Over the past three years, Kang Jian has created more than 400 dough sculptures (面塑) and become a city-level inheritor (传承人) of this intangible cultural heritage in Mohe, Heilongjiang Province.
“When I was a little boy, every time my parents made dumplings, they would give me a small piece of dough,” he said. “I tried to make various animals — a rabbit, a fish, or a snail. The small, simple objects brought me lots of good childhood memories and planted the seeds of fine art, especially sculpture, in my heart.” Kang’s parents were not financially able to support his desire to study fine arts while he was at school. But he didn’t give up. He spent his spare time after school studying drawing by himself.
Then, in December 2018, during a visit to a museum in Beijing, Kang, for the first time, got information about the intangible cultural heritage of dough sculpting, which attracted him greatly. “I was really excited to learn about dough sculpting,” he said. “Then I had the idea of taking my childhood interest up again.” He then spent 20 days learning skills from Bai Chunyu, a provincial-level inheritor of dough sculpting. And in August 2019, he got the chance to learn from another national-level inheritor.
Kang spent nearly all his spare time practicing, hoping to improve quickly. “To learn as much as possible during my 40 days there, I practiced every day from 6 am until late at night,” he said. “When I slept, I had to put my hands in hot water to relieve the pain. But all the efforts turned out to be worth it.”
In April, Kang completed the dough sculptures of 108 characters from the novel Outlaws of the Marsh after 16 months of work. “Most of my dough sculptures are traditional Chinese characters. In my mind, the real value of my dough sculpture as a national intangible cultural heritage lies in its connection with traditional Chinese culture. That’s the charm and significance of the art,” he said.
4. What inspired Kang to have the dream of dough sculpting?
A. His talent for drawing.
B. His admiration for Bai’s skills.
C. His parents’ encouragement and support.
D. His childhood experiences with dough.
5. What did Kang do to learn dough sculpting?
A. He sought guidance from masters.
B. He paid frequent visits to museums.
C. He got formal training at an art school.
D. He sought help from many sculpting lovers.
6. What does Kang probably think of his learning of dough sculpting?
A. Tiring but rewarding. B. Costly and stressful.
C. Fruitful and smooth. D. Boring but productive.
7. Why does Kang like making dough sculptures of Chinese characters?
A. To get more recognition.
B. To attract more enthusiasts.
C. To better express Chinese culture.
D. To improve skills with familiar characters.

Knowing how to read, write and talk in one language is enough for many people. They prefer to focus their energy on other things that improve their lives. Scientists, however, continue to confirm that bilingualism, the ability to speak two languages fluently, has more benefits than many realize.
First, it’s good for a child’s brain. Learning a second language improves their academic achievements. Many studies have shown that children who learn a foreign language get better grades at school. Bilingual children also display a better facility in their native language. Their grammar, vocabulary and spelling skills are stronger than those of single-language speakers. Children who learn a second language become expert problem-solvers and creative thinkers. That’s because their brains are constantly working to sort out which language to speak and when. Studies further show that bilingual teens are better at multitasking.
Multilingual parents understand the benefits of learning more than one language. Ben Mazor of Montreal speaks English, French and Hebrew. He says, “Kids’ brains are like a sponge (海绵). They absorb everything. It comes to them so easily while they’re young. So why not give them the chance to learn another language?”
A number of studies show that bilingualism is valuable to the brain later in life. Scottish researchers did a study using data from 835 native English speakers, who took an IQ test at the age of 11. They were tested again in their 70s. Researchers then compared the tests. Those who spoke two or more languages had obviously better cognitive (认知的) abilities. Dr. Thomas Baka, co-author of the study, concluded, “Our results suggest a protective effect of bilingualism against age-related cognitive decline.”
So,who would refuse the benefits of learning a second language?
8. What does the underlined word “facility” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Ability. B. Interest. C. Taste. D. Method.
9. According to paragraph 3, what may parents like Ben Mazor do?
A. Learn foreign languages by themselves.
B. Spend more money on home schooling.
C. Involve kids in foreign language courses.
D. Help kids absorb knowledge like a sponge.
10. What has the Scottish researchers proved about bilingualism?
A. It extends one’s life. B. It improves test scores.
C. It cures brain disorders. D. It slows mental ageing.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Learning Betters Human Brain
B. Bilingualism Shows Great Advantages
C. Language Opens a New World to Kids
D. Bilingualism Leads to Academic Success
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述研究表明,双语能力有很多好处。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词下文“Their grammar, vocabulary and spelling skills are stronger than those of single-language speakers.(他们的语法、词汇和拼写能力比说单一语言的人更强)”可知,会双语的孩子在语法、词汇和拼写能力方面比说单一语言的人更强,由此可推知,划线词所在句意为:双语儿童在使用母语方面也表现出更好的能力,facility意为“能力”。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Multilingual parents understand the benefits of learning more than one language.(多语父母明白学习多种语言的好处)”及Ben Mazor说的话“So why not give them the chance to learn another language?(所以为什么不给他们学习另一种语言的机会呢?)”可推知,像Ben Mazor这样的会说多种语言的家长明白多语的好处,他们可能会让孩子参加外语课程。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第一段中“Dr. Thomas Baka, co-author of the study, concluded, ‘Our results suggest a protective effect of bilingualism against age-related cognitive decline.’(该研究的合著者Thomas Baka博士总结道:‘我们的研究结果表明,双语对对抗与年龄相关的认知衰退具有保护作用’)”可知,苏格兰研究者证明,说双语能减缓精神衰老。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合第一段中“Scientists, however, continue to confirm that bilingualism, the ability to speak two languages fluently, has more benefits than many realize.(然而,科学家们继续证实,双语能力,即流利地说两种语言的能力,比许多人意识到的好处更多)”可推知,本文主要讲述研究表明,说双语有很多好处,故“Bilingualism Shows Great Advantages”是最佳标题。故选B项。
D
Bat habitats (栖息地) are damaged by human activities despite their contribution to our environment. To ensure that we can study and improve the health of our bat population, we need to locate their habitats. But finding their habitats seems like a tall order. They are small and fast and primarily fly at night.
Our new research combines our previous mathematical model of bat movement with data gathered from sound recorders known as “bat detectors”. They are placed around the environment and left there for several nights.
Bats are able to “see with sound” when they’re flying. If the sounds are made within 10 to 15 meters of a bat detector, the device is started to make a recording, providing a proper record of where and when a bat is present. The sound recordings also provide information about the species of bat. Greater horseshoe bats make a very unique call at exactly 82 kHz, so we can easily tell whether the species is present or not.
Our model can also be used to predict the frequency (预测频率) of bat calls based on a given habitat location. So, we divided the environment into grids (网格). The squares whose recorders best collect the bat data will then be the most likely locations of the habitats. This simple method can be applied to whole landforms.
Cutting out the regions that are least likely to have the habitats can mean we reduce the search space to less than 1% of the firstly surveyed area, simplifying the process of finding bat habitats frees researchers to focus on safeguarding these areas, rather than struggling to find them.
In 2022, we developed an app that uses publicly sourced data to predict bat flight lines. At the moment, the app can help researchers, developers or local authority planners know how the environment is used by bats. However, it needs the habitat location to be provided first, and this information is not always known. Our new research removes this difficulty, making the app easier to use.
12. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 imply about locating a bat habitat?
A. It attracts a lot of interest. B. It is an extremely difficult task.
C. It has shown impressive progress. D. It often leads to unexpected discoveries.
13. Why is the greater horseshoe bat mentioned in the text?
A. To prove the exactness of sound recognition. B. To introduce the species’ survival skills.
C. To explain bats’ movement in darkness. D. To discuss bats’ habitat preferences.
14. What effect does the grid-based method in the new model primarily achieve?
A. It helps count bats in different areas. B. It controls the sound frequency of bat calls.
C. It reduces the influence of human activities. D. It enables proper judgment of possible habitats.
15. What limitation of the 2022 app does the new research deal with?
A. Inability to tell apart bat species.
B. Difficulty in guiding bats’ flight.
C. Dependence on pre-known habitat details.
D. Unsuitability for certain environmental conditions.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究人员如何利用新模型和声音记录器定位蝙蝠栖息地并改进相关应用。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“But finding their habitats seems like a tall order. They are small and fast and primarily fly at night.(但是找到它们的栖息地似乎是a tall order。它们体型小、速度快,而且主要在夜间飞行)”可知,划线短语所在句表示“但是找到它们的栖息地似乎是一项艰巨的任务”,即找到蝙蝠的栖息地是一项极其困难的任务。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“The sound recordings also provide information about the species of bat. Greater horseshoe bats make a very unique call at exactly 82 kHz, so we can easily tell whether the species is present or not.(声音记录还提供了蝙蝠种类的信息。大蹄鼻蝠会发出非常独特的叫声,频率正好是82千赫,所以我们可以很容易地判断这个物种是否存在)”可知,文中提到大蹄鼻蝠是为了证明声音识别的准确性。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Our model can also be used to predict the frequency (预测频率) of bat calls based on a given habitat location. So, we divided the environment into grids (网格). The squares whose recorders best collect the bat data will then be the most likely locations of the habitats.(我们的模型还可以根据给定的栖息地位置预测蝙蝠叫声的频率。因此,我们将环境划分为网格。记录器最能收集蝙蝠数据的方块将是栖息地最有可能的位置)”可知,新模型中基于网格的方法主要实现的效果是它能够对可能的栖息地做出正确的判断。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“At the moment, the app can help researchers, developers or local authority planners know how the environment is used by bats. However, it needs the habitat location to be provide first, and this information is not always known. Our new research removes this difficulty, making the app easier to use.(目前,这款应用可以帮助研究人员、开发人员或地方当局规划者了解蝙蝠如何利用环境。然而,它需要首先提供栖息地的位置,而这一信息并不总是已知的。我们的新研究消除了这一困难,使该应用程序更容易使用)”可知,新研究解决了2022年应用程序依赖预先已知的栖息地细节的局限性。故选C。

【解析】
【详解】考查句子结构。句意:这种书写体系在凝聚中华民族和中华文化方面具有十分重要的意义。句子的主语是That writing system,系动词是was,表语是of great importance;介词短语in uniting the Chinese people and culture作状语,用来修饰表语,说明重要性体现在哪个方面,所以本句是“主系表状”结构。故选B项。

C. 定+主+谓+宾+状+状 D. 定+主+谓+直宾+间宾+状
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查基本句型。句意:20世纪50年代,埃及政府想要在尼罗河上修建一座新大坝,以控制洪水、发电并向该地区更多的农民供水。“In the 1950s”是介词短语作时间状语,表示“在20世纪50年代”;“the Egyptian government”是主语,表示“埃及政府”;“wanted”是谓语,表示“想要”;“to build a new dam”是动词不定式短语作宾语,表示“修建一座新大坝”;“across the Nile”是介词短语作地点状语,表示“在尼罗河上”;“in order to control floods, produce electricity, and supply water to more farmers in the area”是动词不定式短语作目的状语,表示“以控制洪水、发电并向该地区更多的农民供水”。所以整个句子的结构是“状+主+谓+宾+状+状”,故选B。
49. Over the years,/ the system/ developed into/ different forms,/ as it was a time when people were divided geographically.
A. 状+主+系+表+定从 B. 状+主+系+表+状从 C. 状+主+谓+宾+定从 D. 状+主+谓+宾+状从

50. A group of researchers and scientists/ from China and other countries/ are working/ together/ to help increase knowledge and appreciation of China’s ancient cultural heritage.
A. 主+定+谓+状+状 B. 主+状+谓+状+状 C. 主+定+谓+宾+状 D. 主+状+谓+宾+状
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查基本句型。句意:一群来自中国和其他国家的研究人员和科学家正在共同努力,帮助提高对中国古代文化遗产的了解和欣赏。“A group of researchers and scientists from China and other countries”是主语部分,其中“A group of”是数量短语作定语修饰“researchers and scientists”,“from China and other countries”是介词短语作后置定语修饰“researchers and scientists”,整体表示“来自中国和其他国家的一群研究人员和科学家”,属于“主+定”结构。 “are working”是谓语部分,是现在进行时态。 “together”是副词,作状语,修饰“are working”,表示“一起地”。 “to help increase knowledge and appreciation of China’s ancient cultural heritage”是动词不定式短语作目的状语,说明“are working”的目的。 所以整个句子的结构是“主+定+谓+状+状”,故选A。

在空白处填入1个适当的词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。
51. A committee was established ______ (limit) damage to the Egyptian buildings and prevent the loss of cultural relics. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to limit
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:成立了一个委员会来限制对埃及建筑物的破坏,防止文物损失。本句已有谓语动词was established,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词;结合句意可知,空处需用动词不定式作目的状语,表示“为了限制对埃及建筑物的破坏,防止文物损失”。故填to limit。
52. Nearly 500,000 high-quality digital photographs ______ (produce) since the international project started in 1994. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】have been produced
【解析】
【详解】考查动词语态。句意:自1994年国际项目启动以来,已经制作了近50万张高质量的数码照片。根据时间状语“since the international project started in 1994”可知,句子应使用现在完成时,主语photographs与动词produce“制作”之间是被动关系,用现在完成时的被动语态,主语是复数形式,助动词用have。故填have been produced。
53. There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main ________ (factor) has been the Chinese writing system. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】factors
【解析】
【详解】考查名词的数。句意:之所以能够实现这一点,有诸多原因,但其中最主要的因素便是中国的文字体系。此处为one of+复数名词。故填factors。
54. Written Chinese has also become an important means ______ which China’s present is connected with its past. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】by
【解析】
【详解】考查介词。句意:书面汉语也成为连接中国现在和过去的重要手段。“连接中国现在和过去”是借助书面汉语这个手段,此处是“介词+which”引导的限制性定语从句,先行词“means”表示“手段,方法”,和介词“by”搭配,“by which”表示“借助……手段,通过……方法”。故填by。
55. After listening to the scientists who had studied the problem, ______ citizens who lived near the dam, the government turned to the United Nations for help in 1959. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】and
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意:在听取了研究该问题的科学家以及住在大坝附近的居民的意见后,政府于1959年向联合国寻求帮助。根据句意可知,“the scientists who had studied the problem(研究该问题的科学家)”和“the citizens who lived near the dam(住在大坝附近的居民)”为并列关系,共同作“listening to(听取)”的宾语,所以空处需用并列连词and连接两个并列成分。故填and。
第三节(共2小题;每小题5分,满分10分)
句子翻译:请根据中文提示完成下列句子翻译
56. 尽管历史跌宕起伏,中国因其古老文明一直延续至今而闻名于世。(be widely known; which; despite)(汉译英)
__________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history.
【解析】
【详解】考查介词短语、时态和定语从句。句子陈述事实,用一般现在时;表示“尽管”用despite,引出让步状语,其后接名词短语“中国历史跌宕起伏”,翻译为“the many ups and downs in its history”;表示“中国”用China,表示“因……而广为人知”用固定搭配be widely known for...,be动词用is;表示“古老文明”用ancient civilisation;表示“一直延续至今”表示过去的动作一直持续到现在,时态为现在完成时,用has continued all the way through into modern times,作定语从句修饰先行词ancient civilisation,关系词在从句中作主语,指物,用which引导该从句。调整语序,故翻译为China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history.
57. 专家们调查这个问题,实施多次测试,然后提出了一个保住那些建筑的方案。(A, B and C并列谓语)(汉译英)

Over the past three years, Kang Jian has created more than 400 dough sculptures (面塑) and become a city-level inheritor (传承人) of this intangible cultural heritage in Mohe, Heilongjiang Province.
“When I was a little boy, every time my parents made dumplings, they would give me a small piece of dough,” he said. “I tried to make various animals — a rabbit, a fish, or a snail. The small, simple objects brought me lots of good childhood memories and planted the seeds of fine art, especially sculpture, in my heart.” Kang’s parents were not financially able to support his desire to study fine arts while he was at school. But he didn’t give up. He spent his spare time after school studying drawing by himself.
Then, in December 2018, during a visit to a museum in Beijing, Kang, for the first time, got information about the intangible cultural heritage of dough sculpting, which attracted him greatly. “I was really excited to learn about dough sculpting,” he said. “Then I had the idea of taking my childhood interest up again.” He then spent 20 days learning skills from Bai Chunyu, a provincial-level inheritor of dough sculpting. And in August 2019, he got the chance to learn from another national-level inheritor.
Kang spent nearly all his spare time practicing, hoping to improve quickly. “To learn as much as possible during my 40 days there, I practiced every day from 6 am until late at night,” he said. “When I slept, I had to put my hands in hot water to relieve the pain. But all the efforts turned out to be worth it.”
In April, Kang completed the dough sculptures of 108 characters from the novel Outlaws of the Marsh after 16 months of work. “Most of my dough sculptures are traditional Chinese characters. In my mind, the real value of my dough sculpture as a national intangible cultural heritage lies in its connection with traditional Chinese culture. That’s the charm and significance of the art,” he said.
4. What inspired Kang to have the dream of dough sculpting?
A. His talent for drawing.
B. His admiration for Bai’s skills.
C. His parents’ encouragement and support.
D. His childhood experiences with dough.
5. What did Kang do to learn dough sculpting?
A. He sought guidance from masters.
B. He paid frequent visits to museums.
C. He got formal training at an art school.
D. He sought help from many sculpting lovers.
6. What does Kang probably think of his learning of dough sculpting?
A. Tiring but rewarding. B. Costly and stressful.
C. Fruitful and smooth. D. Boring but productive.
7. Why does Kang like making dough sculptures of Chinese characters?
A. To get more recognition.
B. To attract more enthusiasts.
C. To better express Chinese culture.
D. To improve skills with familiar characters.
C
Knowing how to read, write and talk in one language is enough for many people. They prefer to focus their energy on other things that improve their lives. Scientists, however, continue to confirm that bilingualism, the ability to speak two languages fluently, has more benefits than many realize.
First, it’s good for a child’s brain. Learning a second language improves their academic achievements. Many studies have shown that children who learn a foreign language get better grades at school. Bilingual children also display a better facility in their native language. Their grammar, vocabulary and spelling skills are stronger than those of single-language speakers. Children who learn a second language become expert problem-solvers and creative thinkers. That’s because their brains are constantly working to sort out which language to speak and when. Studies further show that bilingual teens are better at multitasking.
Multilingual parents understand the benefits of learning more than one language. Ben Mazor of Montreal speaks English, French and Hebrew. He says, “Kids’ brains are like a sponge (海绵). They absorb everything. It comes to them so easily while they’re young. So why not give them the chance to learn another language?”
A number of studies show that bilingualism is valuable to the brain later in life. Scottish researchers did a study using data from 835 native English speakers, who took an IQ test at the age of 11. They were tested again in their 70s. Researchers then compared the tests. Those who spoke two or more languages had obviously better cognitive (认知的) abilities. Dr. Thomas Baka, co-author of the study, concluded, “Our results suggest a protective effect of bilingualism against age-related cognitive decline.”
So,who would refuse the benefits of learning a second language?
8. What does the underlined word “facility” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Ability. B. Interest. C. Taste. D. Method.
9. According to paragraph 3, what may parents like Ben Mazor do?
A. Learn foreign languages by themselves.
B. Spend more money on home schooling.
C. Involve kids in foreign language courses.
D. Help kids absorb knowledge like a sponge.
10. What has the Scottish researchers proved about bilingualism?
A. It extends one’s life. B. It improves test scores.
C. It cures brain disorders. D. It slows mental ageing.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Learning Betters Human Brain
B. Bilingualism Shows Great Advantages
C. Language Opens a New World to Kids
D. Bilingualism Leads to Academic Success

Bat habitats (栖息地) are damaged by human activities despite their contribution to our environment. To ensure that we can study and improve the health of our bat population, we need to locate their habitats. But finding their habitats seems like a tall order. They are small and fast and primarily fly at night.
Our new research combines our previous mathematical model of bat movement with data gathered from sound recorders known as “bat detectors”. They are placed around the environment and left there for several nights.
Bats are able to “see with sound” when they’re flying. If the sounds are made within 10 to 15 meters of a bat detector, the device is started to make a recording, providing a proper record of where and when a bat is present. The sound recordings also provide information about the species of bat. Greater horseshoe bats make a very unique call at exactly 82 kHz, so we can easily tell whether the species is present or not.
Our model can also be used to predict the frequency (预测频率) of bat calls based on a given habitat location. So, we divided the environment into grids (网格). The squares whose recorders best collect the bat data will then be the most likely locations of the habitats. This simple method can be applied to whole landforms.
Cutting out the regions that are least likely to have the habitats can mean we reduce the search space to less than 1% of the firstly surveyed area, simplifying the process of finding bat habitats frees researchers to focus on safeguarding these areas, rather than struggling to find them.
In 2022, we developed an app that uses publicly sourced data to predict bat flight lines. At the moment, the app can help researchers, developers or local authority planners know how the environment is used by bats. However, it needs the habitat location to be provided first, and this information is not always known. Our new research removes this difficulty, making the app easier to use.

14. What effect does the grid-based method in the new model primarily achieve?
A. It helps count bats in different areas. B. It controls the sound frequency of bat calls.
C. It reduces the influence of human activities. D. It enables proper judgment of possible habitats.
15. What limitation of the 2022 app does the new research deal with?
