Wildlife conservation programs are a great way to get involved in the preservation of endangered species, as well as learn how you can help protect them. If you are a wildlife lover, here are some programs you can choose.
●Animal Rescue Project, South Africa
You will be working with experienced conservationists in Cape Town. A significant challenge is to find new homes for homeless dogs and cats. The project comprises two sections: a fully equipped animal hospital and an adoption center focusing on securing new homes. Due to limited funding, the center can only afford a small number of permanent staff, relying heavily on wildlife lovers to assist with daily tasks and provide hands-on care for these animals.
●Sea Turtle Conservation Project, Sri Lanka
Recent years have witnessed a significant decline in the sea turtle’s numbers due to numerous commercial fishing. As a wildlife lover, your role extends to supporting hatcheries (孵化场) in their conservation efforts. Additionally, your involvement helps these hatcheries with funds, as we provide a placement fee for each wildlife lover, enabling them to generate additional income.
●Wildlife Conservation Program, Australia
You will be engaged in activities such as animal feeding, cleaning, maintenance, and enrichment. This program provides an incredible opportunity to gain firsthand international work experience. For you, this program is an excellent choice. Not only will you contribute to a noble cause, but it also offers a fantastic opportunity to meet people from around the world.
●Marine Conservation Program, Bali
You will be working in Tianyar, where the reef is now in a worsening state. The project was initiated to rest ore and conserve Tianyar’s coral reef, not only to protect its remarkable and delicate ecosystems but also to secure a sustainable future for the residents.
21. What problem does the adoption center meet with?
A. Insufficient equipment. B. Insecure surroundings.
C. Shortage of shelters. D. Lack of hands.

Andrea Lankford quit her job after spending 12 years as a National Park Service forester specializing in search and rescue missions in scenic and remote American landscapes. However, decades later, three young hikers went missing on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). She found herself unable to turn away from the three separate cases despite challenges in the inquiry into them.
Trail of the Lost was her answer.
It’s an absorbing nonfiction narrative (叙事) about the three hikers, including their lives and those of the people looking for them. It also explores the history of the PCT and the rich subculture, practices and even literature that surround it and those who undertake the 2,650-mile journey.
The book is a rich multilayered narrative that works on three different levels. The first is the story of each of the three hikers. Lankford offers a biography (传记) of each of the missing men and shows them through the eyes of those who knew them well and those who joined the search.
Right underneath the narratives about the three hikers are the stories of everyone looking for them. Lankford played a role in each search but she allowed friends, family and even strangers to occupy center stage throughout most of the narrative. The story looks at the role of missing person Facebook groups in the searches and how crucial word of mouth can be. Many warm-hearted individuals came forth and became instrumental in the searches or provided valuable information. But Lankford also writes of the many who lied for no apparent reason and confused the investigations.
The narrative also shines a light on diverse aspects of the PCT. Lankford, who has hiked the entire Appalachian Trail and was the first person to mountain bike the 800-mile Arizona Trail, knows just how the PCT is physically and mentally demanding. Besides, the book explores threats from mountain lions to people with bad intentions who don’t observe the PCT’s unspoken moral rules, serving as a revelation of the well-known, hidden or ignored dangers of the PCT.
Written with a clear, fast-paced, straightforward style, Trail of the Lost is as full of hope and humanity as it is packed with pain, sorrow, danger and tension. Read it and you’ll find more than you seek.
24. What led Lankford to write Trail of the Lost?
A. Her love for her prior career.
B. Her strong attachment to the PCT.
C. The stress from the missing families.
D. Her investigation into hikers’ disappearance.
25. What is presented on the second level of the book?
A. Efforts by different people in searches.
B. A string of wilderness survival tips.
C. Approaches to information classification.
D. Respective stories of the three hikers.
26. What’s the purpose of mentioning Lankford’s previous adventures?
A. To promote her book.
B. To make her a celebrity.
C. To motivate hikers to challenge themselves.
D. To stress the difficulty of hiking the PCT.
27. What can we say about the book?
A. It targets single youth.
B. It’s a romantic novel.
C. It’s based on actual events.
D. It’s a detailed account of a journey.
C
The latest data shows the population of wild Asian elephants in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has increased from around 150 to more than 300 from the 1980s to the end of 2021, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
With the growth in the elephant population, conflicts between humans and elephants have become frequent. In order to fundamentally and peacefully solve the issue and protect the elephant’s habitat at the same time, construction of the Asian elephant National Park is picking up speed. Experts suggest that national parks are not meant to be entirely free of people. Instead, they should offer a method for coexistence.
Asian elephants play an important role as engineers of the rainforest, said the expert. Their migration(迁徙) can speed up the replacement of forest ecosystems along the way. Elephant waste remains not only a delicacy for insects, but also attracts insectivorous birds, allowing plant seeds to spread. Therefore, protecting the elephants and their habitats guarantees the shelter to other wildlife in forest ecosystems.
To cope with human-elephant conflicts, Yunnan took the lead in introducing a commercial insurance model into its compensation(补偿) system: local residents will be paid with the amount of money for the crops destroyed by the elephants by the insurance company. In the past 10 years, Yunnan has paid a total of 173 million yuan for losses caused by Asian elephants.
“The standard of compensation is constantly being adjusted, and the amount of insurance coverage for compensation is also increasing,” said Yang Hua from the Forestry and Grass Bureau of Yunnan Province. “At present, the insured amount in Pu’er City and Xishuangbanna Prefecture alone has already gone beyond 50 million.”
28. Why does the author mention the growing population of wild Asian elephants?
A. To promote a better environment.
B. To introduce a possible crisis.
C. To applaud the efforts of the government.
D. To stress the importance of the elephants.
29. What does the underlined word “insectivorous” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Feeding on insects. B. Driving away insects.
C. Letting go of insects. D. Keeping track of insects.
30. What has been done to tackle conflicts between elephants and humans?
A. Construction of undisturbed national parks.
B. Support of Asian elephants’ migration.
C. Constant adjustment of insurance policies.
D. Guarantee of the shelter to other wildlife.
31. What might be the best title?
A. Asian elephants, engineers of the rainforest
B. Insurance adjusted, compensation increased
C. Population of wild Asian elephants shoots up in China
D. China explores solutions to achieve human-elephant harmony
D
Four-legged robots like Boston Dynamics’ Spot and Cheetah owe almost all their quickness to fancy footwork. In biology, however, a four-legged animal’s movement, flexibility, and complex motor functions come almost entirely from its spine (脊柱). If artificial spines could be put into such designs, engineers could find entirely new approaches to accurate mobility.
Now, engineers are reportedly a few steps further towards spine-centric, four-legged bots thanks to a research team’s rat-inspired robot. NeRmo is a biomimetic and four-legged robot that depends on an innovative motor-tendon (运动肌腱的) structure to move around environments.
As far as looks go, NeRmo mirrors a mouse’s bone system. The robot’s solid front half houses its electronics systems, while its latter half functions much as an actual flexible spine would. Artificial tendons passing through the spine as well as the robot’s arm and knee joints allow NeRmo even more mouselike movements alongside quicker turning times. NeRmo’s tendon system prevented the need for any muscle while still allowing for smooth bending capabilities, i. e. side-to-side, and up-and-down.
To test their new design, the team ran NeRmo through a series of four experiments to demonstrate balancing, straight-line walking, quick turning, and maze navigation. Each trial included two rounds — one with the spinal system engaged, and the other with it disabled. Across the board, NeRmo performed the tasks better, faster, and more accurately when it combined the spine with its movements. Maze navigation, however, was NeRmo’s true shining moment. With its spine engaged, the mouse-bot completed its maze runs much faster than simply wandering through without spinal support.
Although still in its early stages, researchers believe further design involving the spinal systems in future four-legged robots could vastly improve their functionality. If NeRmo wasn’t proof enough, think of it this way — MIT’s Cheetah can run 13 feet per second with just one joint copying the bending of the spine forward and backward. NeRmo, meanwhile, has eight joints.
32. What is the limitation of Boston Dynamics’ Spot and Cheetah?
A. Having an unattractive appearance.
B. Referring to few biological bases.
C. Having a strict range of applications.
D. Lacking spine-based moving accuracy.
33. Which of the following makes NeRmo move more like mice?
A. The tendon system. B. The bone system.
C. The muscle system. D. The knee joint.
34. What did the four testing experiments find?
A. NeRmo had a great sense of direction.
B. The spinal system bettered NeRmo’s movement.
C. NeRmo without an artificial spine lost control easily.
D. Artificial spines gave hope to disabled animals.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Putting NeRmo into use has difficulties in practice.
B. Reducing the number of joints in robots is necessary.
C. Applying spinal systems to robots has a promising outlook.
D. Creating more four-legged robots is a matter of time.

How to Clean a House
Cleaning your house seems like a fairly self-explanatory task, but when you sit down to think about it, you might realize that you have a lot of questions. ____36____ We’ll work it down into a process that seems simple enough to tackle.
Decide how clean you want your house to be and how much time you have. ____37____ So, be honest with yourself about what you can do, how much time you have, and how motivated you’re feeling.
____38____ You don’t want to vacuum and then get crumbs all over the floor, or dust the bottom of something and knock more dust down when you work your way up onto the previously uncleaned areas. If you don’t have much time, start with the mess first and work your way to more serious things from there.
Make a checklist and a plan of attack. Know which rooms you plan to start and finish your cleaning in. This will help speed up the process and ensure you are not repeating your efforts, especially if more than one person is involved in the cleaning. You can follow the steps in the cleaning part in order. ____39____ Attempt to delegate tasks. If you live with other people, cleaning the house should not be exclusively your responsibility! You may have to take on leadership by setting up a rotational (轮流的) cleaning schedule, but it’s far better than having to do this backbreaking work alone. ____40____ For example, grade school children can pick up their bedroom floors, teenagers can clean the garage or bathroom, etc.
Once you get started, you won’t want to stop until the whole house is spotless and organized.
A. For example, how do you clean a toilet?
B. Work from the top down, if at all possible.
C. Once you get started, make sure it is equal.
D. Make sure the tasks assigned are age-appropriate.
E. Should this really be something you do in everyday life?
F. This way, you’ll have a checklist already written out for you.
G. This will help you decide how to set up your cleaning schedule.

One ordinary afternoon, seeking an old novel for research, I wandered into a cluttered secondhand bookstore. When I ____41____ the dusty shelves, a familiar spine (书脊) caught my eye. My heart ____42____ a beat — it was a childhood ____43____ I hadn’t seen in decades — the very copy that had been stolen from my school bag. ____44____ nostalgia (怀旧), I bought it immediately.
Back at my desk, I carefully opened the ____45____ cover. What I saw left me breathless. There, on the first page, was my ____46____ childhood signature. But beneath it, unmistakable in its flowing writing, was my grandfather’s ____47____, written when he first ____48____ it to me: “I really hope at many years later this book will once again fall into your hands, and you’ll read it again.”
A wave of ____49____ washed over me. I recalled my childish ____50____ when the book was lost, and Grandpa’s ____51____ words: “Don’t cry, little one. Perhaps it’s just on an adventure, learning new stories to share.” Now, holding this tangible piece of my past, his hopeful wish felt like a ____52____ fulfilled. The book had completed its long, unexpected ____53____, guided by an ____54____ thread of love. Grandpa’s simple words was no longer just a wish; it was a profound proof to the enduring connections that time and distance cannot ____55____.

67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin (垃圾箱). There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city had taken the other trash cans away and the last one wasn’t emptied very often.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help.
Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up.
Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation (陈述). As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting.

Paragraph 2: After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news.

I couldn't even stand up on the surfboard. Well, who told you my . brother offered to teach . me that's good. He must be a good coach. Not really. He started surfing at fifteen and got a professional certificate at twenty two. Now he has been doing that for ten years. I'd have thought he would be good at teaching others to serve, but I was totally wrong.

Wildlife conservation programs are a great way to get involved in the preservation of endangered species, as well as learn how you can help protect them. If you are a wildlife lover, here are some programs you can choose.
●Animal Rescue Project, South Africa
You will be working with experienced conservationists in Cape Town. A significant challenge is to find new homes for homeless dogs and cats. The project comprises two sections: a fully equipped animal hospital and an adoption center focusing on securing new homes. Due to limited funding, the center can only afford a small number of permanent staff, relying heavily on wildlife lovers to assist with daily tasks and provide hands-on care for these animals.
●Sea Turtle Conservation Project, Sri Lanka
Recent years have witnessed a significant decline in the sea turtle’s numbers due to numerous commercial fishing. As a wildlife lover, your role extends to supporting hatcheries (孵化场) in their conservation efforts. Additionally, your involvement helps these hatcheries with funds, as we provide a placement fee for each wildlife lover, enabling them to generate additional income.
●Wildlife Conservation Program, Australia
You will be engaged in activities such as animal feeding, cleaning, maintenance, and enrichment. This program provides an incredible opportunity to gain firsthand international work experience. For you, this program is an excellent choice. Not only will you contribute to a noble cause, but it also offers a fantastic opportunity to meet people from around the world.
●Marine Conservation Program, Bali
You will be working in Tianyar, where the reef is now in a worsening state. The project was initiated to rest ore and conserve Tianyar’s coral reef, not only to protect its remarkable and delicate ecosystems but also to secure a sustainable future for the residents.
21. What problem does the adoption center meet with?
A. Insufficient equipment. B. Insecure surroundings.
C. Shortage of shelters. D. Lack of hands.
22. Which program will offer financial assistance?

Andrea Lankford quit her job after spending 12 years as a National Park Service forester specializing in search and rescue missions in scenic and remote American landscapes. However, decades later, three young hikers went missing on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). She found herself unable to turn away from the three separate cases despite challenges in the inquiry into them.
Trail of the Lost was her answer.
It’s an absorbing nonfiction narrative (叙事) about the three hikers, including their lives and those of the people looking for them. It also explores the history of the PCT and the rich subculture, practices and even literature that surround it and those who undertake the 2,650-mile journey.
The book is a rich multilayered narrative that works on three different levels. The first is the story of each of the three hikers. Lankford offers a biography (传记) of each of the missing men and shows them through the eyes of those who knew them well and those who joined the search.
Right underneath the narratives about the three hikers are the stories of everyone looking for them. Lankford played a role in each search but she allowed friends, family and even strangers to occupy center stage throughout most of the narrative. The story looks at the role of missing person Facebook groups in the searches and how crucial word of mouth can be. Many warm-hearted individuals came forth and became instrumental in the searches or provided valuable information. But Lankford also writes of the many who lied for no apparent reason and confused the investigations.
The narrative also shines a light on diverse aspects of the PCT. Lankford, who has hiked the entire Appalachian Trail and was the first person to mountain bike the 800-mile Arizona Trail, knows just how the PCT is physically and mentally demanding. Besides, the book explores threats from mountain lions to people with bad intentions who don’t observe the PCT’s unspoken moral rules, serving as a revelation of the well-known, hidden or ignored dangers of the PCT.
Written with a clear, fast-paced, straightforward style, Trail of the Lost is as full of hope and humanity as it is packed with pain, sorrow, danger and tension. Read it and you’ll find more than you seek.
24. What led Lankford to write Trail of the Lost?
A. Her love for her prior career.
B. Her strong attachment to the PCT.
C. The stress from the missing families.
D. Her investigation into hikers’ disappearance.
25. What is presented on the second level of the book?
A. Efforts by different people in searches.
B. A string of wilderness survival tips.
C. Approaches to information classification.
D. Respective stories of the three hikers.
26. What’s the purpose of mentioning Lankford’s previous adventures?
A. To promote her book.
B. To make her a celebrity.
C. To motivate hikers to challenge themselves.
D. To stress the difficulty of hiking the PCT.
27. What can we say about the book?
A. It targets single youth.
B. It’s a romantic novel.
C. It’s based on actual events.
D. It’s a detailed account of a journey.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. D 27. C

The latest data shows the population of wild Asian elephants in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has increased from around 150 to more than 300 from the 1980s to the end of 2021, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
With the growth in the elephant population, conflicts between humans and elephants have become frequent. In order to fundamentally and peacefully solve the issue and protect the elephant’s habitat at the same time, construction of the Asian elephant National Park is picking up speed. Experts suggest that national parks are not meant to be entirely free of people. Instead, they should offer a method for coexistence.
Asian elephants play an important role as engineers of the rainforest, said the expert. Their migration(迁徙) can speed up the replacement of forest ecosystems along the way. Elephant waste remains not only a delicacy for insects, but also attracts insectivorous birds, allowing plant seeds to spread. Therefore, protecting the elephants and their habitats guarantees the shelter to other wildlife in forest ecosystems.
To cope with human-elephant conflicts, Yunnan took the lead in introducing a commercial insurance model into its compensation(补偿) system: local residents will be paid with the amount of money for the crops destroyed by the elephants by the insurance company. In the past 10 years, Yunnan has paid a total of 173 million yuan for losses caused by Asian elephants.
“The standard of compensation is constantly being adjusted, and the amount of insurance coverage for compensation is also increasing,” said Yang Hua from the Forestry and Grass Bureau of Yunnan Province. “At present, the insured amount in Pu’er City and Xishuangbanna Prefecture alone has already gone beyond 50 million.”
28. Why does the author mention the growing population of wild Asian elephants?
A. To promote a better environment.
B. To introduce a possible crisis.
C. To applaud the efforts of the government.
D. To stress the importance of the elephants.
29. What does the underlined word “insectivorous” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Feeding on insects. B. Driving away insects.
C. Letting go of insects. D. Keeping track of insects.
30. What has been done to tackle conflicts between elephants and humans?
A. Construction of undisturbed national parks.
B. Support of Asian elephants’ migration.
C. Constant adjustment of insurance policies.
D. Guarantee of the shelter to other wildlife.
31. What might be the best title?
A. Asian elephants, engineers of the rainforest
B. Insurance adjusted, compensation increased
C. Population of wild Asian elephants shoots up in China
D. China explores solutions to achieve human-elephant harmony
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述随着大象数量的增长,人类与大象之间的冲突变得频繁,所以中国不断探索解决人象之间冲突的策略。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The latest data shows the population of wild Asian elephants in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has increased from around 150 to more than 300 from the 1980s to the end of 2021, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.(国家林业和草原局的最新数据显示,从上世纪80年代到2021年底,中国西南部云南省的野生亚洲象数量已从150头左右增加到300多头。)”和第二段“With the growth in the elephant population, conflicts between humans and elephants have become frequent.(随着大象数量的增长,人类与大象之间的冲突变得频繁。)”由此可知大象数量的增加是为了引出本文的话题随着大象数量的增长,人类与大象之间的冲突变得频繁。也就是人和大象之间的冲突,故选B。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词句子“Elephant waste remains not only a delicacy for insects, but also attracts insectivorous birds, allowing plant seeds to spread.( 大象的粪便不仅是昆虫的美味佳肴,还吸引了insectivorous鸟类,使植物种子得以传播。)”和常识可知鸟类吃昆虫,所以划线词意为“食虫的”,和A选项“以昆虫为食”同义,故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“To cope with human-elephant conflicts, Yunnan took the lead in introducing a commercial insurance model into its compensation(补偿)system: local residents will be paid with the amount of money for the crops destroyed by the elephants by the insurance company. In the past 10 years, Yunnan has paid a total of 173 million yuan for losses caused by Asian elephants.(为了应对人象冲突,云南率先在补偿制度中引入了商业保险模式:由保险公司赔偿当地居民被大象破坏的庄稼。在过去的10年里,云南为亚洲象造成的损失支付了1.73亿元。) ”和最后一段““The standard of compensation is constantly being adjusted, and the amount of insurance coverage for compensation is also increasing,” said Yang Hua from the Forestry and Grass Bureau of Yunnan Province.云南省林草局的杨华表示:“赔偿标准在不断调整,赔偿保险的金额也在不断增加。””可知在解决大象与人类之间的冲突时引入了商业保险模式,并且不断的调整金额,故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其第一段“The latest data shows the population of wild Asian elephants in southwest China’s Yunnan Province has increased from around 150 to more than 300 from the 1980s to the end of 2021, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.(国家林业和草原局的最新数据显示,从上世纪80年代到2021年底,中国西南部云南省的野生亚洲象数量已从150头左右增加到300多头。)”和第二段“With the growth in the elephant population, conflicts between humans and elephants have become frequent.(随着大象数量的增长,人类与大象之间的冲突变得频繁。)”可知本文主要讲述随着大象数量的增长,人类与大象之间的冲突变得频繁,所以中国不断探索解决人象之间冲突的策略。故D选项“中国探索人象和谐的解决方案”符合本文主旨,故选D。
D
Four-legged robots like Boston Dynamics’ Spot and Cheetah owe almost all their quickness to fancy footwork. In biology, however, a four-legged animal’s movement, flexibility, and complex motor functions come almost entirely from its spine (脊柱). If artificial spines could be put into such designs, engineers could find entirely new approaches to accurate mobility.
Now, engineers are reportedly a few steps further towards spine-centric, four-legged bots thanks to a research team’s rat-inspired robot. NeRmo is a biomimetic and four-legged robot that depends on an innovative motor-tendon (运动肌腱的) structure to move around environments.
As far as looks go, NeRmo mirrors a mouse’s bone system. The robot’s solid front half houses its electronics systems, while its latter half functions much as an actual flexible spine would. Artificial tendons passing through the spine as well as the robot’s arm and knee joints allow NeRmo even more mouselike movements alongside quicker turning times. NeRmo’s tendon system prevented the need for any muscle while still allowing for smooth bending capabilities, i. e. side-to-side, and up-and-down.
To test their new design, the team ran NeRmo through a series of four experiments to demonstrate balancing, straight-line walking, quick turning, and maze navigation. Each trial included two rounds — one with the spinal system engaged, and the other with it disabled. Across the board, NeRmo performed the tasks better, faster, and more accurately when it combined the spine with its movements. Maze navigation, however, was NeRmo’s true shining moment. With its spine engaged, the mouse-bot completed its maze runs much faster than simply wandering through without spinal support.
Although still in its early stages, researchers believe further design involving the spinal systems in future four-legged robots could vastly improve their functionality. If NeRmo wasn’t proof enough, think of it this way — MIT’s Cheetah can run 13 feet per second with just one joint copying the bending of the spine forward and backward. NeRmo, meanwhile, has eight joints.
32. What is the limitation of Boston Dynamics’ Spot and Cheetah?
A. Having an unattractive appearance.
B. Referring to few biological bases.
C. Having a strict range of applications.
D. Lacking spine-based moving accuracy.
33. Which of the following makes NeRmo move more like mice?
A. The tendon system. B. The bone system.
C. The muscle system. D. The knee joint.
34. What did the four testing experiments find?
A. NeRmo had a great sense of direction.
B. The spinal system bettered NeRmo’s movement.
C. NeRmo without an artificial spine lost control easily.
D. Artificial spines gave hope to disabled animals.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Putting NeRmo into use has difficulties in practice.
B. Reducing the number of joints in robots is necessary.
C. Applying spinal systems to robots has a promising outlook.
D. Creating more four-legged robots is a matter of time.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了受老鼠启发的机器人NeRmo,它的运动肌腱结构使它能够像老鼠一样快速、灵活地运动。研究人员通过一系列实验证明,NeRmo的脊柱系统能够提高它的运动性能,这为未来四足机器人的设计提供了新的思路。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Four-legged robots like Boston Dynamics’ Spo t and Cheetah owe almost all their quickness to fancy footwork. In biology, however, a four-legged animal’s movement, flexibility, and complex motor functions come almost entirely from its spine(脊柱). If artificial spines could be put into such designs, engineers could find entirely new approaches to accurate mobility.(像波士顿动力公司(Boston Dynamics)的Spot和Cheetah这样的四足机器人,它们的快速几乎都归功于花哨的步法。然而,在生物学中,四足动物的运动、灵活性和复杂的运动功能几乎完全来自其脊柱。如果人工脊柱能够被应用到这样的设计中,工程师们可能会找到全新的方法来实现精确的运动。)”可知,Boston Dynamics的Spot和Cheetah几乎完全依赖于复杂的步法来实现快速运动,而在生物学中,四足动物的运动、灵活性和复杂的运动功能几乎完全来自其脊柱。由此可知,Boston Dynamics的Spot和Cheetah的局限性在于缺乏基于脊柱的运动精度。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Artificial tendons passing through the spine as well as the robot’s arm and knee joints allow NeRmo even more mouselike movements alongside quicker turning times.(穿过脊柱以及机器人手臂和膝盖关节的人造肌腱使NeRmo能够做出更像老鼠的动作,同时还能更快地转弯)”可知,NeRmo机器人的运动肌腱结构使其能够像老鼠一样快速、灵活地运动。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Across the board, NeRmo performed the tasks better, faster, and more accurately when it combined the spine with its movements.(总的来说,当NeRmo将脊柱与运动结合起来时,它能更好、更快、更准确地完成任务。)”可知,上文的四个测试实验发现脊柱系统改善了NeRmo的运动。故选B。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Although still in its early stages, researchers believe further design involving the spinal systems in future four-legged robots could vastly improve their functionality.(尽管仍处于早期阶段,研究人员相信,在未来的四足机器人中涉及脊柱系统的进一步设计可以大大提高它们的功能。)”可知,在机器人中应用脊柱系统具有广阔的前景。故选C。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Clean a House
Cleaning your house seems like a fairly self-explanatory task, but when you sit down to think about it, you might realize that you have a lot of questions. ____36____ We’ll work it down into a process that seems simple enough to tackle.
Decide how clean you want your house to be and how much time you have. ____37____ So, be honest with yourself about what you can do, how much time you have, and how motivated you’re feeling.
____38____ You don’t want to vacuum and then get crumbs all over the floor, or dust the bottom of something and knock more dust down when you work your way up onto the previously uncleaned areas. If you don’t have much time, start with the mess first and work your way to more serious things from there.
Make a checklist and a plan of attack. Know which rooms you plan to start and finish your cleaning in. This will help speed up the process and ensure you are not repeating your efforts, especially if more than one person is involved in the cleaning. You can follow the steps in the cleaning part in order. ____39____ Attempt to delegate tasks. If you live with other people, cleaning the house should not be exclusively your responsibility! You may have to take on leadership by setting up a rotational (轮流的) cleaning schedule, but it’s far better than having to do this backbreaking work alone. ____40____ For example, grade school children can pick up their bedroom floors, teenagers can clean the garage or bathroom, etc.
Once you get started, you won’t want to stop until the whole house is spotless and organized.
A. For example, how do you clean a toilet?
B. Work from the top down, if at all possible.
C. Once you get started, make sure it is equal.
D. Make sure the tasks assigned are age-appropriate.
E. Should this really be something you do in everyday life?
F. This way, you’ll have a checklist already written out for you.
G. This will help you decide how to set up your cleaning schedule.

第二节 (满分25分)
67. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin (垃圾箱). There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city had taken the other trash cans away and the last one wasn’t emptied very often.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help.
Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up.
Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation (陈述). As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. His palms were sweaty as he clutched his notecards, nervously reviewing the key points one last time. When called upon, he stepped forward and began speaking with growing confidence. Using vivid photos of Tubman Park’s current state and diagrams of the innovative trash bins, he explained how this solution could transform their childhood playground. He emphasized the community impact — how clean parks foster healthier children and stronger neighborhoods. The board members listened intently, nodding as he presented cost estimates and maintenance plans. By the end, even the sternest faces had softened into smiles.
After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. Go Green had not only approved their proposal but also pledged to fund the installation of five self-compacting trash bins and organize monthly volunteer clean-ups. Better yet, they’d connected the teens with a city council member who promised to advocate for restored park funding. Overwhelmed with joy, the two immediately texted Mrs. Evans, who replied, “Proud of you both! This is just the beginning.” The following weekend, they gathered classmates to remove litter from Tubman Park, their laughter mixing with the rustle of trash bags — a sound of change in motion.
【解析】
【导语】本文以公园改造为线索展开,讲述了高中生Peter和Isabel发现童年乐园Tubman公园垃圾堆积、市政维护缺失。求助市政厅被拒后,两人在老师Evans的建议下向环保组织Go Green提案。Isabel调研出自压缩垃圾桶技术,Peter精彩演讲打动评审,成功获资金安装智能垃圾桶并组织月度清洁。他们更带动同学清理公园,在笑声与行动中重燃社区希望。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“一周后,Peter紧张地站在‘绿色行动’组织开会的大厅后面”可知,第一段可描写Peter演讲的情景,并过渡到方案得到评审的认可。
②由第二段首句内容“会议结束后,Isabel兴奋地告诉Peter这个好消息”可知,第二段可描写他们的提议获批,得到更多的合作支持,他们开心地开展公园改造行动。
2. 续写线索:Peter紧张等待陈述——Peter演讲——评审认可——Isabel告知好消息——提议获批,得到支持——两人改造公园
