Carhenge, Floralis Genérica, Traffic Light Tree and Hand of the Desert—these are four unusual monuments from around the world you might like to visit. • Carhenge Carhenge is in Alliance, Nebraska (USA). It has a lot in common with Stonehenge. But while Stonehenge was built with stones, Carhenge was created with cars. The monument was made by a local artist Jim Reinders. He used old cars and even an ambulance. At first, the people of Alliance didn’t like it, but they soon changed their minds after it became popular with tourists, who brought lots of money to the town. • Floralis Genérica Floralis Genérica is a massive statue of a flower. It stands in a pool of water in front of the National Museum of Fine Arts in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Eduardo Catalano, a native of Argentina, gave the statue as a gift to the city in 2002. Every morning, the flower opens. In fact, many people believe it is one of the most beautiful statues in the world. • Traffic Light Tree The Traffic Light Tree is situated at Heron Quay, in one of London’s financial districts. The tree has 75 sets of traffic lights. It was created by French artist, Pierre Vivant, and was installed in 1998. A computer controls the lights, which are turned on and off randomly. • Mano del Desierto (Hand of the Desert) The Hand of the Desert is in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The sculpture was designed by the Chilean sculptor Mario Irarrazabal. From a distance, it looks as if there’s a giant in the sand who has stuck his hand out of the ground. If you’re looking for something new to see, you know where to go! 21. Why did the people of Alliance change their attitude toward Carhenge? A. It reminded them of Stonehenge. B. It brought them financial benefits. C. It added beauty to their community. D. It showed the creativity of the designer. 22. What makes Traffic Light Tree different from the other three monuments? A. It is located in a financial district. B. It was created by a local artist. C. It involves technology in its design. D. It is shaped like a natural object. 23. What do Floralis Genérica and Mano del Desierto have in common? A. They are both located in Asian. B. They were both created by local artists. C. They are both made of stone. D. They both depend on technology to work. B My head was so full of digital noise that it felt like my brain was about to blow up. I had no greater power of concentration than the lifeless stare of a goldfish. As a writer, I was ashamed to admit that my love of books had been compromised by a brain that simply could not sit still. So, this year I devoted myself to restoring（使复原，使复位） books to the place that they held in my life before the Internet broke my brain. My goal was 52 books: It seemed like an impossible task. A 400-page book will take the average person around eight hours to read. Finding the time to read was a challenge but here’s how I did it. Firstly, I decided to treat my mind like a misbehaving child who needs some rules laid down. Then I decided that I would read for an hour or two at a time without distraction (分心) each day. It was something I hadn’t done in years and it was scary how difficult it was. In his book, The Distracted Mind, Larry Rosen says that the more we practice spending time away from our electronic devices, the calmer and more focused we become. And this is what I found. Again and again, I would gently bring myself back to the page, resisting the desire to reach for that screen. I took inspiration from Niki Gemmell, who describes in On Quiet, how locking away her family’s devices for long periods had opened up a space for deep reflection. For me, finding that quiet time meant finding time in my day just to read. It was like a date between me and my book. And it meant actively choosing to read at times when I normally would reach for my phone. I read on the bus, at the park, in bed at night and during lunch breaks. By reawakening my love with books I created a sacred space where I could press pause and found inspiration, knowledge, reflection and escape. In our modern world, reading is a powerful and beneficial way for us to slow down and be ourselves. 24. What was the first thing the author did to achieve the goal? A. The author went to the bookstore to buy books. B. The author decided to make some rules for himself. C. The author was buried in reading for an hour or two at once. D. The author was going to join in some reading groups. 25. What does the author think of electronic devices? A. Useless. B. Harmful. C. Beneficial. D. Distractive. 26. What can we infer about the author? A. The author benefited a lot from reading books. B. The author got inspiration when he reached for the screen. C. The author would rather read books outdoors than indoors. D. The author was reminded to kill time with electronic devices. 27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

He is fluent in French, and now he’s learning German. M: He also knows a little Russian. And I hear that he even wants to learn Chinese. Text 2 M: You really must have had a good time. W: I did, but it’s more than that. Everything there seemed so different and so strange. Text 3 M: Good morning. I’d like some information about the bus please. W: Yes, sir. Where are you going? M: When is the next bus to London, please? W: At a quarter past ten. That’s in about ten minutes. Text 4 M: How did you like the food here? W: Better than I expected. I didn’t know Chinese food was so good. M: Are you going back on the Wednesday flight? W: Yes. Text 5 W: When are you leaving for Germany? M: I don’t know. This is really difficult. I don’t know what to do about the flat. W: Is it yours? Do you own it? M: No, I rent it. But all the furniture is mine. Text 6 W: That’s a fair price. The problem is. I can’t afford it right now, even though it’s a good deal. I guess I’ll look for something cheaper. M: You could, and you like this car. right? Tell you what. If I could get the price down another S 500. would that be affordable for you? W: $ 500? Well, that would certainly help. If you could get it down another $ 1,000, I’d definitely buy it. M: OK. I need to talk with my manager. Please wait here a few moments. Would you like any coffee or tea? Text 7 M: There are so many places to go on our sightseeing trip that I am having trouble narrowing it down. W: Let’s figure out what to do before lunch and what to do in the afternoon. M: I heard that the local beach is a place that can’t be missed. W: That would be a relaxing way to begin our morning. It would be good to get out in the sun. M: The Natural History Museum is close by, isn’t it? W: Yes. It is supposed to be fantastic! M: Do you have any suggestions as to where we could go in the afternoon?

Did you have any trouble getting here today? W: No, I was fine, thank you. M: Well, we are glad to have you join the team, Grace. W: Wait. I already have the job? M: Of course not! I was just saying that if we were to hire you, we would be happy that we had. The job pays good money, and you would be lucky if we were to offer it to you. Do you have any questions? W: Um… What exactly would I be doing? M: Anyway, your salary would not depend on your selling things. Anything else? W: Uh, no, I guess not. M: Well, I suppose we’re done here! I, of course, have to check with the manager, but you seem like the perfect person for the job. Text 9 W: Dad, can I go to a movie this week with Janet? M: Okay. When are you thinking about going to a movie? W: Uh, we’re thinking about seeing a movie on Wednesday after school. M: Well, that’s not going to work. You have piano lessons after school and then you have to babysit for the neighbors until 9:00. W: Umm, what about Friday night? I checked the paper, and there’s a midnight showing. M: Uh-uh, too late. Forget that idea. W: And Saturday? M: Well. let me check the paper for show times. W: Can I go see the nine o’clock showing? M: The five o’clock showing? W: How about the seven o’clock showing? M: Sorry, but I want you to get to bed early that night. W: Okay. Text 10 W: Hello, everyone. Today, I’ll talk about bird watching in the United States. One of the best places for bird watching is San Juan Capistrano. It is not far from San Diego. Thousands of people go to visit this town. It is as old as the United States. The favorite day to be there is March 19. This is the day when the swallows return. Swallows are small birds with beautiful, long tails. They fly every year from Argentina and always arrive on the same date. People wait all day to watch for them. First, they just see a few swallows. Then more of the birds arrive. Soon the sky is full of them. On October 23, the swallows leave San Juan Capistrano. They fly back to Argentina. When it is cold in California, it is hot in Argentina. That is why these interesting birds live in two different countries. They like to be where the weather is warm. Many Americans like to watch birds. In the eastern states, where the winters are very cold. the most popular bird is the robin. No one hears its happy song when the snow begins to fall in November. The robins fly to Mexico to find warm weather. After a few months the robins return and the people are happy to see them. The people know that spring is near. 听力答案： 1-5 CAABC 6-10 CBBAB 11-15 ABCBC 16-20 AACAB 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B C B B D A B A D A 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 B C B B A F C G E B A 【答案】21.

It’s to take breaks. As a matter of fact, the brain has more limited (有限的) energy resources than you probably think. Therefore. it tires quickly and its levels of attention begin to drop after about 30 to 45 minutes.(提高记忆力的秘诀似乎很简单。这是为了休息。事实上，大脑的能量资源比你想象的要有限得多。因此。大约30到45分钟后，大脑很快就会疲劳，注意力水平开始下降)”结合文章主要讲述了提高记忆力的关键就是要适当休息。大脑放空一定的时间才是真正意义的休息，休息好不仅能提高记忆力，对我们的身体也是大有益处，这最可能来自一份科学报告，故选A。 E 【答案】36.

This harms both physical and mental health. To foster a healthier lifestyle, we propose the following actions. Firstly, obtain balanced nutrition by avoiding processed snacks and embracing a nutritious diet. Secondly, engage in moderate exercise, whether jogging, dancing, or yoga for at least 30 minutes daily. Additionally, seek professional guidance instead of relying on online advice. By taking active steps, we can not only manage our weight effectively but also enhance our overall quality of life. Let’s embark on this journey towards a fitter and more vibrant self! The Student Union Falling in love with reading. B. Going back to the books. C. Escaping from the noisy world. D. Leading a slow life. C Today's world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. Key skill set for success is persistence (毅力), a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence. BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time, the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school. "There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers, "Padilla-Walker said. "This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence-which can be taught-are key to a child's life success.” Researchers determined that dads need to practice an “authoritative（权威的）” parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian: strict, demanding or controlling. Rather, an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics: children feel warmth and love from their father; responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed; children are given an appropriate level of autonomy(自主权). In the study, about 52 percent of the dads showed above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time, children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence, which leads to better outcomes in school. This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence, which is a direction of future research. 28. What is special about the BYU professors' study? A. It centered on fathers' role in parenting. B. It was based on a number of large families. C. It studied different kinds of parenting styles. D. It aimed to improve kids' achievement in school. 29. What would an authoritative father do when raising his children? A. Ignore their demands. B. Make decisions for them. C. Control their behaviors. D. Explain the rules to them. 30. Which group can be a focus of future studies according to the researchers? A. Single parents. B. Children aged from 11 to 14. C. Authoritarian fathers. D. Mothers in two-parent homes. 31. What can we conclude from the passage? A. Persistence is the most important skill for young adults' success. B. Fathers' parenting style has a significant influence on children's persistence. C. Single parents cannot help children develop persistence. D. Authoritative parenting is the only way to improve school performance. D If you want to improve your memory, you need to know how your brain works. You might be surprised to hear that your lifestyle habits might be making it difficult for you to correctly record each piece of information, experience, or learning. It would appear that the secret to improving your memory is really simple. It’s to take breaks. As a matter of fact, the brain has more limited energy resources than you probably think. Therefore, it tires quickly and its levels of attention begin to drop after about 30 to 45 minutes. The hippocampus(海马体) is the area of your brain that’s responsible for consolidating your short-term memories in the long term. Furthermore, for this consolidation to be possible, there must be a connection with different areas of the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层) . At the present time, we know that, for best connectivity, we must rest. Therefore, factors such as tiredness, bad feelings, or stress make it difficult to connect one area to the other. Michaela Dewar, a researcher at the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom, conducted a study with other experts to understand how to improve memory consolidation processes. What they found was that something as simple as taking breaks of between 9 and 15 minutes improves memory, both in healthy people and in those with neurological damage (神经系统受损) . However, there’s one small detail that’s important. The rest must be real rest. In other words, you should go to a quiet space and give up anything that takes your attention away. This includes not having your cellphone nearby. The secret to improving your memory requires you to rest for between 10 and 15 minutes leaving your mind completely empty. Your lifestyle plays an extremely important role in the way your memory functions. Rest isn’t wasting time. In fact, allowing yourself small breaks is good for your health and well-being. 32. What is the secret to improving memory? A. Learning about brain. B. Recording every details. C. Having breaks. D. Forming good habits. 33. What factor may influence the connection between different areas of cerebral cortex? A. Satisfaction. B. Sadness. C. Excitement. D. Happiness. 34. What does the underlined word “consolidating” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Creating. B. Strengthening.  C. Forgetting. D. Collecting. 35. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A science report. B. A dictionary. C. A course plan. D. A textbook. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Walking has been considered as one kind of rewarding exercise. For many people, daily walking offers massive and long-term physical and mental benefits. 36 A Stanford University study found that people were more creative when walking in comparison with sitting. 37 You’ve probably heard the phrase “exercise your creativity”. Our creative mindset is stirred up by physical movement, which is exactly why walking with your dog, a friend, or alone feeds creative thinking. But the scenery is almost as important as the sweat. Just by going outside, you are stepping out of your habitual surroundings and your comfort zone, which is necessary if you want to open your mind to new possibilities. You can walk through a tree-filled neighborhood. 38 Even when you walk down a busy street, you can’t help but get distracted by the sweet smells from a food cart or the child pointing to a building you haven’t even noticed before. Walking outside develops our ability to collect new ideas and take in new sights, sounds, smells, and flavors. Shinrin-yoku, a common form of relaxation in Japan, suggests that being in the forest and walking among the trees there can lower your stress levels. 39 Research has shown that getting close to nature around your neighborhood or taking a break from multimedia increases performance on a creative problem-solving task. So instead of setting a fitness goal, why not set a creativity goal that starts with walking outdoors? 40 For example, you can turn off your phone and give yourself the chance to be present in the world, to hear conversations and natural sounds, and to notice the way people move and the way the sun reflects in a lake. Walk not just for exercise. Walk for wonder. A. Unfortunately, you often fail to do it. B. Step into the outside world more often。 C. The movement during walking is obviously key. D. Without enough energy, you cannot wonder or create. E. But to receive the benefits, you do not have to live in a forest. F. This habit, however, not only benefits fitness but also contributes to creativity. G. Walking around a park and observing people relaxing or birds singing is also a choice. 第三部分 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As a businesswoman, I care deeply about my customers.
