Eurail Passes
Ever dreamed of traveling around Europe? If so, then there are several types of Eurail passes available for unlimited rail travel in up to 33 countries. Which one is best for you?
Eurail Global Pass
The Eurail Global Pass is the standard pass, available for unlimited first-class travel for continuous periods ranging from 15 days to three months. Keep in mind that if you choose, say, the 15-day option, you must travel for 15 continuous days; if you skip a day because you want to stay a little longer in Paris, you’ll lose that day of travel.
Eurail Global Pass Flexi
If you’re planning to spend a few days in each city before moving on, the Eurail Global Pass Flexi may be a better option. This pass offers first class travel for any 10 or 15 days within a two-month period. The travel days can be continuous or non-continuous; the choice is yours.
Eurail Select Passes
While Eurail Global Passes are ideal for extensive multinational transportation, travelers who are visiting only three to five countries may be better off purchasing a Eurail Select Pass. With this, you may choose to travel within three, four or five bordering European countries for a duration of five, six, eight or 10 days within a two-month period. If selecting five countries, you also have the option of 15 travel days. The 28 different countries available allow for hundreds of different combinations.
Youth Pass
Travelers between the ages of 12 and 26 can save 35 percent by purchasing the Youth Pass, which essentially provides the same benefits as the regular Eurail Global Pass, except that you travel in second class rather than first class. Passes for children aged 4-11 cost half of the adult fare, and children under 4 travel free.
1. How is the Eurail Global Pass Flexi different from the Eurail Global Pass?
A. It is more flexible. B. It is more reliable.
C. It is available in more countries. D. It offers more travel days.
2. What is a Eurail Select Pass suitable for?
A. Traveling through 28 different countries.
B. Traveling for 15 days in 3-5 countries.
C. Traveling for 5 to 10 days in 10 countries.
D. Traveling through 3-5 neighboring countries.
3. Where can you find this article?
A. A guidebook about France.
B. An review discussing transportations.
C. An encyclopedia about European countries.
D. A website introducing European train tickets.
B
I have never understood why we keep a garden and why years ago when I bought my first house, I started digging up a small land for vegetables before doing anything else. It is so easy and cheap to buy carrots; why raise them? When April comes, I always find myself looking at that miserable land, resolving not to plant it again. But unavoidably a morning arrives when, just as I am awakening, a refreshing scent (香味), as if from the very center of this planet, comes through the window. And the sun suddenly, seems to have a different, deeper yellow in its light on the carpet.
It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is real conflict. The question is the same each year—what method should we use? The last few years we put black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly. But plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to hay. We cut a lot of hay and it does improve the soil. Besides, it looks lovely and comes to us free.
The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for some gardeners, are moral. Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get out in the garden and get something done. Also, your parental instinct comes into play because helpless living things are depending on you, requiring training and protection from enemies. In some cases, as with beans and cucumbers, your children—as it were, begin to turn upon on you in great numbers, growing more and more each morning and threatening to follow you into the house.
4. What does the underlined word “resolving” probably mean?
A. pretending B. refusing
C. deciding D. managing
5. What drove the author to abandon plastic?
A. High price. B. Environmental concern.
C. Poor function. D. Personal preference.
6. Why does the author say the attractions of gardening are moral?
A. Gardening requires wisdom. B. Gardening offers moral advice.
C. Gardening brings spiritual content. D. Gardening improves parenting.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. To Garden or Not B. What I Garden for
C. How to Garden D. Wisdom from Gardens
C
On April 8, as millions of people tried to watch a solar eclipse (日食) in North America, eye doctors across the United States would be ready to offer medical help.
That’s because, while a solar eclipse is an exciting event, it can also be dangerous. Looking at any part of the exposed sun without the right kind of protection can injure the eye’s light-sensitive retina (视网膜).
In 2017, during the solar eclipse seen across the United States, that happened to many people despite the media coverage about the danger of looking at the sun when it is anything less than fully and completely covered by the moon.
Given that more than 150 million people directly viewed either a partial eclipse or a total eclipse, however, the number of those who suffered eye problems may seem relatively small.
“We’ve got less than 100 cases across Canada and the US,” says Ralph Chou, an eclipse eye safety expert with the University of Waterloo in Canada. “But no one knows for sure how many people damaged their eyes in 2017,” he says, “because not every case gets written up for a medical journal, and people may not seek help for less serious eyesight troubles.”
“A lot of eyesight problems, if they actually happened, were probably relatively minor and, they disappeared on their own within weeks or months,” says Chou. “About half of those who experience significant eye problems on the day after an eclipse will recover almost completely.”
He notes that there are ways to enjoy the eclipse without looking up at all; everyday household objects allow you to create pinhole projectors (针孔投射) that let you watch an image of the sun. “If you do choose to look up at the sun when it is partially eclipsed,” says Chou, “make sure that you have the proper eclipse glasses.”
8. How can the solar eclipse be a dangerous event?
A. It leaves everything in the dark. B. It could cause damage to our eyes.
C. It makes it hard to get medical help. D. It forces us to go to a narrow space.
9. What was reported by the media in 2017?
A. The danger of seeing a solar eclipse. B. The location of a top-class hospital.
C. The importance of exploring space. D. The number of tourist attractions.
10. What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A. There is no need to worry about the solar eclipse.
B. Some people forgot to turn to the doctor for help.
C. It’s hard to track people who suffered eye problems.
D. Over 150 million people in the US are nearsighted.
11. What does Chou expect us to do about watching a solar eclipse?
A. Do it with our family. B. Take pictures of the sun.
C. Admire the scene on TV. D. Protect our eyes properly.
D
Wild African elephants may break sleep records for mammals (哺乳动物). New data show that they seem to survive on about two hours of shut-eye a night. Much of that sleeping took place while they were standing up. The animals lie down to sleep only once every three to four nights.
Trying to figure out how much wild elephants sleep just by watching them 24 hours a day is tricky, especially in the dark. Much of what scientists had known about sleeping elephants came from animals living in zoos, notes Paul Manger, who is a brain researcher at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa. In zoos, elephants have been recorded sleeping from about three hours to nearly seven during a 24-hour period. Using electronic monitors on African elephants in the wild, however, has turned up more extreme behavior.
Manger’s team implanted (植入) activity monitors in the trunks (象鼻) of two elephants. Both were female leaders of their herds in the Chobe National Park. Trunks, like human hands, are important for exploring the world. Elephants hardly keep them still — unless sleeping. The researchers thought that a trunk monitor that didn’t move for at least five minutes likely meant its host was asleep.
The monitors tracked the animals over about a month. During that time, the elephants averaged just two hours of sleep a day. What’s more, the elephants were able to skip a night’s sleep without needing extra rest the next day. Those trunk implants showed there were times when the elephants went up to 46 hours without any sleep.
There has been some thought that animals need sleep to store memories properly. But that can’t explain animals, like the elephants, which skip sleep for a night without needing catch-up rest later. “Elephants are usually not considered to be forgetful animals,” Manger observes. In fact, he notes, studies have found that they can have long memories.
12. How did the African elephants typically sleep according to the new study?
A. They stood up. B. They walked around.
C. They grouped. D. They kept eyes open.
13. Why did Manger’s team implant the trunk monitors?
A. To test a new tracker. B. To help elephants fall asleep.
C. To train wild animals. D. To study elephants’ sleep.
14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. People always think elephants are forgetful animals.
B. A good night’s sleep benefits all the wildlife’s brains.
C. Little sleep doesn’t affect the memory of elephants.
D. Scientists can’t understand why sleep makes sense.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Tips on watching wildlife. B. Wild elephants’ sleep habit.
C. Efforts to protect wild elephants. D. National nature reserves in Africa.

The Forgotten Pages
Once upon a time, there was a small village surrounded by mountains and trees. The villagers were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them had the imagination or the will to try something new, except for one girl named Hannah.
Hannah was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the woods looking for new things.
One afternoon, she came upon an abandoned cottage which looked very old. She tip-toed slowly to the door and opened it. In front of Hannah was a room full of books! Hannah’s excitement was visible on her face as she jumped up and down with joy!
Hannah realized she had found a hidden treasure. She shared everything with her friends but heard roars of laughter! Confused and hurt by this reaction, she did not give up. She eagerly read these books full of adventurous tales and was inspired by the characters who struggled for good with their determination, learning the power of love and friendship, and that the true strength lies within one’s own heart!
With the good in heart, she decided to share the tales with the villagers. She knew it would be a difficult journey, but she wanted to share the gold with everyone. Hannah started telling tales every day at the cottage.
From the start, only her very good friend, Sanuki, and her family came to the readings. But the word of her famous tales spread rapidly causing more and more people to come to the readings.
Everyone would gather in the old cottage as she told her stories. They transformed it into a holy place full of adventures and imagination.
Hannah reminded everyone through her tales of the importance of human connection, empathy, and love. She helped the lost find their bright path.
She became a beacon (灯塔) of hope, a reminder for everyone that even in the dustiest corners, there can be a hidden treasure. And that treasure is not always gold, it can be a tale simply waiting to be shared. The forgotten treasure lying in the old cottage transformed Hannah, whose passion and dedication blew life into the tales, and her words breathed new life into villagers’ unformed (蒙昧的) souls.
57. What’s Hannah’s character?
_____________________________________________________________________
58. How did Hannah feel when finding the cottage full of books?
_____________________________________________________________________
59. What influenced Hannah?
_____________________________________________________________________
60. Why did the villagers laugh at her when Hannah shared her discovery?
_____________________________________________________________________
61. Why did the author consider Hannah as a beacon of hope?

细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Keep in mind that if you choose, say, the 15-day option, you must travel for 15 continuous days; if you skip a day because you want to stay a little longer in Paris, you'll lose that day of travel.(请记住,比如说,如果你选择15天的通票,你必须连续旅行15天;如果你因为想在巴黎多停留几天而跳过一天,那么你就会失去这一天的旅行机会)”以及第三段“This pass offers first class travel for any 10 or 15 days within a two-month period. The travel days can be continuous or non-continuous; the choice is yours.(该通票可让你在两个月内任意10天或15天享受一等座旅行。旅行日期可以是连续的,也可以是非连续的,选择权在你手中)”可知,欧洲铁路全球通票(Eurail Global Pass)要求旅客必须连续旅行,例如选择 15天的通票,就必须连续旅行15天,不能间断。而欧洲铁路全球弹性通票(Eurail Global Pass Flexi)则更为灵活,旅客可以在两个月内任意选择10天或15天进行旅行,旅行日期可以是连续的,也可以是非连续的 ,即Eurail Global Pass Flexi更灵活。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“While Eurail Global Passes are ideal for extensive multinational transportation, travelers who are visiting only three to five countries may be better off purchasing a Eurail Select Pass. With this, you may choose to travel within three, four or five bordering European countries for a duration of five, six, eight or 10 days within a two-month period.(欧洲铁路全球通票非常适合广泛的跨国旅行,但对于只游览三到五个国家的旅行者来说,购买欧洲铁路自选通票可能更划算。有了这种通票,你可以选择在两个月内的5天、6天、8天或 10天内,在三个、四个或五个接壤的欧洲国家内旅行)”可知,欧洲铁路自选通票适合在 2 个月内,在3-5个接壤的欧洲国家内旅行5-10天。故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,文章详细介绍了多种欧洲铁路通票,包括其适用范围、旅行天数选择、不同年龄段票价等信息,符合一个介绍欧洲火车票的网站的内容特点。故选D。
B
I have never understood why we keep a garden and why years ago when I bought my first house, I started digging up a small land for vegetables before doing anything else. It is so easy and cheap to buy carrots; why raise them? When April comes, I always find myself looking at that miserable land, resolving not to plant it again. But unavoidably a morning arrives when, just as I am awakening, a refreshing scent (香味), as if from the very center of this planet, comes through the window. And the sun suddenly, seems to have a different, deeper yellow in its light on the carpet.
It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is real conflict. The question is the same each year—what method should we use? The last few years we put black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly. But plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to hay. We cut a lot of hay and it does improve the soil. Besides, it looks lovely and comes to us free.
The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for some gardeners, are moral. Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get out in the garden and get something done. Also, your parental instinct comes into play because helpless living things are depending on you, requiring training and protection from enemies. In some cases, as with beans and cucumbers, your children—as it were, begin to turn upon on you in great numbers, growing more and more each morning and threatening to follow you into the house.
4. What does the underlined word “resolving” probably mean?
A. pretending B. refusing
C. deciding D. managing
5. What drove the author to abandon plastic?
A. High price. B. Environmental concern.
C. Poor function. D. Personal preference.
6. Why does the author say the attractions of gardening are moral?
A. Gardening requires wisdom. B. Gardening offers moral advice.
C. Gardening brings spiritual content. D. Gardening improves parenting.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. To Garden or Not B. What I Garden for
C. How to Garden D. Wisdom from Gardens
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者种植蔬菜的原因。
【详解】1.词义猜测题。根据划线单词上文“When April comes, I always find myself looking at that miserable land”(每当四月来临,我总是发现自己看着那一片狼藉的土地)可知,每年四月份作者的土地总是一片狼藉,结合划线单词下文“not to plant it again.”(不要再种植了)可知,每当四月份来临时,作者发现自己的土地一片狼藉,所以决定不在种植,由此可以推断出,划线单词“resolving”表示“决定”,与选项C“deciding”(决定)意思一样,A. pretending假装;B. refusing拒绝;D. managing管理;经营,均不符,故选C。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The last few years we put black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly. But plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to hay. We cut a lot of hay and it does improve the soil. Besides, it looks lovely and comes to us free.”(过去几年,我们把黑色的塑料布放在两排中间,效果很好。但是塑料看起来很工业化,很不浪漫,所以我慢慢换成了干草堆。我们收割了很多干草,确实改善了土壤。另外,它看起来很漂亮,而且是免费的。)可知,作者不再用黑塑料是因为黑塑料看起来工业化,不浪漫,且干草看起来很漂亮,且是免费的,所以可以推断出,作者不再使用塑料是出于个人爱好,故选D。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get out in the garden and get something done. Also, your parental instinct comes into play because helpless living things are depending on you, requiring training and protection from enemies.”( 每当生活看起来毫无意义,难以把握的时候,你总是可以到花园里去做些事情。而且,你的父母本能也会发挥作用,因为无助的生物都依赖于你,需要训练和保护,以免遭到敌人的攻击。)可知,作者在感到生活没有意义时,可以到菜园找事情做,得到满足,同时,作者也像父母照顾孩子那样照顾菜园,所以可以推断出,作者认为种菜的乐趣是精神上的,是因为种菜能给作者带来精神上的满足,故选C。
4.主旨大意题。根据第二段“It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is real conflict. ”(送我回去凝视那片土地不仅是一种乐趣,也是一种真正的冲突)根据第三段“The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for some gardeners, are moral. ”(园艺的吸引力,我认为,至少对一些园丁来说,是精神上的)通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者喜欢种菜的原因,所以B选项“What I Garden for”(我为何种菜)适合做文章标题,故选B。
C
On April 8, as millions of people tried to watch a solar eclipse (日食) in North America, eye doctors across the United States would be ready to offer medical help.
That’s because, while a solar eclipse is an exciting event, it can also be dangerous. Looking at any part of the exposed sun without the right kind of protection can injure the eye’s light-sensitive retina (视网膜).
In 2017, during the solar eclipse seen across the United States, that happened to many people despite the media coverage about the danger of looking at the sun when it is anything less than fully and completely covered by the moon.
Given that more than 150 million people directly viewed either a partial eclipse or a total eclipse, however, the number of those who suffered eye problems may seem relatively small.
“We’ve got less than 100 cases across Canada and the US,” says Ralph Chou, an eclipse eye safety expert with the University of Waterloo in Canada. “But no one knows for sure how many people damaged their eyes in 2017,” he says, “because not every case gets written up for a medical journal, and people may not seek help for less serious eyesight troubles.”
“A lot of eyesight problems, if they actually happened, were probably relatively minor and, they disappeared on their own within weeks or months,” says Chou. “About half of those who experience significant eye problems on the day after an eclipse will recover almost completely.”
He notes that there are ways to enjoy the eclipse without looking up at all; everyday household objects allow you to create pinhole projectors (针孔投射) that let you watch an image of the sun. “If you do choose to look up at the sun when it is partially eclipsed,” says Chou, “make sure that you have the proper eclipse glasses.”
8. How can the solar eclipse be a dangerous event?
A. It leaves everything in the dark. B. It could cause damage to our eyes.
C. It makes it hard to get medical help. D. It forces us to go to a narrow space.
9. What was reported by the media in 2017?
A. The danger of seeing a solar eclipse. B. The location of a top-class hospital.
C. The importance of exploring space. D. The number of tourist attractions.
10. What can we learn from paragraph 5?
A. There is no need to worry about the solar eclipse.
B. Some people forgot to turn to the doctor for help.
C. It’s hard to track people who suffered eye problems.
D. Over 150 million people in the US are nearsighted.
11. What does Chou expect us to do about watching a solar eclipse?
A. Do it with our family. B. Take pictures of the sun.
C. Admire the scene on TV. D. Protect our eyes properly.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了在未采取安全防护措施的情况下观赏日食可能会损伤视网膜。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“That’s because, while a solar eclipse is an exciting event, it can also be dangerous. Looking at any part of the exposed sun without the right kind of protection can injure the eye’s light-sensitive retina (视网膜).(这是因为,虽然日食是一个令人兴奋的事件,但它也可能是危险的。在没有适当保护的情况下直视暴露在阳光下的任何部分都会伤害眼睛的感光视网膜)”可知,在未采取安全防护措施的情况下观赏日食可能会损伤视网膜,故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“In 2017, during the solar eclipse seen across the United States, that happened to many people despite the media coverage about the danger of looking at the sun when it is anything less than fully and completely covered by the moon.(2017年,在美国各地看到的日食期间,尽管媒体报道了当太阳没有完全被月亮覆盖时观看太阳的危险,但许多人还是发生了这种情况)”可知,2017年,媒体报道了观赏日食所带来的危害,故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“‘But no one knows for sure how many people damaged their eyes in 2017,’ he says, ‘because not every case gets written up for a medical journal, and people may not seek help for less serious eyesight troubles.’(‘但没有人确切知道2017年有多少人的眼睛受损,’他说,‘因为不是每个病例都会被医学杂志报道,而且人们可能不会寻求不太严重的视力问题的帮助。’)”可知,要想确切知晓多少人因观赏日食而影响视力健康并非易事,故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“‘If you do choose to look up at the sun when it is partially eclipsed,’ says Chou, ‘make sure that you have the proper eclipse glasses.’(‘如果你选择在日偏食时抬头看太阳,’Chou说,‘确保你有合适的日食眼镜。’)”可知,Chou希望大家在观赏日食时保护好眼睛,故选D。
D
Wild African elephants may break sleep records for mammals (哺乳动物). New data show that they seem to survive on about two hours of shut-eye a night. Much of that sleeping took place while they were standing up. The animals lie down to sleep only once every three to four nights.
Trying to figure out how much wild elephants sleep just by watching them 24 hours a day is tricky, especially in the dark. Much of what scientists had known about sleeping elephants came from animals living in zoos, notes Paul Manger, who is a brain researcher at the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa. In zoos, elephants have been recorded sleeping from about three hours to nearly seven during a 24-hour period. Using electronic monitors on African elephants in the wild, however, has turned up more extreme behavior.
Manger’s team implanted (植入) activity monitors in the trunks (象鼻) of two elephants. Both were female leaders of their herds in the Chobe National Park. Trunks, like human hands, are important for exploring the world. Elephants hardly keep them still — unless sleeping. The researchers thought that a trunk monitor that didn’t move for at least five minutes likely meant its host was asleep.
The monitors tracked the animals over about a month. During that time, the elephants averaged just two hours of sleep a day. What’s more, the elephants were able to skip a night’s sleep without needing extra rest the next day. Those trunk implants showed there were times when the elephants went up to 46 hours without any sleep.
There has been some thought that animals need sleep to store memories properly. But that can’t explain animals, like the elephants, which skip sleep for a night without needing catch-up rest later. “Elephants are usually not considered to be forgetful animals,” Manger observes. In fact, he notes, studies have found that they can have long memories.
12. How did the African elephants typically sleep according to the new study?
A. They stood up. B. They walked around.
C. They grouped. D. They kept eyes open.
13. Why did Manger’s team implant the trunk monitors?
A. To test a new tracker. B. To help elephants fall asleep.
C. To train wild animals. D. To study elephants’ sleep.
14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. People always think elephants are forgetful animals.
B. A good night’s sleep benefits all the wildlife’s brains.
C. Little sleep doesn’t affect the memory of elephants.
D. Scientists can’t understand why sleep makes sense.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. Tips on watching wildlife. B. Wild elephants’ sleep habit.
C. Efforts to protect wild elephants. D. National nature reserves in Africa.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于野生非洲象睡眠模式的新发现,即它们每晚似乎只睡大约两个小时,并且大部分时间是站立着睡觉,每隔三到四晚才会躺下一次。研究挑战了以往基于动物园大象的研究结论,展示了野生动物行为学研究中的新见解,同时也对动物需要睡眠来储存记忆的传统观点提出了疑问。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“New data show that they seem to survive on about two hours of shut-eye a night. Much of that sleeping took place while they were standing up. The animals lie down to sleep only once every three to four nights. (新的数据显示,它们似乎每晚只睡两个小时就能存活下来。大部分睡眠都是在他们站着的时候进行的。这些动物每三到四个晚上才躺下睡觉一次。)”可知,这项新研究显示,非洲象通常站着睡觉。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Trying to figure out how much wild elephants sleep just by watching them 24hoursa day is tricky, especially in the dark (仅仅通过观察野生大象一天24小时来计算它们的睡眠时间是很棘手的,尤其是在黑暗中。)”、第三段“Manger’s team implanted (植入) activity monitors in the trunks (象鼻) of two elephants. (Manger的团队在两头大象的鼻子中植入了活动监测器。)”及第四段“The monitors tracked the animals over about a month. During that time, the elephants averaged just two hours of sleep a day. What’s more, the elephants were able to skip a night’s sleep without needing extra rest the next day. Those trunk implants showed there were times when the elephants went up to 46 hours without any sleep. (监测器对这些动物进行了大约一个月的跟踪。在此期间,大象平均每天只睡两个小时。更重要的是,大象可以跳过一个晚上的睡眠,第二天不需要额外的休息。这些鼻子植入物显示,有时大象可以长达46个小时不睡觉。)”可知,Manger 的团队在这两头母象的鼻子里植入监视器是为了研究大象的睡眠情况。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“There has been some thought that animals need sleep to store memories properly. But that can’t explain animals, like the elephants, which skip sleep for a night without needing catch-up rest later. “Elephants are usually not considered to be forgetful animals,” Manger observes. In fact, he notes, studies have found that they can have long memories. (有一些人认为动物需要睡眠来正确地储存记忆。但这并不能解释像大象这样的动物,它们一晚上不睡觉,以后不需要补觉。“大象通常不被认为是健忘的动物,”曼格说。事实上,他指出,研究发现们可以它有很长的记忆。)”可知,睡眠不足不会影响大象的记忆。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Wild African elephants may break sleep records for mammals (哺乳动物). New data show that they seem to survive on about two hours of shut-eye a night. Much of that sleeping took place while they were standing up. The animals lie down to sleep only once every three to four nights. (野生非洲象可能打破哺乳动物的睡眠记录。新的数据显示,它们似乎每晚只睡两个小时就能存活下来。大部分睡眠都是在他们站着的时候进行的。这些动物每三到四个晚上才躺下睡觉一次。)”可知,文章主要介绍了关于野生非洲象睡眠模式的新发现,即它们每晚似乎只睡大约两个小时,并且大部分时间是站立着睡觉,每隔三到四晚才会躺下一次。选项B“Wild elephants’ sleep habit. (野象的睡眠习惯)”符合题意。故选B。

The Forgotten Pages
Once upon a time, there was a small village surrounded by mountains and trees. The villagers were used to their robotic daily tasks and none of them had the imagination or the will to try something new, except for one girl named Hannah.
Hannah was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the woods looking for new things.
One afternoon, she came upon an abandoned cottage which looked very old. She tip-toed slowly to the door and opened it. In front of Hannah was a room full of books! Hannah’s excitement was visible on her face as she jumped up and down with joy!
Hannah realized she had found a hidden treasure. She shared everything with her friends but heard roars of laughter! Confused and hurt by this reaction, she did not give up. She eagerly read these books full of adventurous tales and was inspired by the characters who struggled for good with their determination, learning the power of love and friendship, and that the true strength lies within one’s own heart!
With the good in heart, she decided to share the tales with the villagers. She knew it would be a difficult journey, but she wanted to share the gold with everyone. Hannah started telling tales every day at the cottage.
From the start, only her very good friend, Sanuki, and her family came to the readings. But the word of her famous tales spread rapidly causing more and more people to come to the readings.
Everyone would gather in the old cottage as she told her stories. They transformed it into a holy place full of adventures and imagination.
Hannah reminded everyone through her tales of the importance of human connection, empathy, and love. She helped the lost find their bright path.
She became a beacon (灯塔) of hope, a reminder for everyone that even in the dustiest corners, there can be a hidden treasure. And that treasure is not always gold, it can be a tale simply waiting to be shared. The forgotten treasure lying in the old cottage transformed Hannah, whose passion and dedication blew life into the tales, and her words breathed new life into villagers’ unformed (蒙昧的) souls.

【57题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第二段“Hannah was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the woods looking for new things.(Hannah具有冒险精神,她的想象力远远超出了她的时代。她喜欢探索,会花几个小时在树林里寻找新的东西。)”可知,Hannah是个有冒险精神、有想象力的人;再根据第五段“With the good in heart, she decided to share the tales with the villagers. She knew it would be a difficult journey, but she wanted to share the gold with everyone. Hannah started telling tales every day at the cottage.(心中怀着善意,她决定把这些故事分享给村民们。她知道这将是一段艰难的旅程,但她想把这份珍贵与所有人共享。Hannah开始每天在小屋里讲述故事。)”可知,Hannah是个意志坚定的人。故答案为Adventurous, imaginative and determined。
【58题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“One afternoon, she came upon an abandoned cottage which looked very old. She tip-toed slowly to the door and opened it. In front of Hannah was a room full of books! Hannah’s excitement was visible on her face as she jumped up and down with joy!(一天下午,她偶然发现了一间看起来十分陈旧的废弃小屋。她踮着脚尖缓缓走到门边,推开了它。在Hannah面前,是一个堆满了书籍的房间!当Hannah高兴得蹦蹦跳跳时,她脸上的兴奋显而易见!)”可知,当Hannah发现了一间满是书的屋子时,她非常兴奋和高兴。故答案为Excited and happy。
【59题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章第四段中“She eagerly read these books full of adventurous tales and was inspired by the characters who struggled for good with their determination, learning the power of love and friendship, and that the true strength lies within one’s own heart!(她热切地读着这些充满冒险故事的书,被那些为善而奋斗的人物所鼓舞,他们下定决心,学会了爱和友谊的力量,真正的力量在于自己的内心!)”可推知,Hannah受到了这些冒险故事书中的人物的影响。故答案为Hannah was influenced by the characters in these adventure books。

【61题详解】
考查推理判断。根据文章倒数第一段“Hannah reminded everyone through her tales of the importance of human connection, empathy, and love. She helped the lost find their bright path.(Hannah通过她的故事提醒大家人际关系、同理心和爱的重要性。她帮助迷失的人找到光明的道路。)”可推知,作者认为Hannah是希望的灯塔是因为她提醒着大家人际关系、同理心和爱的重要性。故答案为Because she reminded people of human connection, empathy and love.
