Qi graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC)in 2005 with a degree in automation ()During his studies,he won several top awards.In 2007,he was one of ten students lucky enough to be invited to Bill Gates'home in Seattle.There,he saw amazing AI-powered smart home technology.It lighted up his love for AI. After graduation,Qi held different important positions.He worked at IBM's research center.Then, he became the director of the Machine Perception and Learning (MAPLE)Lab at the University of Central Florida.In 2018,he joined Huawei Research USA.He also founded Oppo's research center in Seattle. Now,Qi has joined Westlake University in Hangzhou.As the leader of the MAPLE Lab,he guides a team of 20 researchers.They focus on AI and deep learning to create pictures,videos,and virtual environments.Qi said the free and creative environment at Westlake University was what brought him back to run for his long-term dreams. The MAPLE Lab continues to do research on AI.Westlake University,China's first private non-profit(非营利性的)research university,plays a huge part in developing top talent.. 21.When did Qi start his great interest in AI? A.m2005. B.In2007. C.In2015. 22.Which of the following shows the correct order of Qi's working experiences? 1the MAPLE Lab in Central Florida 2Westlake University in Hangzhou ③Huawei Research USA④Bv's research center A.①→②-→④③ B.①→③→④→② C.④-→①→③→② 23.What's the best title for the passage? A.AI Scientist Qi's Homecoming B.Showing Top Talent in USTC C.Qi's Travel Experiences in the USA B Have you ever had such an experience?You did some exercise the day before,and the next morning, even a small movement like sitting up in bed would cause muscle soreness.Now you want to exercise again,but you're wondering:Can I still exercise when I'm so sore?Well,there is no exact answer;it depends. Experts explain that soreness isn't always bad.It's normal to feel sore when you train hard or challenge your muscles in new ways.It is known as Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness(DOMS,延迟性肌肉 )It usually reaches the peak (within 48 hours and goes away in 72 hours.It happens because hard or new exercises break down muscle tissue ()Then your body tries to repair it,which causes soreness.Don't worry-this breakdown heips your muscles grow stronger during the repair process. What you should pay attention to is just how sore you feel.Rick Richey,a sports medicine teacher, says,"If your soreness is not serious,it's okay to exercise.You just need to go easier,like lifting lighter weights or running slower." ,y… However,if your soreness is more than a mild ache,take a break."Your body is smart-it tells you to stop,"Richey says.What's more,exercising with super-sore muscles isn't helpful.Sore muscles are not able to produce as much force and usually get tired more quickly.Richey says serious soreness can prevent you from getting better,and it might even make you hurt yourself. If you really want to exercise,work on the muscles that don't ache.For example,if your arms ache, exercise your legs."If you're sore in one muscle,look for other parts of your body you can exercise," Richey says. 24.Which graph can show the change about DOMS in 72 hours? B 25.Why is it not helpful to exercise with super-sore muscles? A.Because they may never recover. B.Because they will get tired faster. C.Because they can produce more force. 26.If your legs ache,what should you do according to Richey? A.Stop all exercise. B.Take medicine right away. C.Exercise your arms. 27.What is the purpose of the passage? A.To explain what causes DOMS. B.To discuss whether to exercise with sore muscles. C.To tell readers how to repair sore muscles quickly. C ①The ocean is home to masses of smali floating living things called zooplankton(浮游动物.Some are as tiny as 0.04 inches long,and they spend most of their lives asleep,deep in the ocean.New research has shone a light on how these little creatures are important for helping to protect the planet against global warming. The research,led by scientists from China,the UK and Canada,focused on the Southern Ocean (also known as the Antarctic Ocean).The Southern Ocean is about one sixteenth of Earth's total ocean area. The team studied types of zooplankton called copepods,krill,and salps.All of these creatures eat tiny plant-like living things called phytoplankton,which live near the sea's surface and absorb() carbon dioxide (CO2),a greenhouse gas.Greenhouse gases trap the Sun's heat in the atmosphere, contributing to climate change.In winter,the zooplankton sink about 1,600 feet below the surface of the ocean.There they slowly breathe out the carbon dioxide from the phytoplankton they have eaten,releasing (it into the water.This process is called the"seasonal migrant pump".Each year,it transports more than 70 million tons of carbon to areas far below the ocean's surface.Because the zooplankton are so deep down,the gas they release takes many years,sometimes even centuries,to rise to the surface and enter Earth's atmosphere. Angus Atkinson who worked on the study,told BBC News that without the seasonal migrant pump,the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would be double what they are now. 5Guang Yang,another researcher,said zooplankton are "unsung heroes"of carbon storage.The team hopes the study will encourage scientists to include zooplankton in their calculations of how much carbon is stored around the world.It also highlights the importance of protecting the Southern Ocean, where krill are in danger because,of fishing.Environmental activists say people should be careful not to damage krill populations,which are not only a food source for whales,seals,penguins,and seabirds but also help fight climate change. 28.What does"shone a light on"probably mean in the passage? A.wondered B.shown C.imagined 29.Why is the carbon released by zooplankton slow to enter the atmosphere? A.It's taken in by sea animals quickly. B.It stays deep in the ocean for a long time. C.It is used by phytoplankton again. 30.Which of the following describes the structure of the passage? ① T ①0 A.②③ B. ②③.④ C.③ ④0 31.What might the writer talk about in the next paragraph? A.The reasons for protecting whales,seals and seabirds. B.The purpose of fishing for the seals and zooplankton. C.The ways of protecting the small zoopiankton in the Southern Ocean. 第二节（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余 选项。 Friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends.But there are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town,or changed our schools or jobs.

Today,the heavenly horse is more than a zodiac sign.It stands for the perseverance to overcome challenges,much like riders taming wild horses.This idea is passed down through art,poems,and festivals, reminding us that with hard work and unity,we can achieve great things,just like the legendary horse riding through clouds. 56.What did the heavenly horse stand for in ancient Chinese myths? 57.Why is the dragon boat's movement compared to a horse in the passag? 58.What does the heavenly horse symbolize in modern times according to the author? 59.How can we show the"spirit of the horse"in our daily lives? 60将划线部分的句子翻译成英文。 第二节书面表达（满分15分） 61.成长是每个人必经的过程。它可能来自一次成功的喜悦，也可能源于一次失败的反思。某英文 网站正在举办以“My Growth Story”为主题的征文活动。请你从以下两个角度中任选其一，写一篇英 语短文投稿。 Through Success,I Grow Through Failure,I Grow VShare'a successful experience(a VTalk about a failure(a mistake,an competition,volunteer service...); argument..…方 VFeelings and lessons.
