NEST-WATCHING:The Hidden World of Birds'Homes
Ever wondered what that bunch of small sticks is in your tree?Birds build nests to lay eggs
and raise their young.Because birds vary greatly in size and habitat,their nests also come in
many forms.Here are several types you may notice in your neighborhood this spring.
Cup Nests
The most common type.They are shaped like small cups and safely hold newborn birds.
Look for small,round structures between tree branches made of small sticks woven together.
Common birds are robins and sparrows.
Burrow and Cavity Nests
These nests can be found in ground holes,cliffs,or tree trunks.They provide warmth and
protection.Some birds dig their own nests,while others use natural holes already formed in trees
or rocks.
Platform Nests
Large structures high in trees.Platform nests,favored by storks and eagles for 360-degree
views of their surroundings,enable these birds to notice danger earlier.They can often be reused
for years.
Ground Nests
Ground nests are built by birds with limited flight ability.Look for tall sides or grassy areas
that help hide the nest.These birds make their nests directly on the ground to keep eggs and
young birds out of sight

An internationally praised cultural thing has introduced the attractive tale of Sun Wukong to
audiences worldwide.But for Ghaffar Pourazar,a British-American dual citizen living in
California,this legendary figure has been a part of his identity for decades.
Pourazar's lifelong passion for Peking Opera began by chance.In 1993,Pourazar attended a
performance at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall and was instantly captured.He went backstage
right after the show and made friends with the Chinese performers.With their help,Pourazar was
enrolled at an opera school.Just three months later,he left his life in Britain behind and moved to
Beijing to train in the martial roles of the art.
Starting as an adult was not easy,as Peking Opera is a complex mixture of vocal
performance,mime,martial arts,dance and acrobatics.In addition to the physical demands,
mastering the Chinese language posed another problem."I was constantly reciting the subtitles
and songs,whether I was eating,bathing,walking,or even dreaming,"Pourazar said.
Pourazar believes that great art transcends()languages.Over the years,he has devoted
himself to introducing Peking Opera and Sun Wukong to international audiences.He has also
been teaching courses and organizing workshops in the United-States,bringing Peking Opera to
curious Western learners.To better connect with Western audiences and learners,he adapted
some classic plays such as The Monkey King:Uproar in Heaven into English versions and he
also adapted Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream into Peking Opera.
In recognition of his contributions,Pourazar received the Great Wall Friendship Award from
the Beijing government in20l4.“Cultural exchange should be reciprocal(互惠的).I aim to
blend my expertise in opera with my multicultural background to create enriching artistic
experiences for the audiences,"said Pourazar.
24.What is the author's intention of writing paragraph 1?
A.To prove Ghaffar Pourazar's achievement.
B.To introduce a cultural influence on an individual.
C.To explain the cultural significance of Sun Wukong.
D.To highlight the fascination of ancient Chinese tales.
25.What do we know about Pourazar's experience of learning Peking Opera?
A.Language was a significant barrier for him.
B.The performers he met backstage taught him the art.
C.Queen Elizabeth made him interested in Peking Opera.
D.His enthusiasm for Peking Opera started at an early age.
26.Why did Pourazar adapt Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream into Peking Opera?
A To show off his talent in adapting different plays.
B.To add more complexity to traditional opera forms.
C.To prove that Peking Opera is superior to other art forms.
D.To make Peking Opera more accessible to Western audiences.
27.Which of the following words best describe Pourazar?
A.Independent and confident.
B.Passionate and dedicated.
C.Curious and traditional.
D.Brave and humorous.

Poet and Harvard Professor Henry Wadsworth Longfellow famously said,"Music is the
universal language of mankind."A new Harvard study suggests he may have been right.
The study conducted by a research team found that people around the world could identify
lullabies(摇篮曲),dance songs,.and comforting songs一regardless of the songs'cultural origin
-after hearing just a 14-second clip ()The finding suggests that not only is music deeply
rooted in human nature,but that some types of songs break cultural boundaries.
The findings are based on a wide-reaching experiment in which 750 online participants in 60
countries listened to brief clips of songs collected from nearly 90 small societies around the
world,including hunter-gatherers and some special farmers.Participants then answered six
questions,rating each clip according to whether they believed the song was used for dancing,
calming a baby,treating illness,or expressing love.Two additional uses -mourning (the
dead and telling a story-were included as controls.
The data showed that despite participants'unfamiliarity with the cultures,the random
sampling of each song,and the short duration of the samples,people were able to reliably infer
the songs'functions,and that their ratings were consistent across the world.
The findings ran counter to expert expectations.The team had also asked professionals,
including performers,composers,psychologists,and scientists about whether they believed
people would be able to identify the song types.Their answer was no.And not only that,but they
predicted that people's responses will be inconsistent with one another."That's not what we
found,"the researchers said.
The researchers also wanted to know whether listeners were recognizing certain non-musical
characteristics of the songs.To test that,the team conducted a second study.This time,they
asked listeners about a number of contextual and musical features,ranging from the gender of
the singers to the rhythm of the song.
When data from the two studies were combined,the results showed that songs of the same
function shared similar characteristics-lullabies,for example,tended to be slower and simpler
than dance music-suggesting that something about musical characteristics crosses cultural
boundaries.
28 What did the participants do in the first study?
A.They distinguished functions of the songs.
B.They identified the cultural origins of the songs.
C.They recognized the non-musical characteristics of the songs.
D.They sorted the songs according to the gender of the singers.
29.What does the underlined part"ran counter to"in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Were equal to.
B.Were similar to.
C.Were superior to.
D.Were opposite to.
30.Why did the researchers carry out the second study?
A.To test the musical knowledge of a wider audience
B.To collect more diverse songs from various cultures.
C.To confirm the surprising results from the first one.
D.To explore the underlying reasons behind the findings.
31.What can we learn from the two studies?
A.Listeners recognize music by its rhythm.
B.Something about music might be universal.
C.Dance music is usually slower and simpler.
D.Cultural similarities lead to similar musical features.

Animals and plants also live and thrive on public squares.This-creates opportunities for
greater biodiversity and well-being for the human population.Researchers at the Technical
University of Munich(TUM)have studied at 103 locations in Munich how various factors affeet
flora and fauna )They advocate a close examination of local conditions and a more
nature-focused approach to the design of public spaces.
Together with.his team,Wolfgang Weisser,Professor of Terrestrial Ecology at TUM,looked
at such factors as size,the occurrence of lawn,plant and tree growth,artificial light sources and
green in the surroundings of the 103 public squares.in Munich.The squares varied from almost
entirely sealed(封闭的)to park-like squares.
Their results show,with Munich as an example,how greatly the different spaces can differ in
the animals and other organisms that can live there.At the heavily sealed Marienplatz,the
researchers counted only 20 species,with just one bird and moss species as well as insects and
bat species.Meanwhile,at Pfrontener Platz,a space with lawns,bushes and trees,they found 156
taxa,including 21 different kinds of birds.At Johannisplatz,118 species are present,as it has
trees,hedges and some grassy areas despite being sealed to a relatively large extent.
Unsurprisingly,more plants are beneficial to many animal species.This is a factor that urban
planning models already take into account.However,the study also shows that lawns,trees and
bushes vary widely in terms of the diversity and numbers of the species they attract.So far,
public spaces are designed with humans in mind,with little consideration to animals and other
species.
The researchers.concluded that the chances for greater biodiversity are increased if,instead
of applying the same patterns to every location,planners take into account the local conditions
and the needs-of different species.To encourage more bee species,for example,they should not
only plant nectar-bearing flowers,but also provide open space as habitat for bees and a source of
nest-building material.
32.What does the study at TUM focus on?
A.The best locations for flora and fauna.
B.Factors to be considered in square design.
C.The impact of local conditions on biodiversity.
D.The best way for humans and flora and fauna to get along.
33.What can we know from paragraph 3?
A.Animals expand in sealed parks
B.Open parks support more biodiversity.
C.Open parks are not fit for birds to stay.
D.Closed parks are as good as open ones.
34.What does the study say about urban greenery?
A.It varies in attracting species.
B.It will replace artificial lights.
C.It has nothing to do with species
D.It is well planned in urban buildings.
35.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Enhancing Urban Development:Considering Local Species'Needs
B.Human-animal Coexistence:Integrating Nature into City Designing
C.Urban Ecosystems:Challenges for Plants and Animals in Urban Spaces
D.Biodiversity in the City:Designing Urban Spaces for Humans and Animals

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
"What do you think I should do?"asks your friend,as she sits beside you,waiting for your
advice.This is no easy situation.Say something your friend disagrees with or something helpless,
and you might feel you've disappointed her.
It's human nature to want to offer solutions when someone comes to you with a problem.It's
also easy to fall into the trap of simply saying that "Everything will be OK".36
But we
often say that because we believe we need to say something.This is because we're glad that our
friend has come to us for help,even if we don't really think we're able to give it.37
The
answer is yes...if it's done in the right way.
In fact,friends often really only want someone to listen to them.It's important to try to work
out whether they're actually asking for advice,or simply wanting to talk over whateyer is going
round in their head.38
There's no.harm in asking whether they'd like you to give
suggestions.
It's also important to be.honest.If you're unable to think of a way to.solve your friends'
problem,just say so.Your friends won't feel upset,and you can still listen carefully and try to put
yourself in their shoes.39You can ask yourself"What would I do if I were to experience
the same thing?"Later you can go back to your friends with a few helpful suggestions.
40can be hard to listen to your friends going over and over the same thing without
being able to help them.They will certainly be thankful if you just allow them to "talk it out",
though.Maybe they're building up courage to take action,and need to convince (
themselves they're doing the right thing.Just being there for them may be all you have to do to
make things better.
A.Friendship is the most important to us
B.This is not actually useful for your friend.
C.So is it a good idea to try to give advice at all?
D.You can find someone else to ask for their ideas.
E.Sometimes a problem doesn't go away overnight.
F.Talking may make:people feel better all by themselves.
G.Then you can go away and try to think of something helpful.

Li Yue was a hardworking but quite shy student.She loved English and had always been at
the top of her class in written exams,but speaking in front of others was her greatest fear.This
year,to her own surprise,she had made it to the final of the school's English speech competition.
The topic was "The Power of Friendship",which made her think immediately of Wang Lei.Li
Yue had spent weeks preparing,writing,and rewriting her speech with the help of her best friend,
Wang Lei.Wang Lei had always been her biggest supporter,encouraging her to step out of her
comfort zone.He had practiced with her for countless hours,patiently listening and giving
suggestions.Whenever Li Yue felt nervous or looked unsure,he would smile and say,"Believe
in yourself-you're fully prepared",a sentence that rang loud in her heart like a steady
drumbeat.
Standing backstage,Li Yue's heart was beating quickly and loudly.She could feel her hands
.getting sweaty.She looked through the curtain secretly and saw the audience,a sea of faces that
seemed to go on forever.Then she saw her main competitor,Sun Qian,walking off the stage with
a confident smile,and receiving loud applause ()The sound felt like a wave of pressure
crashing over her.Suddenly,Li Yue's confidence disappeared.Her hands started to shake
uncontrollably,and the words of her carefully prepared speech seemed to disappear from her
mind,leaving behind a terrifying blank."What if I forget everything?What if they laugh at me?
What if I disappoint Wang Lei after all his help?"she thought,fear rising inside her.She took a
deep breath,but it did little to calm her nerves.Just then,the host's voice rang through the
speakers,"And now,let's welcome our next contestant,Li Yue!"
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Li Yue slowly walked onto the stage.
Taking a deep breath,Li Yue calmed down quickly and began her speech.
