, working toward a degree in English literature, I mostly limited myself to essays. It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem. Sometimes I spoke its lines aloud, my voice masked by the airplane’s thrum. Sometimes I went through the whole poem at once, and sometimes I repeated a single stanza (诗节) over and over, and by the time my plane landed on the West Coast, I had the whole thing, all 40 lines of it, in my head. Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you run your hands through the rock, the lines at last come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure.
In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.
Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know that if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep beating in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.
24.Why did Robert L. Hass advise students to read poems?
A.To become literature professors. B.To prepare for the coming exams.
C.To compose more original poems. D.To relieve their future loneliness.
25.Why does the author say that memorizing a poem begins as a crime?
A.It’s out of date to recite poems. B.Repetition wastes a lot of time.
C.Repetition ruins the poem’s beauty. D.It’s a shame to read poems on plane.
26.How does understanding poetry influence us?
A.By broadening self-understanding. B.By refreshing our good memories.
C.By helping us survive the hard life. D.By reminding us to forget the past.
27.What is the author’s attitude towards memorizing poetry in the last paragraph?
A.Doubtful. B.Reserved. C.Appreciative. D.Critical.
C
Hummingbirds are the Olympic gymnasts in the world of birds. They zip around at remarkable speeds, hover (悬停) in place and fly in all directions, including backward and while upside down. To achieve such agility (敏捷), hummingbirds use distinct modes of visual processing to control different types of flight, researchers report in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. In particular, the scientists uncovered a seemingly unique mode that guides hummingbirds’ speed when they are flying forward.
The findings come from an analysis of more than 3,500 hummingbird flights inside a 12-foot-long tunnel with a resting spot at one end and a feeder at the other. Moving patterns projected on the tunnel walls dominated the hummingbirds’ sense of optic flow — the perceived motion of surroundings while traveling through the world. The speed of that motion, called pattern velocity, is a key visual cue (线索) that many animals use to adjust their own speed and position as they move.
The researchers expected that if the hummingbirds were using pattern velocity cues to control their forward flight speed, they would see the birds speed or slow in line with vertical stripes projected on the side walls. But instead “it seemed more the case that they have their own internal speed meter” for forward flight, says study co-author Vikram Baliga, a comparative physiologist at the University of British Columbia.
Any movement that challenged the hummingbirds’ expectations of how their surroundings should change slowed the birds down — even vertical stripes moving toward the feeder, which the researchers expected would make them speed up. When hovering or moving up or down, however, the birds based their motor commands on the projected patterns they saw.
The ability to switch between these different flight modes highlights a hummingbird’s unique agility, says Doug Altshuler, a zoologist at the University of British Columbia specializing in complex locomotion. Hummingbird brains have evolved to make rapid transitions from visual signals to motor outputs. “They excel at taking in lots of complicated visual information and making a safe flight plan out of that.”
28. What is the key discovery about hummingbirds’ flight control?
A. It relies entirely on optic flow. B. It uses distinct visual strategies.
C. It navigates by feeder locations. D. It adjusts flight via vertical stripes.
29. Why were moving patterns projected in the tunnel?
A. To test light sensitivity. B. To study optic flow’s role.
C. To measure maximum speed. D. To observe feeding behavior.
30. What can be inferred about hummingbirds’ forward flight control from paragraph 3?
A. Muscle strength drives their flight. B. Vertical stripes guide their navigation.
C. Their speed matches projected patterns. D. Their speed adjustments are self-regulated.
31. According to Altshuler, hummingbirds achieve remarkable flight agility by .
A. processing visual data efficiently B. reacting to visual feedback instantly
C. following fixed flight routes completely D. using an internal speedometer consistently
D
Beethoven is a giant of classical music. And the one with the most influence at least when it comes to piano compositions. That’s according to a study in the journal EPJ Data Science.
If you’re wondering how data analysis could determine something as abstract as cultural influence, it’s worth remembering the great thing about music: it’s the most mathematical of the art forms we actually can deal with because a lot of it is symbolic. The music is written in symbols that are connected in time.
Juyong Park is a theoretical physicist at the Korea Advanced institute of Science and Technology. Park and his colleagues collected 900 piano compositions by 19 composers covering the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, from 1700 to 1910. Then they used that mathematical quality to their advantage by dividing each composition into what they called “code words,” a group of notes played at the same time—in other words, a chord. They then compared each chord to the chords that came before it. “Our computer model allows us to calculate the degree of shared melodies between past and future works.” said Park.
The composer with top marks for novelty was Rachmaninoff. But when the researchers looked at those chord transitions across all 19 composers, it was Beethoven who was most heavily borrowed from—meaning, at least among the composers in this analysis, his influence was the largest.
Their study comes with a couple caveats. The researchers only considered piano compositions in this work—-not orchestral works. And by only studying chord transitions, their conclusions wouldn’t capture artists who had influence in other ways. “It’s well understood that Mozart’s contribution to music mainly comes from the musical forms that he devised. That was not very well captured by our mathematical modeling.”
32. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. They turned music compositions into written symbols.
B. They looked at how chords differed from previous ones.
C. They collected 900 pieces from contemporary composer.
D. They calculated the number of chords in each music piece.
33. What can be known from the research findings?
A. Beethoven was best at coming up with new chords.
B. Beethoven borrowed heavily from another composer.
C. Rachmaninoff’s chords were most unlike previous ones.
D. Rachmaninoff’s chords were copied by future composers.
34. What does he underlined word “caveats” probably mean?
A. warnings B. benefits C. costs D. proofs
35. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Beethoven Regarded as a Giant of Classical Music.
B. Similarity between Music and Math Investigated.
C. Beethoven’s Major Musical Contribution Confirmed.
D. Computer Analyses Confirm Beethoven’s Influence.

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。
Hanson was a 6 Grade student in Pine Tree Primary School. He was known for his kindness and lively spirit. Hanson had a heart of gold; he loved helping others, which made him a favorite among his teachers and classmates. His academic performance was commendable, and punctuality was one of his strongest virtues. For instance, no matter the weather — be it a scorching hot day or a chilly, rainy morning — Hanson would always be the first to arrive at school, his backpack slung over one shoulder, a bright smile lighting up his face.
However, despite his many admirable qualities, Hanson harbored a secret fear: dogs. Ever since he was a little boy, the mere sight of a dog could send shivers down his spine. One particular memory stood out vividly in his mind. It was a sunny afternoon when he was playing in the park with his friends. Suddenly, a large, friendly-looking dog approached them, wagging its tail. While the other children laughed and played with the dog, Hanson froze, feeling a mix of fear and embarrassment. From that day on, he avoided any situation where he might encounter a dog, even if it meant taking a longer route home from school.
One day, Hanson woke up early as usual, ready to start another day at school. As he walked along the busy street, his eyes were fixed on the path ahead, determined not to be late. But then, something unusual caught his attention. A small puppy was wandering alone in the middle of the road, running nervously among cars. The traffic was heavy, and the danger was apparent. Without a second thought, Hanson’s fear of dogs was overshadowed by his concern for the puppy’s safety. He knew what he had to do.
Ignoring his own fear, Hanson bravely stepped into the road, calling softly to the puppy. With gentle hands, he picked up the trembling puppy and carried it to the side of the road. He looked around, hoping to spot the puppy’s owner, but there was no sign of anyone. Time ticked away, and Hanson realized he was going to be late for school. However, the puppy’s well-being was more important than being punctual. After waiting for a while with no luck, Hanson became a little anxious. He couldn’t wait there for long.

72 hours in Beijing
Traveling to China is no longer a luxury for many foreign passport holders. The Chinese government has permitted a 72-hour visa-free policy that offers access to visitors from 53 countries including the US, France and Austria. Let’s start with the capital of China, Beijing. Here’s the pick of the best in Beijing.
Mutianyu Great Wall
Your trip to Beijing isn’t really complete without seeing one of the “New Seven Wonders of the World”-the Great Wall of China. The Mutianyu section of the Great Wall is by far the most well-preserved of all. Taking a one-hour bus ride, Mutianyu would be your ideal location for a half-day of hiking away from the large crowds in the city. Also, the authorities have allowed tourists to paint graffiti on a specific section of the Great Wall since 2014. The Great Wall was designated (把……定名为) a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987.
Summer Palace
Located in northwestern Beijing, the Summer Palace is by far the city’s most well- preserved royal park. With its huge lake and hilltop views, the palace offers you a pastoral escape into the landscape of traditional Chinese paintings. The Summer Palace was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998.
798 Art Zone
This would be on the top of my list! Named after the 798 factory that was built in the 1950s, the art zone is home to various galleries, design studios, art exhibition spaces, fashionable shops and bars. You could easily spend half your day wandering around the complex, feeling the contrast of the present and the past.
Sichuan Provincial Restaurant
While in Beijing, apart from trying the city’s best-known Peking duck, the Sichuan provincial restaurant is one of places where you can enjoy regional delicious food. It offers one of China’s eight great cuisines, Sichuan cuisine, which ranges from Mapo tofu to spicy chicken.
21. When was the Summer Palace added to the UNESCO World Heritage List?
A. In 1950. B. In 1987. C. In 1998. D. In 2014.
22. Which place is the author’s first choice when visiting Beijing?
A. Mutianyu Great Wall. B. 798 Art Zone.
C. The Summer Palace. D. The Sichuan Provincial Restaurant.
23. Who is the passage intended for?
A. The foreigners to stay in Beijing for 3 days.
B. The tourists who prefer to travel for free.
C. The visitors coming from every corner of China.
D. The foreigners coming to Beijing for the first time.
B
Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature—not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.
If the task was as a strange one, it’s because the act of memorizing a poem feels curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. When I was in graduate school, working toward a degree in English literature, I mostly limited myself to essays. It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem. Sometimes I spoke its lines aloud, my voice masked by the airplane’s thrum. Sometimes I went through the whole poem at once, and sometimes I repeated a single stanza (诗节) over and over, and by the time my plane landed on the West Coast, I had the whole thing, all 40 lines of it, in my head. Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime. The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you run your hands through the rock, the lines at last come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure.
In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.
Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know that if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep beating in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become.
24.Why did Robert L. Hass advise students to read poems?
A.To become literature professors. B.To prepare for the coming exams.
C.To compose more original poems. D.To relieve their future loneliness.
25.Why does the author say that memorizing a poem begins as a crime?
A.It’s out of date to recite poems. B.Repetition wastes a lot of time.
C.Repetition ruins the poem’s beauty. D.It’s a shame to read poems on plane.
26.How does understanding poetry influence us?
A.By broadening self-understanding. B.By refreshing our good memories.
C.By helping us survive the hard life. D.By reminding us to forget the past.
27.What is the author’s attitude towards memorizing poetry in the last paragraph?
A.Doubtful. B.Reserved. C.Appreciative. D.Critical.
C
Hummingbirds are the Olympic gymnasts in the world of birds. They zip around at remarkable speeds, hover (悬停) in place and fly in all directions, including backward and while upside down. To achieve such agility (敏捷), hummingbirds use distinct modes of visual processing to control different types of flight, researchers report in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. In particular, the scientists uncovered a seemingly unique mode that guides hummingbirds’ speed when they are flying forward.
The findings come from an analysis of more than 3,500 hummingbird flights inside a 12-foot-long tunnel with a resting spot at one end and a feeder at the other. Moving patterns projected on the tunnel walls dominated the hummingbirds’ sense of optic flow — the perceived motion of surroundings while traveling through the world. The speed of that motion, called pattern velocity, is a key visual cue (线索) that many animals use to adjust their own speed and position as they move.
The researchers expected that if the hummingbirds were using pattern velocity cues to control their forward flight speed, they would see the birds speed or slow in line with vertical stripes projected on the side walls. But instead “it seemed more the case that they have their own internal speed meter” for forward flight, says study co-author Vikram Baliga, a comparative physiologist at the University of British Columbia.
Any movement that challenged the hummingbirds’ expectations of how their surroundings should change slowed the birds down — even vertical stripes moving toward the feeder, which the researchers expected would make them speed up. When hovering or moving up or down, however, the birds based their motor commands on the projected patterns they saw.
The ability to switch between these different flight modes highlights a hummingbird’s unique agility, says Doug Altshuler, a zoologist at the University of British Columbia specializing in complex locomotion. Hummingbird brains have evolved to make rapid transitions from visual signals to motor outputs. “They excel at taking in lots of complicated visual information and making a safe flight plan out of that.”
28. What is the key discovery about hummingbirds’ flight control?
A. It relies entirely on optic flow. B. It uses distinct visual strategies.
C. It navigates by feeder locations. D. It adjusts flight via vertical stripes.
29. Why were moving patterns projected in the tunnel?
A. To test light sensitivity. B. To study optic flow’s role.
C. To measure maximum speed. D. To observe feeding behavior.
30. What can be inferred about hummingbirds’ forward flight control from paragraph 3?
A. Muscle strength drives their flight. B. Vertical stripes guide their navigation.
C. Their speed matches projected patterns. D. Their speed adjustments are self-regulated.
31. According to Altshuler, hummingbirds achieve remarkable flight agility by .
A. processing visual data efficiently B. reacting to visual feedback instantly
C. following fixed flight routes completely D. using an internal speedometer consistently
D
Beethoven is a giant of classical music. And the one with the most influence at least when it comes to piano compositions. That’s according to a study in the journal EPJ Data Science.
If you’re wondering how data analysis could determine something as abstract as cultural influence, it’s worth remembering the great thing about music: it’s the most mathematical of the art forms we actually can deal with because a lot of it is symbolic. The music is written in symbols that are connected in time.
Juyong Park is a theoretical physicist at the Korea Advanced institute of Science and Technology. Park and his colleagues collected 900 piano compositions by 19 composers covering the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods, from 1700 to 1910. Then they used that mathematical quality to their advantage by dividing each composition into what they called “code words,” a group of notes played at the same time—in other words, a chord. They then compared each chord to the chords that came before it. “Our computer model allows us to calculate the degree of shared melodies between past and future works.” said Park.
The composer with top marks for novelty was Rachmaninoff. But when the researchers looked at those chord transitions across all 19 composers, it was Beethoven who was most heavily borrowed from—meaning, at least among the composers in this analysis, his influence was the largest.
Their study comes with a couple caveats. The researchers only considered piano compositions in this work—-not orchestral works. And by only studying chord transitions, their conclusions wouldn’t capture artists who had influence in other ways. “It’s well understood that Mozart’s contribution to music mainly comes from the musical forms that he devised. That was not very well captured by our mathematical modeling.”
32. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. They turned music compositions into written symbols.
B. They looked at how chords differed from previous ones.
C. They collected 900 pieces from contemporary composer.
D. They calculated the number of chords in each music piece.
33. What can be known from the research findings?
A. Beethoven was best at coming up with new chords.
B. Beethoven borrowed heavily from another composer.
C. Rachmaninoff’s chords were most unlike previous ones.
D. Rachmaninoff’s chords were copied by future composers.
34. What does he underlined word “caveats” probably mean?
A. warnings B. benefits C. costs D. proofs
35. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. Beethoven Regarded as a Giant of Classical Music.
B. Similarity between Music and Math Investigated.
C. Beethoven’s Major Musical Contribution Confirmed.
D. Computer Analyses Confirm Beethoven’s Influence.

Hanson was a 6 Grade student in Pine Tree Primary School. He was known for his kindness and lively spirit. Hanson had a heart of gold; he loved helping others, which made him a favorite among his teachers and classmates. His academic performance was commendable, and punctuality was one of his strongest virtues. For instance, no matter the weather — be it a scorching hot day or a chilly, rainy morning — Hanson would always be the first to arrive at school, his backpack slung over one shoulder, a bright smile lighting up his face.
However, despite his many admirable qualities, Hanson harbored a secret fear: dogs. Ever since he was a little boy, the mere sight of a dog could send shivers down his spine. One particular memory stood out vividly in his mind. It was a sunny afternoon when he was playing in the park with his friends. Suddenly, a large, friendly-looking dog approached them, wagging its tail. While the other children laughed and played with the dog, Hanson froze, feeling a mix of fear and embarrassment. From that day on, he avoided any situation where he might encounter a dog, even if it meant taking a longer route home from school.
One day, Hanson woke up early as usual, ready to start another day at school. As he walked along the busy street, his eyes were fixed on the path ahead, determined not to be late. But then, something unusual caught his attention. A small puppy was wandering alone in the middle of the road, running nervously among cars. The traffic was heavy, and the danger was apparent. Without a second thought, Hanson’s fear of dogs was overshadowed by his concern for the puppy’s safety. He knew what he had to do.
Ignoring his own fear, Hanson bravely stepped into the road, calling softly to the puppy. With gentle hands, he picked up the trembling puppy and carried it to the side of the road. He looked around, hoping to spot the puppy’s owner, but there was no sign of anyone. Time ticked away, and Hanson realized he was going to be late for school. However, the puppy’s well-being was more important than being punctual. After waiting for a while with no luck, Hanson became a little anxious. He couldn’t wait there for long.
