It is their way of sharing information. When a bee starts dancing, it steps forward. At the same time, it moves side to side. It keeps doing this while it moves around. They dance just like number eight and scientists call this the “waggle dance”. It helps other bees find food. The bee’s position tells them which way to fly. The more a bee moves, the farther away the food is. The longer it repeats these moves, the tastier the food is. Now a new study shows that honeybees don’t have these dance skills when they are born. Young bees learn them by watching the older bees. In March 2023, scientists from the University of California, San Diego, wrote these findings in a scientific magazine. The study finds that bees can learn by imitating (模仿) each other. This is called “social learning”. Many animals learn in this way, like monkeys and birds, but most of these animals have bigger brains. Bees have much smaller brains. To know how bees learn the waggle dance, scientists recorded videos of honeybees in a lab. They compared two groups of young bees which were 10 days old. In the first group, young bees could watch older ones dance. In the second group, young bees could not watch older dancers. They found that the ones in Group 1 were better dancers while the ones in Group 2 were not good at the waggle dance. 30 Which picture can best describe the underlined words “waggle dance”? A. B. C. D. 31. The writer talks about monkeys and birds in Paragraph 4 to show that ________. A. bees also learn by copying others B. they are much cleverer than bees C. they have bigger brains than bees D. bees share information with them 32. Which is the best title for the text? A. Older bees also learn how to dance B. Honeybees are good at looking for food C. How to dance well to get tasty food D. An important study on bees in 2023 B What’s your dream job? How much do you know about it? A group of students from Tianjin found a problem among young teenagers: Most of them have few ideas about their career (职业) plans. To offer teenagers proper career guidance (指导), the students from Tianjin TEDA No. 1 Middle School started a project called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi”. “Our survey shows that 75 percent of students want to know more about different jobs. Doctors, accountants (会计) and lawyers are the top three,” said Wang Xinran, 16, the project leader. Based on students’ needs, the team interviewed (采访) 32 experts in different fields and put their interviews online. They shared true stories behind each job, allowing students to learn about the jobs clearly. “We also invited the experts to give speeches in our school in order that students could talk to them face to face,” said Wang. Team member Lu Jinyan said his most impressive (印象深刻的) interview was with a photographer (摄影师). “I used to think being a photographer was cool. But now I know that they need to deal with lots of problems, such as a sudden change of weather or broken cameras. They also need to communicate (交流) with different people, which is very hard.” But the project doesn’t mean disappointing students by telling them the truth. “We want to show their good sides rather than the bad sides,” said group member Zhao Yajie. “The project’s name means turning a career into a poem. We believe working is not just about bread and butter. It should be like a poem, full of love and beauty. And we hope our project can let students know that.” 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 33.

The place of mangrove planting in China is between 20°-30°N and 105°-120°E. Some parts of the trees are out of the water. They are home to mammals like monkeys. The other parts in the water make great homes for baby sea animals, like baby fish. Mangroves can grow as high as 10 meters. They keep the land away from strong winds and waves (海浪).

He always felt nervous when he was around other kids. One day, his teacher announced (宣布) a group project, and Frank was paired with a girl named Betty. At first, Frank was very nervous. He didn’t know what to say or how to work with her. But Betty was kind and friendly. She smiled at him and said, “Don’t worry. We can do this together.” Frank felt a little better. As they worked on the project, Frank started to feel happy. Betty was full of ideas, and Frank found himself enjoying their conversations. They laughed and shared stories. Frank felt like he had a real friend for the first time. But then, something unexpected happened. They lost all their work because of a computer problem. Frank felt so sad and frustrated (沮丧的). He thought they would never finish the project on time. Betty, however, stayed calm and said, “It’s okay. We can start over. We can make it.” Frank was amazed by her strong will and felt encouraged. With Betty’s support, Frank felt hopeful again. They worked even harder and finally finished the project. When they showed it to the class, everyone clapped and praised their work. Frank felt proud and happy. He realized that friendship could turn even the hardest time into something beautiful.

You just ate one of nature’s hottest foods—the chilli pepper (辣椒)! Chilli peppers, also called chillies, are found in dishes around the world. Chillies come from the capsicum plant (辣椒属植物). They are “hot” because they contain something called capsaicin (辣椒素). Capsaicin is very good for your health. It helps you breathe better, and it may even help keep you fit. Capsaicin makes you feel less hungry. It also makes your body burn more calories. We can measure the heat (辣度) of chillies in units called Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The world’s hottest chilli is the Carolina Reaper. It sometimes measures up to 2 million SHU! Eating a hot chilli can be uncomfortable, but some people love to eat it. In 2009, Anandita Dutta Tamuly, a woman from Assam, India, became famous for eating chillies. She ate 51 hot peppers in just two minutes! The peppers were Nag a Jolokia (“Ghost Peppers”). They grow in Assam and are one of the hottest chillies in the world. “I found eating chillies was a great way to stay healthy,” said Tamuly. She began eating chillies when she was a child. She ate chillies when she didn’t feel well. “Every time I have a cold or flu, I just eat some chillies and I feel better. To be honest, I hardly notice them now.” 48.

Scientists have long known that honeybees move their bodies. It is their way of sharing information. When a bee starts dancing, it steps forward. At the same time, it moves side to side. It keeps doing this while it moves around. They dance just like number eight and scientists call this the “waggle dance”. It helps other bees find food. The bee’s position tells them which way to fly. The more a bee moves, the farther away the food is. The longer it repeats these moves, the tastier the food is. Now a new study shows that honeybees don’t have these dance skills when they are born. Young bees learn them by watching the older bees. In March 2023, scientists from the University of California, San Diego, wrote these findings in a scientific magazine. The study finds that bees can learn by imitating (模仿) each other. This is called “social learning”. Many animals learn in this way, like monkeys and birds, but most of these animals have bigger brains. Bees have much smaller brains. To know how bees learn the waggle dance, scientists recorded videos of honeybees in a lab. They compared two groups of young bees which were 10 days old. In the first group, young bees could watch older ones dance. In the second group, young bees could not watch older dancers. They found that the ones in Group 1 were better dancers while the ones in Group 2 were not good at the waggle dance. 30. Which picture can best describe the underlined words “waggle dance”? A. B. C. D. 31. The writer talks about monkeys and birds in Paragraph 4 to show that ________.

Older bees also learn how to dance B. Honeybees are good at looking for food C. How to dance well to get tasty food D. An important study on bees in 2023 【答案】30. B 31. A 32.

Your mouth feels like it is on fire. Your eyes start to water. You just ate one of nature’s hottest foods—the chilli pepper (辣椒)! Chilli peppers, also called chillies, are found in dishes around the world. Chillies come from the capsicum plant (辣椒属植物). They are “hot” because they contain something called capsaicin (辣椒素). Capsaicin is very good for your health. It helps you breathe better, and it may even help keep you fit. Capsaicin makes you feel less hungry. It also makes your body burn more calories. We can measure the heat (辣度) of chillies in units called Scoville Heat Units (SHU). The world’s hottest chilli is the Carolina Reaper. It sometimes measures up to 2 million SHU! Eating a hot chilli can be uncomfortable, but some people love to eat it. In 2009, Anandita Dutta Tamuly, a woman from Assam, India, became famous for eating chillies. She ate 51 hot peppers in just two minutes! The peppers were Nag a Jolokia (“Ghost Peppers”). They grow in Assam and are one of the hottest chillies in the world. “I found eating chillies was a great way to stay healthy,” said Tamuly. She began eating chillies when she was a child. She ate chillies when she didn’t feel well. “Every time I have a cold or flu, I just eat some chillies and I feel better. To be honest, I hardly notice them now.” 48. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 1? A. The chilli pepper. B. The feeling. C. Water. D. The mouth. 49. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. To advise us not to eat more chillies. B. To explain how capsaicin is good for us. C. To show chillies are the hottest food. D. To explain why eating chillies is uncomfortable. 50. Which of the following is NOT true about Anandita Dutta Tamuly? A. She is famous for eating Carolina Reaper. B. She ate chillies when she didn’t feel comfortable. C. She started eating chillies when she was a child. D. She thought eating chillies was good for health. 51. In Paragraph 6, the underlined part “I hardly notice them” means “________”. A. I don’t eat hot chillies anymore B. I feel the heat of the chillies even more C. I almost don’t feel the heat of the chillies D. I want to eat the world’s hottest chilli 52. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to eat very hot chilli peppers. B. The facts about chilli peppers. C. Ideas for cooking chilli peppers. D. Why people don’t like chilli peppers. 【答案】48. D 49. B 50. A 51. C 52. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了辣椒的相关事实，包括辣椒含有的辣椒素及其对健康的益处、辣椒辣度的衡量单位、世界上最辣的辣椒品种，以及印度女性Anandita Dutta Tamuly吃辣的事例和她对吃辣椒的看法。 【48题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“You just ate one of nature’s hottest foods—the chilli pepper (辣椒)!”可知，此处描述的是“吃了辣椒，嘴巴像着火”的感受，“it”指代的是嘴巴。故选D。 【49题详解】 段落大意题。根据“Capsaicin is very good for your health. It helps you breathe better, and it may even help keep you fit. Capsaicin makes you feel less hungry. It also makes your body burn more calories.”可知，该段主要阐述了辣椒素对人体的好处，包括帮助呼吸、保持健康、减少饥饿感和燃烧更多卡路里。故选B。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 2009, Anandita Dutta Tamuly... She ate 51 hot peppers in just two minutes! The peppers were Nag a Jolokia (“Ghost Peppers”).”可知，她因吃“鬼椒”(Nag a Jolokia)而出名，并非卡罗莱纳死神辣椒(Carolina Reaper)，选项A表述错误。故选A。 【51题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“She began eating chillies when she was a child. She ate chillies when she didn’t feel well. ‘Every time I have a cold or flu, I just eat some chillies and I feel better.’”可知，她从小就吃辣椒，生病时也吃，对辣椒的辣度已经适应，所以“hardly notice them”指几乎感觉不到辣椒的辣度。故选C。 【52题详解】 主旨大意题。文章依次介绍了辣椒的来源、含有的辣椒素及益处、辣度衡量单位、最辣辣椒品种，还有吃辣事例，整体围绕辣椒的相关事实展开。故选B。 F Hello!
