Grammar and Vocabulary （每题1分；共20分） Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Winning Doesn’t Equal Success John Wooden was a celebrated basketball coach, who led his team to 10 championships over the course of 12 years. The team’s seven-year winning record still 21 (remain) unbroken. Wooden also received numerous coaching awards throughout his career. Do all those wins equal success? Wooden would be the first to say 22 don’t. In a TED talk, titled “The difference between winning and success,” Wooden offered his take on 23 it means to succeed. Wooden noted that Webster’s dictionary defines success as “the amassing of material possessions or the fulfilment of a position of power.” This didn’t work for him. Wooden said that success was peace of mind 24 (get) only through self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best of which you’re capable. Simply, if you have tried your best, then you have succeeded regardless of the outcomes. This attitude 25 (see) in Wooden’s coaching. He believed that his players were students first and athletes second. More than creating a winning team, he wanted to create individuals 26 would succeed off the court. He had three rules for his players: never be late, be neat and clean, and never criticize a teammate. If someone showed up late, Wooden would not let them 27 (play) even if they were the best on the team. He believed in building character, which would impact his players long 28 they stopped playing basketball. Wooden also came up with a “pyramid of success.” 29 cornerstones at the base were industriousness and enthusiasm, and at the top, faith and patience. These were marks of success for Wooden, and winning 30 them meant that you hadn’t actually succeeded. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．devoting   B．expectation   C． academic   D．disappointment   E. lasting   F. effort   G. bear   H. join   I. behavior   J. experience   K. laughter The below advice is really all about life lessons. We have to learn to value ourselves for our unique talents and be our biggest fans. Grades do not define you. Grades on a piece of paper do not define your intelligence or your future. Put your best 31 into your schoolwork,but also give yourself a break if you don’t do well enough to meet your 32 . There are so many other ways to be successful that do not involve grades — being a loyal friend, 33 yourself to theater or sports, or learning how to make life decisions with confidence. Learn from your relationships. Not all relationships will work out, but every single one will be a learning 34 . If you’re having trouble making friends, 35 club or sports team that interests you. And 36 in mind that other freshmen are just as nervous as you are about starting high school. But also remember that not everyone finds lifelong friends in high school. You will have many more chances in life to build 37 friendships, so don’t beat yourself up (自责) if you feel like you’re not forming deep connections. Everything passes. Bad days in high school can feel like the end of the world, but they’re not. These years will be mere memories one day. Enjoy the moments of joy — 38 achievements, 39 with close friends, meeting people who make you smile, finding a hobby you’re passionate about — but don’t dwell on (老想着) the moments of 40 . If you feel lost or hurt, confide in (向……倾诉) the people who love you. III. Reading Comprehension (41 – 55题，每题1分；56 – 70题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And unless otherwise assigned a seat by the teacher, I always 41 to sit at the back of the classroom. All this 42 after I joined a sports team. It begin when a teacher 43 I should try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a(n) 44 idea because I didn’t have a good sense of balance. Nor did I have the team ability to keep pace with the others on the team and they would laugh at me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “going for it,” I wouldn’t have decided to give a try. Taking the 45 to go to the tryouts was only the half of it! When I first started attending the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game. Sometimes I would get 46 and take a shot at the wrong direction -- which made me feel really stupid. 47 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the games, so I decided to 48 learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t know “just yet.” I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 49 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and exciting. Very soon the competitive part in me was winning over my 50 confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the process -- friends who 51 my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun! With my improved self-confidence comes more 52 from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “ 53 ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call 54 to myself, to raising my hand -- even when I sometimes am not 100 percent 55 I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself. 41．A．hesitated B．chose C．declined D．turned 42．A．reflected B．remained C．changed D．ruined 43．A．admitted B．objected C．suggested D．considered 44．A．crazy B．funny C．interesting D．wonderful 45．A．signal B．impression C．courage D．hesitation 46．A．confused B．bored C．assisted D．frightened 47．A．Effectively B．Regularly C．Historically D．Fortunately 48．A．glance at B．concentrate on C．apply for D．account for 49．A．rules B．structures C．remarks D．gestures 50．A．preference to B．overuse of C．lack of D．awareness of 51．A．experienced B．included C．involved D．respected 52．A．stress B．praise C．energy D．sigh 53．A．sealing B．lasting C．attracting D．hiding 54．A．attention B．authority C．hostility D．damage 55．A．depressed B．regretful C．pleased D．sure Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Lakshmi spends hours every day digging up large yams (山药) that grow under the soil. Some yams weigh 5 kg and are almost as tall as she is. Lakshmi says this work is very hard. Lakshmi lives in Kerala, a state in southern India. She is part of an all-women group called Noorang. The women in Noorang belong to one of Kerala’s oldest tribes (部落). They are trying to save yams. These yams have grown on their land for many years. But yams are no longer a main diet among tribal communities in Kerala due to their rapidly changing lifestyle. Young people have many other foods to eat, like rice and wheat. They do not think yams are special anymore. Bad weather also hurts yam harvests. In the past, floods and landslides caused many yams to die. Recently, there was a sharp decline in lands dedicated to yam production in Kerala, with many of these being changed to the more rubber cultivation instead. “The women grow yams to feed their families and to keep these rare yams from disappearing,” says Lakshmi. “We believe yams can cure some illnesses,” says Shantha, another member of Noorang. “Many mothers here think yams are good for the stomach.” Since 2022, the Noorang group has brought back 180 kinds of wild yams. They have fifteen kinds of wild yams, three kinds of elephant yams, eight kinds of Colocasias, seven kinds of sweet potatoes, and one kind of Chinese potato. “Our goal is to save rare yams and grow more,” says Sarasu, a member of Noorang. 56．What is the Noorang’s main task? A．Getting more people to eat yams. B．Selling yams for more profits. C．Protecting ancient types of yams. D．Growing yams instead of rubber. 57．Why are yams no longer a main diet for locals? A．People didn’t realize their nutrition. B．Local people’s lifestyle has changed. C．Yams have gone from the region. D．Yams are now a fancy food. 58．What caused yam production to drop greatly recently? A．Flooding and deadly landslides. B．A ban on yam cultivation. C．The introduction of new yams. D．The shift to rubber cultivation. 59．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．The project’s great achievement. B．The market prediction of yams. C．The added nutrition to the variety. D．The project ‘s great motivation. (B) As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration. Zhoukoudian, Beijing Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago. Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years. The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers. The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC). Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world. The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire. 60．Which site reflects the earliest human? A．Zhoukoudian. B．The Yinxu Ruins. C．The Daming Palace. D．Sanxingdui Ruins site. 61．What is the Yinxu Ruins known for? A．The grand architecture. B．Oracle bone inscriptions. C．Royal palace in the Tang Dynasty. D．The remains of the Shu Kingdom. 62．Where can the text probably be found? A．In a novel. B．In a biography. C．In a history book. D．In a guidebook. (C) Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world — Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey — rats will soon be man’s new best friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat. How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person. Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity! The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course)． 63．In the world’s earthquake capitals, rats will become man’s best friends because they can  ________ . A．take the place of man’s rescue jobs B．find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildings C．serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings D．get into small spaces 64．From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person who is alive by  ________ . A．the noise made by the rat B．the rat’s unusual behaviour C．the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s back D．the smell given off by the person 65．In doing rescue jobs, ________ . A．rats smell better than dogs B．dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people C．robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around D．rats can see in the dark and are smaller than robots 66．Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that  ______ . A．they are more fantastic than other animals B．they are less expensive to train than dogs C．they don’t need electricity D．they are small and can get into small places Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Good News for Gamers Video games can sometimes have a bad reputation because they keep people indoors and looking at a screen instead of talking and playing with others face to face. 67 Scientists from the University of Vermont used data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) scheme, which is a study of brain development and health of children in the US as they move into adulthood. The results were taken from 2,217 children aged nine or 10. They were divided into two groups: young people who never play video games and those who play them for three or more hours a day. The young people were set two tasks. The first one measured their reaction times by seeing how quickly they could press buttons that matched images on a screen. The second test involved using their memory. 68 During the tests, their brains were scanned with fMRI, which uses magnets to measure brain activity. The people who played video games were consistently better at the two tasks, and the fMRI scans showed that they also had more activity in the parts of their brains that look after memory and attention. 69 However, it’s important to note that researchers don’t yet know if gaming improved their memory and reactions, or if they already had good memories and reactions and therefore enjoyed gaming and played a lot. 70 The team could also perhaps find out in future if particular types of video games affect people’s brain activity differently. The lead scientist on the study, Bader Chaarani says that too much screen time is not good for people’s mental well being or physical health. It is still very important to spend time outdoors in the fresh air, taking exercise and having fun with friends and family. A．This means that people who play video games show more brain activity. B．Compared with scrolling through videos on YouTube, playing video games surely makes brain more active. C．However, a new study has revealed that video games might be good for brain development in young people. D．Not all of gaming’s effects on the brain are positive despite the activated brain. E．The scientists are hoping to carry on studying the same young people as they get older to track the effects of gaming. F．They were shown pictures of people’s faces and then, a bit later, were shown more and had to say if any of the faces were the same. IV.

Green’s aim was to provide a pleasant, quiet and spacious shopping environment with large car parks, which usually meant building in suburbs. He also wanted people to be able to shop in all kinds of weather. He insisted on using building designs that he knew people would feel comfortable with, but please them in landscaped streets that were entirely enclosed and often covered with a curved glass roof. This was done to imitate some of the older shopping areas of city centers. But while these housed only small specialty shops, Green’s shopping malls were on a much grander scale. Access to the whole shopping mass was gained by using the main doors, which separated the shopping streets from the parking areas outside. As there was no need to keep out bad weather, shops no longer needed windows and doors and people could wander freely from shop to shop. In many cities shopping malls now contain much more than just shops. Cinemas, restaurants and other forms of entertainment are also growing in popularity. 11. What is the passage mainly about? 12. Which of the following is true according to Victor Green’s idea of shopping malls? 13. Why did shops in malls no longer need windows and doors?

D．Old-fashioned and complex. 【答案】14．D 15．A 16．A 【原文】 Many people would agree that the London Underground map is extremely well-designed. It is not only simple and easy to understand but also quite attractive. And most importantly, it performs its primary task of guiding both Londoners and tourists round the underground system in the city very well. The man behind this great achievement was called Henry Beck. He was an employee of the London underground drawing office, and first came up with his design for the map in 1931. The map which had been in use before 1931 was messy and unclear. Beck decided that a traditional map which gave accurate information about distance was not necessary for the underground, and instead produced a diagram which showed only the stations on the underground system. This new map was an enormous success with the public. When in 1933, it made its first appearance on the underground platforms and at the station entrances. The design of the map showed great originality because it provided a very clear representation of a highly complex network of communication. Beck’s approach was later adopted by most of the world underground system. 14. What is the passage mainly about? 15. Which element of the old map didn’t appear on Henry Beck’s map? 16. What does the speaker think of the design of the map? Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. 17．A．To fight against violent action. B．To explore new ways of studying animals. C．To stop animal being used for medical research. D．To highlight the protection of endangered animals. 18．A．It might be the most efficient way to free animals B．The damage done in this case might not be so terrible. C．It might not be such a serious crime in the eyes of the law. D．The cost of setting up the lab might discourage the firm from doing so. 19．A．Evidence was found that no actual animal cruelty did happen. B．Evidence was found that the scientists didn’t obey certain rules. C．The scientists couldn’t afford to find animals again for the research. D．The scientists were believed to have been involved in illegal action. 20．A．It is not their original intention. B．It does bring them much trouble. C．It has made their life difficult. D．It is what they apologize for. 【答案】17．C 18．D 19．B 20．A 【原文】W: Two members of the animal defense group, the ADG, are suspected of being involved in an attack on a medical research laboratory last night. Today I am joined in the studio by Nick Davidson, who is also a member of the ADG, and their spokesperson. Good morning! M: Good morning! W: How can you possibly justify the actions of your colleagues, who broke into the lab last night and caused such criminal damage? M: Well, you say it’s criminal damage, but using animals in experiments is a crime. W: You mean destroying the equipment used to help find cures for diseases isn’t a crime? M: Yes, it is a crime in the eyes of law, but the reason we do that is to make it really expensive for the firms to use animals in experiments. They might think it is too expensive to set up the experiment all over again. W: I see, so you completely support this kind of direct action. M: Absolutely. Direct action is one of the many things you can do to highlight the cause of animal suffering. However, there are also completely peaceful ways of protesting. For example, I am a vegetarian, and I don’t buy anything that has been tested on animals. W: And have you yourself been involved in any type of illegal action? M: Yes. I poured red paint over fur coats in a cloth shop and I have been involved in an attack on a laboratory. W: What happened at the laboratory? M: We broke in and looked for evidence of the animal cruelty involved. The evidence we found actually put a stop to the research in that particular laboratory, because it wasn’t being conducted in an acceptable way. There are rules to be obeyed, even for animal testing. And we found that scientists were not following these rules. W: But this sort of violence just gives the animal rights movement a bad name, doesn’t it? M: We don’t agree with violence. Yes, we make life as difficult as possible for the scientists, but we don’t aim to hurt them. Where people have been accidentally injured, we have apologized as harming people is not our intention. W: I’ll have to stop you there, Mr. Davidson. Thank you for coming in. 17. What is the ADG intended to do? 18. According to the man, why did the ADG members destroy the lab equipment? 19. Why did the scientists stop the research after the man and his colleague broke into their lab? 20. What does the man say about the bad name the ADG action has given to the animal rights movement? II.

Winning Doesn’t Equal Success John Wooden was a celebrated basketball coach, who led his team to 10 championships over the course of 12 years. The team’s seven-year winning record still 21 (remain) unbroken. Wooden also received numerous coaching awards throughout his career. Do all those wins equal success? Wooden would be the first to say 22 don’t. In a TED talk, titled “The difference between winning and success,” Wooden offered his take on 23 it means to succeed. Wooden noted that Webster’s dictionary defines success as “the amassing of material possessions or the fulfilment of a position of power.” This didn’t work for him. Wooden said that success was peace of mind 24 (get) only through self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best of which you’re capable. Simply, if you have tried your best, then you have succeeded regardless of the outcomes. This attitude 25 (see) in Wooden’s coaching. He believed that his players were students first and athletes second. More than creating a winning team, he wanted to create individuals 26 would succeed off the court. He had three rules for his players: never be late, be neat and clean, and never criticize a teammate. If someone showed up late, Wooden would not let them 27 (play) even if they were the best on the team. He believed in building character, which would impact his players long 28 they stopped playing basketball. Wooden also came up with a “pyramid of success.” 29 cornerstones at the base were industriousness and enthusiasm, and at the top, faith and patience. These were marks of success for Wooden, and winning 30 them meant that you hadn’t actually succeeded. 【答案】 21．remains 22．they 23．what 24．got 25．was seen 26．who/that 27．play 28．after 29．The/Its 30．without 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了著名篮球教练John Wooden对于成功的独特理解和实践。 21．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：该队保持了七年的胜利记录，至今未被打破。句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语record是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数，故填remains。 22．考查代词。句意：Wooden将是第一个说它们不是的人。空格处用they指代前面的wins，故填they。 23．考查宾语从句。句意：在题为“胜利与成功的区别”的TED演讲中，Wooden提出了他对成功的看法。空格处引导宾语从句，从句中缺少主语，此处表示“他对成功的看法”，因此用what引导宾语从句，故填what。 24．考查非谓语动词。句意：Wooden认为，成功是内心的平静，这种平静只有在你明知自己已竭尽所能发挥出最大潜力，并因此感到自我满足时才能获得。that引导的宾语从句中谓语是was，空格处用非谓语动词，peace of mind和get之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此用过去分词表被动，作后置定语，故填got。 25．考查时态，被动语态和主谓一致。句意：这种态度在Wooden的执教中可见一睹。attitude和see之间是动宾关系，句子描述过去的事情，因此空格处用一般过去时的被动语态，主语This attitude是单数，因此空格处是was seen。故填was seen。 26．考查定语从句。句意：比起打造一支能赢的球队，他更想打造在场外能取得成功的个人。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词individuals是人，因此用关系代词who/that引导定语从句，故填who/that。 27．考查固定短语。句意：如果有人迟到了，Wooden不会让他们上场，即使他们是球队中最好的球员。let sb. do sth.是固定短语，意为“让某人做某事”，不带to的不定式作宾语补足语，因此空格处用原形，故填play。 28．考查连词。句意：他相信要培养球员的性格，这在他们停止打篮球很久之后还会影响他们。此处表示在他们停止打篮球很久之后，空格处意为“在……之后”，是after，故填after。 29．考查代词/冠词。句意：（它的）基石在底层是勤奋和热情，在上层是信心和耐心。空格处用定冠词the特指“成功金字塔”的基石，也可表示“成功金字塔的”基石，空格处意为“它的”，是its，位于句首的单词首字母大写，故填The/Its。 30．考查介词。句意：这些都是Wooden成功的标志，没有它们的胜利意味着你实际上没有成功。根据语境可知，句子表示“这些都是Wooden成功的标志，没有它们的胜利意味着你实际上没有成功”，空格处意为“没有”，用介词without。故填without。 Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Lakshmi spends hours every day digging up large yams (山药) that grow under the soil. Some yams weigh 5 kg and are almost as tall as she is. Lakshmi says this work is very hard. Lakshmi lives in Kerala, a state in southern India. She is part of an all-women group called Noorang. The women in Noorang belong to one of Kerala’s oldest tribes (部落). They are trying to save yams. These yams have grown on their land for many years. But yams are no longer a main diet among tribal communities in Kerala due to their rapidly changing lifestyle. Young people have many other foods to eat, like rice and wheat. They do not think yams are special anymore. Bad weather also hurts yam harvests. In the past, floods and landslides caused many yams to die. Recently, there was a sharp decline in lands dedicated to yam production in Kerala, with many of these being changed to the more rubber cultivation instead. “The women grow yams to feed their families and to keep these rare yams from disappearing,” says Lakshmi. “We believe yams can cure some illnesses,” says Shantha, another member of Noorang. “Many mothers here think yams are good for the stomach.” Since 2022, the Noorang group has brought back 180 kinds of wild yams. They have fifteen kinds of wild yams, three kinds of elephant yams, eight kinds of Colocasias, seven kinds of sweet potatoes, and one kind of Chinese potato. “Our goal is to save rare yams and grow more,” says Sarasu, a member of Noorang. 56．What is the Noorang’s main task? A．Getting more people to eat yams. B．Selling yams for more profits. C．Protecting ancient types of yams. D．Growing yams instead of rubber. 57．Why are yams no longer a main diet for locals? A．People didn’t realize their nutrition. B．Local people’s lifestyle has changed. C．Yams have gone from the region. D．Yams are now a fancy food. 58．What caused yam production to drop greatly recently? A．Flooding and deadly landslides. B．A ban on yam cultivation. C．The introduction of new yams. D．The shift to rubber cultivation. 59．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．The project’s great achievement. B．The market prediction of yams. C．The added nutrition to the variety. D．The project ‘s great motivation. 【答案】56．C 57．B 58．D 59．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了印度喀拉拉邦一个名为Noorang的全女性部落团体努力拯救当地山药的故事，包括山药面临的困境以及该团体所做的努力和取得的成果。 56．细节理解题。根据第二段“They are trying to save yams. These yams have grown on their land for many years. (她们正努力拯救山药。这些山药在她们的土地上生长了许多年)”以及最后一段““Our goal is to save rare yams and grow more,” says Sarasu, a member of Noorang. (“我们的目标是拯救珍稀山药，并种植更多。”Noorang团体的成员Sarasu说)”可知，Noorang的主要任务是保护古老品种的山药。故选C项。 57．细节理解题。根据第三段“But yams are no longer a main diet among tribal communities in Kerala due to their rapidly changing lifestyle. (但由于生活方式的快速变化，山药不再是喀拉拉邦部落社区的主要食物)”可知，山药不再是当地人的主要食物是因为当地人的生活方式发生了改变。故选B项。 58．细节理解题。根据第四段“Recently, there was a sharp decline in lands dedicated to yam production in Kerala, with many of these being changed to the more rubber cultivation instead. (最近，喀拉拉邦用于山药种植的土地急剧减少，其中许多土地被改种了橡胶)”可知，最近山药产量大幅下降的原因是土地转向种植橡胶。故选D项。 59．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Since 2022, the Noorang group has brought back 180 kinds of wild yams. They have fifteen kinds of wild yams, three kinds of elephant yams, eight kinds of Colocasias, seven kinds of sweet potatoes, and one kind of Chinese potato. (自2022年以来，Noorang团体已经找回了180种野生山药。她们有15种野生山药、3种象山药、8种芋类、7种红薯和1种中国马铃薯)”可知，该段主要介绍了Noorang团体在拯救山药方面取得的巨大成果。故选A项。 (B) As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration. Zhoukoudian, Beijing Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago. Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years. The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers. The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC). Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world. The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire. 60．Which site reflects the earliest human? A．Zhoukoudian. B．The Yinxu Ruins. C．The Daming Palace. D．Sanxingdui Ruins site. 61．What is the Yinxu Ruins known for? A．The grand architecture. B．Oracle bone inscriptions. C．Royal palace in the Tang Dynasty. D．The remains of the Shu Kingdom. 62．Where can the text probably be found? A．In a novel. B．In a biography. C．In a history book. D．In a guidebook. 【答案】60．A 61．B 62．D 【导语】本文为一篇应用文，介绍了中国四个值得探索的考古遗址。 60．细节理解题。根据Zhoukoudian, Beijing中“At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago.(在遗址的各个地方，科学家们发掘出了50多万年前的早期人类“北京猿人”，以及生活在3万年前的“山东猿人”)”及其余遗址反映的时间可知，北京周口店遗址能反映出最早的人类信息。故选A。 61．细节理解题。根据The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province中“Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world.(该遗址占地30多平方公里，是迄今为止世界上发现数量最多的甲骨文遗址)”可知，殷墟遗址以甲骨文出名。故选B。 62．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration.(4月18日是国际古迹和遗址日，也被称为世界遗产日，我们在中国选择了四个值得探索的考古遗址)”及全文内容可知，本文介绍了四处考古遗址，可以在一本旅行指南中找到。故选D。 (C) Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world — Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey — rats will soon be man’s new best friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat. How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person. Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity! The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course)． 63．In the world’s earthquake capitals, rats will become man’s best friends because they can  ________ . A．take the place of man’s rescue jobs B．find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildings C．serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings D．get into small spaces 64．From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person who is alive by  ________ . A．the noise made by the rat B．the rat’s unusual behaviour C．the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s back D．the smell given off by the person 65．In doing rescue jobs, ________ . A．rats smell better than dogs B．dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people C．robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around D．rats can see in the dark and are smaller than robots 66．Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that  ______ . A．they are more fantastic than other animals B．they are less expensive to train than dogs C．they don’t need electricity D．they are small and can get into small places 【答案】63．B 64．C 65．C 66．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了用老鼠来寻找在地震中被困的人的优势。 63．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But in the earthquake capitals of the world — Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey — rats will soon be man’s new best friends.(但在世界地震之都——日本、洛杉矶、土耳其——老鼠将很快成为人类最好的新朋友)”和第二段“Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.(狗能拯救生命。它们帮助救援人员寻找幸存者。但是狗很大，它们进不了小空间。因此，现在一项新的研究项目正在使用一种更小的动物来拯救生命：老鼠)”可知，在世界地震之都，老鼠将成为人类最好的朋友，因为它们可以用于所搜被困人员在建筑中的位置。故选B。 64．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive.(这种情况发生时，老鼠的大脑就会发出信号。信号发送到它背上的一个小无线电上，然后救援人员跟踪无线电信号。当老鼠的大脑活动跳跃时，救援人员知道有人还活着)”可知，救援人员是通过老鼠背上的无线电信号判断是否有人存活。故选C。 65．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around.Rats are good at that. (当周围有其他气味时，机器人的鼻子就不太灵光了。而老鼠在这方面很擅长)”可知，在救援工作中，机器人的嗅觉会受到周围其他气味的影响。故选C。 66．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.(但是狗很大，它们进不了小空间。因此，现在一个新的研究项目正在使用一种较小的动物来拯救生命：老鼠)”可知，老鼠可以到更小的地方，故选项D是老鼠的优势；根据第四段中的“They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity (它们比狗更便宜，训练起来也更快，而且不像机器人，它们不需要电力。)”可知，选项B和C都是老鼠的优势。根据第一段中“Everybody hates rats.(每个人都讨厌老鼠)”可知选项A错误。故选A。 Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Good News for Gamers Video games can sometimes have a bad reputation because they keep people indoors and looking at a screen instead of talking and playing with others face to face. 67 Scientists from the University of Vermont used data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) scheme, which is a study of brain development and health of children in the US as they move into adulthood. The results were taken from 2,217 children aged nine or 10. They were divided into two groups: young people who never play video games and those who play them for three or more hours a day. The young people were set two tasks. The first one measured their reaction times by seeing how quickly they could press buttons that matched images on a screen. The second test involved using their memory. 68 During the tests, their brains were scanned with fMRI, which uses magnets to measure brain activity. The people who played video games were consistently better at the two tasks, and the fMRI scans showed that they also had more activity in the parts of their brains that look after memory and attention. 69 However, it’s important to note that researchers don’t yet know if gaming improved their memory and reactions, or if they already had good memories and reactions and therefore enjoyed gaming and played a lot. 70 The team could also perhaps find out in future if particular types of video games affect people’s brain activity differently. The lead scientist on the study, Bader Chaarani says that too much screen time is not good for people’s mental well being or physical health. It is still very important to spend time outdoors in the fresh air, taking exercise and having fun with friends and family. A．This means that people who play video games show more brain activity. B．Compared with scrolling through videos on YouTube, playing video games surely makes brain more active. C．However, a new study has revealed that video games might be good for brain development in young people. D．Not all of gaming’s effects on the brain are positive despite the activated brain. E．The scientists are hoping to carry on studying the same young people as they get older to track the effects of gaming. F．They were shown pictures of people’s faces and then, a bit later, were shown more and had to say if any of the faces were the same. 【答案】67．C 68．F 69．A 70．E 【导语】这是一篇说明文。一项研究显示，玩电子游戏可能有益于年轻人大脑发育，且科学家希望继续追踪研究其影响。 67．由上文“Video games can sometimes have a bad reputation because they keep people indoors and looking at a screen instead of talking and playing with others face to face. (电子游戏有时声誉不佳，因为它们让人们呆在室内，看着屏幕，而不是与他人面对面交谈和玩耍。)”可知，前文提及游戏的负面印象。空格后介绍佛蒙特大学的研究，指出游戏对大脑发育的积极影响。C项However, a new study has revealed that video games might be good for brain development in young people.(然而，一项新研究表明电子游戏可能有益于年轻人的大脑发育。)以“However”转折，引出研究结论，既呼应上文的负面评价，又开启后文的积极发现，其中“new study”与后文“The results were taken from 2,217 children aged nine or 10”形成衔接。故选C项。 68．上文提到“The second test involved using their memory.(第二项测试涉及记忆能力。)”，说明测试内容。F项They were shown pictures of people’s faces and then, a bit later, were shown more and had to say if any of the faces were the same.(他们先看人脸图片，之后再看更多图片，需判断是否有相同面孔。)具体描述了记忆测试的流程，“shown pictures of faces”和“say if any were the same”对应“using their memory”，是对前文的详细展开。故选F项。 69．上文指出“fMRI scans showed that they also had more activity in the parts of their brains that look after memory and attention.(功能磁共振成像扫描显示，游戏者大脑中负责记忆和注意力的区域活动更活跃。)”，说明扫描结果。A项This means that people who play video games show more brain activity.(这意味着玩电子游戏的人表现出更多的大脑活动。)中的this指代前文的扫描结果，“more brain activity”是对“more activity in brain parts”的同义转述，起到总结上文的作用。故选A项。 70．下文提到“The team could also perhaps find out in future if particular types of video games affect people’s brain activity differently.(研究团队未来可能还会探究特定类型的游戏是否对大脑活动有不同影响。)”，说明未来的研究方向。E项The scientists are hoping to carry on studying the same young people as they get older to track the effects of gaming.(科学家希望继续研究同一群年轻人，追踪游戏对他们的影响。)中的“hoping to carry on studying”和“track the effects”与后文“find out in future”形成时间上的递进，共同阐述研究的延续性。故选E项。 IV.

Greens aim was to provide a pleasant, quiet and spacious shopping environment with large car parks, which usually meant building in the suburbs. He also wanted people to be able to shop in all kinds of weather. He insisted on using building designs that he knew people would feel comfortable with, but place them in landscaped streets that were entirely enclosed and often covered with a curved glass roof. This was done to imitate some of the older shopping areas of city centers, but while these houses only small specialty shops, Greens shopping mall were on a much grander scale. Access to the whole shopping mass was gained by using the main doors, which separated the shopping streets from the parking areas outside. As there was no need to keep out bad weather, shops no longer needed windows indoors, and people could wander freely from shop to shop. In many cities, shopping mls now contain much more than just shops, cinemas, restaurants and other forms of entertainment are also growing in popularity.

IT is not only simple and easy to understand, but also quite attractive. And most importantly, IT performs its primary test of guiding both londoners and tours round underground system in the city very well. The man behind this great achievement was called Henry back. He was an employee of the london underground drawing office and first came up with his design for the map in one thousand nine thirty one. The map, which had been in use before one thousand nine thirty one, was messy and unclear. Beck decided that a traditional map which give access information about distance was not necessary for the underground, and instead produced a diagram which showed only the stations on the underground system. This new map was an enormous success with the public when in one thousand nine and thirty three, IT made its person appearance on underground platforms and that station entrances. The design of the map showed great originality because IT provided a very clear representation of a highly complex network of communication. Bex approach was later adopted by most of the world's underground system. Many people would agree that the london underground map is extremely well designed.

Two members of the animal defense group, the A, D, G, our suspects have been involved in an attack on a medical research laboratory last night. Today i'm joined in the dio by mike Davidson, who is also a member of the AD. G. In the spokesperson. Good morning. Good morning. How can you possibly justify the actions of your colleagues who broke into the lab last night and caused such criminal damage? Well, you see, it's criminal damage, but using animals and experiments is a crime. You mean destroying the equipment used to help find cures for diseases isn't a crime? Yes, IT is a crime in the eyes of the law. But the reason we do that is to make IT really expensive for the firms to use animals and experiments. They might think it's too expensive to set up the experiment all over again. I see. So you completely support this kind of direct action. absolutely. Direct action is one of the many things you can do to highlight the cause of animal suffering. However, there are also completely peaceful ways of protesting. For example, i'm a vegetarian and I don't buy anything that has been tested on animals. And have you yourself been involved in any type of illegal action? Yes, I poured red paint over fur coats in a close shop, and i've been involved in an attack on a laboratory. What happened at the laboratory . we broken and look for evidence of the animal cruelty involved. The evidence we found actually put a stop to the research in that particular laboratory because IT wasn't being conducted in an acceptable way. There are rules to be obeyed, even for animal testing. And we found that the scientists were not following these rules. But this sort of violence just gives the animal rights movement a bad name. Doesn't IT. We don't agree with violence. Yes, we make life as difficult as possible for the scientists, but we don't aim to hurt them where people have been accidentally injured. We have apologized as harming people is not our intention. I'll have to stop you there, mister Davidson. Thank you for coming in.

And we found that the scientists were not following these rules. But this sort of violence just gives the animal rights movement a bad name. Doesn't IT. We don't agree with violence. Yes, we make life as difficult as possible for the scientists, but we don't aim to hurt them where people have been accidentally injured. We have apologized as harming people is not our intention. I'll have to stop you there. mr. Davidson, thank you for coming in questions. Seventeen, what is the A, D, G intended to do? Eighteen, according to the men, why did the A, D, G, members destroy the lab equipment? Nineteen, why did the scientist stop the research after the man in his colleague broke into their lab? Twenty, what does the man say about the bad name the ADG action has given to the animal rights movement? 听力部分到此结束。 学校 班级 姓名 准考证号 密 封 线 律 8 SectionA 00 的 当 Grammar and Vocabulary (20) [A][BIIC][DI [A][B]IC][D] (AJIB]C]IDI [AJIB]ICHD] IAJIBIICHDI [AJ[BIICHD] 1 [AJIB]ICHD] 1 0 品 (玉多流速防务障区内程务) 70 IAJIB]IC]ID][EJ[F] 6IAIIB][C][DJIEI[F] 68 IAJ[B]IC]ID][EJ[F] 67 IAI[B]ICIIDIIEJIFI 66 IA][B]IC]ID] 50 [A][B][C][D] A6二D) 47 IAJ[B]ICI[D] 10 [A][B][CID] [A]IB]ICHD] 8 [A][BIICHD] 7 IA][B]ICHD] 6 IA][BIICHDI 0 00 wJ 海福障（确用2正铝售摄装） 00 1 w N 9 0 4健卡 出 拉 55 [A][B]ICIIDI 54 [A][B][C][D] SIHa二HD) 52 [A][B][C][D] 51 [AJ[B][CJ[DI 15 [A][B][CID] 14 [A][B][CIID] 13 [A][B][CID] 12 [A][BI[CID] 11[A]IB]ICHD] 0 第 翠 i 200520元0金住磊一热传常帮号一深石号善 当 60 [A][B][C][D] 58 [A][BI[C][D] 57 [AI[B][CI[D] 56 [A][B][C][D] 20 [A][B][CID] 19[AJIB][CIID] 18 [A][B][CHD] 17 [AI[B][CID] Section B 31. 32. 33 34 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40.

Grammar and Vocabulary （每题1分；共20分） Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Winning Doesn’t Equal Success John Wooden was a celebrated basketball coach, who led his team to 10 championships over the course of 12 years. The team’s seven-year winning record still 21 (remain) unbroken. Wooden also received numerous coaching awards throughout his career. Do all those wins equal success? Wooden would be the first to say 22 don’t. In a TED talk, titled “The difference between winning and success,” Wooden offered his take on 23 it means to succeed. Wooden noted that Webster’s dictionary defines success as “the amassing of material possessions or the fulfilment of a position of power.” This didn’t work for him. Wooden said that success was peace of mind 24 (get) only through self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best of which you’re capable. Simply, if you have tried your best, then you have succeeded regardless of the outcomes. This attitude 25 (see) in Wooden’s coaching. He believed that his players were students first and athletes second. More than creating a winning team, he wanted to create individuals 26 would succeed off the court. He had three rules for his players: never be late, be neat and clean, and never criticize a teammate. If someone showed up late, Wooden would not let them 27 (play) even if they were the best on the team. He believed in building character, which would impact his players long 28 they stopped playing basketball. Wooden also came up with a “pyramid of success.” 29 cornerstones at the base were industriousness and enthusiasm, and at the top, faith and patience. These were marks of success for Wooden, and winning 30 them meant that you hadn’t actually succeeded. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．devoting   B．expectation   C． academic   D．disappointment   E. lasting   F. effort   G. bear   H. join   I. behavior   J. experience   K. laughter The below advice is really all about life lessons. We have to learn to value ourselves for our unique talents and be our biggest fans. Grades do not define you. Grades on a piece of paper do not define your intelligence or your future. Put your best 31 into your schoolwork,but also give yourself a break if you don’t do well enough to meet your 32 . There are so many other ways to be successful that do not involve grades — being a loyal friend, 33 yourself to theater or sports, or learning how to make life decisions with confidence. Learn from your relationships. Not all relationships will work out, but every single one will be a learning 34 . If you’re having trouble making friends, 35 club or sports team that interests you. And 36 in mind that other freshmen are just as nervous as you are about starting high school. But also remember that not everyone finds lifelong friends in high school. You will have many more chances in life to build 37 friendships, so don’t beat yourself up (自责) if you feel like you’re not forming deep connections. Everything passes. Bad days in high school can feel like the end of the world, but they’re not. These years will be mere memories one day. Enjoy the moments of joy — 38 achievements, 39 with close friends, meeting people who make you smile, finding a hobby you’re passionate about — but don’t dwell on (老想着) the moments of 40 . If you feel lost or hurt, confide in (向……倾诉) the people who love you. III. Reading Comprehension (41 – 55题，每题1分；56 – 70题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And unless otherwise assigned a seat by the teacher, I always 41 to sit at the back of the classroom. All this 42 after I joined a sports team. It begin when a teacher 43 I should try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a(n) 44 idea because I didn’t have a good sense of balance. Nor did I have the team ability to keep pace with the others on the team and they would laugh at me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “going for it,” I wouldn’t have decided to give a try. Taking the 45 to go to the tryouts was only the half of it! When I first started attending the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game. Sometimes I would get 46 and take a shot at the wrong direction -- which made me feel really stupid. 47 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the games, so I decided to 48 learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t know “just yet.” I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 49 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and exciting. Very soon the competitive part in me was winning over my 50 confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the process -- friends who 51 my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun! With my improved self-confidence comes more 52 from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “ 53 ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call 54 to myself, to raising my hand -- even when I sometimes am not 100 percent 55 I had the right answer.

Some yams weigh 5 kg and are almost as tall as she is. Lakshmi says this work is very hard. Lakshmi lives in Kerala, a state in southern India. She is part of an all-women group called Noorang. The women in Noorang belong to one of Kerala’s oldest tribes (部落). They are trying to save yams. These yams have grown on their land for many years. But yams are no longer a main diet among tribal communities in Kerala due to their rapidly changing lifestyle. Young people have many other foods to eat, like rice and wheat. They do not think yams are special anymore. Bad weather also hurts yam harvests. In the past, floods and landslides caused many yams to die. Recently, there was a sharp decline in lands dedicated to yam production in Kerala, with many of these being changed to the more rubber cultivation instead. “The women grow yams to feed their families and to keep these rare yams from disappearing,” says Lakshmi. “We believe yams can cure some illnesses,” says Shantha, another member of Noorang. “Many mothers here think yams are good for the stomach.” Since 2022, the Noorang group has brought back 180 kinds of wild yams. They have fifteen kinds of wild yams, three kinds of elephant yams, eight kinds of Colocasias, seven kinds of sweet potatoes, and one kind of Chinese potato. “Our goal is to save rare yams and grow more,” says Sarasu, a member of Noorang. 56．What is the Noorang’s main task? A．Getting more people to eat yams. B．Selling yams for more profits. C．Protecting ancient types of yams. D．Growing yams instead of rubber. 57．Why are yams no longer a main diet for locals? A．People didn’t realize their nutrition. B．Local people’s lifestyle has changed. C．Yams have gone from the region. D．Yams are now a fancy food. 58．What caused yam production to drop greatly recently? A．Flooding and deadly landslides. B．A ban on yam cultivation. C．The introduction of new yams. D．The shift to rubber cultivation. 59．What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A．The project’s great achievement. B．The market prediction of yams. C．The added nutrition to the variety. D．The project ‘s great motivation. (B) As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration. Zhoukoudian, Beijing Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago. Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years. The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers. The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC). Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world. The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs. Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire. 60．Which site reflects the earliest human? A．Zhoukoudian. B．The Yinxu Ruins. C．The Daming Palace. D．Sanxingdui Ruins site. 61．What is the Yinxu Ruins known for? A．The grand architecture. B．Oracle bone inscriptions. C．Royal palace in the Tang Dynasty. D．The remains of the Shu Kingdom. 62．Where can the text probably be found? A．In a novel. B．In a biography. C．In a history book. D．In a guidebook. (C) Everybody hates rats. But in the earthquake capitals of the world — Japan, Los Angeles, Turkey — rats will soon be man’s new best friends. What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat. How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person. Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity! The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course)． 63．In the world’s earthquake capitals, rats will become man’s best friends because they can  ________ . A．take the place of man’s rescue jobs B．find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildings C．serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildings D．get into small spaces 64．From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person who is alive by  ________ . A．the noise made by the rat B．the rat’s unusual behaviour C．the signal sent by the radio on the rat’s back D．the smell given off by the person 65．In doing rescue jobs, ________ . A．rats smell better than dogs B．dogs don’t need to be trained to smell people C．robots’ sense of smell can be affected by other smells around D．rats can see in the dark and are smaller than robots 66．Rats have all the following advantages EXCEPT that  ______ . A．they are more fantastic than other animals B．they are less expensive to train than dogs C．they don’t need electricity D．they are small and can get into small places Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Good News for Gamers Video games can sometimes have a bad reputation because they keep people indoors and looking at a screen instead of talking and playing with others face to face. 67 Scientists from the University of Vermont used data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) scheme, which is a study of brain development and health of children in the US as they move into adulthood. The results were taken from 2,217 children aged nine or 10. They were divided into two groups: young people who never play video games and those who play them for three or more hours a day. The young people were set two tasks. The first one measured their reaction times by seeing how quickly they could press buttons that matched images on a screen. The second test involved using their memory. 68 During the tests, their brains were scanned with fMRI, which uses magnets to measure brain activity. The people who played video games were consistently better at the two tasks, and the fMRI scans showed that they also had more activity in the parts of their brains that look after memory and attention. 69 However, it’s important to note that researchers don’t yet know if gaming improved their memory and reactions, or if they already had good memories and reactions and therefore enjoyed gaming and played a lot. 70 The team could also perhaps find out in future if particular types of video games affect people’s brain activity differently. The lead scientist on the study, Bader Chaarani says that too much screen time is not good for people’s mental well being or physical health. It is still very important to spend time outdoors in the fresh air, taking exercise and having fun with friends and family. A．This means that people who play video games show more brain activity. B．Compared with scrolling through videos on YouTube, playing video games surely makes brain more active. C．However, a new study has revealed that video games might be good for brain development in young people. D．Not all of gaming’s effects on the brain are positive despite the activated brain. E．The scientists are hoping to carry on studying the same young people as they get older to track the effects of gaming. F．They were shown pictures of people’s faces and then, a bit later, were shown more and had to say if any of the faces were the same. IV.
