B
To save endangered arctic wolves, the Beijing-based Sinogene Biotechnology Company cooperated with Harbin Polarland on cloning the arctic wolf. As a result, after two years of thorough efforts, the arctic wolf was cloned successfully. It is the first case of its kind in the world.
Born on June 10, 2022, the wolf, named Maya, is energetic and in very good health. Her donor cell came from the skin sample of a wild female arctic wolf, who had been introduced from Canada. However, her oocyte (卵母细胞) was from a female dog, and her surrogate mother(代孕母体)was a beagle(小猎犬). The selection of a dog as Maya’s surrogate was made because dogs share a genetic ancestor(祖先) with ancient wolves, and it’s more likely to succeed through cloning technology.
“This is our new attempt and breakthrough in protecting and breeding(繁育) wild and endangered animals. The birth of the world’s first cloned arctic wolf is a milestone for the application of cloning technology and is of great importance to biodiversity, the protection of wildlife, and the restoration(修复) of endangered species in the world,” Mi Jidong, the company’s general manager, said.
Cloning technology is a breeding method different from natural reproduction. Some raised arguments relating to the cloned arctic wolf. Sun Quanhui, a scientist from the World Animal Protection Organization, said that cloning technology is still in the exploratory stage of research, and there are many technical and moral issues that need to be handled and treated with caution. Sun believed cloning should be considered only for endangered wild animals whose species are extinct, or whose captive populations are very limited.
The cloned wolf now lives with her surrogate beagle in a lab, and later she will be delivered to the Harbin Polarland and displayed to the public. The cloned wolf would live by herself in the park in the initial stage because she may not be able to adapt to original arctic wolf groups. However, it is reported that the technology of cloning arctic wolves has gained strong value in its application, and another male cloned arctic wolf will come into this world in the near future.
4. What do we know about Maya?
A. She was born in Canada. B. She is in good condition.
C. She is the first cloned animal in China. D. She shares similar living habits with dogs.
5. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The development of cloning technology.
B. The difficulties of maintaining biodiversity.
C. Scientists’ efforts to protect endangered animals.
D. The importance of the birth of the cloned arctic wolf.
6. What is Sun Quanhui’s attitude towards cloning technology?
A. Cautious. B. Confident. C. Uncertain. D. Disapproving.
7. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Maya was trained to live with wolf groups in the lab.
B. Another male arctic wolf is expected to be born soon.
C. Maya is favored by many visitors to the Harbin Polarland.
D. Cloning technology will be applied to more endangered species.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了为了拯救濒危的北极狼,北京希诺基生物技术公司与哈尔滨极地公司合作克隆了北极狼。结果,经过两年的努力,北极狼克隆成功了。这在世界上尚属首例。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Born on June 10, 2022, the wolf, named Maya, is energetic and in very good health.”(这只狼出生于2022年6月10日,名叫玛雅,精力充沛,身体健康。)可知,关于玛雅我们知道她身体状况很好。故选B项。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段““This is our new attempt and breakthrough in protecting and breeding(繁育) wild and endangered animals. The birth of the world’s first cloned arctic wolf is a milestone for the application of cloning technology and is of great importance to biodiversity, the protection of wildlife, and the restoration(修复) of endangered species in the world,” Mi Jidong, the company’s general manager, said.”(“这是我们在保护和繁殖野生和濒危动物方面的新尝试和突破。世界上第一只克隆的北极狼的诞生是克隆技术应用的一个里程碑,对生物多样性、野生动物保护和世界濒危物种的恢复具有重要意义,”该公司总经理米继东说。)可知,第三段的主要讲的是克隆北极狼诞生的重要性。故选D项。

Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega. It is cute and appears to be useful in increasing young children’s language skills. Developed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT), Tega sounds like a child, makes its body and face full of energy while storytelling and explains the tales on a screen with pictures.
In an eight-week experiment, Tega read picture books to 67 children aged from 4 to 6 in weekly meetings lasting an hour. During the meetings, Tega asked questions to have knowledge of the listeners’ language skills, tested them on a word’s meaning or asked them to draw conclusions about a character. For example, Tega asked, “What do you think will happen to the boy?” Tega also recorded the facial expressions and body positions of the children to see how interested they were. For example, leaning forward was considered a good sign. After the book was finished, the children retold the story to Tega in their own words.
One group of kids played with a personalized version(版本) of the robot, which improved each time it interacted with the kids, learning about their language skills from the conversations they had. For this group, Tega chose which book to read based on what it thought would be most suitable and informative for the children’s language level. Every second time, Tega would replace several words in the story for these children with more difficult words with similar meanings, such as “clamour” in place of “noise”.
A second group interacted with a non-personalized Tega that remembered the children each week, but chose stories to read at random (随机的) from its library of 81 picture books. For this group, the story difficulty increased every two weeks. A third group of kids didn’t interact with Tega at all.
Several weeks after the last meeting, the team found that all the children who played with Tega had increased their vocabularies(词汇), but the personalized group learned the most words. Their error rate on a vocabulary test dropped by 23 percent, almost double that of the non-personalized group. The stories that the children told back to the personalized robot were also longer and more wonderful, says team member Hae Won Park.

With enough money, it’s possible to do something unbelievable in Dubai and now you can add another to the list — walking on the moon. Recently, Canadian architectural company Moon World Resorts announced plans to construct a $5 billion resort (度假村) that looks like the moon in Dubai.
The project, named Moon Dubai, is meant to help visitors experience space tourism, which allows guests to find out what it is like to walk on the moon. The resort will be very luxurious and contemporary, with a lot of components inside that one would already know — for example, a wellness area, residential properties, restaurants, a convention center, and a spa, each with a lunar twist (月球扭). It will also include a training platform for space agencies and astronauts.
Space tourism currently comes with a big price tag, and it’s a barrier to entry for most travelers. However, the moon resort experience will be significantly cheaper. A walk on the lunar surface of the moon resort is much more affordable at $500.
“Moon Dubai will significantly impact every aspect of the UAE’s economy, including tourism, transportation, commercial and residential real estate, infrastructure, financial services, aviation and space, energy, agriculture, technology and of course education,” says Michael R. Henderson, co-founder of Moon World Resorts. “It will be the largest and most successful modern-day tourism project in the MENA region, doubling annual tourism visitations to Dubai based on its global appeal, brand awareness and unique multiple integrated offerings.”
Whether the project will eventually take off is currently unknown. If the design can be successful, it will require a 12-month pre-development planning program and a 48-month building process. But the company’s plan is viable (可行的). Moreover, Henderson estimated that the moon resort could open in 2027.
12. What do we know about the moon resort?
A. It is designed to send people to the moon.
B. It is a cheaper option for space tourism.
C. It serves as a platform for scientists to explore space.
D. It provides visitors with space classes taught by astronauts.
13. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The features of the moon resort. B. The key role of tourism in Dubai.
C. The potential value of Moon Dubai. D. The purpose of carrying out Moon Dubai.
14. What stage is the moon resort at?
A. Test. B. Design. C. Operation. D. Construction.
15. What is the main purpose of this text?
A. To introduce a tourism project in Dubai.
B. To encourage people to visit the moon resort.
C. To show the development of Dubai’s space industry.
D. To present the commercial success of Moon World Resorts.

【答案】Dear Daniel,
I’m very sorry to hear that a conflict occurred between you and your mother because of your Internet addiction.
In my opinion, you should apologize to your mother. Although the Internet plays an important role in modern life, we can’t ignore its harm. Many students spend much time on the Internet, which may result in poor health and affect their study. Worse still, students may also have less communication with the real world.
You’d better take some exercise to keep fit or do some reading for fun. Only in this way can you live and study happily and healthily.
Yours

主谓一致的定义
主谓一致是句子主语和谓语在“人称”和“数”方面保持一致,一般遵循三个原则:语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。
三大原则
(一)语法一致原则
主语的单复数决定了谓语动词的单复数。
1、不可数名词或可数名词单数形式作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式;可数名词的复数形式作主语时,谓语动词用复数形式。

Fun things to do in high school
Learn another language
Your school might be holding foreign languages classes, so this is a great way to start your language learning journey! If you want more self-paced learning, apps like Duolingo are easily accessible (可使用的) on our mobile phones. As our world becomes more interconnected, it’s always good to learn another language or two.
Aim for a semester (学期) of straight A
This can be a difficult task but not impossible to achieve, as long as you put in the right amount of work and effort. If you are struggling(挣扎)with your grades, you can host or join group studies with your classmates!
Don’t be disheartened if you are not able to get an A in a semester. What’s important is having the drive to go forward. As a famous person once said, “He who would climb a ladder must begin at the bottom.
Experience another culture
Culture and tradition are something that all humans share. No matter where we come from, we always bring our culture with us. People coming from different cultures may be among your friends or neighbors.
You can go to a museum, read a book, or try new food in your area. Remember to keep an open mind and take the time to learn about them.
Bring a shareable treat to class
If you know your way around the kitchen, you can impress your class by making and bringing them a delicious treat! Not only will this make their stomachs happy, but you’ll also bond (联系) the whole class together. Just don’t forget to check with your teacher first before bringing one.

To save endangered arctic wolves, the Beijing-based Sinogene Biotechnology Company cooperated with Harbin Polarland on cloning the arctic wolf. As a result, after two years of thorough efforts, the arctic wolf was cloned successfully. It is the first case of its kind in the world.
Born on June 10, 2022, the wolf, named Maya, is energetic and in very good health. Her donor cell came from the skin sample of a wild female arctic wolf, who had been introduced from Canada. However, her oocyte (卵母细胞) was from a female dog, and her surrogate mother(代孕母体)was a beagle(小猎犬). The selection of a dog as Maya’s surrogate was made because dogs share a genetic ancestor(祖先) with ancient wolves, and it’s more likely to succeed through cloning technology.
“This is our new attempt and breakthrough in protecting and breeding(繁育) wild and endangered animals. The birth of the world’s first cloned arctic wolf is a milestone for the application of cloning technology and is of great importance to biodiversity, the protection of wildlife, and the restoration(修复) of endangered species in the world,” Mi Jidong, the company’s general manager, said.
Cloning technology is a breeding method different from natural reproduction. Some raised arguments relating to the cloned arctic wolf. Sun Quanhui, a scientist from the World Animal Protection Organization, said that cloning technology is still in the exploratory stage of research, and there are many technical and moral issues that need to be handled and treated with caution. Sun believed cloning should be considered only for endangered wild animals whose species are extinct, or whose captive populations are very limited.
The cloned wolf now lives with her surrogate beagle in a lab, and later she will be delivered to the Harbin Polarland and displayed to the public. The cloned wolf would live by herself in the park in the initial stage because she may not be able to adapt to original arctic wolf groups. However, it is reported that the technology of cloning arctic wolves has gained strong value in its application, and another male cloned arctic wolf will come into this world in the near future.
4. What do we know about Maya?
A. She was born in Canada. B. She is in good condition.
C. She is the first cloned animal in China. D. She shares similar living habits with dogs.
5. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The development of cloning technology.
B. The difficulties of maintaining biodiversity.
C. Scientists’ efforts to protect endangered animals.
D. The importance of the birth of the cloned arctic wolf.
6. What is Sun Quanhui’s attitude towards cloning technology?
A. Cautious. B. Confident. C. Uncertain. D. Disapproving.
7. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Maya was trained to live with wolf groups in the lab.
B. Another male arctic wolf is expected to be born soon.
C. Maya is favored by many visitors to the Harbin Polarland.
D. Cloning technology will be applied to more endangered species.

Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega. It is cute and appears to be useful in increasing young children’s language skills. Developed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT), Tega sounds like a child, makes its body and face full of energy while storytelling and explains the tales on a screen with pictures.
In an eight-week experiment, Tega read picture books to 67 children aged from 4 to 6 in weekly meetings lasting an hour. During the meetings, Tega asked questions to have knowledge of the listeners’ language skills, tested them on a word’s meaning or asked them to draw conclusions about a character. For example, Tega asked, “What do you think will happen to the boy?” Tega also recorded the facial expressions and body positions of the children to see how interested they were. For example, leaning forward was considered a good sign. After the book was finished, the children retold the story to Tega in their own words.
One group of kids played with a personalized version(版本) of the robot, which improved each time it interacted with the kids, learning about their language skills from the conversations they had. For this group, Tega chose which book to read based on what it thought would be most suitable and informative for the children’s language level. Every second time, Tega would replace several words in the story for these children with more difficult words with similar meanings, such as “clamour” in place of “noise”.
A second group interacted with a non-personalized Tega that remembered the children each week, but chose stories to read at random (随机的) from its library of 81 picture books. For this group, the story difficulty increased every two weeks. A third group of kids didn’t interact with Tega at all.
Several weeks after the last meeting, the team found that all the children who played with Tega had increased their vocabularies(词汇), but the personalized group learned the most words. Their error rate on a vocabulary test dropped by 23 percent, almost double that of the non-personalized group. The stories that the children told back to the personalized robot were also longer and more wonderful, says team member Hae Won Park.
8. What do we know about Tega?
A. It has a voice of an adult. B. It is connected to the Internet.
C. It can tell stories in a lively way. D. It is mainly designed to entertain kids.
9. Why did Tega ask questions during the meetings?
A. To keep the kids interested. B. To help kids better understand a story.
C. To know about the kids’ language skills. D. To encourage the kids to think independently.
10. What do the results of the experiment show?
A. Young kids really love interacting with others.
B. The robot needs to be improved to work better.
C. Children can increase their vocabularies quickly.
D. The personalized version of the robot helps kids most
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. A new invention for kids. B. A personalized teaching method.
C. A new way to increase kids’ vocabularies. D. A study carried out by researchers recently.

With enough money, it’s possible to do something unbelievable in Dubai and now you can add another to the list — walking on the moon. Recently, Canadian architectural company Moon World Resorts announced plans to construct a $5 billion resort (度假村) that looks like the moon in Dubai.
The project, named Moon Dubai, is meant to help visitors experience space tourism, which allows guests to find out what it is like to walk on the moon. The resort will be very luxurious and contemporary, with a lot of components inside that one would already know — for example, a wellness area, residential properties, restaurants, a convention center, and a spa, each with a lunar twist (月球扭). It will also include a training platform for space agencies and astronauts.
Space tourism currently comes with a big price tag, and it’s a barrier to entry for most travelers. However, the moon resort experience will be significantly cheaper. A walk on the lunar surface of the moon resort is much more affordable at $500.
“Moon Dubai will significantly impact every aspect of the UAE’s economy, including tourism, transportation, commercial and residential real estate, infrastructure, financial services, aviation and space, energy, agriculture, technology and of course education,” says Michael R. Henderson, co-founder of Moon World Resorts. “It will be the largest and most successful modern-day tourism project in the MENA region, doubling annual tourism visitations to Dubai based on its global appeal, brand awareness and unique multiple integrated offerings.”
Whether the project will eventually take off is currently unknown. If the design can be successful, it will require a 12-month pre-development planning program and a 48-month building process. But the company’s plan is viable (可行的). Moreover, Henderson estimated that the moon resort could open in 2027.
12. What do we know about the moon resort?
A. It is designed to send people to the moon.
B. It is a cheaper option for space tourism.
C. It serves as a platform for scientists to explore space.
D. It provides visitors with space classes taught by astronauts.
