I’m Wisdom, the world’s oldest wild bird. Though I am 74 years old, I’m still laying (下蛋) eggs On 26 November, 2024, I returned to my favourite home on Midway Atoll and laid one more egg. Midway Atoll is an island in the big Pacific Ocean. Every year, about 1.3 million of Laysan albatrosses (黑背信天翁) like me come together here. We spend most of our lives flying over the ocean, but we always come back here to raise our baby birds. Back in 1956, scientists put a little band on my leg with the number Z333 to study me more easily. They guessed I was 5 years old at the time, the youngest age we can lay eggs. They follow me all the time. Most Laysan albatrosses live 12 to 40 years, so I am like a bird superstar. My leg band was changed six times because I lived longer than people thought I would! Albatrosses usually choose one partner (伴侣) for life, but I lived longer than many of my partners. For years, I stayed with Akeakamai, but he went away some time ago. In 2024, I found a new partner, and on 26 November, we laid an egg together. My partner and I are taking turns sitting on the egg, keeping it warm. If it breaks open and a baby bird comes out in February, we will spend about seven months feeding and protecting the baby bird until it is ready to fly. It is a lot of work, but I did it many times before—scientists say I laid 50 to 60 eggs in my lifetime, and I had 30 to 36 baby birds. My last baby bird was born in 2021 when I was 70 years old. Oh, a fun fact: in 2017, scientists saw one of my grown children building a home nearby. I may be a mum, grandma, and even great-grandma by now. At 74 years old, I am still flying strong, raising baby birds, and showing to everyone that age is just a number. Let’s see if this egg can work well—I might have a new baby bird to add to my bird family! 56 Who is introducing this article to us? A. A scientist studying birds. B. Wisdom, the bird itself. C. A writer visiting Midway Atoll. D. A photographer taking bird pictures. 57. How old was Wisdom when the scientists study her the first time? A. When she was five years old. B. When she was twelve years old. C. When she was forty years old. D. When she was seventy-four years old. 58. What is the correct order of these events in the story? ①Wisdom found a new partner. ②Wisdom’s last baby bird was born. ③Scientists put a band on Wisdom’s leg. ④Scientists saw Wisdom’s grown child building a home nearby. A. ③④②① B. ③④①② C. ④③②① D. ④③①② 59. What can we know about Wisdom? A. Wisdom only lays one egg every year. B. Wisdom never returns to the same home. C. Wisdom’s leg band is very new and shiny. D. Wisdom has more than one partner for life. 60. What is the best title for this passage? A. Life on Midway Atoll B. My Bird Family C. All about Me: The Oldest Wild Bird D. How Birds Lay Eggs 【答案】56. B 57. A 58. A 59. D 60. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是世界上年龄最大的野鸟Wisdom的自述，介绍了其长寿的一生。 【56题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I’m Wisdom, the world’s oldest wild bird.”可知，文章的作者是一只名叫Wisdom的鸟。故选B。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Back in 1956…They guessed I was 5 years old at the time”可知，科学家们第一次对Wisdom进行研究时，它那时五岁。故选A。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Back in 1956, scientists put a little band on my leg with the number Z333 to study me more easily.”可知，1956年，科学家们在Wisdom的脚上放置了一个带着数字Z333的小绑带，即③排第一；又根据倒数第二段“Oh, a fun fact: in 2017, scientists saw one of my grown children building a home nearby.”可知，2017年，科学家们看到Wisdom其中一个已经长大的孩子在附近筑巢，即④排第二；再根据“My last baby bird was born in 2021 when I was 70 years old.”可知，2021年，Wisdom生下了最后一个孩子，即②排第三；最后根据“In 2024, I found a new partner, and on 26 November, we laid an egg together.”可知，2024年，Wisdom找到了一个新伴侣，即①排第四，则选项A“③④②①”与之匹配。故选A。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Albatrosses usually choose one partner for life…I stayed with Akeakamai, but he went away some time ago. In 2024, I found a new partner…”可知，Wisdom在2024年又重新找了一个伴侣，则选项D“Wisdom拥有不止一个伴侣”表述正确。故选D。 【60题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“I’m Wisdom, the world’s oldest wild bird.”以及通读全文可知，本文是世界上年龄最大的野鸟Wisdom的自述，选项C“关于我的一切：年龄最大的野鸟”作为标题最为合适。故选C。 C 配对阅读。 左栏是五个人的旅游需求，右栏是七个旅游地点的介绍。请为每个人选择合适的旅游地点，并将其字母编号填写在题号前的括号内。选项中有两项为多余项。 ___61___ Li Hong is tired of the hot summer days in Guangzhou.

When I arrived in London, I felt nervous about the seven-hour time difference, the new language, the buildings and the people at the train station. Everything was so different. It made me worried about my short stay there. I joined a girls’ middle school and learned many new things there over the course of five days. I felt lonely and helpless at first because my vocabulary (词汇) was poor. Although my learning partner was really friendly, I just couldn’t relax. This feeling continued until a PE class changed everything. Some girls smiled and invited me to join their baseball game. Even though I had never played baseball before, I decided to give it a try and managed to hit the ball on my first try. At that moment, time seemed to stop, and then cheers broke out all around me. The other girls hugged me and shouted, “Hey, Eileen, you did an amazing job!” From then on, I felt truly happy and relaxed, and I really began to fit in with others. That experience helped me see the bridge between London and my hometown, Tianjin—a bridge built with care and love. We may not come from the same country or have the same skin colour, but love brings us all together. This lesson continues to hold great importance in my life. 76.

Though I am 74 years old, I’m still laying (下蛋) eggs On 26 November, 2024, I returned to my favourite home on Midway Atoll and laid one more egg. Midway Atoll is an island in the big Pacific Ocean. Every year, about 1.3 million of Laysan albatrosses (黑背信天翁) like me come together here. We spend most of our lives flying over the ocean, but we always come back here to raise our baby birds. Back in 1956, scientists put a little band on my leg with the number Z333 to study me more easily. They guessed I was 5 years old at the time, the youngest age we can lay eggs. They follow me all the time. Most Laysan albatrosses live 12 to 40 years, so I am like a bird superstar. My leg band was changed six times because I lived longer than people thought I would! Albatrosses usually choose one partner (伴侣) for life, but I lived longer than many of my partners. For years, I stayed with Akeakamai, but he went away some time ago. In 2024, I found a new partner, and on 26 November, we laid an egg together. My partner and I are taking turns sitting on the egg, keeping it warm. If it breaks open and a baby bird comes out in February, we will spend about seven months feeding and protecting the baby bird until it is ready to fly. It is a lot of work, but I did it many times before—scientists say I laid 50 to 60 eggs in my lifetime, and I had 30 to 36 baby birds. My last baby bird was born in 2021 when I was 70 years old. Oh a fun fact: in 2017, scientists saw one of my grown children building a home nearby. I may be a mum, grandma, and even great-grandma by now. At 74 years old, I am still flying strong, raising baby birds, and showing to everyone that age is just a number. Let’s see if this egg can work well—I might have a new baby bird to add to my bird family! 56. Who is introducing this article to us? A. A scientist studying birds. B. Wisdom, the bird itself. C. A writer visiting Midway Atoll. D. A photographer taking bird pictures. 57. How old was Wisdom when the scientists study her the first time? A. When she was five years old. B. When she was twelve years old. C. When she was forty years old. D. When she was seventy-four years old. 58. What is the correct order of these events in the story? ①Wisdom found a new partner. ②Wisdom’s last baby bird was born. ③Scientists put a band on Wisdom’s leg. ④Scientists saw Wisdom’s grown child building a home nearby. A. ③④②① B. ③④①② C. ④③②① D. ④③①② 59. What can we know about Wisdom? A. Wisdom only lays one egg every year. B. Wisdom never returns to the same home. C. Wisdom’s leg band is very new and shiny. D. Wisdom has more than one partner for life. 60. What is the best title for this passage? A. Life on Midway Atoll B. My Bird Family C. All about Me: The Oldest Wild Bird D.

When I arrived in London, I felt nervous about the seven-hour time difference, the new language, the buildings and the people at the train station. Everything was so different. It made me worried about my short stay there. I joined a girls’ middle school and learned many new things there over the course of five days. I felt lonely and helpless at first because my vocabulary (词汇) was poor. Although my learning partner was really friendly, I just couldn’t relax. This feeling continued until a PE class changed everything. Some girls smiled and invited me to join their baseball game. Even though I had never played baseball before, I decided to give it a try and managed to hit the ball on my first try. At that moment, time seemed to stop, and then cheers broke out all around me. The other girls hugged me and shouted, “Hey, Eileen, you did an amazing job!” From then on, I felt truly happy and relaxed, and I really began to fit in with others. That experience helped me see the bridge between London and my hometown, Tianjin—a bridge built with care and love. We may not come from the same country or have the same skin colour, but love brings us all together. This lesson continues to hold great importance in my life. 76.
