Last autumn, I volunteered at a remote forest reserve, hoping to escape the busy city life and reconnect with nature. I didn’t expect a brief encounter with a little fox to change my view of the wild world forever.
On a cold misty morning, I was patrolling the woodland trail when I caught sight of a small red fox. It was sitting quietly beside an old pine tree, staring at me with bright round eyes. Instead of running away immediately as most wild animals did, it tilted its head curiously, as if studying a stranger. I froze, holding my breath, afraid that any small movement would scare it off.
Slowly, I lowered my body and kept still. Minutes passed gently. To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me. Its fur shone softly in the weak sunlight filtering through the leaves. I could even notice the tiny white spots on its tail. It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear. At that moment, all my worries and tiredness melted into the quietness of the forest.
Before long, a soft call came from the distant bushes. The fox turned its head, then glanced back at me once more. It waved its tail lightly and ran off into the woods, disappearing among the fallen leaves. I stood there for a long time, filled with warmth and amazement.
Nature is not merely a landscape we admire from afar. It is a world full of gentle lives. That short meeting taught me that respect and silence are the best bridges between humans and wild creatures. We live together on the same earth, and peaceful coexistence is the most precious gift we can share.
24. Why did the author go to the forest reserve?
A. To research wild animals.
B. To get away from urban pressure.
C. To learn to survive in the wild.
D. To take photos of natural scenery.

B. It hid behind a pine tree bravely.
C. It showed little fear of humans.
D. It ran away at once when seeing him.

A. The quiet beauty of the woodland.
B. The fox’s gentle and close interaction.

D. The sound from the distant bushes.

A. Wild animals are actually easy to get close to.
B. Forests provide people with spiritual relaxation.
C. We should respect and live in peace with nature.
D. Volunteering can bring people unexpected fun.

Scientists have long known that some dogs can learn the names of lots of toys. Now, a recent study shows that these dogs can even learn the names of new toys just by listening in while people talk about the toys — a skill that young children have, but most dogs do not.
Most dogs can be trained to follow simple commands like “come” or “sit”. But learning the names of things, called “label learning”, is harder. Most dogs struggle with it. Over the past 20 years, however, scientists have found a few dogs that can do it. These dogs can remember the names of many toys, sometimes even hundreds of them. They call these dogs “gifted word learners”. These dogs typically learn during play or training sessions with their owners, but some owners noticed their dogs responding to toy names overheard in daily conversations.
To test if these dogs can learn new words from overheard talk, Dr. Shany Dror and her team worked with 10 gifted word learners, mostly Border Collies. First, the scientists had owners teach the dogs two new toy names in the usual way — by talking directly to the dogs about the toy. Usually, it took the dogs about eight minutes spread over a few days to learn the names of the toys. When asked, the dogs could then fetch the correct toy from a pile of 11 with 80% accuracy.
In the second test, the scientists asked the dogs’ owners to talk about two other new toys with family members, repeating the toy names (e. g., “This is your armadillo”) without looking at or addressing the dogs. Days later, when asked to fetch these new toys, the dogs succeeded 100% of the time. In contrast, 10 non-gifted Border Collies failed to learn from the conversations.
This ability to learn by overhearing is similar to that of 18-month-old children. Researchers are still unsure why some dogs have this skill, as gifted word learners are extremely rare. Dr. Dror notes, “We’re always searching for more dogs to study.”
28. What is the typical way for “gifted word learners” to learn toy names?
A. Overhearing family conversations.
B. Watching children learn new words.
C. Fetching toys from a pile of objects.
D. Doing interactive activities with owners.
29. What do we know about the first test in the study?
A. It used overheard talk.
B. It achieved perfect accuracy.
C. It involved direct teaching.
D. It took eight minutes at a time.
30. What is Dr. Dror’s attitude towards finding more gifted word learners?
A. Cautious. B. Positive. C. Dismissive. D. Indifferent.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Train Your Dog to Learn Words by Heart
B. Border Collies: The Smartest Dog Species?
C. Brainy Dogs Learn Words by Listening In
D. Gifted and Normal Dogs: Are There Differences?
D
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons — for example, economic reasons — why they should be preserved. So, let us assume (假设) that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not affect its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.
32. What does the author say about historical buildings in Paragraph 1?
A. Some of them are not attractive.
B. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings.
D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
33. Which of the following is true according to the author?
A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B. In no way should buildings affect the surroundings.
C. Some old buildings have ruined the area they are in.
D. Nobody knows why people speak against new buildings.
34. By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means ________.
A. destroy old buildings B. put things in a different place
C. choose new architectural styles D. respect people’s feelings for historical buildings
35. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To explain why people dislike change.
B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
D. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One lovely weekend, my husband Max took me and our two-year-old daughter Ila for a picnic in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Also accompanying us was our ten-month-old Labrador (拉布拉多犬) D’Argo. He was a dog I picked up on a rainy night. Over the years, he had changed from a shy, frightened puppy into a gentle and loyal companion.
After our picnic, I safely fastened Ila into her car seat and waved D’Argo inside. But as I closed the door with a soft click, panic shot through me — D’Argo had accidentally stepped on the remote (遥控器), locking them both inside. Max hurried over, his face turning pale. “Where’s the key?” he asked anxiously. I pointed to the driver’s seat, where the only key, attached to the remote door lock control, was lying along with my purse.
April afternoons are warm, and the temperature inside a parked car rises quickly. In just a few minutes, Ila’s cheeks turned pink and sweaty. Her little hands held the seat belt tightly. D’Argo jumped restlessly from the front seat to the back, barking loudly as if he had been begging for help. “Let’s break it open!” Max said, prying (撬动) at the lock with a thick branch, but the door stayed shut. “It’s no use,” I whispered, heart sinking. “Call 911!”
Fifteen minutes later, the police car finally arrived. The officer tried to open the lock with a metal tool but failed. Soon, two more officers arrived, but they couldn’t unlock the door either.
Ila’s face was flushed and shiny. Drops of sweat rolled down her cheeks, and she started crying for me. I hit the window helplessly. Seeing this, D’Argo jumped to her side at once, rubbing his head against her small hand gently and licking her tears to make her feel better.
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。
The officers finally suggested breaking the front driver’s window to get them out.

Last autumn, I volunteered at a remote forest reserve, hoping to escape the busy city life and reconnect with nature. I didn’t expect a brief encounter with a little fox to change my view of the wild world forever.
On a cold misty morning, I was patrolling the woodland trail when I caught sight of a small red fox. It was sitting quietly beside an old pine tree, staring at me with bright round eyes. Instead of running away immediately as most wild animals did, it tilted its head curiously, as if studying a stranger. I froze, holding my breath, afraid that any small movement would scare it off.
Slowly, I lowered my body and kept still. Minutes passed gently. To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me. Its fur shone softly in the weak sunlight filtering through the leaves. I could even notice the tiny white spots on its tail. It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear. At that moment, all my worries and tiredness melted into the quietness of the forest.
Before long, a soft call came from the distant bushes. The fox turned its head, then glanced back at me once more. It waved its tail lightly and ran off into the woods, disappearing among the fallen leaves. I stood there for a long time, filled with warmth and amazement.
Nature is not merely a landscape we admire from afar. It is a world full of gentle lives. That short meeting taught me that respect and silence are the best bridges between humans and wild creatures. We live together on the same earth, and peaceful coexistence is the most precious gift we can share.

Scientists have long known that some dogs can learn the names of lots of toys. Now, a recent study shows that these dogs can even learn the names of new toys just by listening in while people talk about the toys — a skill that young children have, but most dogs do not.
Most dogs can be trained to follow simple commands like “come” or “sit”. But learning the names of things, called “label learning”, is harder. Most dogs struggle with it. Over the past 20 years, however, scientists have found a few dogs that can do it. These dogs can remember the names of many toys, sometimes even hundreds of them. They call these dogs “gifted word learners”. These dogs typically learn during play or training sessions with their owners, but some owners noticed their dogs responding to toy names overheard in daily conversations.
To test if these dogs can learn new words from overheard talk, Dr. Shany Dror and her team worked with 10 gifted word learners, mostly Border Collies. First, the scientists had owners teach the dogs two new toy names in the usual way — by talking directly to the dogs about the toy. Usually, it took the dogs about eight minutes spread over a few days to learn the names of the toys. When asked, the dogs could then fetch the correct toy from a pile of 11 with 80% accuracy.
In the second test, the scientists asked the dogs’ owners to talk about two other new toys with family members, repeating the toy names (e. g., “This is your armadillo”) without looking at or addressing the dogs. Days later, when asked to fetch these new toys, the dogs succeeded 100% of the time. In contrast, 10 non-gifted Border Collies failed to learn from the conversations.
This ability to learn by overhearing is similar to that of 18-month-old children. Researchers are still unsure why some dogs have this skill, as gifted word learners are extremely rare. Dr. Dror notes, “We’re always searching for more dogs to study.”
28. What is the typical way for “gifted word learners” to learn toy names?
A. Overhearing family conversations.
B. Watching children learn new words.
C. Fetching toys from a pile of objects.
D. Doing interactive activities with owners.
29. What do we know about the first test in the study?
A. It used overheard talk.
B. It achieved perfect accuracy.
C. It involved direct teaching.
D. It took eight minutes at a time.
30. What is Dr. Dror’s attitude towards finding more gifted word learners?
A. Cautious. B. Positive. C. Dismissive. D. Indifferent.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Train Your Dog to Learn Words by Heart
B. Border Collies: The Smartest Dog Species?
C. Brainy Dogs Learn Words by Listening In
D. Gifted and Normal Dogs: Are There Differences?
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了一项新研究发现:部分被称为“天才词汇学习者”的狗狗能通过偷听人们对话学会新玩具的名字,而大多数狗狗不具备这种能力,该能力与18个月大的儿童相似。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“These dogs typically learn during play or training sessions with their owners, but some owners noticed their dogs responding to toy names overheard in daily conversations. (这些狗狗通常是在和主人玩耍或训练的过程中学习的,但一些主人注意到他们的狗狗会对日常对话中听到的玩具名字做出反应。)”可知,“天才词汇学习者”狗狗学习玩具名字的典型方式是和主人一起进行互动玩耍或训练活动。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“First, the scientists had owners teach the dogs two new toy names in the usual way — by talking directly to the dogs about the toy. (首先,科学家让主人用常规方式教狗狗两个新玩具的名字——直接和狗狗谈论这个玩具。)”可知,研究的第一项测试采用了主人直接教狗狗的方式。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr. Dror notes, “We’re always searching for more dogs to study.” (Dror博士指出:“我们一直在寻找更多可以研究的狗狗。”)”可推知,Dr. Dror对寻找更多“天才词汇学习者”狗狗持积极态度。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Now, a recent study shows that these dogs can even learn the names of new toys just by listening in while people talk about the toys — a skill that young children have, but most dogs do not. (现在,一项最新研究表明,这些狗狗甚至可以仅仅通过偷听人们谈论玩具,就能学会新玩具的名字——这是幼儿具备但大多数狗狗不具备的一项技能。)”可知,文章主要介绍了部分聪明的狗狗能通过偷听人们对话学会新单词;C选项“Brainy Dogs Learn Words by Listening In (聪明狗狗靠偷听学会单词)”精准概括了全文大意。
D
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons — for example, economic reasons — why they should be preserved. So, let us assume (假设) that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not affect its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people’s feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.
32. What does the author say about historical buildings in Paragraph 1?
A. Some of them are not attractive.
B. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings.
D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
33. Which of the following is true according to the author?
A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B. In no way should buildings affect the surroundings.
C. Some old buildings have ruined the area they are in.
D. Nobody knows why people speak against new buildings.
34. By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means ________.
A. destroy old buildings B. put things in a different place
C. choose new architectural styles D. respect people’s feelings for historical buildings
35. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To explain why people dislike change.
B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
D. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了现代建筑能否建在历史区域并阐述作者观点。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Not all historical buildings are attractive.(并不是所有的历史建筑都吸引人。)”可知,作者认为一些历史建筑并不吸引人。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too.(的确,有些新建筑破坏了它们所在的区域,但有些旧建筑也是如此。)”可知,作者认为有些旧建筑也破坏了它们所在的区域。故选C。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.(如果我们总是复制以前存在的东西,我们仍然会住在山洞里。因此,我反对复制以前的建筑风格,选择一些新鲜和不同的东西,即使这可能是更冒险的选择。)”可知,作者认为不能总是复制以前的建筑风格,要选择新鲜和不同的东西,也就是要选择新的建筑风格。由此可推测,“move things forward”意思是“选择新的建筑风格”。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?(那么,让我们假设历史建筑对大多数人来说既有吸引力又很重要。那么,如果需要一座新建筑,我们该怎么办?)”以及后文作者阐述的观点可知,作者在第一段提出在历史区域是否允许建造现代建筑的问题,第二段以家乡图尔为例说明现代风格可以与旧风格和谐共存,第三段指出反对新建建筑更多源于人们保守的心态,最后一段明确主张不应盲目复制旧风格,而应选择新颖、不同的设计。因此,文章的主要目的是论证现代建筑可以建在历史区域内。故选D。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One lovely weekend, my husband Max took me and our two-year-old daughter Ila for a picnic in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Also accompanying us was our ten-month-old Labrador (拉布拉多犬) D’Argo. He was a dog I picked up on a rainy night. Over the years, he had changed from a shy, frightened puppy into a gentle and loyal companion.
After our picnic, I safely fastened Ila into her car seat and waved D’Argo inside. But as I closed the door with a soft click, panic shot through me — D’Argo had accidentally stepped on the remote (遥控器), locking them both inside. Max hurried over, his face turning pale. “Where’s the key?” he asked anxiously. I pointed to the driver’s seat, where the only key, attached to the remote door lock control, was lying along with my purse.
April afternoons are warm, and the temperature inside a parked car rises quickly. In just a few minutes, Ila’s cheeks turned pink and sweaty. Her little hands held the seat belt tightly. D’Argo jumped restlessly from the front seat to the back, barking loudly as if he had been begging for help. “Let’s break it open!” Max said, prying (撬动) at the lock with a thick branch, but the door stayed shut. “It’s no use,” I whispered, heart sinking. “Call 911!”
Fifteen minutes later, the police car finally arrived. The officer tried to open the lock with a metal tool but failed. Soon, two more officers arrived, but they couldn’t unlock the door either.
Ila’s face was flushed and shiny. Drops of sweat rolled down her cheeks, and she started crying for me. I hit the window helplessly. Seeing this, D’Argo jumped to her side at once, rubbing his head against her small hand gently and licking her tears to make her feel better.
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。
The officers finally suggested breaking the front driver’s window to get them out.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I gratefully held D’Argo in my arms, and brushed the glass pieces off his body gently.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 The officers finally suggested breaking the front driver’s window to get them out. Hearing the danger, Max immediately stepped forward and carefully broke the window with a tool. As the glass cracked, something amazing happened. Instead of hiding, D’Argo pushed Ila aside with his body, trying his best to protect her from the broken glass. Then he stuck his head out, whining softly, clearly worried about Ila who was sitting beside him. The officers quickly reached in and pulled the frightened but unhurt little girl out, and then got D’Argo out safely.
I gratefully held D’Argo in my arms, and brushed the glass pieces off his body gently. Tears blurred my eyes as I hugged this warm and brave little dog tightly. Max and I were both deeply moved by his selfless act. At that moment, I truly realized that D’Argo was not just a pet, but a beloved member of our family. He had used his own way to protect our daughter when we were desperate, showing his unique and silent love for us. This experience left us with a deep and unforgettable memory.
