If you are planning a tour of Xi’an, you’ll want to hit all the following highlights. Terracotta Army Discovered near Lintong, Xi’an, the army of Terracotta Warriors was constructed by China’s First Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty. It is a collection of thousands of life-size terracotta soldiers, horses and chariots in battle formation, showing the emperor’s armies in full splendor. Xi’an City Wall Xi’an City Wall was built in the 14th century by Zhu Yuanzhang, the first Emperor of the Ming Dynasty as a military defense system. Now it is one of the oldest and best-preserved Chinese city walls. The wall is now a landmark, dividing the city into inner and outer areas. When you take a walk or cycle on the massive wall, you can enjoy a good view of the city, the moat and the watchtowers. Giant Wild Goose Pagoda The Giant Wild Goose Pagoda was built in the Tang Dynasty for the study of Buddhist scriptures. One of the main functions of the pagoda was to store sutras and figurines brought to China from India by the famous monk and traveler Xuan Zang, who stayed here for 19 years translating Buddhist scriptures. Shaanxi History Museum The Shaanxi History Museum is home to over 370, 000 precious relics unearthed in Shaanxi over the years.

Among its precious collections, 18 pieces have been listed as national treasures. 1.What will you see when you visit the Terracotta Army? A. Terracotta soldiers and horses. B. Books translated by Xuan Zang. C. A good view of Xi’an. D. Terracotta pots for plants. 2.Which attraction will you choose if you are interested in national treasures? A. Giant Wild Goose Pagoda. B. Shaanxi History Museum. C. Terracotta Army. D. Xi’an City Wall. 3.Where is this text most likely from? A. A travel guidebook. B. A science magazine. C. A research paper. D. A news report. B An Indonesian librarian is lending books to children in exchange for trash they collect in a novel way to clean up the environment and get the kids to read more. Each weekday，Raden Roro Hendarti，a librarian in Indonesia's Java Island rides her three-wheeler with books piled up at the back for children in Muntang village to exchange for plastic cups，bags and other waste that she carries back.As soon as she shows up，little children，many accompanied by their mothers，surround her “Trash Library” and ask loudly for the books.They are all carrying trash bags and Raden's three-wheeler quickly fills up with them as the books fly out.She's happy the kids are going to spend less time on online games as a result. “Let us get kids to read more and build a culture of literacy from a young age，” Raden said.“We should also take care of our waste in order to fight against climate change and to save the earth from trash.” She collects about 100 kg of waste each week，which is then sorted out by her colleagues and sent for recycling or sold.She has a stock of 6,000 books to lend and wants to take the mobile service to neighboring areas as well. Kevin Alamsyah，an eager 11-year-old reader，looks for waste lying in the village.“When there is too much trash，our environment will become dirty and it's not healthy.That's why I look for trash to borrow a book，” he says. The literacy rate for above-15-year-olds in Indonesia is around 96 percent，but a September report by the World Bank warned that the pandemic will leave more than 80% of 15-year-olds below the minimum reading level identified by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. 4.What is “Trash Library” like? A. Well-decorated. B. Noisy and dirty. C. Relaxing. D. Popular. 5.Why does Raden run the “Trash Library”？ A. To get kids to read more and care for the environment. B. To collect trash for money. C. To help kids get away from online games. D. To fight against climate change. 6.What can we infer from the passage? A. Indonesia's environmental situation is worrying. B. People in Indonesia has a very low literacy rate. C. The pandemic has a negative effect on teenagers' reading. D. The trash library has been introduced to many other cities. 7.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A Novel Way to Improve Library B. The Indonesian System for Reading C. Your Trash Benefiting the Environment D. Your Collected Trash for Our Books C Artificial intelligence has persuaded many people that we need to thoroughly change education. Now that chatbots can speedily find and bring back information and answer complex questions, why bother memorizing historical facts or quotations? Shouldn’t we instead teach kids to think critically and solve problems and leave the above-mentioned work to computers? This perspective suggests we can always “just google it” when information is needed. Yet this perspective faces strong pushback. Nonagenarian American educator E.D. Hirsch demolished (驳倒) the argument that we can always just look things up, stating that while internet access and AI tutors are amazing and can strengthen knowledge if used reasonably, being able to recall facts remains indispensable. This connects to a deeper concern about outsourcing memory. In The Shallows, Nicholas Carr writes that the suggestion we should outsource our memory to “free up” limited space for more creative thinking is based on a misconception. Thanks to its plasticity, the brain’s long-term memory center can expand, as scientists found when studying London taxi drivers. Carr warns: “When we start using the Web as a substitute for personal memory, bypassing the inner processes of consolidation (巩固), we risk emptying our minds of their riches.” Furthermore, cognitive limitations reinforce this risk. Daisy Christodoulou, author of Seven Myths About Education, reminds us that our working memories can only process a few new items at a time. So if we encounter too much new vocabulary or information, we become overwhelmed, damaging our ability to learn. Indeed, looking stuff up on Google often results in us not being able to recall it later. But we don’t need to reinvent the wheel: In an era of conspiracy (阴谋) theories and misinformation, it’s even more vital that we humans have a firm grasp of basic facts. 8.What is E.D. Hirsch’s opinion on recalling facts in the AI era? A.It is less important than critical thinking. B.It remains essential despite technology. C.It should be replaced by internet access. D.It weakens knowledge retention overall. 9.How does the author support the main argument in the text? A. Describing personal chatbot experiences. B.Comparing ancient vs. modern education. C. Listing all AI benefits. D. Quoting experts. 10.What do Carr and Christodoulou imply about using the internet as a memory tool? A. It boosts creative thinking capacity. B.It enhances memory consolidation. C. It harms natural brain processes. D.It ensures reliable fact recall. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. The future role of AI tutors in modern education systems. B. The enhancement of critical thinking skills through technology. C. The debate on the necessity of memorization in the age of AI. D. The complete replacement of traditional learning with internet tools. D Where do great musicians, great mathematicians and great sportspeople get their talent? For decades now, we have assumed that most of them are simply born with a talent that ordinary people do not have. When baseball legend Ted Williams claimed that his achievement had nothing to do with natural ability but were the result of practice, practice, practice, people assumed that he was merely being modest. But scientists now believe that there was a good deal of truth in what he said. Throughout the last century, it was accepted that we inherit （继承） many of our characteristics from our parents via their DNA, that each of us inherits a fixed amount of intelligence -a fixed IQ, and that most of us are to be ordinary. But now it is accepted that our genes interact with their surroundings, getting turned on and off all the time. “There are no genetic factors that can be studied independently of the environment,” explains Michael Meaney of McGill University. “And there are no environmental factors that function independently of our genes. They work alongside each other.” How does this view of the role of genes change our understanding of individual talent and abilities? Does it now mean that genes don’t matter, and that we all have the potential to be like, say, Lionel Messi or Lebron James? Such a claim flies in the face of reason. The genes we inherit clearly matter, as do genetic differences between individuals. But it is also true that Lionel Messi would not have become the super footballer he is, nor Lebron James a basketball superstar, without putting in thousands of hours of practice. They could have turned out entirely different people. Talent researcher Kevin Rathunde agrees. “High academic achievers are not necessarily born much smarter than others but genes do count,” he writes in his book Talented Teenagers, “and above all they usually work harder and develop more self-discipline.” 12. What did Ted Williams think led to his success? A. His natural talent. B. His full commitment. C. His modest personality. D. His extraordinary intelligence. 13.What did we widely believe during the 20 century? A. Intelligence has little to do with DNA B. Our genes interact with our environment. C. The majority of us are of average intelligence. D. Our character is simply decided by inherited DNA. 14.Why does the author mention “Lionel Messi” and “Lebron James” in paragraph 3? A. To clarify a point. B. To illustrate a rule. C. To offer a solution. D.To make a prediction. 15.Which statement will Kevin Rathunde probably agree with? A. Most of us are born to be average persons. B. We could all be geniuses if working hard enough. C. Genetie factors are more important than hard work. D. Great talent is a combination of genes and practice. 第二部分（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you been wishing to put on your hiking shoes and enter the woods for a little backpacking trip, but you’re not sure exactly where to start?

The process was difficult and cold. (Outdoors, he collected snowflakes on a wooden tray that was painted 29 to observe it.

This 36 (success) system, called RePaint, uses a combination of 3D printing and deep learning to recreate complex paintings. It could 37 (use) to remake famous artworks for the home, or even to produce accurate copies to protect originals from 38 (suffer) wear and tear when hung in museums. “The value of fine art has 39 (rapid) increased in recent years, and there’s an increased tendency (趋势) for it to be locked up in warehouses (仓库) away from the public eye,” said RePaint engineer Michael Foshey. “We’re building the technology to change this trend, and to create inexpensive reproductions 40 can be enjoyed by all.” The team used RePaint to reproduce 41 number of oil paintings 42 (create) especially for the project by an artist. They developed a technique called “color-contoning” and managed 43 (combine) this technique with an established technique called “half-toning.” This more fully shows the nuances (细微差别) of the colors in the original works. At this time, the reproductions are only about the size of a business card, due 44 the time-costly nature of printing. In the future, the team expects that more advanced 3D printers could help 45 (they) to make larger paintings. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作 (满分15分) 上周末，你参加了学生会组织的“认识我们身边的植物”活动。请为校英文报写篇报道，内容包括： 1.活动的过程； 2.收获与感想。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按以下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Getting to Know the Plants around Us 第二节 读后续写(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I couldn’t bear it any longer! My best friend had gone for lunch with the most popular girl in class, leaving me to eat my sandwich alone in the library. Worse still, during dance class, my partner, a boy, refused to hold my hand and spoke ill of me behind my back, further feeding my anger. It was, without a doubt, my worst day in school. I was hurt and mad, and looking for a target to release my anger. When I got home from school, Mother had baked peanut butter cookies and piled them up on a plate. She even artfully decorated each one with royal icing and topped it with sugar. ”Couldn’t you have made chocolate chip?“ I said moodily. ”I could have,“ she replied from the laundry room, ”but I made peanut butter ones. Eat them while they’re still hot, sweetie.“ Although I thought Mother was rather unthoughtful, I caved in and took a few bites unwillingly in the end. Later, when she pulled a grilled chicken from the oven and sang a merry tune, I somehow got annoyed again—Never mind that Mother had busied herself the whole afternoon with the cooking just to put this hot meal on the table. I wanted hamburgers. ” Nobody even likes that kind of food, Mum! Why didn’t you make hamburgers?“ I complained. Mother took a deep breath, ran her fingers through her messy hair and looked into my eyes with a puzzled look. ”Sweetheart, you’ve never complained about having it before. What’s up?“ she said matter-of-factly (平淡地). It was from there that all went downhill. I screamed and complained nonstop until Mother hit her limit. It was the first time that Mother had got mad at me. Nobody seemed to care about me, including my beloved mother! Ultimately, we had a shouting match in the hallway. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右; 请按如下格式作答。 Unable to contain her anger, ”No dinner for you! Go to bed now!" she exploded. Then a thick, juicy smell of hamburgers greeted my nose. 第1页 共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
